Everleigh burst into tears at this moment. She finally realized in her heart that the dead were not as important as the ones who were alive.
"Mr. Carter, I don't care about the cause of my parent's death, as long as you are still alive. If something bad really happened to you, I will never forgive myself."
There was a hint of happiness in Elvir's husky voice. He knew what she was talking about, which was exactly why he wanted to do something about it.
"Don't worry, I'm fine now. I got caught up in the explosion. I'm recovering well and soon, I'll be good as new." He was anxious as well. This was no longer the favor he was doing for her but his problem too.
"Don't worry. You can come back when you recover." She wiped her tears and hurriedly persuaded.
"Alright."
He smiled and had an inexplicable feeling in his heart.
At this time, a nurse entered her office. "Dr. Trevino, there's a patient..."
Everleigh did not have the time to wipe off her tears. The nurse saw it and asked, "Dr. Trevino, are you too tired? Why are you crying?"
"Yes, I was just too tired. Let's go." After saying that, she hung up the call.
Elvir's survival must be kept a secret. No news could be leaked out.
Everleigh did not even tell Theodore about this. By the time Elvir returned, the truth would be known.
To make it more convincing, she pretended not to know a thing.
When she went back to the Jenkins family house, she looked soulless. Missha saw this and could not help but said, "Don't be too sad. Things have already happened. Why don't you..."
"Aunt Missha, I know. I'll be fine after a while. As for what happened to my parents, I will definitely get to the bottom of it."
Missha saw how determined Everleigh was, so she replied, "If you insist on it, I wish you success."
"Thank you for your support." Everleigh smiled and stopped talking.
Saniogo was also in a bad mood and was listless. He could not help but say, "Everleigh, you've lost a lot of weight recently." "Really? I haven't had much of an appetite recently." She looked down and spoke.
Saniogo was over fifty years old, so he was able to see through some things. "Don't be too sad and accept reality."
"I will. By the way, where is Aunt Melissa? Has she been here recently?" Everleigh almost forgot that it was possible that what Melissa said to be true. However, she just did not say it.
"After Cynthia's death, Yeezoo and Melissa have been depressed. I went to see them a while back, but they were both still in a daze."
"I'll go see her tomorrow," Everleigh said meaningfully.
"Okay, I'll accompany you, so that she won't do something stupid."
"No thanks. I have something to talk to her about. Aunt Missha, don't worry. I won't do anything to her." Everleigh did not want Missha to go there, otherwise, it might complicate things.
Missha was stunned but she nodded. Since Everleigh didn't want her to go, then she would not go.
Saniogo did not know what Everleigh would do, so he quickly advised her, "Everleigh, she's your aunt after all. Taking Cynthia into consideration, don't say too much."
Everleigh understood that she would not mention Cynthia in front of Melissa. All she wanted was to interrogate her. She wanted to find out certain things from her.
