Chapter 497
Listening to Everleigh''s voice, Theodore couldn''t hide the smile in his eyes. "You''re quite familiar
with this ce, aren''t you?"
"I used toe here often with Christopher and Cecil. Although this ce looks messy, the food is
very authentic." As she said that, she remembered that she really missed the food when she was
abroad. It was a local specialty food.
He smiled lightly and said, "It seems like you really know it well."
"Of course, the other cuisines are boring. On the other hand, food like this is really exciting. This is
the real deal," she responded. As soon as she finished saying that, the deliciousmb kebabs were
served.
Upon hearing her words, the owner of the restaurant smiled, "Thisdy right here is really wise.
Many other foods are not as delicious as this."
"That''s why I''m here. Please give us a bottle of beer and a ss of fruit juice, thank you!" Everleigh
requested politely.
"Right away!"

Shortly after, the drinks were served. She poured herself a ss of beer, but she gave Theodore
the fruit juice. After all, he had to drive.
He understood why, so he called Moses. "Come and pick me upter. I''ll send you my location."
After that, he hung up the phone and took a sip of the beer in her hand.
"Let''s drink together," he said as he took a bite ofmb kebab and drank a sip of beer.
It was really hearty and satisfying.
The both of them didn''t drink much, but they ate a lot of food.
Everleigh ate thest kebab, ced the skewer stick on the te and let out a burp in satisfaction.
"Wow, the food is indeed amazing."
"I''ll bring you for some grilled meat next time." Theodore recalled that they used to love eating
grilled meat together in the past, and it was an unforgettable memory.
"Sure."
After they settled the bill, they walked back to the hospital to help speed up their digestion.
Moses arrived as soon as they reached the hospital.
"Let''s go, I''ll send you back home." Theodore opened the car door for her. Everleigh then sat in the
backseat together with him.
The two of them discussed the tasty food along the car ride, and the atmosphere was exceptionally
harmonious.
It would be really great if they could remain like that.
When Everleigh arrived home, she went upstairs immediately to rest. Little did she know, chaos was
already going on in the Jenkins family.
The first thing that Yeezoo did after being released was to look for Saniogo. He initially thought that
as brothers for decades, Saniogo would at least do something to help him get out.
Unexpectedly, he didn''t care about him at all. Saniogo had abandoned him and left him to suffer in
jail.
"Saniogo, have you forgotten about your promise to our parents? You said that you would take good
care of all your siblings, but now, you don''t even care about us just because you''re in charge of the
Jenkins family!" Yeezoo shouted in a thunderous voice, as if he wanted to destroy the house.
Annie, who was sitting aside, was shocked to see such a scene. Yeezoo looked nothing like the
friendly man he was before.
Saniogo, on the other hand, looked at him with an emotionless face, as if he was looking at a
stranger.
Before their father passed away, he knew that Luqman and Yeezoo weren''t talented in doing
business, and something bad would happen sooner orter. For the sake of the family''s reputation,
Saniogo was asked to take good care of his siblings. However, Yeezoo had been causing trouble
over and over again just because Saniogo had made that promise.
"Yeezoo, what are you trying to say? Have I failed you as your eldest brother?" Saniogo questioned
him with a cold face.
Yeezoo still felt he had done nothing wrong. He retorted boldly, "Isn''t it true? How good do you think
you are as our eldest brother?" He was confident that since Saniogo had made the promise to their
father, he was obligated to take care of them for the rest of his life, instead of putting his own
brother in jail just because of Everleigh
Hearing that, Alexander let out a sneer, "Uncle Yeezoo, your words are somewhat unreasonable.
You''re already in your fifties. Are you still expecting someone else to clean up your mess for the rest
of your life?"
"You shut up. The adults are talking, you shouldn''t be interrupting," Yeezoo bellowed angrily.
Alexander wanted to continue speaking, but Saniogo nced at him, signaling him to stop.
For so many years, Saniogo had been doing so much for them, but they took everything for
granted. Hence, he had finally decided to do something about it.
He stood up and walked towards Yeezoo, and his freezing coldness surrounded him.
"Alright then, since you''re bringing up the past, let''s talk about the past today. How many things
have you done to harm thepany ever since Dad passed away? Do you need me to list it out
one by one?" Saniogo said in a harsh tone.
Yeezoo looked at him, and was taken aback slightly. "You..."
"If it wasn''t for father''sst words, do you really think I would''ve kept you in the family until today?"
Saniogo added coldly. All these years, he had been trying to tolerate them for the sake of his father.
Alexander felt that his father''s words weren''t harsh enough, so he showed Yeezoo the information
on his mobile phone and said, "Uncle, these are your recent whereabouts. Do you want me to read
them out? I know exactly why you''ve chosen the project."
Yeezoo''s entire body trembled and he almost fell down.
Cynthia went forward to hold him, and her expression was troubled as well. When Yeezoo first
decided to go over and confront Saniogo, she thought that her father was brave and confident, but
she didn''t expect him to be left speechless by her uncle.
Annie looked at Yeezoo''s expression, and felt rather awkward. She was an outsider, so it wasn''t
appropriate for her to say anything. However, she could tell that his words were terribly wrong. Even
parents wouldn''t dare to discipline their children for their whole lives, not to mention an elder
brother.
"Saniogo, you..."
"Yeezoo, if you''re unhappy with it, feel free to start your own business. I''ll keep your shares for you,
but I''ll use it to cover the losses that you''ve caused this time," Saniogo said everything that he
wanted to say.
Yeezoo was rather infuriated. "You..."
"Uncle, do you really want everyone to know what you''ve done? If you''re still insisting on keeping
your shares, I can sue you right now. I''d really like to see who has the guts to bail you out again,"
Alexander''sst sentence was directed at Annie.
She was stunned, and she turned her head to look at his cold face.
"Alexander, I..."
"Annie, although we have a good rtionship, I hope you can understand that this is an internal
matter within the Jenkins family. Even if it''s Aunt Missha''s instruction, someone from our family
should''ve done it instead," Alexander expressed his dissatisfaction in a straightforward manner.
Business and personal rtionships should be separated at all times. It had always been one of his
life principles.
Hearing that, Annie lowered her head and spoke in a guilty tone, "I was just worried about Cynthia.
Otherwise, I wouldn''t have..."
"Miss Lawson, Alexander''s words might have been a little too harsh, but this is a family matter
within the Jenkins family after all. You''ve really crossed the line this time," Saniogo said. In fact, he
wanted to use that opportunity to teach Cynthia a lesson, but someone else had disrupted his n.
Yeezoo was even worse, and actually had the audacity to confront him. Saniogo was really
disappointed to have such a brother.
There was nothing else Annie could say. If her actions would cause Alexander to dislike her, she
would definitely not do it again.
