The nurse was worried that Christopher would kill him if he continued, thus she hurriedly pulled him and said, "Dr. Meyer, I think you should go and have a look at Dr. Trevino first." When Christopher was done beating, he said to the nurse, "Call the police. Let's arrest this guy first."

"Alright."

After he left, no one noticed that someone had taken out a phone and dialed a number in the crowd.

Everleigh was sent to the operating room, but the main surgeon was Dr. Harrison instead.

He had just returned from giving a talk. When he heard that something had happened to Everleigh, he was so frightened that his legs almost couldn't support him anymore.

He hurriedly ran over to have a look. When he saw Everleigh who was covered with blood, he felt very sorry for her.

"Send her in at once. I'll operate on her personally," he said.

When the others heard that, they all felt relieved. With Dr. Harrison there, the danger level would decrease by a considerable amount.

That kind of incident wasn't that common, but it had still happened a few times before. However, Dr. Trevino was one individual who had experienced that kind of incident several times. She had encountered many things in her life.

The lights in the operating room lit up. When Stainley and Christopher went over, the operation had already started.

Therefore, they could only sit outside and wait.

They didn't go in because they were afraid. They were worried that Everleigh wouldn't come out of the operating room alive, thus they would rather wait outside and replace out what would happen. At that moment, Theodore was still in the middle of a meeting at the company. He had a gloomy expression on his face as he had a bad feeling in his heart.

Moses walked in hurriedly from the outside.

"Mr. Godfrey, something happened," he said in a panic.

"Let's talk about it after I'm done with the meeting," Theodore said with a displeased expression.

Moses glanced at the people in the conference room, hesitated for a moment, then walked to his side and whispered something.

A look of panic appeared in Theodore's deep eyes, "Are you sure?"

"Yes..." Before he could finish speaking, Theodore's figure flashed by, and he disappeared from the office.

The others looked at each other and seemed to be at a loss. They had never seen Mr. Godfrey act like that before.

"Mr. Lawson, Mr. Godfrey is..."

"The meeting will be postponed. Please wait for any updates and notices," Moses said with some concern. It seemed that the situation was quite serious this time.

Theodore immediately drove to the hospital and ran through all the red lights.

When he asked where Everleigh was, the nurse told him that she was in the operating room.

When he reached the entrance of the operating room, he saw Stainley and Christopher sitting on the bench with a worried look.

Theodore strode over to the front of Christopher. He pulled his collar and punched his face without any hesitation.

Christopher was punched before he could see who it was that punched him. When he noticed who it was, his anger was instantly ignited.

"Are you out of your f*cking mind?"

"That's right, I'm out of my mind. She's your wife. Why didn't you take good care of her? Why did you let her get attacked?" Theodore's cold face seemed very angry, and his eyes were filled with hatred. Why? Why couldn't he protect her since she was inside the hospital as well?

Hearing his words, Christopher felt very ironic. Who the hell was he to blame it on him?

He touched the corner of his lips and spat out a mouthful of blood. He then raised his hand and threw a punch at Theodore's face.

"What right do you have to blame me? She's your woman, your children's mother. You didn't even protect her well yourself, yet you are here causing a scene like a lunatic." Christopher's words shocked him, and the anger in his face vanished.

Stainley was sitting on the side and watching them coldly. He didn't plan to stop them from fighting either. At such a point in time, didn't they know what was more important? "What do you mean by that?" Theodore heard a different meaning from Christopher's words, but he wasn't sure.

He touched the corner of his lips and snorted, "Why did Everleigh fall in love with you? She must be blind. If you still don't realize it until now, then you don't even deserve to have her."

He recalled that during those seven years, what Everleigh had suffered through were all for naught; it really wasn't worth it.

Furthermore, she had even raised the two children with great difficulty.

Theodore's mind was shaken by the words 'you don't even deserve to have her'. What did he mean by that?

It was obvious that they were married, and they had already met each other's parents.

Could it be that they...

Christopher looked at the operating room with blank eyes, as if he had returned to seven years ago. His expression was cold, and his hoarse voice slowly sounded, "Theodore, why did you hurt Everleigh so cruelly? She once told me that you used to treat her very well and was considerate to her every time. With your status and identity, it doesn't seem like you would do all of those things. However, at that time when she needed you the most, you didn't trust her. Why didn't you pursue the matter to the end?"

Theodore's expression stiffened, and the regret in his heart swept over him like a tidal wave. Why didn't he pursue the matter to the end?

He was also thinking about that question.

However, even by thinking of the reason, he still couldn't change what had already happened.

He did not pursue the matter to the end because he was blinded by anger. It was solely because of his identity and status that he got very angry from her betrayal.

He didn't pursue the matter because of his own dignity.

Nevertheless, the moment he learned the truth, that dignity of his was really something ridiculous.

"In order to give birth to the children, she had a difficult birth. She even thought that if anything happened to her, she would send the children to you in order to prove that you really were in her heart. However, after she came back, she realized that she was wrong. She was extremely wrong. You were going to marry the woman who framed you two, and you even let her be threatened. She was even kidnapped! Theodore, I just want to ask you what you have done for her. Other than hurting her, what have you given her? Think about it." Christopher shouted the last few sentences in a hoarse voice.

The whole corridor almost trembled because of his voice.

Stainley, who was sitting aside, pursed his lips tightly and his eyes slightly sank. It seemed that the two's conversation had nothing to do with him. It was as if he was the only one who knew how painful his heart was.

Thinking about Everleigh's forced smile from before, he felt that it was still a very precious and rare sight.

It was better than being in there and not knowing whether she would be alive or dead.

Theodore lowered his gaze. The regret, pain, and his broken heart fell out along with the tears from his eyes. Christopher was right; other than making trouble for her, he didn't give her anything in return. "Theodore, her fake marriage with me was just to give the children a status," Christopher finally said in a cold tone.

Theodore suddenly turned around and grabbed his shoulder excitedly, "In other words, both of you have never..."

"That's right. Since our marriage is fake, we naturally don't live together, but what's the point of saying these things now? Both of you will never have any possibilities after today." Christopher raised his head and looked at him mockingly. However, in his heart, he felt exceptionally relieved. That man should know what it felt like to lose his lover.
