Deep Love Hidden From Him

Chapter 93

After Christopher became an employee in the hospital, he had taken a lot of pressure off Everleigh's shoulders.

Of course, he took most of his time dealing with VIP female patients. With his extremely charming eyes and dimples, Christopher had been living a good life in the hospital in less than a week. In the intervals between surgeries, there was a nurse who would bring lunch to him.

Everleigh felt as if she'd returned to the time when they were studying abroad. Back then, a bunch of girls was waiting in line to give things to Christopher, and then most of those things were put into her own pocket.

This time, she learned to be a good girl. No matter how Christopher showed off what he had received, Everleigh was indifferent and kept a distance from him in the hospital.

In the afternoon, after the consultation of the department of neurology and heart ended, Christopher knocked on the door of Everleigh's office. He entered the door, put a cup of milk tea and a pack of delicate sushi on Everleigh's table, and said without shame, "The nurse, Mary, from the inpatient department gave them to me."

Everleigh glanced at it and said, "Take them away quickly. I don't want to eat it."

"Why? I can't finish it alone."

"You're a sweet- talker. I won't bear the consequences with you like I used to when we were abroad."

Those girls who were crazy about pursuing Christopher would find out that he was scum after some time. By then, his bad reputation would spread for hundreds of miles.

As the saying goes, "You are the product of your environment". Everleigh decided to make plans in advance this time so as not to follow the same mistakes and become an outsider again.

"Come on, I'm very restrained. I really didn't randomly flirt around." Christopher sat down on the chair and popped a piece of sushi into his mouth.

"Then you can enjoy the sushi yourself." Everleigh took off her coat and left with her bag and car keys. "I've got something to do, so I'll take my leave."

"It's not time to get off work yet. Where are you going?"

"Ocpeace Medical University. I've made an appointment with the dean to discuss the schedule for class after school starts."

Just after August, it was the beginning of the new term. As a new lecturer, Everleigh had to give at least eight classes to students every week.

"I'll go with you."

"You're so annoying." "I'm free in the afternoon anyway. Let's go. I'll drive you," Christopher said. Then, he took off his white coat and threw it in her office, following her out of the hospital shamelessly.

Christopher drove the car out of the hospital and into the traffic. He drove in the direction of Ocpeace Medical University. A pair of clean and slender hands were put on the steering wheel calmly.

He said proudly, "After all, this car was gotten with my own hands. I'll take you for a little spin experience."

"Experience my a*s. Are you trying to experience a traffic jam?" Everleigh stuffed her car keys into the bag and said, "I was going to pick up the children."

At the mention of the children, Christopher shook his head. "You won't be able to pick them up in such a short time. My mother will never allow you to take them away."

During this period of time, Alastair and Adrienne were living in the Meyer family home. Everleigh went there twice, but she didn't succeed in getting the children out. Vanessa was too enthusiastic. Not only that, Adrienne would get whatever she wanted and she had no intention of leaving at all.

Everleigh was somewhat speechless at how she managed to raise such an ungrateful daughter.

As they were talking, Everleigh's cell phone vibrated. After she unlocked it, she frowned.

"What's wrong?" Christopher glanced at it and saw the name of the sender. "William? Your senior?"

"Yes." Everleigh nodded.

"Why is he calling you?"

"He asked me out to eat and I refused several times," Everleigh gripped her cell phone tightly and said, "I haven't thought about what I want to ask him. If he really knows what happened that year, I'm not ready to face it."

"You can't prepare for this kind of thing." Christopher held the steering wheel with one hand and took her cell phone with his other hand. He quickly typed out a sentence and sent it out.

"Ah..."

Everleigh didn't have time to withdraw the message. Before she could take back her cell phone, William had already replied, "Okay, Everleigh, see you in the restaurant opposite the school."

Before this message, Christopher said, "I happen to be going back to the school to deal with something. Shall we meet in the school later?"

Everleigh glared at him. "What are you doing?"

Christopher said, "Helping you face him directly. If you don't ask him directly, how would you know how much he knows? Or did he personally participate in that matter?"

Everleigh's brows furrowed deeper, and she was lost in thought as she looked at her phone. They were all once her schoolmates and besties. She could never imagine that at the graduation party, someone would frame her and set up such a big trap.

Soon, the car arrived at Ocpeace Medical University.

Christopher did not get out of the car. "I'll find a parking space and then wander around for a bit. After you finish your business, go straight to the arranged place. I’ll go find you later."

"Hmm, okay." Looking at Christopher driving the car away, Everleigh’s heart was beating fast.

It didn't take much time to arrange the schedule in the dean's office. The dean knew that Everleigh was highly valued by the school and his attitude was very polite.

After arranging the schedule, Everleigh came out of the dean's office and glanced at her cell phone. Christopher did not send her a message either. She guessed that Christopher must have gone flirting with some beautiful women somewhere.

She had no time to think about it and went straight to the restaurant where she had made an appointment with William.

It was evening, and the sun was setting. The sunset glow illuminated the entrance of the Ocpeace Medical University. Figures of young people went in and out, all of whom were in the best years of

their lives.

The restaurants near the university mostly took the cost of students into consideration. The decoration style was slightly archaic, and there were many kinds of dishes. Although they were not as rich in taste, they were cost-effective.

When Everleigh was studying here, she had eaten all the food in the surrounding restaurants before. However, seven years had passed, and the neighboring restaurants had changed a lot.

"Everleigh, I'm here." As soon as she entered the restaurant, she heard William's voice come from a distance.

Everleigh frowned and walked towards the seat.

"Have you done everything you needed to?" As soon as she sat down, William started to ask about the school affairs, as if he was an old friend of hers for many years. "If there are any difficulties, you can ask me if you need help."

"No." Everleigh looked reluctant. When she thought that the incident seven years ago could have something to do with William, she couldn't help but feel sick to her stomach. "Everything is done."

"Then we'll be colleagues in the future," William pushed the menu in front of her and said, "Everleigh, what would you like to eat? There aren't any good restaurants around the school. If you hadn't said that you were in a hurry, I would have treated you to a good meal."

"Don't be so polite." Everleigh looked at the menu and she was really not in the mood to order. So, she cut straight to the point. "William, I want to ask you something."

As soon as she said that, William's face, which was full of laughter, suddenly turned stiff.

In the silence, it seemed that even the air was frozen.

Everleigh, however, calmed down and looked at him quietly, waiting for him to speak.

After a long time, William finally spoke, "That incident seven years ago, right?"Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
