Chapter 534
It just so happened that Everleigh also wanted to observe Leon's determination. If there was something amiss, she would make him leave.
"Thank you, my dear sister-in-law," Leon quickly said to appease her.
Everleigh and Theodore were on the same page. NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.
He was obviously jealous of him just then. Wasn't it just that he felt that he started living there whereas he himself had never done so?
Why didn't he think that the situation between them was not the same?
He and Everleigh both cared about each other. They even had children.
What did he have?
Even if he had a wife, his father and mother would never acknowledge her and would drive him out. If he didn't make a move, he would not have any children.
In that way, Leon stayed and had a good time with the two children. They were even talking to him in a sweet manner. Those who didn't know them would think that he was their biological father.
Theodore didn't leave until evening. Everleigh sent him out while he asked jealously, "When can I move in?"
Everleigh laughed out loud. She knew that he had been holding it back for a long time.
"I knew that you deliberately didn't want Leon to stay. Aren't you cousins? How can you do this?"
"Hmph, I can't even get to see my wife everyday. Who is he to stay together with her before they even get married?" His eyes were full of disdain as he complained.
She patted him on the shoulder. She said with relief, "The revolution hasn't succeeded yet. Keep working hard."
He put his arm around her waist and pulled her into his embrace. He lowered his gaze and said in a cold voice, "When do you think we'll be able to succeed?"
She stood on her tiptoes and kissed him gently on the lips, "We still need to wait."
He was satisfied with the kiss.
"You're smart."
"Go back. I'll go to the company tomorrow. I've been in the hospital these days, and the company's affairs have been postponed." "No, that isn't necessarily the case. Your scientific research is almost done. Besides, your new medicines are also in the trial stage, so there's no hurry," he comforted her.
She nodded. Indeed, she didn't have to be in a hurry.
A few days later, Ysabelle came back. Only Felicia knew about it, so she went to pick her up in person.
Ysabelle fell asleep in the car. Felicia drove slowly, and the journey would usually take an hour, but she took two hours instead.
"Your driving has become slower."
"If you hadn't fallen asleep, I wouldn't have driven so slowly."
Ysabelle chuckled, turned around, and entered the villa.
Christopher was recuperating in the hospital. When he heard that his eldest sister had returned, he started to lose his confidence. Looking at his own hand, he felt really helpless, "This girl was too vicious."
"You're speaking ill of me behind my back again." Brine's adorable face appeared, with dissatisfaction filling her big eyes.
He turned around and did not look at her.
She knew that she was in the wrong. She put down the lunchbox in her hand and sat on the chair beside him.
"You're still angry. You're a man. Can you not be so petty?"
"My sister is back. How can I go back to visit her in my current state?" He was not angry, but his current state was really...
"What does your sister's return have to do with your injury?"
He cast a glance at her as if he was looking at a fool. Although his two sisters both said that they disliked him, they were actually kind to him and could not bear seeing him getting hurt.
It was hard to tell how the two of them would react if they were to see him like that.
Erine forgot that others attached great importance to family affection. She coughed awkwardly and said, "Well, I'll go back with you."
"You'll go back with me..." At first, Christopher wanted to refuse, but when he thought of the blind date Felicia mentioned previously, he felt that it was better not to.
"Well, you should go back with me. Do me a favour. Felicia wants to introduce me to a girlfriend, but that woman is arrogant, and I don't like her. You can help me by pretending to be my girlfriend."
She was shocked when she heard him, "Are you trying to fool your sister? Are you kidding me?"
"Who's joking with you? I'm injured now. Are you going to ignore me?" Christopher pointed to his hand and reminded her of her own position.
She was not a person who was irresponsible. Moreover, there was no problem with her acting.
"Well, I promise you, but this won't happen again."
"No problem." When he saw that she had agreed, he was overjoyed. He had the problem solved for the time being.
At night, the villa of the Meyer family was brightly lit, and laughter sounded from the inside.
Erine and Christopher walked in. Apart from those of the Meyer family, there was one person from the Clark family; it should be the woman whom Christopher was supposed to meet on that blind date, Raina.
"Ysabelle, Felicia, let me introduce you to my girlfriend, Erine. She's an orthopaedist in the hospital." Christopher took her hand and walked up to them.
Of course, the most striking thing was the bandage on his hand.
Both Ysabelle and Felicia looked at his hand and asked, "How did your hand get hurt?"
"When I was driving, I accidentally hit the guardrail, so I had a fracture, but because of this, I got to know her," Christopher explained with a smile, but his eyes fell on Raina, who was sitting on the sofa.
Raina's face was pale, and she clenched her fists, trying to hold back her anger.
Both Vanessa and Samuel were smart. They quickly explained as soon as they noticed that there was something wrong with the atmosphere, "My child, didn't you know that Miss Clark would be coming over today?"
"I know, but I can't hide the truth from my girlfriend either," Christopher responded in a playful tone, looking at Raina's pale face.
"That's enough. Even if your Meyer family is from the Four Great Households, you can't fool with me like this." Raina got up angrily and glared at him.
When she heard about the Meyer family, she was delighted. At least the marriage between the Clark family and the Meyer family would increase the Clark family's social status. However, what she didn't expect was that she would be humiliated.
Felicia was the most embarrassed person. She was the one who arranged the blind date, but now that they were put in such an awkward situation, she didn't know what to say.
"Miss Clark, I want to know why you're angry with me. Don't you know that I'm well-known for being a womanizer? Felicia only asked you over for a blind date, not to get engaged with me."
"You... Christopher, don't go too far." Raina was furious and couldn't calm down. Could it be that it was her fault that she appeared there?
"Am I right? Why are you so agitated? Besides... Do you want me to expose what happened to you?" His last words were very sharp.
Brine looked at him. For the first time, she found that he was somewhat emotionally unstable. He used to always have a smiling face and fool around in the hospital, so she didn't expect him to be a tough character.
She had underestimated him after all. He was from a wealthy family, especially one of the Four Great Households.
Raina was also shocked, "What... What do you mean?"
"You want to use the connections of the Meyer family to pave your way. Your family's business overseas must have collapsed."
