Chapter 491
Chapter 491
Leon was holding Madison's report in his hand, which clearly stated that someone had deliberately covered up her medical report.
In other words, someone wanted her to die in prison.
He frowned slightly. "When did it start?"
"After she was arrested. I did it just because I didn't want her to be in danger. Who would've known..." Before Theodore could finish his sentence, his eyes dimmed a little.
Leon knew what had happened to Madison as well. Otherwise, why would the Allen family not make a move?
The Allen family knew how Theodore had been helping them over the years. No matter how displeased they were with Madison's actions, they didn't dare to do or say anything about it.
After all, they were much weaker compared to the Four Great Households. Sometimes, people just had to be realistic and sensible.
What's more, Theodore didn't go too far in how he treated Madison.
Hence, it was reasonable.
"Have you found out who did it?" Leon asked.
"I do have a person in mind, but I'll have to confirm it," Theodore replied calmly.
"It's up to you to make the call. Logically speaking, my aunt is no longer considered a member of the Godfrey family. Everyone in the Allen family really appreciates everything that you've done for her." Leon spoke with a sorrowful voice.
It was a common problem among wealthy families. Familial love meant nothing to them. The most important thing was self-interest.
Theodore glanced at Leon and felt that he had become a completely different person.
"I have to go now, there are a lot of problems in my company too," Leon said.
"Are you talking about the acquisition of the company? Leon, the entertainment industry is pretty messed up. If you can't manage it well, the only thing that you'll get is a huge financial loss," Theodore advised him straightforwardly.
He wasn't trying to scare him, but if entertainment companies weren't managed well, they would really go bankrupt.
As expected, Leon was unhappy after he heard it.
"I have great goals and ambitions, how would I fail in such a simple thing? Don't try to discourage me," he argued.
Theodore let out a cold snort and didn't say anything more.
After Leon left, Theodore went to the hospital to visit Xavier after sorting out his company's matters.
Everleigh was also in a bad mood because of Xavier's situation. She visited him often.
Sometimes, she would just sit there in his ward and get lost in her thoughts.
However, the nurse didn't leave the room at all.
The only reason she would leave was to go to the bathroom.
All her meals were delivered to the ward as well.
When Theodore went over, it was already noon. The nurse had ordered takeout for Everleigh, and she was eating the food.
"Aren't you busy?" He asked as soon as he entered the room.
The two ladies in the room were both shocked.
"Not really," Everleigh replied.
"Mr. Godfrey," the nurse greeted.
Theodore nodded, and sat next to Everleigh. Then, he directly took the fork in her hand and started eating her food.
Looking at the scene, the nurse was dumbfounded. That man couldn't be Theodore, could he? She thought to herself.
His behavior was rather different from what the others had described.
"How's Xavier today?" He asked.
"Just as usual, there isn't any progress," Everleigh said in disappointment. When Loraine woke up from her coma last time, it was already considered a miracle. She didn't know if the miracle would happen to Xavier or not.
After hearing that, Theodore didn't say anything as he ate the food quietly.
After the meal, he sat next to his brother and spoke in a deep voice, "Someone from the Allen family met me today. Madison has been set up in prison, and all her medical examination reports were tampered with."
Everleigh, who was sitting aside, was a little surprised when she heard it. Theodore had really listened to what she had said earlier.
"Have you investigated it?" She asked.
"Yeah, the result isn't out yet, but it'll be out soon. Xavier, I know that deep in your heart, you still love Mom very much, even though she has abandoned you," Theodore said.
His calm eyes were filled with emotions when he said that.
Everyone could feel his emotions.
Everleigh lowered her head, pressed her lips together, and remained silent while she listened to Theodore speak.
He picked up a wet towel on the table and wiped Xavier's hands clean. He continued, "You must avenge yourself. As your older brother, I can't help you with it. I promise I won't touch Wilson. He's all yours."
Everleigh looked up and chuckled, "Why are you describing your father like a lifeless object?"
"Isn't he?"
She didn't know what to say. There seemed to be nothing wrong with his words.
The two of them stayed in the ward for the whole afternoon, and only went back at night. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
"Everleigh, I know that this period of time has been really hard for you," Theodore stated.
"You don't have to say such things to me," she smiled and replied. He had said the same thing to her before, and now it was her turn to say it back.
His eyes sparkled as he looked at her silently.
After a long while, he finally nodded. "Alright."
His one single word contained a lot of feelings and meanings. She could feel it, but she chose to ignore it.
When she was previously in trouble, he had stayed by her side, so it was her turn to return the favor.
Life was full of ups and downs. She had always believed in that quote, and she finally experienced it.
It would be a good thing if someone stuck with her through thick and thin.
Everleigh received a call from Saniogo as soon as she returned home.
It wasn't the first time he had called her.
Her eyes were dim. She hesitated for a moment and declined the call.
She had been very busy dealing with the Godfrey family's problem lately, and she didn't want to look for another trouble for herself.
Plus, she had a rather biased impression of her uncle.
Hence, it was better for them to not meet for the time being.
When Saniogo heard the sound of the call being disconnected, his heart froze as he switched off his phone.
Seeing that, the butler couldn't help but ask, "Master Jenkins, has Miss Everleigh gone a little too far by doing this? Why doesn't she trust you?"
Saniogo sighed, "She has strong feelings for her late parents, especially since I've hidden a part of the truth from her. I can understand why she's blaming me."
"Master... You're just too kind. Doesn't she know who you've done all this for?" The butler was really speechless with Saniogo's attitude.
He had been working for Saniogo for almost half a century, so he had seen everything.
The older he was, the wiser he became.
Saniogo raised his hand slightly, signaling him to stop talking about it.
Everleigh probably just couldn't accept the truth for the time being. It would take her some time. He tried to convince himself.
Alexander returned home and noticed his father's worried look. He walked over and asked with concern, "Dad, you look troubled. Is there something wrong?"
"Nothing."
"You don't look fine at all. Just tell me, let's see if there's anything I can help you with," Alexander said comfortingly.
However, there was no trace of comfort in his eyes.
Saniogo glanced at him and kept silent. Then, he got up and went straight back to his own room.
Alexander opened his mouth and wanted to call him, but no words came out of his mouth. He then turned his head and looked at the butler who was standing aside.
"Butler, you should know what is going on, come on, tell me," Alexander asked politely.
"Mr. Alexander, you must be joking. I'm just a butler, how would I know anything about Master Jenkins' matters?"
Alexander didn't believe the butler's words. With the close relationship that he had with Saniogo, how could he not know anything?
