Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Chapter 395 An Unexpected Reward Everleigh put her phone away and was ready for work. As soon as she walked out of her room, she saw Maxwell walking over from the other side of the corridor, with a few other doctors following behind him. "Dr. Harrison," she greeted.

"Everleigh." He looked really worried. "Galen is in a critical condition. Let's head over right now." She was shocked upon hearing that. She then rushed over to Galen's ward with the other doctors.

Sure enough, Galen's face was turning pale, and he looked very tired. The corners of his lips were slowly turning black. Maxwell led them into the operating theater. Everleigh stood anxiously at the side. Her emotions were complicated.

"Everleigh, inform his family members that we have tried our best." His deep voice was ringing in the operating theatre.

She stared at Galen, whose eyes were shut. She could hear the sharp, continuous tone coming from the electrocardiogram machine.

"Everleigh? What are you looking at?" He called out again.

"Dr. Harrison, he..." She couldn't believe that Galen had already passed away. She was still talking to him earlier that day.

She still resented him for what had happened eight years ago. However, at that moment, she felt really exhausted to see all of them dying, one after another, right in front of her eyes. She wasn't satisfied at all. Maxwell understood her feelings. However, as a doctor, she should've already gotten used to witnessing death. "Everleigh, there's nothing else we can do about it. Go and inform his family members. They have already prepared for this," he sighed. He felt sorry for every single life that was lost.

It was the sfor every patient.

Everleigh kept silent and left the operating theater. As she pushed the door open, she saw Messie waiting outside. Her eyes were red.

She immediately walked over and asked, "Dr. Trevino, my husband, he..." "We have tried our best. I'm really sorry for your loss," Everleigh choked up.

She felt as if there was a lump burning in her throat.

Messie trembled upon hearing that. She could no longer hold back her tears, and she cried in pain.

Everleigh knew how she felt at that very moment.

She didn't offer anymore words of comfort, as she knew they wouldn't mean anything.

Later on, she heard from the nurses that Galen's wake was quite chaotic. He wasn't a kind soul to begin with. It was said that many people went to his wake, looked for his wife and caused trouble.

It was only normal for the victims to vent their anger after they learned that the culprit had died. Everleigh didn't comment on it. Instead, she went to the morgue where Galen's body was placed.

The morgue sent a chill down her spine as soon as she walked in.

Messie was standing there crying.

She looked pitiful.

"Mrs. Wood, my deepest condolences to you and your family," Everleigh walked over and spoke to her. Messie was startled when she saw her. "Dr. Trevino, why did you cover here?" "I heard about what happened at the wake, so I'm here to see you," Everleigh said lightly, with a hint of sympathy in her tone.

Messie smiled bitterly. "He hurt you in the past, and yet you're here, feeling pity for him. I'm really sorry, Dr. Trevino. I know that my husband was an awful person." Everleigh was surprised. She looked at her with a weird gaze, asking, "You know about the incident?" "I overheard the conversation that day. I know he did a lot of bad things out there, and he deserved to die. However, he was a caring husband toat home. I thought that I had finally found the love of my life, but now, he's dead..." She started sobbing again as she thought about it.

Everleigh was actually astounded to hear that. She had never pictured Galen as a caring husband. She knew him as a brutal and heartless man, so she thought that he would treat his wife in the sway. Messie cried for quite a long tbefore she suddenly remembered something. She then took out a piece of paper from her pocket and passed it to her.

"Dr. Trevino, this is for you. I just received this yesterday, and I figured that it might be useful to you," Messie said.

Everleigh took the piece of paper, feeling confused. As she opened it, the contents inside left her dumbfounded. It was from Derick.

Who would have known that he would actually write Galen a letter.

"This is..." Everleigh couldn't believe her own eyes.

"I met Derick once. He's a genuine and reliable person. I believe that he sent this letter to ask Galen about his condition. Now that Galen is dead, I hope this letter can help you find him," Messie explained. Everleigh looked at her in a daze. She didn't know what to say.

She was there to check on Messie, but she was somehow given an important piece of paper.

It was an unexpected reward.

It was as if God was there to help her too.

"Thank you, Mrs. Wood," she thanked her.

Hey there! Just a friendly reminder that if you're not reading this book on nel5s.org, you might be missing out on the complete story. Head over there to dive into the next chapter-it's all free! "Dr. Trevino, can you doa favor? Now that my husband is gone, I wish to carry out his funeral in peace, but I just can't get his body out of the hospital as those people are constantly disturbing me, so..." Messie trailed off.

"That won't be a problem. I'll arrange this with the hospital," Everleigh said. Although Galen had hurt her in the past, she wouldn't mind doing his wife a simple favor.

Besides, the hospital wouldn't want to keep his body inside the morgue.

"Thank you so much," Messie bowed her head. It was a bow of apology, as well as a one of gratitude.

"Don't even mention it. Take good care of yourself. I'll get someone to transport his body out tomorrow morning," Everleigh said.

Then, she gave her a pat on the shoulder. She didn't need to be so polite.

After exiting the morgue, Everleigh went to the office to clock out. She removed her white coat, tookhem belongings with her, and headed ירתE upstairs to Theodore's ward. She didn't notice that Wilson was walking towards Loraine's ward in the opposite direction.

Loraine was resting in bed. When she heard someone walking in, she initially thought that it was the nurse who was there to give her s上 medication. However, as she turned around, Wilson was already standing in front of her. "Dad, why are you here?" She was rather surprised. There was an inexplicable fear in her heart.

Upon seeing her expression, his eyes narrowed as he felt upset about it.

"I'm here to check on you. You know that your mother doesn't allowto visit you," he explained as the guilt in his gaze grew heavier.

Loraine smiled bitterly when she saw his expression. "You know exactly why she doesn't allow you to visit me, don't you? Right at that moment when the incident happened, before I closed my eyes, the only thought in my mind was that, if I was able to survive, I wish to ask you in person, why are you so cruel to Hansen and me? Aren't we your children?" Wilson felt really guilty in face of her questions.

"Loraine, things aren't as simple as you think," he tried to explain.

"Then, what reason do you have to hurt your own daughter? Mom did warnbefore, but I chose to believe that my father isn't that kind of person," she questioned him calmly.

It was as if she had expected the situation to happen. She thought that she would be angry or resentful, ;but when it really happened, she actually remained calm.
