Everleigh walked back to her office with great disappointment in her heart.

It would be wonderful if Xavier had really woken up, but unfortunately, it was just false hope.

Theodore heard about it too when he went over, but when he looked at Xavier lying on the bed, he felt a sense of loss.

In the evening, he brought Everleigh out for dinner. It had been a long time since they last had a good meal together. "You should eat more, you've been working very hard lately," he said.

"Alright." She ate a lot, but the more she ate, the more she felt choked.

She finally realized that she would lose her appetite when something was bothering her.

"Are you facing some problems?" He asked.

"What about you? Are you facing any problems?" She asked him back.

Her troubles had always been never-ending.

Both the Jenkins family and the Godfrey family were troubling her badly.

Theodore didn't answer her question. It wasn't that he didn't want to say anything, but he just didn't know how to say it.

Wilson was in control of Godfrey Group, and many things had been happening. It seemed that he wanted to take full control of everything and push Xavier out of the picture.

The two of them suddenly fell silent. That meal had become a depressing one for both of them. After the meal, he sent Everleigh back home. When she arrived at the door, he suddenly called out, "Everleigh." "Yes?"

"Nothing. Rest well." His eyes flashed, and he only spat out the sentence after a long while.

She nodded, turned around and walked in.

The truth was, the both of them knew that everything that had been happening recently was extremely tough and stressful, causing them to be on the verge of breaking down. They had a lot of things to tell each other, but they didn't know where to start.

Everleigh washed up and laid on her bed to rest. She took out her phone and hesitated on whether or not she should call Saniago.

However, what could she say to him if she decided to make the call? She pondered.

After thinking about it for a while, she gave up on the idea.
