Chapter 518
Although Maxwell didn''t know about the grudges between them, he could sense that Madison hated
Everleigh very much.
In that case, it was better for him not to say anything.
"Dr. Harrison, my son is counting on you," Madison said in a pleading tone.
Maxwell''s medical expertise was well- known in Ocpeace City, and he was also Xavier''s only hope.
Thus, she put all her faith on him.
Seeing that she was so obstinate, he sighed helplessly, "Madam Allen, I hope you won''t regret it.
Everleigh is my best student. No matter how much you dislike her, I hope you can think about it
carefully."
She nced at him with displeasure. "Will your student even be better than you?"
He didn''t say anything else when he noticed her extreme stubbornness.
After Everleigh left the ward, she returned to her office. Christopher followed her and asked, "Aren''t
you worried about him?" "Not really, Dr. Harrison is in charge, so Xavier will be just fine. It''s just that
Madison''s attitude is really disgusting. Even though her son is in such a critical condition, she is still
so prejudiced. I haven''t even settled the scores with her yet."
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Madison was still so stubborn even at that
moment.
"If she had the intention to let it go, things wouldn''t have ended up like this. Why are you so
furious?" He tried to calm her down.
She kept silent, but her expression remained cold. His words made sense.
He continued, "You don''t have to be angry. Just take good care of your own father. As for Xavier,
just listen to Theodore and don''t worry about him. He will have a heart attack at any time, and by
then, Madison will know that she must look for you."
She raised her head and looked at Christopher. He was right, but if Xavier''s condition aggravated, it
would be life-threatening. There was even a possibility that he would die.
He noticed her worried expression, and sighed softly, "Fine, I''ll keep a close eye on him."
"Thanks." Everleigh was waiting for him to say that. She had promised Theodore that she would
take good care of Xavier, and she would never break that promise.
In the afternoon, she went to Abraham''s ward. He was eating some fruits while sitting on his bed,
and he seemed to be in a good mood.
"Dad."
"Actually, it isn''t that bad to stay here in peace and silence. My life has always been very busy." He
couldn''t help but say that when he saw her.
She walked over and sat next to him. She snickered and said, "If you had realized this earlier, your
health wouldn''t have been so bad."
When he heard that, he let out a long sigh. "If you all could help lighten my burden earlier, I wouldn''t
have ended up here."
She was guilt-ridden. It was true, but she had no interest in business at all. If she had, she wouldn''t
have waited until now to help him out.
"Dad, we''re just not suitable to do business. We can''t help you, so you have to work harder on your
own."
She sounded irresponsible, but they had no other solutions.
Abraham knew that they couldn''t help him, so it would be better for him to hand thepany over
to stair.
The boy was gifted and promising, so he was the most suitable candidate.
"I''ll hand it over to stair then."
Everleigh was astonished. "Dad, you''re kidding, right? stair is still so young!"
"stair is young, but he is extraordinarily intelligent. Everleigh, don''t always look down on him.
This kid will definitely be sessful in the future. I can be reassured if I give it to him, and I also
believe that you won''t do anything to Selena."
She went silent for a moment. "Dad, are you worried that Selena will not have..."
He shook his head. He wasn''t worried at all. She wasn''t a heartless and greedy person, so he was
just afraid that Selena would inherit too much of his wealth. He knew that Everleigh didn''t need
anymore money, but she had her own shares in Trevino Group too. He would definitely treat her
fairly.
"Everleigh, buy me some meatter, I''m suddenly craving it." Abraham changed the topic all of a
sudden.

She nodded. "I''ll ask Hilda to cook some for you."
"What about someone else? Hilda''s cooking is delicious, but I''ve been eating it everyday, so I want
to try someone else''s cooking."
She chuckled and didn''t say anything. He was indeed picky.
"Sure, I''ll buy it for you right now. Just wait here for me." After saying that, she got up and went out.
When she returned, Selena hade too.
Naturally, she brought a lot of food for Abraham as well.
"Everleigh, where did you go?"
Everleigh picked up the takeaway container containing the meat dish helplessly, and said, "It''s Dad.
He said he wanted to eat some meat, but he didn''t want Hilda to cook it. That''s why I went out to
buy it just now."
Selena raised her eyebrows and looked at Hilda who had juste out of the washroom.
Hilda was a little unhappy as she looked at Abraham and asked, "Mr. Trevino, are you tired of my
cooking?"
"Nonsense. I just want to have something different. I can''t just eat the same thing every single day,
can I?" He stared at her.
She pursed her lips. She wasn''t really angry. She understood that he wanted to eat something
different, so she brought some soup with her to make him feel better.
Everleigh understood Hilda''s personality, so she just ignored them.
After setting up the table, the four of them sat together and ate the food.
Hilda took a bite of the meat that was bought, and immediately knew what it was. She gave
Abraham a resentful look and asked, "Is this the kind of food you like? Mr. Trevino, am I not serving
you well?"
"This meat is really not as delicious as the one you usually make. I don''t want to eat anymore." He
put down his fork and had lost all his appetite.
Selena smiled, and didn''t want to say anything more.
Everleigh wanted to stay and take care of Abraham, but he disagreed. She had to work, so there
was no need for her to stay there. He drove them away and asked for a nurse.
She had no choice but to agree when she saw that he was so determined. When the nurse came
over, Everleigh recognized her in an instant.
"Miss Trevino."
"It''s you."
She was the nurse who took care of Xavier.
"Why are you here?"
The nurse smiled and replied, "Mr. Godfrey asked me toe over, and told me that it''s more
convenient for me toe here by myself."
Everleigh nodded. She felt much more reassured to know that it was her. When Abraham learned
that Theodore wasing over, he didn''t say anything. It was good to have someone he could talk
to.
When Everleigh walked out of the hospital, a gust of cool wind blew over. She zipped up her jacket.
"Get in the car. Let''s talk when we get home." Selena felt extremely cold as well.
In the car, they turned on the heater and felt much morefortable. "The weather is really getting
colder. Although it won''t snow, this temperature..." "The hospital has a heating system. It''s actually a
good thing to stay in the hospital right now. At least the weather isn''t too cold yet," Everleigh
exined.
Cold weather wasn''t a good thing for patients with heart diseases.
After a moment of silence, Selena started the car and they drove back home.
That night, Everleigh had just fallen asleep when she heard a vibration. She thought her phone was
just ringing in her dreams, but when she woke up, her phone was really ringing.
After a long moment, she came to her senses and answered the call.
"Hello?"
