Chapter 201
After the meal, the three took the children and said goodbye at the restaurant's entrance. Yvonne's family driver was already waiting at the door.
After Hansen got into the car, Yvonne turned around and talked to Everleigh, "I misunderstood you last time. I'll make another contract when I go back. If it's possible, I still hope you can be Hansen's family doctor."
Everleigh said, "I still can't sign the contract. I'm sorry about what happened before."
After all, she hid the truth of the kidnapping case and that was why there was a misunderstanding. She felt guilty over what happened to Yvonne and Hansen.
"It's really okay." Yvonne looked relaxed and smiled gently. "It's sort of a good thing. If it wasn't for that, I wouldn't be in this situation now. Speaking of which, I have to thank you."
Hearing this, Everleigh felt ashamed of herself and felt very guilty.
"Enough, don't refuse it anymore. Even if you don't sign the contract, I still hope that you can often come and see Hansen like before.
Loraine also misses you very much. Is that okay?"
Everleigh immediately nodded and agreed, "No problem."
"Well, that's settled then. I'll go first. Drive safely on your way back." Yvonne looked over Everleigh's shoulder and greeted Cecil who was behind her. "Miss Cecil, see you later."
Cecil nodded politely and said, "Goodbye."
Watching the white car leave, Everleigh and Cecil took the children to the parking lot.
Cecil sighed. "It's no wonder that Wilson ditched his wife for a beauty then."
"Why?" Everleigh, who was carrying Adrienne, turned to look at Cecil.
Cecil raised her eyebrows. "Compared to Madison, who is cruel and merciless, Girls like Yvonne are men's favorite, aren't they? She doesn't seem aggressive at all."
"Yvonne is indeed a good person."
"I didn't say that she's a good person."
"Hmm?" Everleigh was slightly stunned.
Cecil opened the car door and said, "To be able to survive in the Godfrey family safely and soundly for so many years, if a person doesn't have power like Madam Scott does, how could that person survive there with clean hands? I don't think she's as innocent as she looks like." "You're overthinking it, aren't you? It's not that exaggerating."
Everleigh smiled and didn't take Cecil's words seriously.
Cecil's childhood environment was different from other people's. She was used to all kinds of deceptions. Therefore, when she came across this kind of internal struggle within aristocratic families, she always had more complicated thoughts than others.
The Godfrey family was indeed complicated, but after all, Yvonne had not lived in that family for more than 20 years, so it should not be as Cecil said.
On the way back, Cecil drove the car.
"I'm not interested in whether she is a good person or not. I just want to remind you to be careful about everything. Don't trust others too much."
"I know. Don't worry, I'm not a child anymore."
The two children in the back seat fell asleep with their heads down. Everleigh covered them with her coat and lowered her voice.
"Aren't you going home today?"
Over the past few days, Cecil had been living in Everleigh's house. In addition to going to the jewelry store every day, she also went to the hospital to wait for Everleigh to get off work so that they could go to dinner together. She had not returned to her apartment in a few days. Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
"What's wrong? Can't I live in your house? Do you think that I'm annoying?"
"I didn't say that. Isn't it convenient for you to live above the jewelry store? You said that you were too lazy to commute, so you rented the two-storey building. Why don't you want to live there now? You keep running back and forth with me."
Saying this, Cecil averted her eyes and said vaguely, "It's not comfortable living there."
Everleigh had been busy all day, so she was a little sleepy. She didn't notice Cecil's weird reaction. She yawned and leaned back in the seat and said, "Your apartment is like a showroom. How can it be comfortable? You can live with me first. I'm sleepy, so I'll take a nap. Wake me up when we get home."
"Alright."
Cecil held the steering wheel and looked at the rearview mirror from the corner of her eyes. She suddenly asked, "Everleigh, do you still remember how long I stayed at your house during the summer vacation during our third year?"
"Third year?" Everleigh rolled her eyes and said with a drowsy face, "Didn't you participate in the design competition during our third year? Didn't you come back then leave after two days?" "Why are you suddenly asking this?"
"Oh, nothing. I'm just asking. You can sleep now."
After Everleigh closed her eyes, Cecil turned up the temperature of the air conditioner and her grip on the steering wheel tightened slightly. Looking at the street in front of the windshield, she suddenly looked a little dignified.
The night gradually grew darker.
In the living room of the villa in Swallow Hill, Mrs. Godfrey had just drank some tea and was reading a magazine on the sofa.
Her phone on the table suddenly lit up and a WhatsApp message popped up.
Seeing the sender's name, Mrs. Godfrey frowned and was a little impatient. Nonetheless, she took her mobile phone and glanced at the message. The moment she saw the picture, she straightened her back, opened the contact list and immediately dialed a phone number.
"Hello? What's the matter with these photos?"
A gentle voice came from the other end of the phone, "You haven't slept yet?"
"I'm asking you, what's with these two photos?"
"I just had dinner in the restaurant and happened to meet them. I don't know what's going on. I just saw that they seemed to have a good relationship and felt that something was wrong, so I asked someone to check... Then, I found out that Yvonne's child was also with Madam Scott today."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Godfrey's face fell immediately. She said, "Impossible. Don't you know how much Madam Scott hates that woman? She hasn't seen her two illegitimate children in so many years, so why would Yvonne let her child go to the hospital?"
"I didn't believe it at first. Then my friend from the hospital sent me the photos. The child really came out of Grandma's ward. I heard that they had fun and talked for a while. Then, Yvonne picked him up later."
"What's wrong with Madam Scott? Has someone cast a spell on her?"
"Madison, don't worry. I think it's because of Everleigh."
"Everleigh? What does this have to do with her?" "Grandma likes Everleigh and also her two children. Yvonne's child and the two children are in the same class, so it is not difficult for her to mediate among them." At this point, the voice on the other side of the line was slightly softer and seemed to be a little nervous. "Previously, I thought Yvonne would not have a good relationship with Everleigh for no reason, so I think..."
Mrs. Godfrey's expression changed and her hand, which was holding her phone, trembled slightly. "This woman, I have known that she was a jinx for a long time. Is she taking revenge on me?"
"Aunt Madison, it's not that serious, is it?"
"It's not that serious? I've already moved to Swallow Hill. How serious do you want it be?"
Ever since she moved from Yoreast Hills to Swallow Hill, Mrs. Godfrey's temper had been growing worse day by day. Josephine was good- tempered instead, and she always coaxed her with a soft voice on the phone.
"Aunt Madison, please calm down first. In fact, it's easy to solve the problem if Everleigh was really put in the middle."
"Why? Do you have any ideas?"
"The Trevino family." The voice on the other side of the phone was distant. "Although she doesn't admit it on the surface, her father is her biggest weakness."
