Chapter 258


    Theodore listened to the report from thepany expressionlessly. On the other hand, Moses


    didn''t forget to observe his boss'' face after he finished speaking.


    "Mr. Godfrey, now that the matter has been settled, do you have anything else to add?"


    "Has Everleigh returned to the hospital?" He looked at the documents on the table. His voice was


    deep and cold, as if he was asking about the weather.


    "No."


    "Then we''ll continue to stop the funding. When she goes back to work, that''s when well provide the


    funds."


    Moses nodded before he hesitated for a moment, and said, "Madam Madison already knows that


    you stopped funding the city hospital, I''m afraid..."


    "If there''s anything, just me it on me." Theodore didn''t seem to mind. Regarding Mrs. Godfrey''s


    actions, he couldn''t be bothered with them at all.

    Then, Moses turned around and walked out without saying a word.


    Everleigh had gone back to work, which was also because of Mr. Lawson''s repeated requests. He


    realized that if she didn''te, the funds would not be in ce. He had to make a phone call three


    times a day.


    She didn''t mean to torment Mr. Lawson. After all, he was still the dean, and she would work for him.


    As soon as she arrived at the hospital, she continued to take her interns with her. They were very


    happy to see hering.


    "Dr. Trevino, it''s good that you''re back. We were really worried that we wouldn''t see you again."


    "You could always juste and visit me. Let''s go, we have rounds." Everleigh looked at the


    casebooks. Some people had rather tricky illnesses, and she was worried about them, so she had


    to check on them in person.


    The interns followed her around. Everleigh, who was wearing a white coat, looked cool. The


    confidence she radiated made people unable to move their eyes away. It seemed that this was her


    battlefield.


    She checked several wards and finally came to Helen''s.


    She did not participate in thest operation. Hence, she needed to visit her, regardless of her


    feelings and reasons.


    After entering the intensive care unit, Everleigh''s eyes were full of sorrow. She thought of Helen''s


    lively appearance previously, which was rare, but now, she was lying there motionless, which made


    her feel bad.


    Everleigh sat for a while and was ready to go. The moment she turned around, she found that there


    was something wrong with the heart monitor. Her pupils shrank and she quickly pressed the


    emergency bell.


    Other hospital staff members rushed over when they heard the bell.


    Everleigh ordered them to prepare for an operation immediately.


    As Helen was pushed in, the nurse looked a little serious. Everleigh nced at her and went


    straight in without saying anything.


    When Christopher heard the news, he rushed over and asked her to wait for him.


    Everleigh held her hands in the air and she was ready to go in for the operation. However, she was


    a little puzzled by his words. "Why? I can also do this operation..."


    "Believe me. I have my reasons. Wait for me. I won''t joke with such a thing," he said in a serious


    tone.


    Everleigh rarely heard him speak in such a tone. She hesitated for a moment and said, "Then hurry


    up."


    "I''ll be right there."


    Upon hearing this, Theodore and Mrs. Godfrey also rushed to the hospital. When they asked who


    the main surgeon was, Mrs. Godfrey blew up and shouted.


    Theodore shouted angrily, "What are you shouting about? Grandma''s inside for surgery. Can''t you


    see that?"


    Mrs. Godfrey still wanted to say something, but when she saw his expression, she shuddered and


    forced herself to hold her tongue. She felt very ufortable.


    The sun was slowly setting, and ayer of darkness covered the ground, giving people a gloomy


    atmosphere. The lights on the street were also bright, forming a feeling of luxury, and it made


    people feel rxed.


    However, the people in the hospital were still nervous. Even Mr. Lawson was waiting at the door for


    the result of the operation.


    Time passed little by little. Theodore kept his posture, and his eyes never left the door of the


    operating theater.


    Then, the nurse came out with blood bags in her hand. Mrs. Godfrey felt dizzy and her anger


    dissipated when she saw them being sent inside.


    After God knows how long, the door of the operating room opened, and Everleigh and Christopher


    came out from inside.


    Seeing here out, Theodore stepped forward. Just as he was about to speak, he saw that


    Everleigh''s expression wasn''t good, and his heart trembled. With a trembling voice, he asked,


    "Grandma, she..."


    "The operation failed," she said in a low voice. Her eyes were a little red, and the sorrow in her eyes


    could be seen clearly.


    Hearing this, Theodore''s face stiffened. He reached out his hand and grabbed her shoulder. The


    corners of his mouth trembled, and the strength of his hand increased a little. "You''re not kidding,


    are you?"


    When Christopher saw his expression, he was worried that she would be hit. He pulled her behind


    him and said in a heavy tone, "Theodore, we would never joke about this. Your grandmother has


    really passed away."


    "Mom..." Mrs. Godfrey heard it all. She cried out sorrowfully, and the corridor was filled with despair.


    Ultimately, Theodore had to believe Everleigh''s words. He stood still with empty eyes as if he had


    lost his soul.


    Mr. Lawson sat in his chair listlessly, knowing in his heart that everything was over.


    If Madam Scott died in their hospital, Theodore and Mrs. Godfrey would not let it go so easily.


    Mrs. Godfrey cried very sadly. When she looked up and saw Everleigh''s sad eyes, she directly


    rushed up and pped her in the face. "It''s all your fault, you vixen. You killed my mother."


    Everleigh was stunned by her p. She didn''t expect that Madison would suddenly attack her.


    Seeing this, Christopher directly walked over and pushed Mrs. Godfrey away with a cold face. "How


    can you hit her? This kind of operation is risky. Don''t simply use people of things."


    When Theodore saw Christopher standing in front of Everleigh to protect her, his hands clenched so


    tightly that they creaked. At that moment, it was the first time he hated Madison. Why was it that she


    still couldn''t tell the right from wrong at this time? Why would Helen be sick and admitted to the


    hospital? Could it be that she didn''t even have the slightest bit of remorse in her heart?


    "You''re not as skillful as others, right? I think you killed my mother because you wanted to take


    revenge on the Godfrey family." Mrs. Godfrey pointed at her, shouting so loudly that the blue veins


    on her forehead popped out. She looked so angry that she wanted to tear Everleigh into pieces.


    "Enough! Even now, you still don''t know that you''ve done something wrong?" Theodore roared


    angrily. The sorrow and anger in his eyes were about to pour out. Seeing Madison''s unreasonable


    behavior, he truly couldn''t bear it any longer.


    Upon hearing his voice, Christopher''s and Everleigh''s bodies trembled. For a moment, they felt as if


    Theodore wanted to kill someone to vent his anger.


    "It''s clearly Everleigh''s fault. Why are you arguing with me here?"
