Chapter 496 Let Them Out
It wasn’t that Everleigh didn’t want to go back and apologize to Saniogo face to face, but as the daughter-in-law of the Meyer Family, it just wasn’t appropriate for her to go back during this time.
However, from Alexander’s point of view, that wasn’t the case. He felt that she wasn’t willing to forgive Saniogo.Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.
“Everleigh, about this matter, I…”
“Alexander, I have a patient to tend to right now. Let’s talk about it later,” she interrupted him and hung up the phone directly. Then, she got up and rushed out.
Hearing the sound of the phone call being disconnected, Alexander had an indescribable feeling in his heart. He thought that Everleigh was still unwilling to forgive his father.
Annie sat in the living room of the Jenkins family’s home while chatting with Saniogo. She looked at the staircase from time to time as Alexander had been up there for a long time, but had yet to come down.
“Mr. Jenkins, is Alexander always so busy?” She asked.
He nodded. “He’s in charge of most of the company’s matters. I’m getting old now, so it’s time for me to slowly step down.”
She chuckled, “How is that possible? Mr. Jenkins, you’re not even old. You’re just like my father, who likes to goof off.”
He laughed out loud. That was actually the case. The older he became, the more he wished to spend time relaxing at home.
He didn’t want to continue working his guts out.
She thought for a moment and said, “Oh, by the way, where’s Cynthia? I haven’t seen her since I came back.”
Saniogo’s eyes flickered slightly as soon as he heard Cynthia’s name.
“She’s busy.”
Annie was rather observant. She knew that something must’ve happened, but she didn’t continue asking about it.
After Saniogo left, Annie took out her phone and called Cynthia, but the call just couldn’t connect. When she thought about Saniogo’s suspicious reaction, she immediately made a phone call.
“Find out what has happened to Cynthia,” she instructed and hung up the phone immediately.
She had a feeling that many things had changed since she last came back.
It seemed that she should’ve come back earlier.
Shortly after, Annie’s phone rang, and the person on the phone told her everything. “When did this happen? Didn’t Saniogo do anything about it?” She asked in shock.
…
“Okay.” Annie then hung up the phone, and she suddenly remembered when she first met Everleigh.
She didn’t expect her to be such a ruthless person that didn’t even care about her own family members.
After thinking about it for a while, she called Missha and told her about everything that had happened in Ocpeace City.
After Missha heard about it, she was rather enraged. “Annie, since you’re back in Ocpeace City, please help get the three of them out. After all, they belong to the Jenkins family. We can’t just leave them in there.”
“Sure, I can do that, but Mr. Jenkins…”
Missha sighed, “Saniogo is just a proud person, and he cares a lot about his own dignity and honor. Melissa must’ve said something to annoy him that he didn’t even bother to help them. Just go ahead. I’ll take care of the rest.”
Annie agreed pleasingly. Things like that were a piece of cake for her.
After Missha hung up the phone, she didn’t call Saniogo straight away. Instead, she called Everleigh.
She had just sat down on her chair to rest when her phone started ringing.
It was from Missha.
“Aunt Missha.”
“Everleigh, are you busy right now?”
“I’ve just finished my work. Aunt Missha, why are you calling me now? Isn’t it already midnight over there?” Everleigh looked at the clock as she replied.
Missha chuckled lightly, “I’m just really busy, and I usually work till late at night, but I’m already used to it. I’m just calling to ask you, were you the one who put Cynthia and her parents in jail?”
Hearing Missha’s words, Everleigh’s face froze. “Aunt Missha, I had no other choice. It’s not the first time Cynthia has tried to hurt me. If I don’t teach her a lesson, she’ll never stop troubling me.”
“I know, Cynthia is just a spoiled kid. Actually, I want to get them out of jail. After all, they are my brother and my niece. I can’t just leave them suffering inside there,” Missha said earnestly.
Everleigh understood her words. Since Missha wanted to let them out, she simply couldn’t go against her. As long as Cynthia had learned her lesson, she was fine with it.
“You’re right, Aunt Missha. You can make the decision. However, I do have to tell you, if Cynthia continues to look for trouble with me, I won’t let her go again,” Everleigh knew that everyone in the family liked Cynthia very much. She could understand why everyone was helping her.
Despite this, she wasn’t a weak person either.
Missha responded softly, “I believe that Cynthia has learned her lesson this time. If she does something bad again in the future, I promise that I will personally punish her.”
Regardless of whether her aunt’s words were true or not, Everleigh was still delighted to hear it. Missha was already respecting her by calling and asking about her opinion. Even if Cynthia really came out, everything would still be the same.
A few days later, Cynthia was released. After being jailed for such a long time, not only did her attitude and behavior not improve at all, it became even worse. “Annie, thanks for helping me.”
“You’re welcome. Although, you should really thank your aunt for it,” Annie said softly.
When Cynthia heard that it was Missha who had helped her, she became even more aggrieved. Missha was the person who loved her the most besides her parents in the Jenkins family. Even Saniogo, who used to dote on her, didn’t do anything to help her.
“Alright, let’s go back now. Your parents will come out soon.”
“Okay.”
Everyone in the Jenkins family had received the news that Yeezoo had been released. After Saniogo found out about it, he didn’t do anything either.
He knew very well who was behind it.
Theodore received the news, too. He called Everleigh to remind her, “Cynthia has been released. You have to be extra careful from now on.”
“Why are you saying this?” She found his words rather hilarious.
Would Cynthia even dare to attack her again? She was certain she wouldn’t.
He was really worried. Many bad things had happened recently. If something bad was to happen to Everleigh, he wouldn’t know what to do.
“Everleigh, for the sake of the two children, you really have to be careful, okay? Wilson is one to be careful of, and the other one is the Jenkins family. You’re already facing enough trouble. You wouldn’t want to have more,” Theodore said in a serious tone. He was extremely concerned about her.
Everleigh laughed, “Alright, I know. Don’t worry, I will take good care of myself.”
“Please take this seriously, I’m doing all this for your own good,” he added.
“Okay, got it. I will treat every problem seriously.”
Then, Theodore let out a chuckle. Hearing his deep-toned chuckle, she thought for a moment and asked, “Would you like to go out for a meal together?”
“Sure, I…”
“It’s on me. Let’s go for some barbeque. I haven’t eaten it in a long time.” She was drooling as soon as she thought of it.
She was craving it.
He agreed.
In the evening, the two of them went to a barbeque restaurant near the hospital. Many people had gathered there for dinner. Theodore and Everleigh seemed a little out of place there.
One was as cold as ice, and the other looked as elegant as a swan. They looked nothing like people who would visit a small, cheap restaurant for dinner.
Nevertheless, they sat down and placed an order.
“I would like twenty lamb kebabs and twenty chicken wings,” Everleigh’s clear voice sounded.
