Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 497

Listening to Everleigh's voice, Theodore couldn't hide the smile in his eyes. "You're quite familiar with this place, aren't you?"

"I used to come here often with Christopher and Cecil. Although this place looks messy, the food is very authentic." As she said that, she remembered that she really missed the food when she was abroad. It was a local specialty food.

He smiled lightly and said, "It seems like you really know it well."

"Of course, the other cuisines are boring. On the other hand, food like this is really exciting. This is the real deal," she responded. As soon as she finished saying that, the delicious lamb kebabs were served.

Upon hearing her words, the owner of the restaurant smiled, "This lady right here is really wise. Many other foods are not as delicious as this."

"That's why I'm here. Please give us a bottle of beer and a glass of fruit juice, thank you!" Everleigh requested politely.

"Right away!"

Shortly after, the drinks were served. She poured herself a glass of beer, but she gave Theodore the fruit juice. After all, he had to drive.

He understood why, so he called Moses. "Come and pick me up later. I'll send you my location." After that, he hung up the phone and took a sip of the beer in her hand.

"Let's drink together," he said as he took a bite of lamb kebab and drank a sip of beer.

It was really hearty and satisfying.

The both of them didn't drink much, but they ate a lot of food.

Everleigh ate the last kebab, placed the skewer stick on the plate and let out a burp in satisfaction. "Wow, the food is indeed amazing."

"I'll bring you for some grilled meat next time." Theodore recalled that they used to love eating grilled meat together in the past, and it was an unforgettable memory.

"Sure."

After they settled the bill, they walked back to the hospital to help speed up their digestion.

Moses arrived as soon as they reached the hospital.

"Let's go, I'll send you back home." Theodore opened the car door for her. Everleigh then sat in the backseat together with him.

The two of them discussed the tasty food along the car ride, and the atmosphere was exceptionally harmonious.

It would be really great if they could remain like that.

When Everleigh arrived home, she went upstairs immediately to rest. Little did she know, chaos was already going on in the Jenkins family.

The first thing that Yeezoo did after being released was to look for Saniogo. He initially thought that as brothers for decades, Saniogo would at least do something to help him get out.

Unexpectedly, he didn't care about him at all. Saniogo had abandoned him and left him to suffer in jail.

"Saniogo, have you forgotten about your promise to our parents? You said that you would take good care of all your siblings, but now, you don't even care about us just because you're in charge of the Jenkins family!" Yeezoo shouted in a thunderous voice, as if he wanted to destroy the house.

Annie, who was sitting aside, was shocked to see such a scene. Yeezoo looked nothing like the friendly man he was before.

Saniogo, on the other hand, looked at him with an emotionless face, as if he was looking at a stranger.

Annie looked at Yeezoo's expression, and felt rather awkward. She was an outsider, so it wasn't appropriate for her to say anything. However, she could tell that his words were terribly wrong. Even parents wouldn't dare to discipline their children for their whole lives, not to mention an elder brother.

"Saniogo, you..."

"Yeezoo, if you're unhappy with it, feel free to start your own business. I'll keep your shares for you, but I'll use it to cover the losses that you've caused this time," Saniogo said everything that he wanted to say.

Yeezoo was rather infuriated. "You..."

"Uncle, do you really want everyone to know what you've done? If you're still insisting on keeping your shares, I can sue you right now. I'd really like to see who has the guts to bail you out again," Alexander's last sentence was directed at Annie.

She was stunned, and she turned her head to look at his cold face.

"Alexander, I..."

"Annie, although we have a good relationship, I hope you can understand that this is an internal matter within the Jenkins family. Even if it's Aunt Missha's instruction, someone from our family should've done it instead," Alexander expressed his dissatisfaction in a straightforward manner.

Business and personal relationships should be separated at all times. It had always been one of his life principles.

Hearing that, Annie lowered her head and spoke in a guilty tone, "I was just worried about Cynthia. Otherwise, I wouldn't have..."

"Miss Lawson, Alexander's words might have been a little too harsh, but this is a family matter within the Jenkins family after all. You've really crossed the line this time," Saniogo said. In fact, he wanted to use that opportunity to teach Cynthia a lesson, but someone else had disrupted his plan.

Yeezoo was even worse, and actually had the audacity to confront him. Saniogo was really disappointed to have such a brother.

There was nothing else Annie could say. If her actions would cause Alexander to dislike her, she would definitely not do it again.
