Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Everleigh's interest was piqued. People like Madison knew how to maintain their health, so how could she allow herself to be sick? Stainley sighed and said, "She has osteoporosis, and it's getting worse."

She didn't say anything. This didn't have much to do with her. It was good enough if she could take care of herself.

"Madison is now hospitalized here, and the police are watching over her," he continued.

She did not say anything but wondered if she should go and have a look.

He saw through her mind, "I'd advise you not to poke your nose into other people's business. She's not mentally sane." She smiled slightly. She also agreed with his statement.

It would be very difficult even for Theodore to protect her if she came here in the middle of the day to murder someone.

She didn't forget how the onlookers took photos during the incident. Maybe the news had already spread across the Internet.

"I am going to continue to work. You take a rest." Stainley saw her upset and did not want to bother her any longer.

Everleigh sat alone in the office. After thinking for a while, she thought that it was better to go and take a look. At least, she had an explanation for Theodore.

When she arrived at the door, she saw a policeman guarding on the other side. There was another person standing at the door. It was Moses.

He was very surprised to see her coming, but it was only for a second.

"Miss Trevino."

"When did Theodore come back?"

"In the morning, he heard about Mrs. Godfrey's matter and came straight over," he did not hide anything.

Just when Everleigh was contemplating if she should enter, Madison's voice came from inside. "What are you doing here? You came to watch my bad ending, didn't you?" "Mom, can't you just behave properly?"

"Behave properly? I have devoted most of my life to the wellbeing of the company, but you've gone and ruined everything. It wouldn't matter if you could hold the fort, but you let Yvonne take advantage of it. Don't you dare think that I don't know it's all because of Everleigh." Madison's voice was so loud that it could even be clearly heard in the corridor.

Theodore looked at her coldly, but he was not angry after hearing her words.

"What are you looking at? Am I wrong? Do you know what it took me to bring you to this position?"

"As I said before, the reason I could sit in this position was because of my own abilities. I don't need anyone."

Madison's eyes turned cold as she glared at him. "You think you've grown up, haven't you? You don't even care about what your mother thinks anymore."

"In the family's current situation, do you think you can gain anything with just some shares? Your shrewdness, compared with Yvonne, is far inferior. If Grandma didn't help and support you over the years, do you think you can get to where you are today?" Theodore's cold voice surrounded the room, and his eyes were still on Madison.

She was appalled.

She couldn't understand.

"What do you mean?"

"Mom, I'm doing this for your own good. The Godfrey Group that you've been thinking about has already become a thing of the past. If you still want to live a carefree life, behave yourself, otherwise, I won't be able to protect you." Theodore didn't want to say anything else to her.

She could never see further than her nose. Sometimes, she would even think that she had done nothing wrong.

Godfrey Group will definitely wane in the hands of a person like her sooner or later.

Everleigh heard it clearly at the door, especially the last sentence.

It must have been since Yvonne joined Godfrey Group that the Godfrey family was no longer the way it used to be.

"If I was to return to Godfrey Group, it would still be my world," said Madison proudly.

Theodore replied with a sneer. Her world?

Godfrey Group had never belonged to one single person, and even he himself had never had complete ownership of the company.

The family had always focused on everyone's benefits; they never cared about how others did. Anybody could own Godfrey Group one day, and someone else more outstanding would step through the door and replace them the next day. Whoever could bring the biggest benefit would be placed on top.

"Sure, keep dreaming." He left after saying so.

When he opened the door, he saw Everleigh, who was standing right in front of him. His eyes slightly flickered and he said gently, "When did you come?"

"A while ago." She didn't try to hide it. Everyone there were his people, so there was no point hiding.

"Let's go out and talk." He closed the door.

The two of them came to the back garden and sat on a bench under the tree. It looked pleasant.

"What are you going to do about this?"

"I can't let her go to jail," he replied in a low voice.

Everleigh did not speak. She had already known he would say that.

"What Yvonne cares about most is Hansen. She won't let your mother off that easily now that she had threatened him like that. It even almost cost his life. I'm afraid you're in deep water this time."

Theodore's eyes flashed as he turned his head to look at her. There was a hint of a twinkle in his eyes. "You're worrying about me."

"Isn't it normal? But I have a suggestion."

"Tell me about it."

She hesitated for a moment and said, "If you want to do something, letting your mother go to prison may be the best plan. First, it is to stop her from causing any trouble. Second, it is also a kind of protection for her. Otherwise, Yvonne or the others would not let her go easily."

She believed that with Theodore's intelligence, he would have already figured out who she was referring to as 'the others'.

She had never fully grasped the conversation she had with Christopher until she saw Wilson. Only then had she figured it out.

He was a little surprised. "You... knew it all along?"

"At first, I couldn't figure it out, but eventually I did. This person is really shrewd. Using the feud between two women to achieve his goal."

Theodore's thin lips were tightly pursed, and the emotions in his eyes were complicated.

"Just pretend that you don't know, okay?"

"I'm no saint, but the premise is that he doesn't come at me." Everleigh's voice was full of seriousness. She could pretend nothing had happened this time, but she would not remain silent if it were to happen again.

He didn't say anything. He decided in his heart that he wouldn't allow her to get involved any further.

Everleigh returned to the ward to check up on Hansen. She was at ease when she knew he was doing alright.

Christopher had been waiting for her in the office. Looking at her tired face, he said worriedly, "Why don't you go back and have a rest? You've been through a lot today." "I'm fine."

"Did you get the answer?"

"You know about it too?" She asked in reply.

He chuckled and said nothing.

It seemed that there was still a great tacit understanding between them.

"We won't take part in it. Just be careful in the future."

"You're right. We'll also need proof. I have investigated the matter, and Madison's sudden appearance was a major breakthrough."

"Didn't you say you wouldn't do anything about it?" She asked.

He shook his forefinger, curled his lips, and said, "You should have evidence to prove everything. Be careful of who you trust." She was too lazy to care about it anymore. He could do as he pleased.
