Hearing this, Everleigh looked at the time. If they wanted coffee, they could only get it from the cafeteria.
"There's coffee in the cafeteria but I'm not sure if you would like to have a cup there."
Missha was stunned, "Okay."
They arrived at the cafeteria and ordered two cups of coffee. It was actually instant coffee, but it tasted so much better than plain water.
"Coffee overseas definitely tastes better."
"But the tea in our country is also very good. It's just that you're not used to it," Everleigh explained. She thought home was the best.
Everything in the country was good.
"You, you really think I don't get it," Missha chuckled helplessly.
Everleigh smiled with embarrassment. It was good to appreciate one's own roots.
"Everleigh, come back for dinner if you have time." "Okay." She nodded.
The two of them sat and chatted. An hour passed very soon.
Everleigh looked at the time and said, "Aunt Missha, I'm going to check the wards. You should head back first. I'll bring the kids to see you tomorrow night."
"Okay, I won't keep you." Missha was bored, so she wanted to kill some time.
When Everleigh got off work, she saw Theodore at the entrance of the hospital, "Why are you here?"
"I said I'd pick you up from work. I just happened to have something to tell you." His expression did not look good.
She didn't understand; who was it that had provoked him causing that look on his face?
"Theodore, who provoked you?" She asked after getting into the car.
"Let's make a visit to the Jenkins. I have something to ask your aunt." He didn't answer her but drove directly towards the Jenkins family home.
This time, she was even more confused and started to wonder what her aunt had done.
Since he didn't want to tell her, she did not ask anymore. She would know when they got there.
At the Jenkins family manor.
Missha and Saniogo were sitting in the living room, looking at something. The butler came to inform them of Everleigh and Theodore's arrival.
Saniogo instructed happily, "Go and get dinner prepared. The two of them probably haven't eaten anything yet."
"Yes. I'll go right now." The butler was very helpless to see his master so happy. It seemed that he had to be ready to get meals prepared whenever Miss Trevino came over.
"Uncle, Aunty."
"Everleigh, come sit down. I told your aunt to have your room renovated. It used to be a guest room, but it still looks like one." As he spoke, Saniogo took out the design drawings on the coffee table.
It seemed that he was asking her which style she liked.
She took a look and noticed that they were all styles that Adrienne liked, so she said with a chuckle, "In fact, anything will be fine. I don't have any requirements for this."
"How can that be? I wanted to ask and see which you would like. If you don't like any of these, I'll get them to come up with some other designs again." It was obvious that Saniogo loved Everleigh very much.
When she heard that he was going to get someone to redesign it, she didn't want him to go through the trouble. Thus, she quickly picked a design that she liked.
Since they arrived, Theodore had been staring at Missha, but he didn't say a single word.
Missha felt someone was looking at her, so she looked over too, and asked "Why are you looking at me like this?"
He replied in a deep voice, "I have something to ask you, Aunt Missha. We'll talk about it after Everleigh is done choosing."
Everleigh turned her head to look at him. She was even more curious as to what this was about.
Saniogo didn't understand either, wondering what was going on.
"Go ahead."
