Said I didn’t Love Him But I Lied

Everleigh hung up the phone and took a deep breath. “Well, it’s not a big deal. I’m going to rest. Theodore, you…”

“I’m going to the company. Have a good rest. I’ll come visit you in the evening,” he interrupted her. He had more important things to do at that moment.

Her eyes darkened. Looking at his appearance, she knew in her heart that he was going to find Wilson, but… She didn’t want to stop him. Wilson tried to kill her time and time again, and she didn’t want him to have his way anymore. After a long moment, she slowly said, “Okay.”

Theodore left the Trevino family home and went straight to Godfrey Group to look for Wilson. At the moment, he was sitting in his office, trying to think of a way to get everything back. However, before he could think of a way, Theodore appeared in front of him.

“Wilson.” Theodore’s deep eyes were filled with a bone-piercing chill. He didn’t show the slightest bit of respect when he looked at him.

Wilson looked at him and couldn’t help frowning. “Why are you here?”

“Don’t you know why I came here?”

Wilson snorted. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“Did you think the matter of you finding someone to run Everleigh over is solved?”

Upon hearing this, Wilson was surprised, as if he did not know why he suspected him.

Seeing such a look, Theodore couldn’t help but look at him with disdain.

However, what had led to a bigger disappointment was that, if he had admitted it, or if he saw that he was showing some sort of self-reflection, he would have forgiven him.

It was a pity that none of those were there.

After a while, Wilson looked away and said coldly, “I dare you to take this matter to the police and sue me. If you don’t have any evidence, you can get out.”

Theodore lowered his eyes. Since that was the case, he didn’t have anything to say.

“Take care of yourself.” He walked out as soon as he finished speaking.

“Stop there! You came in with such an accusation. Do you still care about me as your father?” Wilson asked unwillingly.

Hearing his father’s words, Theodore felt like laughing from the bottom of his heart.

“Now you’re saying you’re my father? Why didn’t you think the same when you framed me?”

“I did it for your good.” Wilson looked at him with wide eyes. In his mind, he did all these things for his son, who turned out to be heartless.

Theodore sneered. “Don’t use that as an excuse. If you really did it for me, you wouldn’t have hurt the person I love over and over again. Wilson, I’ve never hated you before, but now, I really hate you.” With that, he walked out.

Recalling the things Wilson had done, he had never felt hatred. He really thought that he did it for his own good, but that day, when he saw the scene on the surveillance footage, his heart was filled with hatred.

He was afraid that if Erine hadn’t pushed Everleigh aside, she would have died.

Wilson’s expression was stiff. “You…”

“I won’t give up on this matter. Don’t think you’ll always get away. One day, you won’t be able to see the end of your tricks.” Theodore strode away after speaking.

Not long after he walked out, he saw Xavier and Yantsey.

He didn’t feel much of it when he saw them.

“I’ve found the person. He’s in the log cabin in the suburbs. I haven’t handed him over to the authorities.”

“Thank you.”

Xavier chuckled. “We’re brothers.”

Theodore smiled faintly, but he didn’t say anything. That’s right; they were brothers.

However, he hadn’t expected Xavier to act so quickly and be able to find the culprit.

“I’ve seen Wilson’s schemes before. It’s not the first time for him to use this kind of method. His moves could be redundant, but they are useful.” Xavier’s voice was calm, as if he was describing something familiar.

Theodore’s eyes flashed. Without further ado, he headed straight for the outskirts of the city.

After having dinner, Everleigh sat on the sofa and watched Alastair and Adrienne playing. She had a feeling that she had just survived a disaster.

In the evening, she called Theodore and asked him where he was.

“I’m still at the company. I can’t see you today.”

“It doesn’t matter. I’ll go to the company tomorrow to find you. My hand is injured now, so I can’t go to the hospital. Which means that I can rest for a few days, but I can still take on some supervising work.”

“I see.” Theodore’s gentle voice came from the other end of the line.

The next day, Everleigh sent Alastair and Adrienne to school. Just when they got out of the car, they saw many children coming towards them.

“Adrienne, this is for you. My mother bought it especially for me. I left one for you.”

“And me, Alastair, I know you like pandas. This doll is for you.”

A little boy and a little girl handed over the things in their hands.

Everleigh looked at the two of them, who were popular, and smiled. She was not surprised. She knew that they had good relationships from the sports day the last time.

“Hurry up and go to class,” she urged them from behind.

“Mommy, see you later,” the two of them looked at her and said with smiles. Then, they left with the other children.

Everleigh watched as they entered the school before she drove away.

Theodore was sitting in his office dealing with official business. He didn’t intend to tell her about the incident the day before.

She came in and whispered, “Theodore.”

Seeing that she was here, he said softly, “Take a rest first. I’m handling some things.”

“Alright.”

Soon it was noon. She had helped herself to a few magazines and had not noticed the time.

It wasn’t until she saw a pair of leather shoes standing in front of her that she raised her head to have a look.

She saw his gentle gaze on her as he said, “Let’s go. I’ll take you to lunch.”

She nodded and followed him to the restaurant. Halfway through the meal, she asked, “How’s it going?”

His hand paused for a moment before he said in a low voice, “Everleigh, don’t ask much about this matter. I’ll tell you when the time comes, okay?”

Her eyes dimmed. She laughed and said, “That man is your father. If I say something bad about him to you, you will be sad, won’t you?”

He lowered his eyes, the guilt in his heart growing heavier.

Just as he didn’t know how to explain it, she suddenly said, “Forget it. Just do what you’ve decided. I won’t ask about it. I’m doing it for your sake.”This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

His eyes lit up. He lowered his head and said, “Alright.”

A few days later, Everleigh went back to work. She heard from the nurse that Christopher was frequenting the Department of Orthopedics.

Everleigh smelled something unusual.

At noon, when she saw him coming back, there was still a smile on his face.

“Christopher, come here. Let’s have a talk.”

“Talk about what?”

“Talk about you,” she said in a low voice, but the smile in her eyes was not hidden at all.

He looked at her expression and took a deep breath. He grabbed a chair, sat in front of her and said solemnly, “You want to talk about me and Erine, don’t you?”

“Yes, you must have fallen in love with her. I noticed it last time. The reason why I didn’t say it is that I don’t think she likes you.”

She remembered the embarrassment in Erine’s eyes, which meant that she also knew it, but she didn’t intend to accept it.

Upon hearing this, he sighed. “You’re right. Erine doesn’t like me. It’s rare for me to fall in love. What a pity…”

“Are you serious, or are you just fooling around?”
