Deep Love Hidden From Him
Chapter 296

Everleigh suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. It was hard to tell whether it was sweat or water from the wet handkerchief on her forehead.

Her face was still flushed, and her eyes were bloodshot.

Selena was a little worried. "Let's go to the hospital. You have a high fever now. The medicine doesn't work at all."

Everleigh did not speak. She did not dare to open her eyes. As soon as she opened her eyes, everything would start spinning. The dry corners of her lips were a little scarlet and she said in a hoarse voice, "Okay."

She entered the hospital in a daze. Before she fell asleep, she heard a voice coming from the door, but the noises from all directions were attacking her ears. Therefore, she couldn't sleep peacefully.

When she finally opened her eyes, a wave of a familiar scent hit her and she knew where she was.

"Are you feeling better?"

When she heard this voice, she was very familiar with it. She turned her head and saw that deep gaze.

"Theodore, why are you here?" She suddenly sat up, her eyes filled with shock.

When he saw how agitated she was, he couldn't help but feel bad for her.

"You've already slept for two whole days. I went to your house to look for you. I was told that you were hospitalized, thus I came over to visit. After all, it was my fault that you fell ill." His tone was sincere withou a hint of falseness.

She didn't speak. She didn't want to deny it either. If it wasn't for him, she wouldn't have been hospitalized.

"Where are my sister and father?"

"They've gone back. They'll come over later to see you. Alastair and Adrienne will come as well," he explained, his gaze still lingering on her face.

She wanted to go to the bathroom, but she couldn't tell him. Hence, she could only sit on the bed and fidget back and forth.

He noticed that she was acting a little strange. He looked at the medicine on the table and realized something. He stood up with a complicated expression on his cold face. "I'm going to buy you some of your favorite fruits."

"Okay." Everleigh agreed without hesitation. She really wished for him to disappear from there as soon as possible. After Theodore left, she took the IV drip bottle and went to the bathroom. She finally felt much more relaxed.

When Theodore came back, he had a lot of things in his hands, thus he put them aside. "How did you get them so quick?" She looked embarrassed. She had just sat down. He didn't say anything. Instead, he quietly peeled the apple for her.

Soon, the voices of Alastair and Adrienne came from the door, followed by Christopher's.

"Daddy, Mommy." As Adrienne's voice sounded, the awkward atmosphere subsided a lot.

Looking at Theodore, Christopher snorted and said, "Mr. Godfrey, aren't you busy? What are you doing here?"

"It's none of your business."

"You are with my wife, yet you are saying that it has nothing to do with me? Are you trying to make me a cuckold?" Christopher said rudely.

Everleigh heard the latter part of his words and glanced at him helplessly. He didn't know what he was talking about.

When did she ever want to make him a cuckold?

No, when did they have anything to do with each other? Even if they were a fake couple, there was no need to act to such an extent.

Theodore stopped peeling the apple in his hand. His eyes darkened as he looked in Everleigh's direction. For some reason, every time he heard the words that she was Christopher's wife, he would inexplicably burst into a rage.

It was obvious that they were faking the marriage, thus why did everyone say that?

"Did you two come here just to fight?" She asked in a cold voice.

She was blaming Christopher in her eyes.

He acted as if he didn't notice it. He took out the fruits he had bought and gave it to Alastair. He didn't eat Theodore's food.

Adrienne and Alastair felt that there was something wrong with the atmosphere, and they did not dare to speak.

Christopher reached out and touched Everleigh's forehead. Noticing that her temperature was getting lower, he also breathed a sigh of relief. "What happened to you? Why did you suddenly have such a high fever?"

Facing his question, she felt inexplicably anxious. She couldn't just say that she got sick because she went out with Theodore, right?

"Why aren't you saying anything?"

"It was because she went out with Daddy, and she had a fever when she came back." Alastair's tender voice sounded, full of iciness. Christopher was flustered and looked at her subconsciously.

She also looked at him helplessly.

"Did he take you out? And he didn't even take good care of you?" He pointed at Theodore. Although his tone was filled with anger, it wasn't directed at Everleigh, but at Theodore.

According to her character, she would not take the initiative to go to him.

How could Theodore not understand his words? He put down the knife in his hand with his gaze deep. "I'm here to apologize. I'll compensate for all of Everleigh's losses. I've already told Abraham everything, thus there's no need for you to accuse me of this anymore."

"You are still so self-righteous. Don't you know your own identity?"

"My identity is that of the children's father." Theodore's words were loud and forceful, leaving Christopher speechless.

His words were stuck in his throat. He couldn't say anything, and he almost choked on his words.

Theodore looked down at Everleigh, who still didn't look very well. His cool voice slowly rang out, "I can rest assured now that your fever has subsided. I'll come and see you again tomorrow."

"No..." Before she could finish her sentence, he had already left the ward.

However, Adrienne shouted at the door, "Goodbye, Daddy. Remember to bring something delicious tomorrow."

"Alright, Adrienne, just wait for me." Theodore turned around and looked at her dotingly. He adored his daughter very much. It wasn't that he didn't like his son, but he felt that his son was being very distant with him.

He wouldn't be able to get close to him even if he wanted to.

Christopher frowned. It wasn't that Adrienne wasn't allowed to stay in touch with him. It was just that things with Theodore were a little complicated.

"Didn't you bring me food? Give it to me. I'm so hungry."

"Do you even have the appetite?"

"I haven't eaten for two days. Do you know how I feel now? I'm famished to the point that I'm hallucinating," Everleigh said while gesturing.

Christopher snorted coldly and gave the food in his hands to her. She didn't even know what was good for her. Didn't she know to stay away from Theodore as soon as she saw him? "Look at what happened now. Do you know what you did wrong?"

After Theodore came out, he called Leon and severely scolded him. Leon was also suffering at that moment. Looking at his aunt sitting opposite of him, he didn't know what to say. Madison, who was sitting opposite him, had heard Theodore's words very clearly, and she was also very angry.

"Get the hell over here now," she shouted.

Theodore froze for a moment. His eyes turned cold as he pursed his thin lips tightly and hung up the phone. He sped up and drove back to the place where Madison was currently staying. When Theodore arrived, he saw Leon sitting on the sofa like an obedient dog. He didn't even dare to breathe. When he saw Theodore, his first reaction was that he had been rescued. Madison looked at his figure and walked over in exasperation. She did not look like a noble lady at all.

"You went to meet Everleigh, haven't you? Are you trying to anger me to death?"
