Deep Love Hidden From Him

Chapter 595

Missha nodded. There were some emotions in her eyes, which was seen by Everleigh, but she didn't understand what it meant. It was an emotion she couldn't describe.

After dinner, Missha went back to the Jenkins family home. At night, she invited Everleigh to come over, and she agreed.

When they walked out of the restaurant, they saw Theodore. "Why are you here?" Everleigh asked.

"I went to the hospital to look for you. The nurse told me that you went out for lunch, so I came here to look for you." His cold voice was filled with a hint of indulgence. It was as if he knew the places she liked.

Everleigh smiled slightly and did not say anything.

They were not in a hurry to go back to the hospital. Instead, they decided to walk back because she had eaten too much at noon and wanted to burn off some of the food. She suddenly asked, "Have you had lunch?"

"I've eaten. I'm here to tell you something," he said in a serious tone.

She frowned and thought, "What's wrong with him? Why does he look so serious?"

"There was a problem with the project given to me by Alastair and Leon. That person has already run off with the funds. Although I have reported the matter to the police, it's useless. This money is long gone."

"Was it the project you had found?" She asked.

He shook his head and stopped in front of her. His eyes were filled with anger. Seeing this, she couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong with you?"

"It's the Allen family. The person in charge of the project is the Allen family. I originally handed it over to a company subordinate, but the Allen family set it up. On the one hand, it was to take revenge on the Trevino family. Secondly, they wanted Leon to know that he is nothing without them."

Hearing this, Everleigh thought of what her father said when he talked to her that day. He might have known that there was something wrong with the project, so he talked to her beforehand and used the excuse that he did not have enough working capital because he was worried the project could not carry on.

"Then what should we do now?"

"I already have evidence that it's the Allen family's doings. Maybe we can recover some of our losses. In the end, it's partly my fault. I didn't pay too much attention to the staff members," Theodore said in a cold tone. He was putting the blame on himself.

"Let's not tell them about this matter for the time being. Let's wait until it's resolved."

"It's too late. Alastair already knows," he said in a low voice. He then laughed bitterly, "I don't even know if it's a good thing for a child to be so smart. He reacted so quickly that even I, as his father, feel like I've failed."

"We all wish for the success of our children. They are all promising, but you are being so careful. What on earth are you thinking?" She couldn't guess his thoughts.

He turned and looked at her with a smile. "In the past, you would've been concerned about the matters of the Trevino family. How can you criticize me right now? Everleigh, did you come up with a solution?"

She was at a loss for words. He was testing her.

Since he wanted to know, he could just ask her directly. Was there a need to beat around the bush?

"I gave Dad a million dollars today."

"I knew it. In the past, you would've been flustered," Theodore said with a chuckle.

Everleigh was speechless. She couldn't keep up with this man's thinking. Yet, he was so confident that she would make a move.

In the evening, she went to the Jenkins family home alone. Theodore wanted to go with her, but she refused because she wanted him to conduct a thorough investigation of the issue involving Leon.

He knew that she was angry, and he couldn't do anything about it. He might as well wait for the results of the investigation before apologizing to her.

In the Jenkins family home, when Everleigh arrived, she saw Cynthia sitting on the sofa chatting with Missha. She was even more relieved that she hadn't asked Theodore to come over. If it was only Saniogo and Alexander, she would have agreed to let him come, but unfortunately, with Cynthia around, they would naturally end up in chaos.

Alexander was sitting on the other side of the sofa, holding his phone, with a faint smile on his face. She immediately knew what was going on without asking.

He must be chatting with Cecil. Otherwise, according to his character, he would not be smiling like an idiot. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

"Aunt Missha. Alexander," Everleigh entered the door and called out to them with a smile.

"You're here. Come and sit down. Your uncle will be back soon, and well have a meal right away."

"Okay." Everleigh didn't mind. Sitting beside Alexander, she glanced at his phone, which showed a text sent by Cecil. She was asking him to go away.

He quickly put down his phone and looked at Everleigh.

"Alexander, where is Cecil?"

"The Hayes family is having their own family dinner. Therefore, she couldn't come." He rolled his eyes at her.

He wouldn't believe that she didn't know.

Cynthia saw the two of them chatting so happily, and she couldn't help but roll her eyes. "Are you here to chat or to welcome your aunt home?"

"Cynthia, don't be so estranged from the family." Missha couldn't help but say. They had a good relationship, and it was also a good thing. Was it necessary to make a mess?

Everleigh and Alexander both fell silent. Neither of them had any good feelings towards Cynthia. They had always been like this.

At that moment, Saniogo came back, and he saw Everleigh as soon as he entered the door. He chuckled and said, "You're here? Why didn't you tell me? I'll ask someone to prepare some dishes for you."

"I came here because I don't need to be on duty tonight. Where have you been, Uncle Saniogo?" Looking at his slightly blushing cheeks, Everleigh knew what was going on without asking.

"I was having a few drinks with my friends. I didn't know you were coming either, or I would've been waiting for you at home," he replied with a smile.

Hearing this, she felt warm in her heart. She knew that her uncle really cared about her, and she would remember this forever in her heart.

Saniogo went to the kitchen and asked the servants to add another two of Everleigh's favorite dishes to that night's menu.

Cynthia was even more unhappy to see him like this. "Uncle Saniogo, this isn't the first time she's been here. Is there a need to treat her like this?"

"She rarely comes back, so it's important to have a great meal." He knew what she meant. He had to admit that he felt guilty towards Everleigh as well. Now that they were back at home, he wished that they could all be more comfortable.

Missha understood what her brother meant and sighed, "Cynthia, don't say such things. You grew up in the Jenkins family, so you have enjoyed all kinds of good things, but it's different for

Everleigh."

When Everleigh heard what she said, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Her words made her feel like she was from the suburbs and had not experienced much of the big world.

However, she understood that Saniogo's words had hinted at his biases towards her. It would embarrass Cynthia even more if she spoke up.

Cynthia was furious. She sat on the sofa and looked at Everleigh fiercely. She did not mind and even smiled at her, which made Cynthia go wild.

To her, Everleigh was getting all the attention.

Missha sat on one side and looked at Cynthia's exasperated look. Her eyes flashed, but soon, it disappeared.

At the dinner table, Cynthia ate a few mouthfuls, then went back to her room.

Missha shook her head helplessly. "Why is this child still like this?"

"It's Yeezoo's fault for not knowing how to educate his child. Don't worry about it."
