Chapter 421
Both Theodore and Xavier were very indifferent. It was impossible for them to treat each other like
brothers in a normal family.
On the contrary, Everleigh was used to their way of getting along with each other.
She found it rather interesting.
Felicia and Lenold walked over, and both of them looked a little weird.
"Everleigh, I have something else to do, I have to go back first."
"Everleigh, I have to get back to thepany now." Both of them spoke at the same time.
Everleigh and Cecil stared at them calmly.
"Alright, go ahead. There''s nothing else to do here." Everleigh broke the awkward atmosphere.
Felicia turned around and left immediately without feeling awkward. Lenold followed behind her and
left too. Cecil and Everleigh knew what was happening, but they didn''t say anything. They just let
them go.
The sun slowly set, and the night gradually fell. The lights in the garden turned on. All the guests left
one after another.
In the end, only Cecil, Leon, Everleigh, and Theodore were left.
"We are your guests too. Why should we stay back and help you see the other guests out?" Cecil
comined while rubbing her feet. She was really exhausted from wearing high heels for the whole
day.
Everleigh felt really tired as well, but she had to greet the guests as she was part of thepany.
Since they were best friends, Cecil had no choice but to stay back and apany her.
Seeing that everyone had left, Theodore said, "All of you should go back and have a rest now.
Thanks for your help."
Leon nced at Cecil, and without saying a word, he turned around and left.
She was rather unhappy to see his actions. As a gentleman, shouldn''t he have offered to send her
back with a smile on his face?
"I''ll get the driver to send you home."
"Sure. I don''t think I''m able to drive right now." Hearing Theodore''s words, Cecil agreed happily. She
was dying to tuck herself into bed and have a really good rest.
In the big garden, apart from the cleaners, only Theodore and Everleigh were left standing there.
"Let''s go. I''ll send you back home."
She nodded.
Inside the car, she couldn''t help but ask, "Why did Leon be like this?"
"Well, the opposite of love is hate. Although Leon doesn''t hate her, he needs some time to get used
to it."
"I originally thought that you possessed him!"
"Haha... How is that even possible?" Heughed as he looked at the street.
Little did he know, his attitude towards Everleigh when she just came back was really cold.
In fact, it was even colder and more heartless than Leon.
At the gate of the Trevino family''s home, she got out of the car. Theodore said, "Everleigh, now that
thepany has just started, you might have to work really hard for some time."
"I understand. I''ll be at thepany tomorrow morning, and then go to the hospital in the
afternoon." She wasn''t afraid of hardship. If she could invent something new, it would actually be a
good thing for her.
His eyes sparkled. He figured that once thepany could get on track after a period of tiring work,
she would have some time to take a break.
The next day, everyone was talking about the opening of Theodore''s newpany, and everyone
had a clear picture of Everleigh''s position in thepany.
Even Christopher, who was in the countryside, received the news. His mouth opened wide in shock
when he read about the news on his phone.
It had only been a few days since hest contacted her, and such a big incident had already
happened. "Everleigh, you''re finished!" He cursed in his heart.
He then gave her a call furiously. "Hey, Everleigh!"
She, who was woken up by the call, heard his furious roar.
"Christopher, I''m trying to sleep. Don''t disturb me," she said hoarsely with her eyes still shut. She
hung up the phone before he could say anything else.
Christopher was infuriated on the other side of the phone. He did everything for her, and now she
actually hung up on him just to go back to sleep?
He was lost for words!
After freshening up, the first thing that Everleigh did was rush to thepany immediately. She was
a little tired the day before, so she had a really good sleep. She had totally forgotten about the call
after she woke up.
"You''rete."
"I''m sorry, I overslept a little." Everleigh was in a rush. Seeing Theodore standing in front of her, the
guilt on her face grew.
His expression was cold, but his eyes were warm. "Let''s go inside. There''s a meeting today."
"Okay." She understood that it was really unprofessional of her to bete to work on the first day of
thepany''s operation.
To help with her research, Theodore had specially hired several researchers who were in progress
of their own research.
After all, thepany had to continue running while waiting for Everleigh''s work to seed. He
couldn''t leave the wholepany waiting for a single research only.
After a busy afternoon, she returned to the hospital, feeling a little tired.
"Can you really cope with all this stress and exhaustion?" Stainley handed her an apple, to give her
some nutrition.
She didn''t refuse it and took a big bite. It was rather crunchy.
"I''m new at thepany, so I should be there earlier."
"Christopher called me and asked about you. Didn''t you answer his call?" He asked in confusion.
When Christopher called him, he was in a pretty bad mood and even shouted over the phone.
Everleigh thought about it carefully. She remembered that she was very dazed and sleepy, so she
wasn''t really sure if he gave her a call or not.
"Nope, not that I remember of."
Hearing her response, Stainley was certain that she was too sleepy andpletely forgot about it.
"You should give him a call first. I''m going back to work." He sighed helplessly. As he left, Everleigh
was a little stunned.
She felt that he had be a little different. He used to appear in front of her everyday, but ever
since she rejected himst time, he had been keeping a distance from her.

If he had really thought it through, she would be very delighted.
Everleigh cleared her thoughts and called Christopher. The call was connected immediately.
"Everleigh, how sleepy were you? Why did you hang up on me? I''m fine with that, but why didn''t
you call me back?"
"I was sleeping. I thought it was a dream."
"Dreaming? I think you''re just looking for an excuse! Why are you partnering up with Theodore to
start a new business?" The topic changed so quickly that she didn''t have time to react.
He was still asking about the call a second ago.
Why did he ask about the business all of a sudden?
She was helpless. She wasn''t even given enough time to react and respond.
"Which question do you want me to answer first?" She asked.
"Thest one."
"Many things happened while you were away, so we had to move our ns forward. Theodore did
tell me about this, and I agreed with it too. After all, there''s some great progress with the new
medicines."
"Isn''t he focusing on medical equipment? What does it have to do with medicines?" Christopher
questioned in his deep voice.
Wasn''t thepany a medical equipmentpany?
Everleigh took a deep breath and answered, "Not only medical equipment, but we are also looking
into some important medicines. Machines are quite expensive, and many hospitals might not use
them, but medicines are different. It''s a really good starting point for our business. Besides,
medicines are my specialty."
He was silent for a long time. It turned out that the new medicines Everleigh had developed were
helping Theodore fulfill his n. What a brilliant n! He was incredibly lucky to have her working
for him after leaving the Godfrey family to establish his ownpany.
