Deep Love Hidden From Him

Chapter 566

With the new medicine in her hand, Everleigh injected it into Xavier's body. Theodore was watching from the side. Seeing that he didn't have much of a reaction, his heart felt slightly more at ease.

A day had passed, and she had been observing Xavier's heart. Benedict heard about it and came to visit. Xavier's identity was one of the reasons, and Everleigh's new medicine was the other.

"Everleigh, what is the situation now?" Benedict asked.

She studied the data in her hand and said, expressionless, "It seems that there is no reaction at this moment. We'll know more after the next injection."

"Everleigh, you're now the center of attention in the hospital. You have to crank up your efforts." He had great expectations for her.

She smiled helplessly. "Mr. Lawson, don't expect too much from me."

"At least you're the first person in the hospital to succeed in medical research." Benedict didn't want to burden her with expectations, but she was the only doctor who succeeded so far. Most of the people involved in medical research were mainly in their old age. Only a few youngsters had participated.

"I'll tell you when the new data is out." She snapped the notebook shut. She didn't care about the results. Her only wish at that moment was that Xavier was fine.

When Madison came over, she saw that Xavier's complexion had recovered rapidly. His eyes were tightly shut, as if he was sleeping.

Everleigh came over after having her meal. Seeing Madison sitting on the bed, she hesitated for a moment and decided to walk away.

She was not afraid of her, but there was no need to confront her face-to-face, especially when she was in Xavier's ward. The most important thing for him was to rest.

Christopher watched her return and asked curiously, "Did the examination finish so soon?"

"Madison's in the ward. I don't want to quarrel with her," she said helplessly.

He nodded and had a sudden thought. "Speaking of which, the person I dispatched for the investigation has dropped me a message about Derick's whereabouts."

She was shocked. After all the things that had happened during this time, it had slipped her

mind.

"Really? Where is he now?"

"He is around the area of Haviden City. I've gotten people to continue the search."

She frowned slightly. "Haviden City, isn't that..."

"Everleigh, you should be prepared. Even if we find him, I don't think he will tell us the truth." He was concerned that even if they had found Derick, they wouldn't be able to wring the truth out of him, which was the most annoying thing.

She shook her head; this possibility was not very high.

"Wilson is also looking for him. His purpose of finding him is to kill him. Say, who would he choose to believe in?"

"I'm afraid that Derick is an idiot."

"Is he really an idiot, though? Would it cross an idiot's mind that Wilson is out to kill him? Would he run away and stay under the radar till now?" Everleigh refuted Christopher's words.

He was a smart man, otherwise he wouldn't have figured out that Sanchez's death had something to do with Wilson.

But why was he in Haviden City?

Christopher didn't know how to respond to her rebuttal. Her words were reasonable.

In the evening, Everleigh arrived at Xavier's ward. At the same time, Theodore was also there. He was worried about his brother's situation.

"How long has he slept?"

"It's been a day. I mean, the effect of this medicine is to sleep." Everleigh seriously doubted whether she had given him an overdose.

Why would Xavier sleep like a log?

She didn't inject any other medicine either. She continued to observe the situation. It was past eleven at night when Xavier was finally roused, but his entire body felt sore.

"How do you feel now?" When Everleigh saw that he had woken up, she asked in a hurry.

"I don't feel anything special with my heart. It's just that I feel a little sore in my four limbs," he said as he tried to explain his condition.

Hearing this, she showed a slight smile in her eyes and said, "It seems like I've given you too much of the medicine. I'll reduce it for you tomorrow."

She had been worried that the effect of the drug would fail, so she'd added another pill.

She didn't expect that it would turn out to be counter-productive.

Xavier smiled and didn't say a word.

So long as he could recover, more dosage meant more dosage then.

The next day, Everleigh yawned on her way to the office. She put on a white coat and went to examine Xavier's situation.

Before she left the office, she saw the bedraggled Elvir. He looked much thinner than before, and his hair was unkempt.

"Elvir, what's with this fashion?" She was stunned.

He smirked and she could see his bloodshot eyes. He said hoarsely, "I have been investigating recently and haven't told you anything, so here I am here, to tell you the truth."

She thought about it carefully. It seemed that she hadn't seen him for a long time. "Have a seat, I'll pour you a glass of water."

"Okay." He instinctively took out a cigarette from his pocket. Still, when he realized that he was in the hospital, he put the cigarette back as she gave him a glass of water.

He drank it in one gulp.

"Hey, is there anything to eat?" He was so hungry that he could not hold on any longer.

She took out a loaf of bread from her desk and handed it to Elvir. He didn't hesitate and began to eat.

Worrying that he might be choked, she poured him another glass of water as he devoured the bread in a few minutes.

"Thanks," Elvir said to her, his speech incoherent.

After a long time, he said slowly, "I'm sorry, Miss Trevino. I didn't get any results from the previous investigation. This time I came here because..."

"I've found it. I sent someone to look for an old man by the surname White, but I haven't been updated with any clues yet. It's better to give it to you," Everleigh said as she rose to her feet and handed him the envelope on the desk.

In her heart, if it hadn't been for this letter, she would have been wary of Elvir. However, when she saw this news, her wariness had vanished.

For so many years, he had persisted in his effort just to prove Saniogo's innocence, for he was worried that he wouldn't be able to give her closure.

All of this was his efforts, and she could not deny it.

What's more, Saniogo's case needed evidence to prove his innocence.

"This is?" Elvir was stunned. Why hadn't he found this out before?

"I found this after you left. Speaking of it, your choice of clothing can't paint the picture of credibility at all. You look broke at first glance. My people are all noble." Everleigh wasn't meaning to belittle him, but money did talk for a great many things in the world.

He looked at his outfit: it seemed that it was true.

"How can you be sure of the authenticity of this letter?"

"I have had it verified, and it really has a history of more than a decade. I think you are an expert in this, and you are the most suitable one to deal with it." She smiled lightly, and the trust in her eyes made him feel a little touched.

"Miss Trevino, thank you very much for your trust, but aren't you a little suspicious of your uncle?"

"There is indeed suspicion. Well, aren't you proving that all this has nothing to do with him?" She asked.
