Chapter 688
Everleigh returned to work in the hospital and was busy as usual.
Christopher and Erine's relationship had improved a lot, but the only problem was that her father would come to the hospital frequently.
He could not bear it anymore. He almost lost his temper several times but was stopped by Everleigh.
In the end, that was his future father- in- law. It would be terrible if he had offended him.
Christopher said to Erine, "I have sacrificed a lot for you."
"I know." She was helpless. No matter what, he was her father. Even with his faults, he was the one who had given her life.
However, that did not seem to be the case at all.
"Don't worry. The status of the Meyer family is above the Harrison family. Besides, do you think the people in the Harrison family are all fools? Is he trying to pick a fight?" Everleigh explained.
Christopher and Erine both understood this, but the people of the Harrison family were persistent and annoying.
"We understand, but the members of the Harrison family don't. All I can hope for is that they would leave me alone."
He was praying for the same thing as well.
Otherwise, he was not sure what he would do.
Everleigh sat in Theodore's car at night and was sleepy. "I'll give you a massage later."
"Alright."
"I have a contract negotiation tomorrow. I can't pick you up."
She nodded as she understood that he was busy.
"Who's the other party?"
"It's a small company, but it's doing well. I'll go and take a look." He had investigated it before, but he would only know the details upon meeting up.
"Alright."
The next day, Theodore went to see the other party. When that person entered the room, he felt a sense of familiarity.
That person was none other than Revainge.
"Hello, Mr. Godfrey."
"And you are?" "l apologize for having you rush here."
Theodore did not say anything. Instead, he just observed Revainge's actions. For some reason, he looked like Wilson.
However, when he looked at him from afar, it felt different.
"I'm here to tell you on behalf of the Baker family that they will not cooperate with you on this project."
Theodore frowned slightly and looked at him in puzzlement. "If you have something to say, just say it."
"I have nothing to say. I am just a messenger. Although your company is on the right track, it is not doing as well as my company."
Theodore sneered and kept quiet. It was obvious that he was here to cause trouble, but he had not offended this person, right?
"Mr. Godfrey, please don't think that I'm here to provoke you. I'm just telling you that it's normal in business. Competition is a form of motivation, isn't it?"
Theodore tidied up his clothes and chuckled lightly. "Since you've already said so, there's nothing else to say." With that, he stood up and left.
Revainge did not say a word as he watched
Theodore leave.
Theodore's heart was filled with rage when he got into the car. The Baker family actually dared to treat him like a fool. They'd better wait and see.
In the evening, Everleigh was surprised to see him picking her up.
"Didn't you say that you have to attend a contract negotiation?"
"I had gone there but the negotiation failed," he said expressionlessly.
She was a little surprised, but she did not say anything. She decided to let it be.
Neither of them spoke a word along the way.
In the following days, all the projects that he was supposed to negotiate had been taken away by someone else. When he saw who it was, he was stunned.
"Mr. Godfrey, I've tried investigating. It's someone from the Folks family," Moses reported truthfully.
"Who is this person?"
"I don't know. I am still investigating, but this company used to be a small one. Many people didn't pay attention to it. For some reason, it expanded quickly in a short period of time," Moses gave a brief explanation.
Theodore's face turned ashen, but he did not say anything.
"Mr. Godfrey, now..." Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
"This person is not an ally. If there are things that need to be done, just do it. There's no need to hold back," Theodore ordered coldly. Since this person had decided to go against him, there was no reason for him to hold back.
"Yes, I'm going to investigate this further right away." After finishing his words, Moses turned around and continued with his work.
At this time in the hospital, Everleigh happened to see Revainge. He had seen her as well.
"I didn't expect to see such a young doctor here," he said while looking at her badge.
"Are you not feeling well?" She asked expressionlessly as if she did not hear his words.
He did not mind at all. "My heart feels a little uncomfortable, so I thought of doing a check-up."
Her attitude was still the same as usual. She just wrote a receipt and asked him to do a check-up.
He did not say anything and left with the receipt.
The moment he left, the fear in her heart gradually dissipated. Somehow, when she saw his eyes, she felt inexplicable fear in her heart.
She had never felt this way before.
She sat in the chair. Christopher happened to pass by and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I'm fine."
"Fine? For some reason, I don't believe it," he said seriously. She had never shown such an expression before.
She kept quiet for a moment. After thinking for a while, she said, "The previous patient feels familiar. He reminds me of Wilson."
"Are you imagining it? There are many people who look alike in this world. Don't you know that?"
He comforted her.
She understood that fact, but she trusted her instinct. That man was a dangerous person.
An hour later, Revainge came back with an inspection report in his hand. There was indeed something wrong with his heart, but it was not a big problem.
"I'll give you a prescription," she said as she wrote the prescription.
"Okay." He took the prescription and glanced meaningfully at Everleigh before he left.
Because of this matter, she was in a bad mood all day.
Christopher did not see him. "It's not good for you to act like this. Whenever you encounter something that upsets you, everyone in the hospital will know."
"Do you know what this is called?"
"How would I know?" He was confused.
"We haven't found Wilson yet. Who knows what he'll do. The reason why I'm reacting this way is because I'm worried that he'll be back." She was worried that Wilson would change his mind and start over again.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this. You're right. There's no reason for me to act like this." After saying that, she grabbed her bag and walked out.
When the two of them walked out, Theodore appeared. "I'll talk to you another time. I'm resting once I get home."
"Well, I'll go back too. It's been a tiring day." Christopher sighed softly. The fatigue on his face was obvious.
Everleigh and Theodore went back. On the way home, she mentioned the man named Revainge Folks.
Upon hearing this, a light flashed across his eyes for a moment. "Why did he look for you?"
"He said he was here for a check up, but I feel like something's wrong about him. However, I can't tell what's wrong."
"That's the same person who's been going against me lately."
