Deep Love Hidden From Him

Chapter 275

Theodore gazed at the scenery outside the window. His smirk stayed on his face for quite a long time, and his gaze was chilling.

There was no fury in his heart, only sadness and remorse. If he spent more time on the investigation, things might not have escalated like this.

Josephine went home with a heavy heart. Upon seeing her, Jefferson rose up from his seat and asked, his eyes shimmering with hope, "How did it go? What did Theodore say?"

Her face stiffened and she looked at her father in a daze. She wanted to speak, but she couldn’t find her words.

She couldn't bring herself to admit all that she had done in the past to her father.

When he saw her expression, he was disappointed, "You failed."

She lowered her head and burst into tears. Her crying eventually escalated into loud sobs. Finally, she crouched on the ground and said, "Dad, don't ask anymore. Theodore won't let us go."

Hearing this, Jefferson staggered and almost fell down, and his eyes gradually went from hopeful to despair.

In that spacious room, all that could be seen was a man of age sitting on a couch, greatly dismayed; on the other hand, Josephine was weeping too. Both of them were very down. She knew that Theodore was a man of his word; he acted on everything he said.

At this time, her cell phone rang, shattering the silence into pieces.

It was a call from Madison. Josephine's spirits were lifted up when she saw the caller ID; how could she have forgotten Madison's presence?

As if her savior had come, she picked up and answered with a forlorn tone, "Hello, Aunt Madison."

"What's the matter with you?" Madison heard her tone and asked with a frown.

An idea popped up in Josephine's head and she cried even harder, "Aunt Madison."

Madison heard her cries and she was slightly annoyed by it, "Don't just cry, talk properly."

The core value of a woman of the Godfrey family was that they were constantly calm and rational. Crying was the last thing they would do, and the worst resort as well.

She couldn't believe that after Josephine had spent so much time with her, she still didn't get the point. Could she be anything other than an obedient person?

Josephine heard the annoyance from her tone, but it wasn't time to care about it. "Aunt Madison, Theodore believed in Everleigh's accusations, and he is not going to let my family off. I think there's no way I can get out of this."

Hearing this, Madison's face suddenly turned cold. The fact that Theodore listened and believed in Everleigh angered her even further.

Why was it that wherever she went she would hear about Everleigh all the time?

Why couldn't this woman disappear from the Earth?

As the other person on the line went silent, Josephine's confidence slipped away. She knew that the relationship between Madison and Theodore was pretty rough and that if she was to talk about this at this moment, it would make things worse. Alas, she did not have much time left.

The next morning would be the starting point of her family's destruction.

After a long time, Madison asked in a low tone, "What the hell is going on?"

"Everleigh told Theodore that I was involved in the incident seven years ago. I don't know where she got the fake information, but Theodore truly bought it. I went to see him and explained it to him, but he almost strangled me to death. Aunty, I've been wrongfully accused. Everleigh and I were best friends at that time, so why would I do that? You know who I am." Josephine purposely made it sound as if she was the victim, and people would have thought that she was the one that was hurt.

However, Jefferson, who was still sitting on the sofa near her, felt suspicious of her sudden change.

He had no idea what she had done back then, but she suddenly told him a few years ago that she would be together with Theodore for sure.

Even though Theodore seemed indifferent every time he came over, Jefferson never felt that anything was wrong because everyone knew that he was the living Darth Vader.

Since he took over the Godfrey family, they had been doing better than before.

However, when he heard her words, it was obvious that she meant something else.

"What on earth did she do a few years ago?" He thought.

On the other side of the phone, Madison trembled with anger. Although she was not entirely satisfied with Josephine's family background, she was still satisfied with her temperament. When she heard that this matter started because of Everleigh, it really pushed her buttons.

"I know what to do." After finishing her words, Madison hung up the phone.

Josephine heard the dial tone on the phone but she was not angry at all. Ultimately, Madison was her only hope.

She had to rely on her to protect the Bailey family.This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

Soon after, Madison called Theodore.

Meanwhile, he was in the caron his way to visit Everleigh in the hospital. Since he discovered everything that happened seven years ago, he knew how ridiculous he had been. He was no longer asking for forgiveness, but he merely wanted to check on her.

Before he drove, he saw the caller ID. His eyes slightly squinted and the corners of his mouth curled into a sneer.

He could guess why his mother called him. Josephine would definitely use every method to save the Bailey family.

It was not surprising that she sought help from his mother.

Theodore pressed the answer button and asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter?"

"Theodore, what did you do? Is it worth it to do such a thing for Everleigh?" Madison just wanted to kill her at this point.

Realization dawned upon her that as long as Everleigh was here, she would not have peace.

Theodore started the car engine regardless of Madison's fury.

Then, he said in a deep voice, "It's up to me to decide whether it's worth it or not. Do you think that after so many things you've done, the Godfrey family will not be affected at all?"

Putting aside what happened seven years ago, Everleigh would still never forgive the Godfrey family for what had happened earlier.

Hearing his words, Madison's face darkened slightly, and she said in a gloomy tone, "Who do you think I did this for?"

"Don't use this as a reason to hurt me. You shattered my dreams and hurt the woman I love the most. If you were not my mother, do you think you can still call and talk to me?"

Madison was so angry that she couldn't breathe. In the end, he did everything for Everleigh.

What was so good about this woman? She was nothing but a self-righteous prick!

"Very well... My son, I shouldn't have given you the position."

"Even if you didn't, it would eventually be mine anyway." Theodore hung up the phone as soon as he finished speaking.

He knew very well how he had achieved this position as CEO.

He could only forget the pain of Everleigh's departure by working day and night, but now that the truth was revealed, he was sure that he would never forgive himself for the rest of his life.

In the hospital, Everleigh was lying on the bed with Alastair and Adrienne accompanying her, so it was not boring at all for her.

On the other hand, Christopher and Stainley had brought them a lot of goodies. The two of them were in a hurry to attend to their patients, so the kids stayed to take care of their mother.

"Mommy, have a taste of this.'
