Chapter 425 Here Comes the Troublemakers

Theodore's eyes dimmed a little. Ever since Everleigh got together with him, she had never lived through a day comfortably, and now, things got even worse. He had almost ruined her reputation as a doctor.

"Just focus on the investigation, I'll be fine." Her gentle and comforting voice echoed in his ears.

She knew what was in his mind.

Sometimes, when two people were together, they could still read each other's thoughts without saying much.

They were the best example.

She rested at home for the whole day. In the evening, it began to rain. Looking at the misty sky, she felt really uneasy.

Adrienne and Alastair seemed to have sensed her discomfort, so they didn't dare to speak.

Abraham who was sitting on the sofa said, "Are you worried that something bad might happen?"

"There's this bad feeling in my heart, I just can't get rid of it," she said with a dull face. For the whole day, she hadn't received a text from Theodore.

She was really worried.

The matter was rather serious. It would be great if it could be settled privately, but if things got out of hand, it would be really troublesome.

The night gradually fell, and the message she had sent to Theodore was like a rock sinking into the sea. There wasn't any reply at all.

She couldn't rest well for the whole night. Instead, she listened to the pitter-patter of the rain outside. Her heart was trembling like the raindrops dripping on the roof, and the uneasiness in her heart was getting really strong. Her eyelids were twitching the entire time.

It wasn't until dawn that she could finally close her eyes and sleep.

When she woke up, it was already past eight o'clock. She felt a little hungry and went downstairs. Before she walked down the stairs, she saw Abraham resting on the sofa, watching the news on the television. The news reported that a group of people were protesting outside Theodore's company. They were the family members of the deceased.
