Deep Love Hidden From Him
Chapter 268

Alastair heard about it from Grandpa before he left the house. Grandpa seemed elated about it, so he thought that Everleigh would be glad to know about it as well. "I will go back after work." She was indeed very happy.

Theodore felt very uncomfortable as he watched them having a conversation while they completely ignored his existence.

Adrienne was very considerate, so she didn't forget about him. "Mommy, Daddy and I will go have something to eat, but I'll be back early tonight."

"Okay." She nodded in agreement.

Theodore reached out his hand to Adrienne and led her away. Before he left, his eyes were still fixed on her face and his eyes were burning with determination.

After they left, Stainley slowly said, "He often comes to you."

"No, he is only paying a visit to the kids." She didn't understand why Theodore turned up here either.

However, none of this had anything to do with her.

Stainley gazed at her thoughtfully and did not say anything else.

Over the following days, he was still very kind to her. He either bought her flowers or some other things.

Christopher didn't pay much attention at first, but he had no choice but to intervene. Was Stainley trying to ruin his image?

People would start thinking that his wife was cheating on him.

One afternoon, Stainley came up to Everleigh carrying lots of goodies in his hands. However, she looked at him apologetically, "Stainley, I am not hungry, you don't have to...."

"That's right. You make me look like a husband who doesn't care about his wife at all." Christopher walked in with a smile on his face.

She let out a sigh of relief when she saw him coming. His presence made her feel much better.

Stainley also noticed the change in her expression and he felt upset. "Am I of no importance to Everleigh at all?" He thought.

"So what did you bring?" Christopher opened the bag as he spoke. When he saw what Stainley had brought, he sighed helplessly. "Can't you be more creative? Last time she already mentioned that she had enough food already. Stainley, it is nice that you are observant, but you need to do better."

Stainley always knew that he was a straightforward person, so he was not offended at all. He still looked at her with a gentle expression. "She said that she will never get sick of this."

Then, Christopher turned his head and looked at Everleigh. He smiled and said, "We are going to meet my sister later so we won't be back in the afternoon. You'll have to put in some extra work here." He then grabbed Everleigh and her bag before they left.

Stainley was left behind, but he did not say anything.

The two of them arrived at the cafeteria and Christopher said to Everleigh while pouring a cup of tea, "What's with Stainley? He is being overly passionate about you."

"I also don't know what happened. It's a relief that you showed up, otherwise, I wouldn't even know how to refuse him."

"You can't run away from him all the time," he said thoughtfully before an idea suddenly popped up in his mind.

She had also deliberated this for a long time.

Then, they decided to go back after filling their stomachs. However, he told her before they left that he would handle Stainley. Everleigh felt bad for him as she seemed to be troubling him all this while.

"Go back on your own while I go handle some matters. Remember to take care." He knew exactly what's going on in her head; he even patted her head like she was his pet.

Everleigh slapped his hand off, "Don't touch my head like this."

"Hmph, stroking your head is nothing compared to stroking Adrienne's. You heartless woman." He snorted and walked in the opposite direction.

She chuckled a bit and waited until he was out of sight before she left.

She was about to get into her car when she heard a car speeding from behind. Before she could look back to see who it was, the car had already stopped before her. Then, Theodore walked out of the car and stood in front of her.

Before Everleigh could ask him why he was there, he grabbed her by the arm and started pulling her into his car.

"Theodore, what are you doing?"

"Get in," he said coldly. He shoved her into the

car and locked the doors. He then got in from the other side and drove off.

Everleigh was afraid when she saw that Theodore was obviously in a bad mood. "What do you want from me? What is it that we can't discuss here?"

Just as she finished speaking, he sped up again. She could not even see the outline of the cars that they were passing by from the window.

"Be careful." She looked at the huge car in front of them, and they nearly collided with it. Her heart was thumping quickly out of fear.

She turned and looked at his cold and hard expression, and she couldn't suppress her anger anymore. "What is wrong with you? Are you trying to kill the both of us? Have you already forgotten how you got into an accident?"

Alas, he ignored her words and continued to speed up.

"Well, then let's die together. Alastair and Adrienne will be orphans." Finally, Everleigh also lost her temper. This was an accident waiting to happen.

Theodore heard what she said and he then slowed down, but did not stop.

What was wrong with him? Why was he so angry when he saw Christopher messing around with Everleigh? He was crazed with jealousy when he witnessed how nice Stainley had been to her over the past few days. Why did those two men take what was rightfully his?

Everleigh belonged to him.

She was the mother of his children.

Then, Theodore brought her to a villa on the outskirts of the city. It could be seen that the place was newly built. Everleigh looked around and saw no traces of anyone. Plus the sun was setting, giving her the vibe that the place was completely isolated.

"Theodore, what exactly do you want to do?" She got out of the car, her face flushed with anger.

He pursed his lips and didn't say anything. He grabbed her hand and pulled her inside. She struggled, but it was in vain. She was dragged all the way into the villa.

When she entered the villa and saw the interior of the villa, she was shocked.

"This is..."

"Everything here is decorated to your liking. Did you forget what you once told me?" His voice was hoarse, but it wasn't hard to hear his yearning for the past.

She looked at the cool-colored decorations, her favorite chandelier hanging in the middle of the living room, and her favorite bar counter where she imagined herself relaxing while drinking a little bit of wine. However... These were all in the past. The Everleigh now did care about all of this.

"What's the use of saying that now?"

"Everleigh, let's start over, alright?" Theodore seemed to be answering her question and asking for her permission as well.

She was surprised, her pupils dilating in disbelief. Her throat felt like it was burning with pain, and she felt as if she were being strangled. "Do you know what you are talking about?"

"Of course. Everleigh, let's start anew, please?" He pleaded with her sincerely.
