Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Chapter 257 Negotiate Back

"Since Mr. Godfrey is so concerned about the hospital, I think I should recruit more talent, but in terms of funding..." Mr. Lawson cautiously probed, afraid that what he said would be wrong.

These days, those who were powerful had it all. There was no order of hierarchy to be found.

"Of course, I admire your business acumen," Theodore said in a deep voice before hanging up the phone.

Mr. Lawson was relieved when he heard the beeping sound coming from his phone. If Theodore really wanted to defend Everleigh, he should have done it earlier. There was no need to wait for Mrs. Godfrey to make her move and let the entire hospital pay the price for the war between them.

It was really... not easy to describe.

...

When Everleigh returned home, Alastair and Adrienne were playing with Selena in the living room. Since they moved in, Selena would come back home everyday.

"Mommy, you're back," Adrienne said as her entire face was smudged with ice cream. It looked very comical indeed.

Everleigh took out a tissue from her bag and wiped Adrienne's face. "Why are you so careless? How many did you eat today?"

"Only one. If you don't believe me, you can ask Alastair," she said, pointing at her brother with her hand.

Alastair sat quietly on the sofa, reading a book. He ignored Adrienne as his sister was a professional liar especially when it came to food.

Seeing the behavior of the two siblings, Selena couldn't help laughing for a while.

Everleigh was a little stunned when she saw this. They hadn't talked much since the last time they spoke. Now that Selena was smiling like this, it made her reminisce about her childhood. "What are you looking at? Haven't you seen someone laugh before?" Selena noticed that they were all staring at her, especially Everleigh, who looked a little unnatural. Everleigh nodded seriously and said, "Indeed, I haven't."
