Hearing this, Everleigh was stunned, "That's the guy?"
"Yes. He came back from abroad. I don't have further details of him yet. However, judging by what you just told me, he must have an ulterior motive."
"He even started targeting you. He must have something planned. You have to be more cautious." She rubbed her forehead and felt a little uneasy in her heart. Was this person going to cause trouble?
Theodore's eyes were filled with worry. Actually, even he had no idea what would happen next.
At this moment, in the Jenkins family home.
Missha had already received the news and knew exactly what Wilson was doing.
Although he had already left her territory, everything he had was given to him by her. How could she just ignore him?
However...
She got up, grabbed the car keys and went straight to Cynthia's house. During this period of time, Cynthia did not go out much. Everyone had
heard about what she had done and was pointing fingers at her. Not only was she embarrassed, it was the same for the other members of the Jenkins family. If it wasn't for the fact that the Jenkins family was powerful, other people would have had the courage to gossip and criticize them.
Missha's appearance surprised Yeezoo. "Why are you here?"
"I came to see Cynthia. Where is she?" She replied in a low voice.
Yeezoo glanced upstairs and signaled that she was in her room.
"Lately, she has been staying in her room and has never left." When Yeezoo talked about this, he was distressed. His precious daughter was ruined. How could he feel happy?
Missha did not speak, but went straight upstairs.
Cynthia was lying on the bed. Her eyes were swollen and her face was pale. She looked like she was in bad condition.
"Cynthia."
"Aunt Missha." She raised her head and looked at her aunt who was standing by the bed. Her hoarse voice was haggard.
Missha sat on the edge of the bed. Looking at Cynthia, she sighed and said, "You can't go on like this. Cynthia, things have already happened. You should look ahead."
Cynthia listened but her tears would not stop flowing.
She regretted it. She really regretted it. She should not have schemed against Everleigh on such an occasion. Otherwise, she would not have suffered until that day.
She did not dare to go out of the house now because she was afraid of how people looked at her. She really could not bear it.
Missha chuckled with a trace of helplessness. "After all these years, your temper is still the same. You're not regretting your actions, but the fact that you decided to do it at such an occasion. Am I right?" Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
Cynthia's expression froze as she stared at Missha with bloodshot eyes.
Missha's guess was on point, which exposed Cynthia's thoughts directly.
She lowered her head slightly. "Aunt Missha, everything has changed since she came back. I was supposed to be the center of attention, but now, everyone's eyes are on her."
What Cynthia could not stand the most was that everything that belonged to her was being taken away by someone else.
Missha looked at the jealousy in her eyes. She was too familiar with such a look.
After a long while, she said slowly, "They have been looking for Everleigh for so many years. Don't you know that? You should know clearly that they would find her sooner or later."
"But I just can't accept it. Aunt Missha, you once said that the foreign company was for me, but with her appearance, do you want me to give everything up for her?" Cynthia said in a sharp tone.
Missha frowned slightly. "I said before that it will be yours, but it also depends on your ability. If you are not capable, the company will be guided to destruction if given to you. Cynthia, don't you understand yourself well enough?"
Tears streamed down Cynthia's face. She was still reluctant to accept the fact.
"Aunt Missha, are you really going to be so cruel?"
"I'm not cruel. In order for the Jenkins family to flourish, how can I pass on the company to you when you have such a mentality?" Missha frowned unhappily. She would not allow Jenkins Group to be ruined in Cynthia's hands.
Hearing this, Cynthia shut up instantly. She hated Everleigh even more in her heart because she could not accept being treated like this.
Everleigh owned many things. Why must she fight with her?
She was frustrated and unwilling.
"I didn't come here to tell you this. I was worried when I didn't see you around lately. Seeing that you still have the strength to argue with me, I'm at ease." After that, Missha left immediately.
While walking to the door, she said, "You should be able to see the difference between you and Everleigh. There's a huge difference in both of your mentalities."
Cynthia's expression froze once again. The seeds of hatred were planted inside of her and it spread all over her body like venom. A voice shouted inside of her head.
"As soon as Everleigh is gone, you will become the most favored person in the Jenkins family."
Once she had developed such a thought, it would be deeply rooted in her.
She had always had this idea at the back of her mind. Now, she decided to do it. In the morning, Cynthia went straight to the hospital with a knife in her hand.
Everleigh was doing her morning routine, so she did not notice Cynthia.
Cynthia was wearing a long white dress. Her hair was scattered, and her face was pale and bloodless. She looked just like a patient. No one could imagine that she was the glamorous Cynthia.
Everleigh looked at the medical record and told the nurse, "Observe this patient more frequently. Also, contact the patient's family."
"Yes." The nurse nodded and replied.
Cynthia looked at Everleigh and her eyes turned red. She rushed over with the knife in her hand. "Ah..."
Everleigh looked back as she heard the scream. Cynthia was rushing at her with a knife in her hand.
Just as Cynthia was about to reach Everleigh, someone grabbed her wrist with one hand.
When Everleigh saw Cynthia rushing over, she could not react. She could only stand there in a daze. When she came to her senses, she noticed that the man holding Cynthia was Revainge.
Cynthia did not expect that someone could stop her in time. She burst out in an instant. She tried to push Revainge away to continue with her plan.
"Let go." She pulled her arm back, but she accidentally sliced Revainge's palm.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the other male nurses rushed forward to stop the crazy woman.
Revainge had a cut on his palm and blood immediately flowed out.
Everleigh came to her senses and ordered a nurse to treat his wound.
At the same time, she looked at Cynthia, who was being held down by the nurses.
"Let go of me, you b*stards. How dare you do this to me." Cynthia struggled, but she could not break free no matter how hard she tried.
Looking at her acting like this, Everleigh strode forward and slapped her across the face. The loud sound echoed in the corridor of the hospital.
Since it was early in the morning, there were not many visitors. The onlookers were the patients in the hospital.
After being slapped, Cynthia was stunned. She looked at Everleigh and asked, "Did you just hit me?"
"Why can't I hit you? You were trying to kill me a moment ago."
