Deep Love Hidden From Him -
Chapter 243
Everleigh had known Christopher for so many years. Just by the look in his eyes, she knew that he must have had some bad ideas in his mind.
In order to prevent things from getting worse, she glared at him and took the initiative to hold Selena's hand. "He is just messing with you and he's never serious. Come on, let's go in."
Selena shook her hand away grumpily. "Why don't you cut the act? You and your husband are the perfect match then. How interesting."
After saying this, she lifted the hem of her dress and went into the hotel.
Abraham would usually say something whenever he saw Selena being rude, but he didn't mind it on this day. It was obvious that he wanted to see Christopher and even the Meyer family's true attitude towards Everleigh.
He was not someone who relied on his connections, and the other party's family was definitely not the most important condition for his daughter's marriage. So what if they were one of the Four Greatest Households of Ocpeace City? If they were not good to his daughter, the marriage would still not be approved.
The group of people entered the hotel, but no one noticed that after they entered, the lobby manager looked in the direction they left in and made a phone call.
"Mr. Jenkins, Miss Trevino and her family have just entered." "Yes, Miss Trevino's father and sister are both here."
At the other end of the line, was the VIP suite on the top floor of the hotel. The large room could overlook the night view of the whole Ocpeace City from the floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room. It was a great view.
Unfortunately, this suite was not open to the public, nor was it on the hotel's suite list. It was reserved all year round. Even the staff members of the hotel did not know who lived in it.
At this moment, on the sofa of the suite's living room, the man was holding a cigar in one hand. After hanging up the phone, he flicked the cigar ash into the crystal ashtray. "Sir, are you going to have a look?"
The butler's voice came from the side. Obviously, he was a little worried as he frowned.
The man looked calm. "Haven't you investigated the Meyer family's situation very clearly already? What difference would it make if I take a look myself?"
"That's true, but after all, Miss Trevino is already married. If Madam replaces out that she is being treated poorly, she'll be in great pain. It was not easy for her to replace Miss Trevino."
"I am not worried about the Meyer family. I am worried about..."
The man thought of something and his brows twitched violently. His indifferent eyes revealed a hint of coldness.
The butler knew what he was thinking. "Are you worried about the Godfrey family?"
The man didn't answer, but his slightly gloomy face had already explained everything.
The butler continued, "The Godfrey family's banquet is also being held at our hotel tonight. We are not sure if it's just a coincidence that their private room is facing the Meyer family as well." "How could it be a coincidence? Madam
Scott is a wise woman after all."
When it came to the Godfrey family, there was always nothing good to say about the men in their family. The only good thing was Helen's love for Everleigh. It could be said that she loved her very much. The butler asked, "Sir, since you are so worried, why didn't you confess your identity to Miss Trevino earlier? If you bring her back, won't everything be settled then? Who would dare to bully the Young Madam of the Jenkins family?"
"It's easy to dodge a spear in the open, but it's hard to avoid an arrow in the dark." The man pondered for a moment. "Let's send someone to keep an eye on it. Things in the Godfrey family aren't that simple." Hearing that, the butler did not have anything else to say. He nodded in agreement.
At this time downstairs, people on both sides of the private rooms had already sat down.
Although the private rooms were opposite each other, there was a spacious corridor in the middle with screens as a partition. As long as they didn't go out and meet face-to-face, no one would know who was on the opposite side.
After Everleigh took her seat, they introduced each other.
Christopher's mother explained, "My eldest daughter is abroad all year round and has a special case to attend to. She can't come back for the time being. I must apologize to you on this matter. I'm very sorry." Abraham had initially thought that the Meyer family would have some sense of superiority, but he didn't expect them to be so humble. They even apologized because of such a small matter. "It's understandable, so it's alright. We'll definitely have a chance to meet in the future."
"Of course. My eldest daughter will definitely be back for Everleigh and Christopher's wedding. By then, all the relatives and elders of the Meyer family will be present. Speaking of this, Christopher's aunt asked me a few days ago. She asked when their wedding will be held. We are afraid that you will think that our family doesn't know the etiquette if we keep delaying things."
It was not the Meyer family's decision to keep their marriage a secret. Their attitude was obviously very warm.
Hearing this, Abraham gave Everleigh a meaningful look and said, "If you had told me earlier, I would have agreed. Christopher seems young and promising as well."
Guilty, Everleigh avoided his gaze and lowered her head as she ate.
"Huh, what's so promising about him? He doesn't do anything proper all day. I think it's time for him to quit his job and concentrate on taking care of Everleigh and the two children at home," Samuel said. "I've said this long ago, but Everleigh doesn't agree," Felicia added.
Samuel also nodded in agreement.
Christopher cried bitterly, "I've really lost my human rights."
As he complained bitterly, he didn't forget to feed Adrienne, who was next to him.
Seeing this scene, Abraham, who was initially still unsure, calmed down a lot.
His thinking was of the older generation. In a marriage, nothing was more important than having reasonable in- laws. Sometimes, a good in-law was even more important than the husband. Moreover, Christopher did not seem to be as bad as he was rumored to be.
During this happy occasion, the only person who felt uncomfortable was Selena.
At first, she thought that the Meyer family was just pretending to be polite to Everleigh. She had given birth to two children who had nothing to do with them. If she could even enter the Meyer family's doors, the threshold would be too low for them.
However, things went contrary to her wishes. The Meyer family treated Alastair and Adrienne as their own family members. Not to mention Christopher, even the two elders of the Meyer family doted on them very much.
During the meal, Felicia, the indifferent daughter of the Meyer Family even took off her watch and gave it to Adrienne as a toy just because she said that the watch looked nice.
It was a watch worth millions of dollars and it was a limited edition one. Selena could not afford it even if she wanted to. Seeing this, she gasped.
"I'm going to the bathroom." After saying this, Selena went out with a gloomy face.
Everleigh glanced at Abraham and said in a low voice, "I'll go and check on her."
Although her younger sister had been giving her a hard time ever since she returned to the country and she had always spoken in a harsh tone, she was, after all, her biological family who she grew up with. "Selena." Everleigh called out to her in the corridor. "Are you leaving?"
When she went out, she was carrying her bag. Obviously, she didn't intend to go back after going to the bathroom.
"Do you still want me to watch you show off?" Selena turned around with her bag on her back and looked at her coldly. She did not conceal her jealousy at all. "Everleigh, do you think that you are really capable?"
"What do you mean?"
Selena snorted. "No matter what happens, nothing can knock you down. You have always had the advantage to climb to the top without any effort. Then, you would laugh at ordinary people like us." "Why would I laugh at you? Selena, don't forget that we are a family. You are my sister!"
"I've never had a sister!"
Everleigh was shocked all of a sudden.
