Chapter 45 I Would Not Allow It

Although Everleigh did not finish her sentence, Stainley knew what she meant.

"How are things between you two?"

Everleigh played dumb. "Who? What do you mean?"

After noticing that she did not want to talk about it, he did not pester her and changed the topic. "Nothing, let's eat. You should eat a bit more."

When they were studying abroad, Everleigh never mentioned Theodore. If Stainley had not seen them dating when they were in college, he would never have known that they were together. After lunch, Everleigh and Stainley left the cafeteria together.

It was in the afternoon. She had a dispute with the production team earlier. Hence she was not in a hurry to go back. She found a shaded area in the hospital garden and rested there.

"Thank you, Stainley. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to have lunch. The cafeteria food is pretty good."

"If you like it, you can come here for lunch after this."

"I don't think that's a good idea. None of the crew are supposed to enter the cafeteria."

"It'll be fine," Stainley explained, "The dean of Jackson Hospital is worried that the crew members will disrupt things in the hospital. Yet, you're a doctor, so I just need to tell the dean, and you'll be able to go in."

Initially, Everleigh wanted to refuse his offer. After all, it was not good for her to receive special treatment. However, she recalled that Alastair, who seemed indifferent to everything, loved chicken chop. In the end, she accepted the offer shamelessly. "Thank you."

"You don't have to be so reserved around me."

They were chatting when a figure walked to them. It was a middle-aged man in a suit. He scanned the surroundings before going to Everleigh. He asked, "Are you Miss Everleigh Trevino?" Stainley and Everleigh were taken aback.
