Said I didn’t Love Him But I Lied

Annie felt even more uncomfortable after being scolded by Missha. She had indeed done it on purpose, but wasn’t Erine at fault too?

Didn’t her words go too far?

Didn’t she sense it? Annie’s mind was full of questions.

Despite this, she had ignored the fact that her words were really hurtful as well.

Erine cast her a cold glance, and her sexy lips showed a hint of coolness. “If a noble lady like her could say something like that, I can only say that she wasn’t well-raised.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Annie’s expression changed. “You…”

At that moment, a man walked over from the entrance. It was the person in charge of the event. When he heard that someone was causing trouble, he came over quickly to have a look.

Everleigh and Cecil took a few steps back and stood aside.

They wanted to see how Erine would deal with the matter.

“Ladies, may I know what’s the matter over here?”

“Nothing much, it’s just a little misunderstanding. This lady lost her balance and poured some wine on my dress by accident.” Erine smiled generously. She didn’t seem irritated by the little misunderstanding at all.

On the contrary, her kindness and generosity degraded Annie’s personality.

Cecil whispered in Everleigh’s ear, “Wow, this friend of yours is a smart woman. Look at what she just said. She’s turned the tables in her favor.”

Everleigh chuckled. Erine was a sharp-tongued woman. There were all kinds of people in the hospital, but none of them had ever won an argument against her, let alone a lady from a wealthy family.

Annie was really petty and narrow-minded. In terms of generosity, she wasn’t even as good as Josephine.

At the very least, Josephine could put up with it for a few years.

“If that’s the case, then I’m really sorry. On behalf of the organizer, I will compensate you for your dress.” The person in charge understood what she meant.

Since she was willing to let things go, they wouldn’t want to cause more trouble for themselves.

“That’s not necessary. Although, I’ve ordered a few bottles of wine. If you want to compensate me, why don’t you give me a few more bottles of good wine?” Erine suggested in a joking tone.

The man nodded. “Certainly.”

“Well, let me go and clean myself then.” Erine grabbed her purse and prepared to leave.

She looked at Annie and let out a cold snort. Then, she turned around and left.

Her outfit was already dirty, so it wouldn’t look good for her to continue staying there.

Everleigh walked over to Missha and called, “Aunt Missha.”

“Yasmine…” Missha opened her mouth and sighed softly. She then gave Annie a look of reproach.This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“Forget about it. Let’s go back now. If we stay any longer, the other guests will just make fun of us.” Everleigh could feel the gaze of the crowd, and felt a little uneasy. It was better for them to just leave.

She then turned to look at Annie.

Her face was gloomy, and there was even more dissatisfaction in her eyes.

Upon seeing that, Cecil couldn’t help but despise her. She thought that there was something wrong with that crazy woman.

Cecil gave Everleigh a lift back home. Cecil couldn’t help but say, “This Erine is rather interesting. I’d like to meet her more often.”

“She wasn’t like this before. It all changed when the Harrison family found her back then, and she finally knew her true identity. Although she is the daughter of the Harrison family, people still tend to despise her.” Everleigh understood her feelings.

If she hadn’t had a father since young, she probably would’ve been better. No one would be glad to be known as an illegitimate child.

Cecil fell silent for a long time, but when she thought about Erine’s self-righteous look during the exchange, she just couldn’t control the smile on her face.

The next day, Theodore received the bottles of red wine at his company. Moses issued a check, while Theodore opened a bottle and tasted the wine carefully.

He had to admit that Everleigh’s taste was getting better.

In the past, she didn’t really enjoy things like that.

“Mr. Godfrey, Miss Trevino is here.”

“Call her Madam Trevino from now on.”

“Yes.” Hearing his words, Moses thought to himself that he really wasn’t being astute. Now that Everleigh was divorced and was dating Theodore, he really should’ve addressed her as ‘madam’.

Everleigh saw Theodore drinking the wine as soon as she entered the office. “How is it?”

“Not bad. Since when did you know how to taste wine?”

She put her purse on the sofa and poured herself a glass of wine. “Of course I learned it when I was abroad. Speaking of which, I should thank Christopher. If he hadn’t taken me to all kinds of banquets, I wouldn’t have had the chance to try expensive wines.”

Upon hearing that, he felt a little uncomfortable. He knew that Christopher had asked her to go with him because he needed a female companion.

He originally had the right to do so, but he no longer had it.

She tasted the wine thoroughly, and raised her eyebrows lightly. She found that tea was still better than wine.

“What’s wrong?”

“I prefer tea to wine.” She put down her wine glass.

Theodore immediately asked Moses to make her a cup of tea.

Everleigh drank her tea with satisfaction. Before she could finish it, she received a call from the hospital. It was from Maxwell, telling her that Christopher had returned.

“Wow, that was fast. Wasn’t it supposed to be for a few months?”

“Hey, who’s the biggest funder of the city hospital right now?”

“The Meyer family.” She understood what was going on as soon as she answered.

Felicia must’ve used her power to bring Christopher back.

The only thing Everleigh could do was to pray for him. Ever since they got divorced, his conjectures had all been correct, but he just couldn’t stop everything from happening.

“I’m going back right now,” she said, then hung up the phone. Theodore heard the whole conversation clearly. “You really care about Christopher, don’t you?”

“After all, he has helped me a lot. Do you want me to be ungrateful?” She retorted.

He was lost for words. He couldn’t say a single word.

He then sent Everleigh back to the hospital. It was mainly because he also wanted to see what had happened.

Christopher sat in his office, looking dejected. He sighed over and over again. “Why is my life so miserable?”

“In what way is your life miserable? There are so many people who want your position, but just can’t get it,” Everleigh said as she entered the room.

When he saw her walking in, he opened his arms and hugged her. “Everleigh, what should I do? Felicia wants me to go on a blind date even though there are so many beautiful women waiting for a young man like me. Tell me, what should I do?”

Hearing that, she pushed him away instantly.

Theodore walked in as well, staring at him with his cold eyes. When Christopher noticed him, his expression changed and he stopped whining.

“Well, it’s not a big deal for you to just go and have a look.”

“It is a big deal. She is the daughter of the Clark family. I hate the daughter of the Clark family the most. She is arrogant and terrible. I feel disgusted just looking at her.” That was the main reason he opposed the arrangement. It would be fine if it was a daughter from another family, but it just so happened to be the Clark family.

What was Felicia thinking? He pondered.

Everleigh listened in confusion. She raised her head and looked at Theodore, as if she wanted to ask about the Clark family.

He placed his hand on her shoulder and explained, “The Clark family is in the jewelry business. The family is well-mannered, but it’s such a pity that the daughter is a bit…”

“Why don’t you just reject it?” She understood everything after hearing it.

Christopher looked at her with disdain. He would’ve refused it if he could.

He was also figuring out a solution to solve the problem.

“Everleigh.”
