Chapter 184
Everleigh''s fingers, which were holding the contract, slightly tightened and her eyes were almost
glued to where the signature was.
The words, "Moses Lawson" were very conspicuous in the signature column at the lower right
corner of the contract.
It was Theodore''s assistant, Moses.
If Everleigh hadn''t seen Moses'' signature on Helen''s hospital registration form, she would have
thought that Moses was just someone with the same name as him, but it was obviously not the case
now.
Her memory was excellent. The signature was exactly the same as that on the hospital''s
registration form, which meant that the jewelry order of one hundred million dors that was
received by Cecil was made by Theodore''s assistant, Moses.
Cecil had to fix the set of jewelry overnight, so Everleigh and the two children ordered dinner to be
delivered to her store and she told Cecil about it during dinner.
"Gag!" Cecil choked on a mouthful of soup, "Ahem, Ahem... Who?"
"Slow down." Everleigh quickly handed over a tissue. "Don''t be so anxious."
"Theodore?" Cecil''s eyes widened. She immediately bounced up from her chair and said in a loud
voice, "You said that the person who wants to buy this jewelry is Theodore?"
"Shh! Lower your voice," Everleigh grabbed Cecil''s arm and pulled her to make her sit down. She
nced at the inner room from the corner of her eyes.
The two children were curious about jewelry, so two shop assistants brought them in to y-
Cecil sat down in the chair with her arms crossed, and she said angrily, "I get very angry when I
hear this name. You know that the biggest reason I don''t want to stay in Ocpeace City is because of
him. We see each other all the time."
"What''s the big deal? Ocpeace City is not big, but it''s not small either."
"Who knows? Enemies would always meet. We have met several times at jewelry exhibition fairs.
He brought Josephine with him every time, and I feel nauseous seeing them."
Everleigh forced a smile.
Josephine was Theodore''s fiancee, so it was normal for her to be with him.
"If I had known earlier that he was the one who ordered it, I..."
"So what if you knew?" Everleighforted her, "Fortunately, you didn''t know. If you knew, you''d be
in a difficult position. After all, it''s an order of 100 million dors. Don''t affect your business because
of me."
"What are you thinking?" Cecil raised her eyebrows, gnashed her teeth and said, "If I had known
that it was he who made the order, I would have charged him ten times the price. It''s such a waste
not asking for more!"
Looking at Cecil''s regretful look, Everleigh was speechless and she silently rolled her eyes.
"There is no good man in the world. They all like the new and loathe the old." Cecil wiped the soup
from the corner of her mouth and suddenly thought of something. "No wait, how did you know that
Moses is Theodore''s assistant?"
Everleigh was eating and her heart skipped a beat when she heard that question. When she looked
up at Cecil, she smiled guiltily and said, "Well, it''s a long story..."
After ten minutes, Cecil''s expression had changed many times. In the end, her expression was dark
and she looked so angry that she couldn''t speak. If a fortune- teller passed by, he would confidently
say that her ophryon had ckened and there would be bloodshed.
"Please drink some water and calm down. Calm down," Everleigh said as she pushed the cup
across fawningly.
"Don''t do this to me." Cecil was exasperated. "If he didn''t treat you like that at that time, would you
quarrel with your father and go abroad alone despite being pregnant? Has he not caused you
enough suffering?"
Everleigh looked in the direction of the inner room with a gloomy expression and said, "I insisted on
giving birth to the children. It has nothing to do with him."
"Come on, forget about Adrienne, but for stair, it''s like his face was torn from Theodore''s face.
Do you dare say that he''s not Theodore''s son?"
"What if he''s not?"
"There''s no ''what if." Cecil''s face was full of certainty. "If you don''t believe me, bring the two children
to Theodore and let him take a look. He''ll definitely be able to recognize them at a nce."
Seeing that Everleigh was silent, Cecil asked, "He has seen them already, hasn''t he?"
"Hmm."
"Hmm? What does that mean? Didn''t he recognize stair?"
Everleigh reluctantly nodded and had a self-deprecating look.
Initially, Theodore had suspected that the two children were rted to him, but for some reason, he
gave up on that idea. In any case, he didn''t recognize them.
"F*ck," Cecil dropped her spoon and said, "What a fool! Are those eyes simply for decoration on his
face? Is there something wrong with his brain? Does he have the brain of a goose?"
Looking at Cecil''s angry expression, Everleigh felt a little helpless.
Over the past few years, the name "Theodore" wasn''t much of a taboo with her, but in terms of
Cecil, he had be a topic that couldn''t be mentioned. When it came to her, she was like a
firecracker. She could curse for three days and nights in a row without stopping.
"Does it mean that you are now working as an attending physician for his grandmother? Won''t you
two meet everyday?"
"Not really." While eating the food on her te, Everleigh said, "We haven''t seen each other for
several days. He won''te to the hospital everyday, but I have to see him in two days."
"You have to meet? Why?"
All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.
"I have to return the dog to him."
"A dog? What dog?"
"Oh, Leo..." Everleigh''s words were at the tip of her tongue. She suddenly thought of something and
changed course abruptly. "He left his dog at my house during the weekend."
Cecil snorted and sneered. "The Godfrey family doesn''t even have the space to keep dogs, and
they are keeping dogs in your house? Are you kidding me?"
Everleigh looked at Cecil and was relieved to see that she didn''t notice anything. She put a chicken
wing onto Cecil''s te and said with lingering fear, "The main thing is that stair and Adrienne like
him. I''ve had the dog for two days but he''ll be returned soon."
Other than the name ''Theodore'', which caused her hair to stand on end, there was another name
that absolutely couldn''t be mentioned in front of Cecil even if one was getting beaten till death:
Leon.
What level of taboo was this? Everleigh once suspected that more than half of Cecil''s hatred for
Theodore was actually due to his cousin, Leon.
Cecil''s apartment was above the jewelry store. After she took the two children upstairs to let them
sleep, Everleigh helped Cecil in the workshop downstairs.
The ne on the table was designed with green gems as the center. Most of the diamonds
around were not broken diamonds. Any one of them was worth a lot and they each shone so
brightly they could almost blind a person.
Cecil was wearing transparent protective sses, holding tools in her hand, and talking under the
bright light. "The customer said that this chain is for an olddy for her birthday. It should be his
grandmother, right?"
Everleigh came back to her senses and replied, "Yes, his grandmother''s birthday ising in a
couple of days. They''re going to hold a birthday party at the Swallow Manor." "She has been
hospitalized because of her heart disease, so why are they still putting on such a show?" Cecil
raised her head and asked, "Then as her attending physician, shouldn''t you be attending?"
Everleigh nodded and said, "Yes, it''s fine as long as I''m present. I don''t necessarily have to attend
the banquet."
Cecil took off her sses and said, "I''ll go with you."
"You want to go?" Everleigh was stunned and looked up with a dumbfounded expression.
