Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 324

Christopher saw that all of them were frowning, and he felt troubled deep down. "You guys should go inside. I'll bring her home when there's time."

"It doesn't matter if you come back or not, Christopher, as long as Everleigh comes back," Samuel said casually from the back.

He turned his head to look at Everleigh resentfully. "It's as if you're blood related to them."

"I wish that was the case, but it's not," Mrs. Meyer said helplessly with a tone of regret.

Everleigh smiled and said nothing. It felt good to be around this kind of atmosphere occasionally.

Alastair and Adrienne were the happiest because they received a lot of things.

Although Adrienne liked to eat, she also liked beautiful things. She looked at the new clothes and felt thrilled on the inside. She tried them on one by one.

Everleigh could feel Felicia's attention for detail. Every set of clothing fit the children well.

A few days later, she came to the hospital with a heavy heart. Dr. Harrison was waiting for her in his office. The report on the table had not been opened yet.

"Dr. Harrison."

"Here you are. Have a seat." He pointed at the chair in front of him.

"Dr. Harrison, where's my report?"

"Let's wait for a while. Christopher will be here soon," he said in a serious tone; the worry in his eyes could not be concealed.

Everleigh had likely guessed the situation as she noticed his expression.

Although she was very sad in her heart, it didn't matter. She had already prepared herself for this.

There was nothing to worry about.

When Christopher came in, Everleigh had already arrived.

"Dr. Harrison."

"Open it and have a look yourself." Dr. Harrison handed the lab reports to Christopher as his hand trembled; he was afraid to see the truth.

Although he was used to the circle of life and death, he would not be able to accept it if his beloved disciple passed away before he did.

Christopher took it over, opened it and had a look. The report showed that there was a seventy percent rate of infection detected.

His face suddenly changed a little, and he lowered his head in silence.

"How much is it?" Everleigh's voice was full of tension. It turned out she was still unable to believe that she was infected with this disease.

"We have to wait a few more months before we can confirm this. This report might not be accurate either. Let's not overthink it." He shoved the report into his pocket and refused to show it to her.

Dr. Harrison and Everleigh were not fools. Christopher's action had told them that the report might have shown a high percentage.

Everleigh's eyes suddenly turned red. It was impossible for her to pretend that she didn't know.

However, it was good for her; she could finally stop guessing. If she wasn't infected, she would be happy, but if she was, there was something conclusive and she wouldn't keep hoping.

The incubation period could be a few years. At least she had another few years with her kids.

"Everleigh, I don't believe that this will be the end. I will try my best and give my all for you to live."

"Dr. Harrison, you don't have to. Just let nature take its course. If I really did get infected with the disease and die young, it is my fate. If I don't have it, it will be best." Everleigh's tears flowed out of the corner of her eyes as she had a smile on her face. She didn't want them to worry about her.

She nodded. She had another few more days; it was enough for her.

When Christopher and Everleigh came out of Dr. Harrison's office, both of their hearts were heavy.

"Let's talk."

"Well, let's go to the restaurant outside. I've been wanting to try their food." Everleigh remembered a restaurant nearby the hospital with delicious food that she had been wanting to try.

Some things happened and she didn't have the mood to go before this.

They came to the restaurant and ordered her favorite foods.

"Why are you leaving? It would be the same if you stayed here." He didn't understand why she had to leave. His clear gaze was filled with sadness and unwillingness.

She forced a huge bite of food into her own mouth. True enough, she was unable to eat anything when her mood was down.

She finally experienced what it was like to force yourself to eat.

"Before this, you, Stainley, and I joined the aid team. It was a hectic time but it was when I was most happy. I was giving it my all to save every life. It doesn't matter what happens to me after this. I wish to help the ones in need with whatever I can; consider it my last contribution to the people." Everleigh's voice was soft but filled with sorrow.

She was unwilling to part with this world, and unwilling to part with herself.

"I wish we could go back to that period of time too. We would sit under the night sky filled with stars and talk about what had happened in the day. But... It's all in the past. If we didn't leave that time, would things be different today?" Stars were shining in his eyes as he reminisced about the past.

She didn't answer as she played with the cutleries in her hands.

"Don't tell anyone that I'm going to Africa yet, especially your family members. They are great people but I'm not a good daughter-in-law."
