Chapter 227 Regret What? Theodore looked at Stainley and didn't seem to have any intention of greeting him. His cold expression was written all over his face.
Then, Everleigh coughed to break the stagnant atmosphere in the room. "Stainley, cin and have a seat. This is also your office in the future. I'll clean it up later." Stainley nodded and walked straight to the single sofa to sit down. There was only a table corner's distance between him and Theodore.
Adrienne looked at both men with her large eyes as she sucked on the lollipop. Then, she suddenly seemed to understand something.
This scene was often seen in TV s, when two men were going to fight over a woman. Very willingly, she sat down beside Theodore and was ready to watch the show. "Long tno see." Stainley took the initiative to greet Theodore.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTheodore replied flatly, "It's not been that long." The atmosphere beceven more awkward for a moment, and Adrienne silently swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
This was the truth. To Theodore, it wasn't long if it was for someone he didn't want to see.
At that moment, Everleigh poured a cup of tea and said, "Stainley, have stea." "Thank you," he said as he took the cup.
Then, Everleigh placed the other cup of tea in front of Theodore and asked, "Don't you need to go back to the ward to see Madam Scott?" "There's no need. Grandma has Alastair with her." As soon as he finished speaking, a puzzled look appeared in Stainley's eyes. Upon entering the room, he felt that it was weird that Adrienne and Theodore were in there together. When he heard Theodore's words, he beceven more confused.
Everleigh frowned and looked at Theodore. Then, she turned to Stainley and explained, "Madam Scott is not in good health and she is being treated in our hospital currently. Alastair, Adrienne and her are very good friends. Usually, when the two children are not in school, they will always go there." "I see." Stainley nodded thoughtfully. "No wonder." "No wonder what?" Theodore looked at him.
Stainley explained with a good temper. "No wonder you would show up here even though you're always so busy." "You're quite busy too right? Even then, you're still here." Stainley frowned.
Theodore's words carried a lot of weight, and even Everleigh could tell that something wasn't right. Thus, she couldn't help but feel awkward for him. "Stainley just started working in our hospital. Didn't you hear it just now? What's there to be idle about?" Theodore sneered, "He started work, and he's sitting here drinking tea, so isn't he idle?" Everleigh was angered by his aggression. Then, she said directly, "Do you think there's anything wrong with him drinking tea in his own office?" "In his own office?" Theodore turned to look at her and asked, "Is he sharing the soffice as you?" "This is what the hospital arranged. I don't need to report to you about it, right?" Sensing the fight brewing on the horizon, Adrienne immediately jumped down from the sofa. "Daddy, we've been out for a long time. It's tto go back! I have to rehearse!" Theodore originally wanted to say something, but he couldn't say much because of the child's presence. He immediately took Adrienne's hand and walked out. He didn't even turn his head, and one could even see his anger from his retreating form.

Stainley looked away from the door and said hesitantly, "What's wrong with him? He seems to be very unhappy. You two..." "Don't misunderstand." Everleigh directly interrupted his words and took a sip of the tea that Theodore didn't drink. "It's not what you think. I have no other relationship with him." He was stunned for a moment and asked after a while, "In fact, I wanted to ask you if you solved the misunderstanding between you two? You two seem more natural with each other." Everleigh paused for half a second and said with embarrassment, "It's kind of solved." "That's good. After all, you two will always meet in Ocpeace City. It's not good for anyone to always be a sore spot," Stainley said with a smile. "Let's not talk about him anymore. Are you free tonight? I'll treat you to dinner to celebrate the first day of my new job." Everleigh answered happily, "It's my turn to treat you. You've done so many favors forbefore." "You don't have to fuss about it. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future." After work, Everleigh took the children and went straight to the restaurant to eat with Stainley.
This was the first day of Theodore's discharge from the hospital, and it was also the first day that she didn't have to leave work to rush to the other hospital. When she got off work, she was still a little unaccustomed to it. Stainley chose a restaurant which had its own children's play area, and there was a special staff member who was responsible for taking care of the children.

Everleigh heard the playful voices from afar and said helplessly, "You're always so attentive. You even searched for a place to take care of these two little devils for dinner. I was afraid that they wouldn't be able to stay put." "Alastair is fine. He has been calm since he was a child. Adrienne is more active, but it's good that a girl is lively," Stainley said as he poured sjuice for Everleigh. "Thank you." "You don't have to be so polite with me. I had no idea that Christopher had returned to the country. I heard that he'd been sent to the outskirts by the hospital. Has he not returned?"
"No, he should have returned, but the hospital suddenly invested in a medical station in Gansen Village and Gangen the investor asked him to take charge of the project. It's had multiple delays so I don't know when he will cback." "I see, can he bear it? The living conditions in Gansen Village are quite tough." "He just likes to complain a lot, but he'll find a way to survive once we put him there. Have you forgotten how he got through when we were sent to Africa?" Stainley couldn't help but laugh when the memory crossed his mind, "Yeah."
"Those days were so hard. There wasn't even a safe place to sleep. We had to prepare to leave at any tanytand place, and our medical skills didn't meet the standards. It was even harder to go to the toilet or eat at all. But when I think about that time, I actually feel very happy." "Those days were hard, but happy." Stainley looked at Everleigh and said, "It was particularly fulfilling. I think about those days often and I miss it." "Yeah, I miss it very much." Over the past seven years, setting up the medical outpost in Africa was one of the only times she could forget the trauma and pain of seven years ago.
She got up early every morning and was so tired that she didn't even have the strength to take a bath. She fell asleep as soon as she touched the bed. In the middle of the night, she had to get up for patrols to avoid medicine and other goods being stolen by nearby refugees.
Looking at Everleigh's peaceful face, Stainley clenched the glass in his hand and said in a low voice, "But after that year when I went back, there was one thing that I had been regretting all the time." "Regret what?" Everleigh cto her senses and looked to the opposite side puzzledly.
