Chapter 441
Christopher widened his eyes. He could not believe his ears.
"Mr. Lawson, don''t you care about virtues? How can you..."
"Didn''t you say that it''s a piece of cake? The standard of medical care in the countryside isn''t so
advanced, and they need more skilled personnel to help them, didn''t you know that?"
Christopher looked at him in disbelief.
Everleigh, who was sitting by the side, wanted tough. That was the perfect example for the idiom
''never trouble trouble until trouble troubles you''.
After the meeting, Christopher still continuously picked out the dean''s faults; she was fed up.
"That''s enough. It''s been an hour. Aren''t you thirsty?" She said weakly.
He shouted, "I''m not thirsty!" Then he picked up a ss of water and took a big sip.
She was speechless. How was he not thirsty?
It would be strange if he wasn''t.
"By the way, how did you solve Theodore''s problem?" Christopher asked her with a stern face.
Everleigh didn''t hide the truth from him and exined everything.

After hearing about it, he frowned deeply. "He must have known the mayor for a long time."
"I''m not sure about this either. I didn''t ask much about it." She didn''t intend to tell him about Talbot.
They had only met once after all.
He didn''t probe for more details.
"What are you going to do next?"
"I don''t have any idea, but I''d like to investigate something," she replied. Everleigh had been busy
with Theodore''s business for a long time and she didn''t have time to deal with her own business.
"What''s the matter?" Christopher asked curiously. The truth of the previous incident had been
revealed and everything seemed to be back to normal.
There was nothing much to investigate.
Her clear eyes seemed a little cold. After thinking for a while, she said, "When I went back to the
Jenkins family, I found out the cause of my parents'' death. It was not an ident, but murder."
He gaped in surprise. How could this be possible? The Jenkins family was the head of the Four
Greatest Households, and their abilities were beyond everyone else''s. How could they be
murdered? Who had the guts to do that?
"Are you so sure?"
"It was Saniogo who told me, and the information has been in my hands so far." Everleigh''s head
hurt when she thought of it. She had all the details but she didn''t have time to investigate them.
It was impossible for Christopher to deny it after hearing it from her.
"If you have time, let me have a look at the information. Maybe I can help you." He was her friend
and had been used to it after so many years.
If there was anything he would help with, he would do it.
She chuckled and asked, "You''re still willing to help me?"
"Of course I am. With our rtionship, you don''t have to be so polite. Besides, I can be more
assured if you have someone to back you up." There was a rare seriousness on his cynical face.
It seemed like he had benefited a lot from this trip to the countryside.
He was telling the truth. At least Wilson wouldn''t dare to target her now.
That evening, Everleigh and Christopher went out to have dinner together. The main reason was
that they had not seen each other for a long time. They had a lot to catch up on and she also
wanted to show him the information regarding her parents that she had kept.
After reading it, he said, "Let''s go and see the private detective first."
"Then I''ll give him a call to make an appointment. All the information was given to me by Saniogo.
There shouldn''t be much difference."
He picked up the ss of water on the table, took a sip and said, "I''ve heard before that Saniogo is
a genius in management and is very capable, but the point is that the Jenkins family has their own
way of thinking, especially the fourth son of the family."
"You know him?" Everleigh asked in surprise.
"Before we knew each other, I''d already heard about him. At that time, he caused a lot of trouble
because of his yboy personality, and it was Saniogo who helped him resolve the situation. Lust is
like a knife for him. Sooner orter, he''ll be dead because of it." Christopher''s words were like a
prophecy as he sentenced him to ''death''.
It seemed that what Everleigh saw that day was true. Yeezoo''s demeanor was caused by his
nighttime affairs.
"Forget it, let''s not talk about this. It has nothing to do with me." She didn''t want to talk about other
people''s affairs.
Now, all she wanted to do was to find out the cause of her parents'' deaths.
Christopher nced at her with his narrow eyes. "Don''t say that so early. Maybe it could be the
Jenkins family. Welment was the pir of the Jenkins family, and there are many people who are
jealous of his identity."
His words reminded her that although anyone could have been a culprit, the Jenkins family had
more reason to do it.
She scratched her head and wondered why everything was getting more and more serious.
Once again she felt that it was good for people to be a little muddle-headed. At least they would be
able to live a simpler life, unlike her who always had headaches the more she understood her
situation.
After the meal, he sent her back. Seeing her worried face, he advised her, "Don''t worry too much.
Maybe things are not asplicated as you think."
"Saniogo had been searching for so many years but he still can''t find anything. Doesn''t that make
thingsplicated?" She retorted.
She was usually not a negative person, but there were some things that could really make people
lose confidence, especially things like this.
Christopher pursed his lips and remained silent. He didn''t know the right words to say.
"Be careful on the road. Let''s talk about it again tomorrow."
"Okay," he nodded. He started the car and drove away.
Everleigh didn''t sleep well that night. Her mind was filled with thoughts.
She couldn''t make heads or tails about anything at all and only managed to sleep when it was
dawn.
The first ray of sunshine in the morning was always so dazzling. Even though she didn''t sleep well
that night, she still forced herself to get up when the morning sun shone over her face.
When she went downstairs, Adrienne was very surprised to see her. "Mommy, are you not feeling
well?"
"No, it''s just that I stayed up all night to read a book. I''m a little tired," Everleigh said in a daze. She
felt really lifeless.
Seeing her like that, Abraham asked Hilda to give her a cup of honey water.
Everleigh took a sip and said, "It''s so sweet."
"Drink a little more. You didn''t rest well enough. Get the driver to send you to workter. You can''t
drive like this," Abraham said as he ate breakfast. He seemed nonchnt, but his tone was full of
concern.
"I know." She didn''t want to drive either and she was willing to take a taxi to the hospital.
When she arrived at the hospital, she rested on the table for a while after finishing her own work.
Christopher walked over and poured her a cup of coffee. "Have a drink. I bet you didn''t sleep at all
last night because of the investigation, am I right?"
"Why do you still ask when you already know the answer?" She said; she was in a bad mood.
He chuckled and said dismissively, "In my opinion, your mentality is the problem. No matter how big
an issue is, there will always be a day when the truth is revealed."
She drank a big mouthful of coffee and said, "I''m leaving."
"Where are you going?"
"To thepany. I go there every afternoon. Keep an eye out for me if anything happens." She was
relieved because she had been too tired during that period of time.
There was no time to rest at all.
Christopher felt helpless. If he had known earlier, he wouldn''t havee back. He still had to work
in the end.
After she walked away, Stainley came in. "Christopher, where is Everleigh?"
