Only then did Christopher realize who the caller was. He turned on the light in a daze, and soon, the doctor's room was lit up.

"I'm in the doctor's duty room. Bring some wine if you plan to swing by."

"Wait for me," Stainley said with a wry smile. He understood why Christopher was so welcomed by others, as his personality and attitude was very likeable. Everleigh was on duty, and Theodore was with her until dawn broke, then the two of them left together and asked Moses to come pick them up.

When she returned home, she saw Leon seated on the sofa with Abraham by his side discussing something.

She had almost forgotten that Leon was still in the Trevino family home.

"Dad."

"You're back. Go catch up on your rest." Abraham saw her dark circles and knew that she had been on duty the whole night.

She glanced at Leon and went upstairs to get some sleep

Theodore, on the other hand, headed straight for the company. Unlike Everleigh, he wasn't the type of person who could easily rest his eyes.

Everleigh woke up in the afternoon. The first thing she did was to check her phone. Saniogo had given her a call. She did not answer but realized that she had received a message from Alexander. He wanted her to make a trip to the Jenkins family home.

Everleigh knew that she had not visited the Jenkins family in a long time.

It was high time to pay them a visit.

When she went downstairs, she saw Leon sitting in the living room, playing games with his phone. The image of a rich playboy was perfectly portrayed by him.

"The Allen family is looking for you." Everleigh took a seat on the sofa and gazed at his handsome face. She could vaguely make out his resemblance to Theodore.

Seeing that Everleigh had woken up, Hilda immediately served the sandwiches from the kitchen and said, "Miss Everleigh, Master Trevino requested you to have a bite when you wake up." "Thanks a lot, Hilda."

Hilda smiled and turned away to settle her remaining tasks on hand.

Everleigh's stomach felt more comfortable as she filled it with the sandwich.

"Whatever. If he doesn't allow Selena to marry me, he will lose his son," Leon said without a single care in his mind.

It seemed that everything revolving around the Allen family had nothing to do with him.

"Leon, are you really that smitten with Selena?"

"Heck yeah. I admit that I'm a playboy, but I won't hurt Selena. I like her from the bottom of my heart." Leon's hands stopped tapping, and his eyes were glinting, a testament to his relentless, goalachieving pursuit.

Everleigh's eyes dimmed slightly and she didn't continue the conversation.

After finishing her meal, she grabbed her bag and left.

"Where are you going?" Leon asked in confusion. "Shouldn't you rest longer?"

She replied, "I'm going to the Jenkins family home."

"Be careful on your way." He was not in the right moment to see her off.

However, he prepared something for Selena's room. After all, it was common to give women a little surprise occasionally.

Everleigh arrived at the Jenkins family home. Missha, Saniogo, and Alexander were all at home. However, Annie was nowhere to be seen.

"Uncle, what do you need me for?"

"Everleigh, you're here. Come here quickly." Saniogo waved his hand and motioned for her to sit next to him.

She walked over, not knowing what was going on. She looked at the three of them with much curiosity.

They all returned her gaze with equal weight.

"Everleigh, I know about the relationship between the Godfrey family and the Meyer family, but I heard that there are some issues in Theodore's company, isn't it?" Missha asked. Everleigh's face froze. "I'm sorry?"

"Don't you know?"

She shook her head. She really had not the slightest inkling what Missha was talking about.

Maybe Theodore didn't intend to tell her at all.

"Relax, alright. I'm just concerned about you. However, from the looks of Theodore, he seems to have everything under control." Alexander was not nervous at all.

Theodore was able to establish his company in a short period of time, proving that he had more tricks up his sleeves.

They were overthinking things.

After hearing this, Everleigh gave a sigh of relief. "He'll be fine."

"That's good to hear. You haven't visited us recently. I asked you to come over because your aunt will be leaving tomorrow." Saniogo had also wanted to meet with her. Everleigh was the kind of person who would focus her attention on her task while her health took a backseat. It had only been a short while, and she seemed to have lost some weight.

When she heard that Missha was leaving, she was very surprised. "Aren't you..."

"No, Cynthia has created a lot of troubles in the company. I have to go there to have a look. I will return if I have time." Anger washed over Missha when she brought up the conversation. She wanted to train Cynthia, but the girl always managed to let her down.

Even the simplest things were not properly handled.

"What happened to Cynthia?"

"She offended all of the partners from the company abroad," Saniogo replied.

It should have been a no-brainer to see that the partners in question bore high capabilities and

potential.

Missha helplessly rubbed her forehead. "Saniogo is right. There's no need to judge; never mind Welment, even the highly educated ones can't get the job done. Their capabilities are far behind compared with Everleigh."

Cynthia didn't have good vision. She always felt that she had a strong pillar of support, but she didn't think much about the capabilities of the support she received.

Everleigh did not answer. She and Cynthia were almost the same type of person, both newbies in business. The only advantage was that she had a decent grasp of her field.

"Everleigh, it seems that I can only rely on you." Missha held her hand with hope.

Everleigh was in a dilemma. She really didn't want to get involved in this matter.

She reckoned that her capabilities were not as good as Cynthia in the business industry.

"Aunt Missha, you've put me in such a difficult position."

"Not at all. Alexander has a lot on his plate, and we can't let him manage the tasks abroad now as well, can we? Besides, Linggon may not be fully qualified." Missha had everything planned out. Alexander and Saniogo fully agreed with her.

As long as it was in the hands of a child from the Jenkins family, no one would have any objections. Alexander would also prefer to have Everleigh take over rather than entrusting such matters to Cynthia and Linggon.

"But Aunt Missha, I don't have much experience under my belt in doing business." Everleigh thought it would be better to make her intention clear.

"Everleigh, take your time to learn. I can still work for a few more years. Don't worry. I'll help you as long as I'm here." Missha patted her on the shoulder and encouraged her, at the same time giving her hope. Everleigh really wanted to turn down the offer.

"Actually, I..."

"Forget it, it's too early to talk about this. You should stay abroad for a few more years." Saniogo also knew that Everleigh wouldn't be interested in doing business, but he still held a lot of expectations for her. "Stay here for the night. I'll be leaving tomorrow." Missha changed the subject because she didn't want Everleigh to dwell on this matter.

"Sure, okay."

"I'll pick up Alastair and Adrienne." Alexander had found a lot of good things recently, and he intended to give it to them. Moreover, he missed Alastair very much, and wanted to know how that kid was faring in managing Abraham's company.

"It's almost time."

"Okay, I will go pick them up," he said as he got up. Everleigh sent a message to Theodore asking him to come over to the Jenkins family home without picking up the children.

He replied instantly, "Okay."

When Missha heard that the children were coming, she personally went to buy some delicacies for them. "Aunt Missha, you don't have to go."
