X Chapter 226 Everleigh's Birthday? "It'll be Mommy's birthday in a few days. Daddy, don't tellyou've forgotten about it?" Adrienne tilted her head and looked at him, revealing a smile. "This is a good opportunity!" Everleigh's birthday? Theodore was slightly taken aback. Indeed, it would be Thanksgiving soon and Everleigh's birthday was one day before that, so it was very difficult to forget such a special day. "Daddy, have you really forgotten?" Adrienne's voice pulled Theodore back from his thoughts. He looked up and saw that Adrienne had a bit of anger on her face. She was staring at him angrily, looking unhappy. He immediately patted her head. "I didn't forget." Adrienne was in doubt. "Really? Did you prepare a gift, Daddy?" "Yes." She smiled when she heard this. She hugged him immediately and kissed him on the face. "I knew you were the best. You care about Mommy the most, and of course you wouldn't forget such a special day." "Let's go buy ice cream first and we'll send one to your mother." Next, Theodore held her hand and walked towards the elevator. Adrienne skipped with her short legs as she mumbled, "Daddy, do you know what flavor of ice cream Mommy likes the most?" "Strawberry." "That's right! What about the second most?" "Chocolate." "That's correct again!" The dessert shop was right opposite the hospital. Theodore bought five ice creams and asked the shop assistant to send three of them to the hospital ward. After that, Adrienne and Theodore took the other two and went straight to Everleigh's office.

As soon as they arrived at the door of the office, a woman's voice could be heard behind them before they knocked. "Adrienne?" Then, Adrienne turned around and greeted her politely. "Hello, Mabel." "Hello, Adrienne." Mabel was one of Everleigh's interns. At the time, she was holding a pile of documents and it seemed that she was also looking for Everleigh. When she saw Theodore, she looked a little surprised. "So you're here too, Mr. Godfrey? Are you looking for Dr. Trevino?" Theodore nodded slightly.

"Dr. Trevino is not here." Mabel opened the door and walked inside, putting the documents she was holding on Everleigh's desk. "Dr. Trevino has just been called to the conference room. She has a new colleague in the cardiology department who seems to be an acquaintance of hers. You can wait here for a while." "Acquaintance?" Theodore's brows furrowed slightly and his expression darkened a little.

However, Adrienne was a little unfocused. She slid down from Theodore's arms and looked around the office while eating the ice cream as she kept mumbling, "If Mommy doesn't cback soon, the ice cream will melt. Then, I'll eat it myself. Daddy, you can buy another one for Mommy." At this time, in the conference room for the cardiology department, the hospital's dean attended the meeting personally and introduced the new doctor to the staff members of the cardiology department.

"Dr. Smith will be working in the cardiology department in our hospital from now on. I hope all of you can show him the ropes. By the way," said Mr. Lawson, who took a look at Everleigh, "Dr. Trevino, you and Dr. Smith were classmates, weren't you?" "Yes." Everleigh smiled and nodded. "We have been friends for many years." "Well, then Dr. Trevino will be responsible for showing Dr. Smith around our hospital. Any objections?" Everleigh, of course, had no objections. She hadn't seen Stainley for a while.

Let's call it a day." After the meeting, Stainley chatted with the doctors from the cardiology department. Since everyone had something to do, they left, leaving Everleigh standing alone in the distance. Stainley stood up straight, and his eyes were as gentle as usual. "Are you mad that I didn't inform you before I arrived?" "I'm a little surprised, but I'm not angry." Everleigh smiled at him and then took the initiative to reach out her hand. "Welcome, new colleague." Stainley looked at her, and his gentle eyes were glowing with warmth.

After that, they walked next to one another as they left the conference room.

Everleigh introduced her colleagues and snurses to Stainley as they walked. "The cardiology department is always busy, so you haven't met all of them today, but it doesn't matter. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future." Stainley nodded and said, "I cto the city hospital for a few exchange meetings. Other than snew recruits, I know quite a lot of the others." "That's good. By the way, if you are on the night shift, you can have a rest in the on call rooms. They're over there, so we can go take a look." "It's fine, it's not urgent." "You're right." Everleigh cto her senses and said in a teasing tone, "I'm telling you about night shifts on the first day you chere. If Mr. Lawson heard it, he would have thought that I was pushing my colleagues, making you feel that we've been working too much overtime." "That's not what I mean," Stainley said with a smile. "I want to talk about my office. Did Mr. Lawson tell you about it?" "Oh, office. If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten." Everleigh nodded. "He told me." This time, Stainley took up the job in a hurry and Christopher had occupied the last office in the cardiology department. At present, there was no free office available, so Mr. Lawson told Everleigh that Stainley would share an office with her for the tbeing.

"If you don't think it's convenient, I'll talk to him." "It's not inconvenient at all." Everleigh smiled frankly. "It's just an office and I don't usually stay in it. Let's go. I'll take you to have a look." "As long as you don't mind." Then, Stainley followed Everleigh straight to her office.

Everleigh explained as she opened the door, "My office has not beem cleaned up yet. It's a bit messy inside. Don't mind it. I'll ask the logistics staff to get another table later. I..." She hadn't finished her words yet. When she opened the door, she saw the figure on the sofa and the rest of her words trailed off.

"Mommy!" Adrienne cheered. Jumping off Theodore's leg, she threw herself into Everleigh's arms. "Mommy! Why did you cback so late?" Then, Everleigh held Adrienne's shoulder and asked, "Adrienne, why are you here?"

Adrienne smiled and said, "Daddy and I bought ice cream together for you, but you cback too late. Then, the ice cream melted, so I had to eat it. Not to worry, Daddy said that we can take you out to eat ice cream." "Adrienne." Everleigh felt dizzy after hearing her use the words 'Mommy and Daddy'. "Don't talk nonsense. Mr. Stainley is here. Cand greet him." "Hi, Uncle Stainley. What are you doing here?" Adrienne blinked her eyes and looked at Stainley.

"I started work here, actually." Stainley explained as he took out a lollipop from his pocket and handed it to Adrienne. "Adrienne, I'll be your Mom's colleague from now on."

Adrienne was always a sucker for whoever could feed her. Thus, she Exploring the Roots of Stockholm SyndrSponsored: TooCool2Be True took the lollipop and tore the wrapper om off before she stuffed it into her mouth. "Really? Then I will see you often, just like when we were in Maniville." "Yes," Stainley said as he stroked her hair. He straightened his body and looked in the direction of the sofa. "You're here too." From the moment he entered the room, he saw Theodore sitting on the couch. Naturally, Theodore had seen him well.
