Chapter 512
Chapter 512
Theodore was silent for a long while, and his mind was in complete chaos. He couldn't come up with a conclusion.
Everleigh, however, felt a layer of gloom around her heart. It felt like a large net had enveloped them, while they were the prey, and they could be captured and beaten up at anytime.
She sighed, "Let's just wait and see, well find out who did it sooner or later."
Her sigh was filled with endless sorrow.
She didn't know how she should describe her current mood.
"Don't think about it anymore, I'll take you out to eat. Didn't you say that eating can make us feel better?"
"I'm not even in the mood to eat right now. I'll go back to the hospital and check on Xavier's condition."
He didn't say much. He raised his head and suggested, "Let's go together, I'll take you there."
The two of them then went to the hospital, and noticed that Madison was also there. Moses was accompanying her. It was obvious that they had been there for the whole morning.
"Mr. Godfrey." Moses noticed them with his sharp eyes, and walked over to greet them hurriedly.
Everleigh walked over and looked at him. "How long have the two of you been here?"
"We've been here the whole morning. Madam Madison has been crying, so I couldn't just leave her alone."
Theodore's gaze turned gloomy as he walked over to look at Madison. "What's the point of you crying now?"
"Why are you so unconcerned after everything that has happened to your brother?" She questioned him with her red eyes.
Wasn't he investigating?
With the ability of the Godfrey family, why would the investigation take so long to complete? She thought.
Upon hearing that, Theodore clenched his fists tightly as a trace of displeasure flashed across his eyes.
Soon, it vanished.
"How do you know that he's unconcerned? You've just got out so what do you know?" Everleigh criticized sharply. Madison had no right to blame Theodore.
Even if Madison didn't love him, she couldn't suspect him like that.
She glared at Everleigh, and the hatred in her eyes became even more apparent. "Shut up, you b*tch."
"B*tch? What about you? Do you think we have no idea that you've done so many immoral things just because you favor your youngest son? We didn't expose you not because we're afraid of you, but because we respect you as an elder, and didn't want to embarrass you." Everleigh had really had enough. She couldn't believe that a parent would behave like that.
It was understandable that she favored Xavier, but what right did she have to berate Theodore?
She had really gone too far.
Madison stared at her fiercely, but she couldn't say a single word.
Theodore stood beside her with an indifferent expression. "Since this is how you think, then I guess that's it. You're right, I hate Xavier's guts. Without him, I believe I could've led a better life." After saying that, he turned around and left.
Hearing that, Madison panicked. "You... Theodore!"
"Mom, since you love Xavier so much, I believe you have a better way to save him. I won't care about it anymore. Anyway, you never really cared
about me." He was facing the other side, so only Everleigh could see his expression. Sadness and mockery were bursting out of his eyes.
It was only at that moment that she finally realized he actually loved his mother very much. It was such a pity that she didn't love him back as much.
Madison actually believed that it was his responsibility to do everything for Xavier.
She was fuming. She knew that she had nothing left, and there was no one she could count on, but what Theodore had just said to her was outrageous.
"You... Theodore, how can you be so heartless?"
"Heartless? Isn't this what you've taught me? What's even the point of being a soft- hearted person? To become your puppet?"
Hearing that, she was infuriated. She picked up a chair and hit Theodore with it. Moses didn't expect her to do such a thing. Before he could react, Theodore's forehead was injured by Madison.
Blood began flowing out in an instant.
Everleigh rushed forward and pushed Madison away as she yelled angrily, "Are you crazy? He's your son!"
"I don't have such a treacherous son!" She chided harshly. Those few words made Theodore's eyes open wide, and his heart started to ache. Then, the corners of his lips curled into a bitter smile. He had expected it long ago; why did he even have hopes for her?
Their loud sounds echoed throughout the ICU. The nurse was worried that something bad would happen, so she rushed out to look for Christopher. He thought that something had happened to Xavier. When he walked over in a hurry, he saw Theodore's forehead that was full of blood.
Everleigh, on the other hand, was glaring at Madison.
Madison wasn't planning to back off either, and she waited for Theodore to make a move in return.
"This is a hospital. Why are the few of you making so much noise? Get out now. Don't disturb the patients." Christopher's voice was cold. He seemed to be really enraged that they had caused disturbance in the hospital.
Everleigh ignored Madison. Instead, she brought Theodore away to treat his wound.
Moses decided to follow them to leave the area.
Looking at Madison, Christopher was surprised too. Despite this, he managed to react quickly. He looked at her and mocked, "Madam Allen, you've just been released from prison, and you're already causing such a big scene. Are you trying to show it to your son, or your ex-husband?
"It's none of your business."Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
He snorted coldly, "Of course it's none of my business, but you'd better bear in mind that Xavier's life is in Everleigh's hands. If you offend her, no one else in Ocpeace City can cure his heart disease. You'd better think about it."
He thought that that woman was totally unreasonable.
Madison looked at him ferociously, but he raised his eyebrows on purpose and gave her a triumphant look.
It looked like he was trying to say that everything was in their control.
Everleigh took Theodore to dress his wound. A blood vessel in his forehead was slit open by a metal piece from the chair.
"Why didn't you dodge it?"
"I wanted to see if she still had any feelings for me." Theodore's deep voice was mixed with a trace of hoarseness.
At that moment, he still had a slight hope, but all his hope was gone the moment the chair landed on his forehead.
She pursed her thin lips tightly and kept silent. She didn't know how to comfort him.
The only thing that he could do was to face reality.
"You have me and the children. I know we are the ones who can accompany you, but not the one who gave birth to you. We can't give you the love of a mother, but Theodore, you can be a good father and give your children a better life, right?" She was still dressing his wound.
Her words were filled with incessant sadness.
He squeezed out a smile. She was right. He had become a father, so he could make the difference.
He would never hurt his own children like Wilson did, he would give them all his love.
"Everleigh, please do me a favor."
"You don't have to ask, just say what you want me to do." She sealed the dressing on his forehead.
The dressing was finally completed.
