Chapter 397 I'll Complement You The next day, Theodore's checkup was fine, hence he was discharged from the hospital. Everleigh was relieved to hear that. She then went to his ward and helped him pack his belongings. He returned to his ward, only to find that she had already packed everything for him. He then said, "It seems like you're really eager to havedischarged." "Of course. It's not like the hospital is a good place to be. You'll have to go by yourself later. I won't be able to send you off, I have other things to do," she said.
She wanted to attend Galen's funeral later that day. She had already informed Benedict and he was fine with it. All she needed was a car to take her to the funeral.
The other things were already taken care of.
Plus, it wasn't a good thing to keep the troublemakers in the hospital either.
"I think you'd better not go, I don't want to see you get hurt," Theodore said in his deep voice. Attending a funeral wasn't something people looked forward to. Everleigh looked at him in surprise. "How did you know?" "How could I not know when those people are out there constantly causing trouble?" He responded.
She remained silent. She wasn't doing it for Galen. She was doing it out of pity for Missie. She couldn't bear to see all the suffering she had to go through. She was barely in her 40's. Everleigh wanted to help her as much as she could.
She didn't take his advice and decided to attend the funeral. He had no choice but to go with her.
That way, he could at least protect her if something bad was to happen.
Fortunately, the funeral went smoothly. He stayed for a while to make sure that she was safe before heading back home.
That evening, Theodore was carrying boxes of food with him to the hospital. Just as he arrived at the entrance, he suddenly paused, and gazed towards the corner.
There was a flash in his eyes as he strode over.
He arrived at the corner, and heard a voice coming from the back alley, "Boss, we're all ready." "Remember, we must kill Everleigh tonight." "Don't worry. We're already used to doing things like this." Theodore hid behind the wall. He clenched his fists as he overheard the conversation. His knuckles were cracking.
A ferocious gaze appeared in his eyes. His lips curled into a smirk as he texted Moses with his phone. He asked him to send speople over.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter he had taken care of the situation, he headed upstairs.
Everleigh didn't know what was happening outside. She was planning to have dinner after she was done with work, but she received a call from Theodore asking her to wait for him. She decided to wait for him in her office.
She had just returned to her office and sat down when Theodore arrived. She was massaging her own back, feeling exhausted.
"Lethelp you." His voice cfrom the door.
She looked over and saw him walking over with bags of food in his hands.
"You don't have to..." Before she could finish her sentence, her stomach started rumbling.
Theodore was already used to it. He set the table and called her over to eat.
Everleigh's cheeks flushed. He would somehow be with her whenever her stomach growled.
"Help yourself to it and tellhow it tastes," he said.
She took a bite in embarrassment and said, "This doesn't taste like your housekeeper's cooking." "Do you like it then?" He asked expectantly as he stared at her.
She nodded. "It's delicious. The taste is unique." She took another bite and it was indeed tasty.
"It's good that you like it," he replied, after seeing the satisfied smile on her face. At least his effort didn't go to waste.
"Where did you buy this?" She asked.
"I made it." Everleigh almost choked on the food when she heard it. She gagged and struggled to say, "Water... Water..." Theodore was helpless to see her surprised reaction. He poured her a cup of water and patted her on the back. "There's no need to be this surprised." She felt much better after having swater. There was still a faint soreness in her throat. She still sounded astonished. "Since when did you learn how to cook?" "Since you're not good at cooking, I've decided to take over the job. I'll learn and do everything that you're bad at, so you can just focus on your things." He sounded serious. He didn't look like he was joking at all.
She was startled. She had never once imagined that a man from the Godfrey family would cook for her. No one would ever believe it.
However, she enjoyed it.
Her heart fluttered every single the did something for her.
"Actually, you don't have to do this," Everleigh said.
"Isn't it a good thing forto complement you?" Theodore asked with a charming tone. He gazed deeply at her, as if he was trying to see through her heart.
Her cheeks turned red after hearing his words. She didn't know how to respond.
"Con, eat up. Aren't you on duty tonight?" He asked. He didn't want to force her to give an answer.
He would just continue doing whatever he wanted to.
She continued eating. She ate quite a lot of food that night. Perhaps it was due to his words.
"I'll make you your favorite food tomorrow." "Do you still remember my favorite food?" She asked.
"Of course I do." His intention was simple. He just wanted to show her that he would never forget a thing about her.
Hey there! Just a friendly reminder that if you're not reading this book on nel5s.org, you might be missing out op the complete story. Head over there to dive into the next chapter-it's all free! Their eyes met. Theodore felt every emotion in her gaze. He was never a cheesy person. Back then, he wouldn't even say anything nice to please her.
Yet now, he wasn't shy at all to say those cheesy words.

"Umm, letget back to work. Drive safe," she said. It seemed like she was trying to escape the awkward situation.
Watching her flee the office, his smile beceven sweeter.
Right at that moment, his phone rang. It was Moses. Theodore'sm expression turned cold. He had almost forgotten about the 'danger' outside. "Speak." "We've caught them. Mr. Godfrey, would you like to cover?" He asked in a solemn tone. He wasn't sure what to do with them.
"I'll be right there." Theodore got up and left the hospital.
At the back alley of the hospital, there were roughly eight people who were beaten up. They were all tied up together.
"Mr. Godfrey," Moses greeted. There were a few more bodyguards standing behind him.
Before Theodore could say anything, Caleb and Reid walked over from the other side. They were shocked to see him.
"The two of you can go back now. I'll take care of this," Theodore said in a deep voice.
Reid asked, "Mr. Godfrey, if I may ask, who are these people?" "You don't have to know. Your job is just to keep Everleigh safe," Theodore answered coldly.
He would never let anyone else know about it.
Reid wanted to continue, but Caleb stopped him. He said, "Understood. Mr. Godfrey, if there's nothing else, the two of us will leave now." Theodore didn't reply to them. He stood there and watched them leave.
After they left, Moses spoke, "I've already asked them. They were sent here by Mr. Godfrey to hurt Miss Trevino."
