Chapter 260 The Last Visit

Theodore didn't expect to run into Everleigh. Looking at the couple standing in front of him, they looked like a match made in heaven. It was hard for him to look at them. Everleigh noticed him as well. He had become very pale, and his lips were dry and cracked from dehydration. His dark circles and the redness in his eyes were all indications of lack of sleep. When he approached them, Christopher and Everleigh both stopped walking.

"I'm sorry about your grandmother's death, but I've done everything I can. I hope you can at least understand this," Everleigh said distantly, but the coldness in her eyes was hurtful to him. Theodore could sense that she had changed a lot when she first came back home. She was distant, but she always had warmth in her gaze. As of now, all that was left was numbness and coldness, as if she didn't care about anything else anymore.

Josephine hated the fact that Everleigh was safe and sound. Honestly, Madison ought to teach her a good lesson.

"Theodore, I believe that Everleigh had done whatever she could. I hope you can let this go soon, because no one can cheat death," Josephine said.

It was to Everleigh's surprise that she was present as well.

"Of course she fulfilled all her obligations. Only those with wicked minds would think that she would go as far as hurting people. Sometimes I don't understand what people are thinking, doing all those things that well deserve the wrath of nature," Christopher rebutted indifferently, as if he wasn't talking about them.

Anger crept up Theodore's face, and he looked at Christopher, who didn't show any fear as he stood face to face with him.

One was a charming man, while the other was like an ice prince. Standing next to one another, they were both equally attractive.

Everleigh also felt the abrupt change in the atmosphere around them. She immediately said, "I just want to tell you that no matter what your mother does, I have nothing to hide."

Upon hearing her words, Theodore felt his heart ache as if it had been torn apart. He looked at her sorrowfully.

"You..."

"Grandma's body is still in the morgue. If you want to pay your respects for the last time, you should go now. After all, given the circumstances, her body will be stored away." Everleigh didn't want to disclose too much of the details.

"I... I..." Theodore stammered as he wanted to say something else, but in the end, he couldn't. He had been reduced to an untrustworthy person in Everleigh's heart.
