Deep Love Hidden From Him

Chapter 578

Alexander's expression was cold, not because of Theodore' words, but because what he said was true.

Suppose the Jenkins family members weren't united. If it wasn't for his father keeping a watch over the Jenkin family business, they probably wouldn't have been able to hold themselves back long ago.

Several people fell into silence. At that moment, Luqman came down the stairs. His face was pale, and he walked out without looking back. NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

Linggon hung up the phone and came over. He looked at his father walking out without looking back and hurriedly shouted, "Dad, Dad, what are you going to do?"

Alexander and the others all looked in the direction of the door. They couldn't understand what was going on with them.

"Alexander, what happened to my father?" Linggon asked, puzzled.

"I don't know either. Go ask your uncle," Alexander replied.

When Linggon was about to head upstairs, Saniogo walked down with a grim expression and looked at Linggon. "Your father has something to do, so he went back. If you're worried, you can go back and have a look,"

"Yes." Linggon was indeed very worried and he left immediately.

Everleigh felt that that day's event was humiliating. She just wanted to see her elders and others were not showing them respect. She couldn't bear it, let alone whether Cecil would be angry or not.

"Cecil, I'm really sorry for today. Since you're here, we should treat you with hospitality, but..." Saniogo looked embarrassed. The gathering was going smoothly until everything took a wrong turn.

She smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. Anyway, I am used to it. Cynthia doesn't like me and that's not unusual. Mr. Jenkins, you don't have to take it personally."

"That's good. I will take good care of you the next time you visit. As for those people, they won't appear again," Saniogo heaved a sigh of relief. It was rare for a young lady to not care.

If word got out, the reputation of the Jenkins family would be jeopardised.

Saniogo looked at Theodore, but he didn't seem to care. They already knew that he was together with Everleigh. He really didn't need to put up with their

attitudes.

"Mr. Godfrey..."

"Mr. Jenkins, you don't have to explain. If Everleigh doesn't mind, I won't mind either," Theodore responded calmly. He hadn't spoken much ever since he'd arrived. The main purpose was that he and Everleigh had come to meet them.

Saniogo nodded. Although he spoke in this manner, he still felt a little guilty.

The sky had turned dark. Everleigh and Theodore left, while Cecil stayed behind to stay for the night.

When Alexander and Cecil sent them off, he said, "Everleigh, come back more often if you have the time."

"Of course I'll come back. From now on, I'll come to the Jenkins family to see Cecil," she replied in a teasing tone.

Cecil blushed slightly and felt a little embarrassed. Although it was not the first time, she was somewhat unaccustomed to hearing these words.

Everleigh didn't say anything more. She turned and got into Theodore's car. They drove away.

Inside the car, she asked him, "Why did you say that to Alexander?"

"Everleigh, do you think I crossed the line?" He replied.

She shook her head. It wasn't that she felt it was too much, but that he seemed to know everything.

He smiled faintly and said in a low tone, "In fact, Luqman has always been dissatisfied with Saniogo. The Jenkins family is in Saniogo's hands. If Luqman wants to be in control of that, it will be difficult. Plus, Cecil and Alexander are together, so he's even more worried that Saniogo will join forces with the Hayes family. It's difficult for him to deal with his older brother."

She realized that the focus was on Cecil and Alexander. The Hayes family was compelling in terms of official and government power, and it could be said that a union of businessmen and officials would be strong.

If it was anyone else, they would have been wary of him.

However... Cecil and Alexander definitely didn't think so.

"Alexander is sincere towards Cecil," she said, confused.

"That's why Luqman was worried. Does your other cousin also have a girlfriend?" Theodore looked forward, a faint light shining in his deep gaze.

Everleigh thought for a moment. "Do you mean

Linggon?" "That's right,"

"He has a girlfriend. I heard from Alexander that my uncle seems to be very dissatisfied. He has been in a deadlock for a long time. Until now, he has not agreed to let her marry into our family."

"That's it. Your uncle wants to find a powerful person. If Cecil and Linggon were together today, it would definitely be a different story," he said with a chuckle.

Lugman wanted to find someone with power and influence. That way, he could challenge Saniogo.

Everleigh leaned back in her seat and smiled helplessly, "You've really observant,"

"It's not that I'm observant, but I knew that the Jenkins family was not harmonious in the early years. In the past, Lugman had always caused trouble because of your uncle. Gradually, Yeezoo gained a little power, but Lugman is a different person. He knows how to endure."

She was even more confused. What was he waiting for?

Since she came back, Lugman had been acting as if it had nothing to do with him. He had never felt that there was anything wrong with it.

"Everleigh, I don't have to know about the Jenkins family, but when I found out that you're the eldest daughter of the Jenkins family, I was distraught. The Jenkins family is huge and has all kinds of people. It's not like the Trevino family. Those from small families have true feelings for each other," Theodore's tone was full of worry. It could be seen that his previous concerns had appeared. These people's true colors were gradually appearing.

Everleigh was silent. She knew about this matter, but currently, she was already a member of the Jenkins family, so there was no reason for her to leave again. Fortunately, she was a woman and

would get married sooner or later, so it was not a big risk for them.

At this moment, Alexander was in Saniogo's study room. He had come to ask his father about what had happened with Luqman.

"Luqman doesn't want you to be together with Cecil," Saniogo spoke after a long pause.

Alexander's expression turned cold. "What does this have to do with him?"

"You know what kind of person Luqman is. He's been targeting my position for a long time. If I wasn't capable enough, I'm afraid that he would've taken everything away by now," Saniogo leaned further into his chair and sighed.

His heart was filled with mixed emotions. He did not know how to describe it. This was his own younger brother, but he was always thinking about how to plot against him.

Alexander's expressions became even colder. He said, "He's worried that the Hayes family will get involved in the relationship between me and Cecil, isn't he?"

"Yes, he explained that the Hayes family is currently in internal strife, and it's hard to say if she won't take the Jenkins family for granted. In my opinion, it is just an excuse he's looking for."

Saniogo spoke coldly. He still was able to differentiate right from wrong. He would not be manipulated so easily.

"Dad, I am sincere with Cecil. I am not with her because of the affairs of the Hayes family," Alexander was worried that his father would be shaken, so he explained quickly.
