Everleigh knew what he was trying to say, but it was really hard for her to do so.
"Forget it, let's not talk about it." She didn't want to think about it anymore. There was an increase in patients with heart disease recently and their conditions were quite serious.
"Recently, you have used all your new medicines but the effect is still not obvious," Christopher said.
She nodded and understood that while her medicine was effective, it was not enough to deal with those serious heart diseases.
Her medicine was not a miracle cure after all.
"I need to observe more. If it doesn't work, I'll see Dr. Harrison and discuss it with him."
"Dr. Harrison went abroad for a lecture. Don't tell me you don't know about that," he explained.
She was stunned. She really didn't know this. To be frank, she didn't even know the policies of the hospital up until now.
If it wasn't for her ability in the research of new medicine, Benedict would have fired her long ago.
Everleigh smiled awkwardly. "You're right. I really
don't know anything."
The corner of Christopher's mouth twitched. "Forget it. You're the treasure of the hospital now. It's okay if you don't know."
"Dr. Harrison has been gone for four days. He left when you were on leave. He even asked why you didn't see him off." Christopher imitated Maxwell's voice and made her laugh so hard that her stomach hurt.
In fact, he really sounded like Maxwell.
Christopher rolled his eyes at her. "What are you laughing at?"
"I think your acting is quite successful." Her laughter was louder. Seeing that she was laughing so much, he didn't say anything more.
In the afternoon, Elvir sent a text message telling her that it was difficult to find that person. It might take a long time to do it. In addition, Hallowy City was huge and it had been so many years. Hence, she could only... make preparations for the long term.
She didn't care. As long as she could find him, it didn't matter how long it would take.
As long as he was alive, she would not give up.
She replied, "Thank you, Mr. Carter."
These words represented the gratitude in her heart.
That night, Everleigh and Theodore went to the beach. After they arrived, many people were there. Other than couples, there were some families too. There weren't many people who came on their own.
"There are so many people here."
"Fireworks are romantic. Maybe we'll run into some acquaintances," he said with a light smile. Then, he casually took her hand and walked inside.
He wanted to find the most favorable view to enjoy the scene.
However, it didn't take long for Theodore's words to be proven right. Cecil and Alexander appeared as well.
"Everleigh."
"What a coincidence," Everleigh whispered.
The smile in Theodore's eyes deepened as he heard her. "Let's wait and see. Maybe Christopher will come as well. He's always liked to do romantic stuff."
"What do you mean 'I like to do romantic stuff'? Don't you like it too?" Christopher pulled Erine over from the other side.
Everleigh didn't know whether to laugh or cry when she saw him. No wonder that guy was in such a hurry when he left the hospital. She thought that he went to buy something for Erine but it turned out that he brought her here to watch the fireworks.
Erine was a little embarrassed. "He insisted on bringing me here."
"Don't say that. We are a match made in heaven." Upon hearing this, Christopher felt inexplicably nervous. He was really afraid that Erine would leave him after hearing what they said.
Everleigh and Cecil were not ignorant. If they really said something that should not be said, it would be bad to cause misunderstanding between the two of them.
The fireworks lasted for nearly an hour. Everyone went back slowly after that.
When the six people walked to the parking lot side by side, Cecil became excited suddenly. "Do you remember that song, Everleigh?"
"Yes, I do." How could she forget it? They sang that song the first time they met.
"To auld acquaintance be forgot..." Cecil suddenly sang.
A clear and melodious voice slowly rang across the street as she ignored the gazes from the people around.
After Alexander heard her, he continued to sing the next line. His voice was low and soft, with a bit of gentleness in it.
Everleigh smiled and continued to sing. Theodore followed.
The song was originally sung by one person, but everyone sang it together in the end.
Theodore's voice was cold and low. It gave the song a different feeling. This was Everleigh's first time hearing him sing. In the past, he never sang no matter how much she asked him to. She didn't expect him to open his mouth to sing so quickly this time.
Their voices attracted a lot of people on the street. Everyone looked at the handsome men and beautiful women as they took out their phones to film.
Soon, the news spread to the Internet.
The next day, Everleigh saw the news on the Internet. It said that after the fireworks were over, several people were seen singing on the street, which became a supplementary show after the fireworks.
Everleigh woke Theodore up and said, "Look at this."
"I'm used to this kind of thing, haven't you gotten used to it yet?" He had been on many headlines so much that he was used to it.
