Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Seeing she was exhausted, Abraham said nothing.

Everleigh didn't have a good rest. Everything that happened in the hospital and the Godfrey family reverberated through her mind.

It was already dark when she opened her eyes. She washed her face and went downstairs.

Alastair and Adrienne were sitting on the sofa, watching cartoons while Hilda was busy in the kitchen.

"Hilda, where are Selena and Dad?"

"Miss Selena went to the set while Mr. Trevino went out for a business meeting. He said that he would not come back for dinner tonight." Everleigh nodded.

When Alastair heard their conversation, there was a trace of astonishment, but it soon disappeared from his eyes.

The three of them sat at the dining table and had their meal. Adrienne was talking about school when she remembered something, "Mommy, can Hansen come back to school?" "I'm afraid he can't go for the time being."

"Why? Is he still sick?"

"Yes, he hasn't recovered yet." As Everleigh spoke, her heart ached. "Poor Hansen," she thought.

"Mommy, can we go see him? It's a holiday tomorrow." Alastair spoke up suddenly.

"Sure." Everleigh agreed. Hansen had said that he wanted to see the two of them, but he never got the chance. Now that they brought it up themselves, it was a good idea for them to meet. Though she didn't know how Hansen was doing right now.

In the Godfrey Group's office, Theodore looked at the documents on the table. Yvonne never had time to deal with them because of Hansen.

Now, they were all given to Loraine, an inexperienced young girl who couldn't even understand the words on the document.

"Mr. Godfrey, this is the document. Should we deal with it now?"

"No, send it back to Loraine," he said indifferently as he leaned back in his chair after taking a look at them.

Moses couldn't understand. He had asked for the documents before, but now, he said he didn't want to deal with them. He was still the president of Godfrey Group at the very least. "Mr. Godfrey, this doesn't seem right."

"If you want to take care of both your family and your career, then you'll have to be capable enough. Send them back." Theodore got up and left the office. Moses didn't dare to refute, so he sent the documents back.

Loraine stared at the mountain of documents. Her eyes widened, and she asked, "Didn't you already give them to him? Why did you bring them back?"

"I'm afraid this is Mr. Godfrey's order, Miss Godfrey. You are the one who has been taking charge of this project. We can't interfere."

"You..." She pointed at Moses in exasperation.

He finally understood Theodore's intention. He nodded respectfully and turned to leave.

Loraine had no choice but to call Yvonne. However, Yvonne was not in the mood to take care of the company's affairs at that moment. She just wanted to stay by Hansen's side.

The next day, Everleigh took Alastair and Adrienne to the hospital. Hansen had already woken up, but he could only lie on the bed motionlessly. When he saw Alastair and Adrienne, his dim eyes lit up. "Alastair, Adrienne."

"Hansen, are you feeling better?" Adrienne went over and held Hansen's hand. Her adorable voice was full of concern, which sounded very sincere. Yvonne's eyes reddened when she saw this. She didn't sleep a wink all night because she was afraid that something bad would happen to Hansen. Seeing that the children had a good friendship, an unspeakable feeling loomed in her heart.

"Yvonne, if you are tired, you can take a rest. I'll stay here."

"I'm not tired. I need to take care of Hansen."

Everleigh could understand Yvonne's feelings as a mother, and she empathized with her.

"If that's the case, I'll let Alastair and Adrienne stay and I'll carry on with my work."

"Okay." Yvonne nodded. She liked children very much, so she would never do anything bad to Alastair or Adrienne.

Everleigh had been busy all morning. At noon, she wanted to take Alastair and Adrienne for lunch, but before she entered the ward, she heard Yvonne and Wilson quarreling. She was stunned and hesitated about whether she should go in or not.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Isn't Hansen fine right now?"

"What I mean is to take him abroad for treatment. Isn't it better?" Wilson's tone was clearly displeased.

"How can you compare the doctors overseas with those here? Don't you know better?" Yvonne shouted angrily.

Her words probably reminded Wilson of something so he stopped talking.

She sat alone on the sofa and cried.

Everleigh knocked on the door and opened it.

When Wilson and Yvonne saw her, they were both startled. They turned their heads away from her as if to cover up their embarrassment.

"I am taking Alastair and Adrienne for a meal. Also, patients with heart disease need a quiet place to rest. Try to lower your voices or he'll have a hard time," she commanded as she walked in.

Alastair and Adrienne were both standing beside Hansen, listening to his parents bicker. Adrienne was so frightened that she hid behind Alastair.

Seeing their mother, the two ran into her arms without saying anything.

Upon seeing this, Hansen felt a bit envious of them.

Everleigh left with her two children and the ward fell into silence again.

After returning to the office, she closed the door. Christopher knew that the two children came so he bought a lot of snacks, and of course, ice cream was a must. When Adrienne saw the food, she forgot all her worries. However, Alastair's eyes were dark and no one could tell what he was thinking.

"Alastair, eat something," Christopher called out.

Only then did he come to his senses.

"Mommy, will Hansen be fine?"

"It's hard to say," Everleigh replied in a low voice. Alastair's intelligence was unlike any child his age; it was not easy to fool him.

Alastair frowned and said softly, "It seems like his father doesn't want him to live."

Christopher and Everleigh looked at each other and did not speak.

"Alastair, every parent loves their child. You're overthinking."

"That's right. You're sentimental. There's no father who doesn't love his own child." Christopher's words followed after Everleigh's.

Alastair lowered his eyes and ate silently.

In the afternoon, the children went back home. After all, there were many people in the hospital. Everleigh couldn't always take them with her. Everleigh looked at Yvonne who had red eyes, and asked, "Yvonne, what do you want to see me about?"

"Everleigh, you heard our conversation right?"

Everleigh admitted in silence.

"I have been with him for so many years, but I have never seen such a cruel person. He wants Hansen to die." Yvonne's voice trembled as she spoke.

The fear in her eyes was obvious.

Everleigh handed her a tissue and did not speak.

"Everleigh, you are also a parent. You should understand my feelings. You wouldn't want anything bad to happen to your child even if it costs your life. All I did was to help Hansen live a good life, but he wants to destroy my only hope." The more Yvonne said, the sadder she got. The emotions that she had long suppressed burst out.
