Deep Love Hidden From Him

Chapter 655

After Everleigh finished eating, she asked Hilda to clean up the guest room. Having had too much to drink, Alexander had become chatty, no longer retaining his former debonair character.

"Mr. Trevino, you'd better get a bigger house. Otherwise, if we come here, we won't have a room to stay."

Abraham laughed, "Sure, sure, in this case, I should change to a bigger one." He had had such a plan before, but then he shelved it because Everleigh had gone abroad and the house seemed more empty.

Now that everyone was together, it was high time to move to a bigger house.

The ladies helped their boyfriends to rest. On the other hand, Christopher insisted on staying and talking with Theodore.

The ladies couldn't resist, so they left the two men to chat with each other. The women then went downstairs to play cards.

Upon hearing the sound coming from downstairs, Theodore and Christopher opened their eyes.

"Go ahead, what do you want from me?" Theodore's face was red and his eyes were bloodshot. However, his tone remained cold as usual

Christopher sat up. He had to give it to him, Theodore was really perceptive. "Why else would I be looking for you? Lincoln just sent a message. Something is happening in Haviden City and he wants us to go there. I think it's best if Everleigh stays behind this time."

"Do you know who it is?"

"The surname's Godfrey, but Lincoln didn't go into detail." Christopher burped when he finished speaking, his breath reeking of alcohol. From NôvelDrama.Org.

When Theodore heard the surname Godfrey, his first thought was of Helen.

That day at the villa, he'd really seen Helen's figure. It was Everleigh who'd said his grandmother had died, and he'd seen how Helen had died.

"When do we go over?"

"Tomorrow. I'll go there with you then," Christopher said in a low voice. He thought about it and decided to go there himself.

Otherwise, Lincoln would not have much to say over there.

"Okay. Keep this from Everleigh." Theodore didn't want her to worry about him.

"I don't want her to know either. After all, this matter is still dangerous." Christopher did not know who the other party was and wanted to keep this matter under control.

Theodore shared his thoughts.

The next day, the group sat down for lunch. Theodore had to go out of town to handle his business, so he told Everleigh to take care of herself.

"Okay, will you drive there yourself?"

"Mm, Moses hasn't returned yet," he replied in a deep voice.

She didn't say anything, as it concerned his work.

Theodore and Christopher left together, but they didn't say anything along the way. Everleigh wondered why Christopher would ask for time off work for no reason.

Hence, she went to ask Erine, to which Erine replied that Felicia had asked him to do something and he would come back soon.

Everleigh realized that this was a Meyer family matter, so she didn't probe into it.

Theodore and Christopher arrived in Haviden City. Christopher looked at Lincoln. "How is it? Did Derick come out?"

"Now, this is a real bummer. This guy seems to be doing it on purpose. He didn't come out at all." Lincoln was worried that something might have happened to the other guy. He wanted to take a look, but Derick didn't come out at all this time.

"It's good that he's still here. Let's go in and pay him a visit," Christopher said.

A group of visitors came to the villa where there were many people milling about. As the people in the villa watched the newcomers, they all assumed vigilant expressions. "What are you doing?"

"Sir, we don't mean anything else, we just want to visit the owner of this place."

"Our master is not seeing anyone. Please see yourself out."

"Wait, we want to know what your master's last name is."

"Master's last name is Hughes. Sir, you have overstayed your welcome and we've done you the honor of not throwing you out. Please read the room," the butler stood in the middle and spoke harshly.

He graced them with no sign of politeness at all.

Theodore looked up at the balcony; the figure from before did not appear.

"Sir, we..." "Get out, or I'm going to call the police. You don't want to go to the police station, do you?" The butler lashed out.

Theodore wanted to say something else, but he was stopped by Christopher. "Let's leave first. These people obviously knew we were coming, so they had been waiting for us here."

Theodore gave the surroundings a once-over. Even if they were to make a move, their chances of winning were not high.

"Let's go. We'll talk afterwards." Lincoln tugged at Theodore, afraid he would act impulsively.

The three of them left it at that. A person then appeared on the balcony. When Theodore looked back, he too, caught a glimpse of the figure.

There was a light in his deep eyes as he became more certain in his mind who this person was.

In the villa, a middle-aged woman supported an old woman. "Madam, don't look anymore."

"If that was possible, I would really like to be with them, but alas..."

"Such a day will come."

"I don't know when," the old lady lamented that it had been so long.

The middle-aged woman sighed and didn't say anything.

She wanted the madam to return as soon as possible.

At this moment, Theodore returned to the hotel. Sitting on the sofa, he didn't say a word. Right at that moment, he didn't know what to do.

"Why aren't you saying something?" Christopher was a little anxious when he didn't say anything.

"I was thinking about..." Theodore didn't finish and immediately asked Christopher after remembering something, "You said that my grandmother is dead. Are you sure?"

Hearing his words, Christopher was taken by surprise. "What do you mean? Come on, would I have deceived you? Besides, didn't you see your grandmother's body?"

Theodore had seen it, which was why he was very suspicious.

"Yeah, I saw it all."

"You shouldn't think too much about it. A lot of people look like that figure when they get old." Christopher tried to persuade him.

Theodore remained silent.

In a low voice, Lincoln said, "What do we do now?"

"Let's keep an eye on them, but don't be so obvious. They know you're watching them too. Now that they know, Derick will catch wind of it as well. Naturally, he won't come out," Christopher explained.

Lincoln nodded. "This I know. I underestimated the people in that villa."

"How could someone so capable not know? However, it's good to know his last name. Let's keep checking his background." Christopher felt that this person must not be an easy negotiating target.

The only way was an indirect way.

"Let's go back."

"Alright."

"Wait, I found this while I was investigating. Look at this account. The people at the villa have investigated it." Lincoln had almost forgotten about it. He'd wanted to tell Christopher before, but then he forgot about it because of the villa incident.

Theodore brought it over and looked at it; the account number struck him as familiar.

"Do you know who the person is on this account?"

"I don't know, because I was watching Derick, so..." Lincoln had also stumbled upon the information by accident, and he did not carefully investigate the specific details.

"I'll take it from here. Thanks, Lincoln."

Lincoln smiled faintly. "Nah, don't mention it." He patted his shoulder.
