Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Theodore's question was unnecessary. Although they hadn't seen each other for so many years, they knew a lot of things about each other. They were all inarticulate people.

Especially after Xavier's legs were impaired, their meet-ups were shortened.

However, the affection between brothers couldn't be erased.

"I'll take care of this matter. You don't have to worry about it," Theodore suddenly spoke.

"Why? Are you really worried that I'll ruin your future?" Xavier stared at him with a gloomy look, and the anger in him gradually rose.

Could it be that after so many years of being brothers, he still couldn't trust him?

Theodore knew that Xavier was angry, but he wasn't upset at all. "I have other things to do. Give me some time. It's up to you whether you want to keep it or destroy it."

Xavier didn't say a word. Theodore noticed the relaxed expression on his face.

"Okay, but the final decision will be decided by me," Xavier uttered.

Theodore didn't answer him. Instead, he turned around and walked out.

When he arrived downstairs, Theodore ordered, "Go and tidy up the room. Tell him to visit my company more often if he has time."

"Mr. Theodore, you should know Mr. Xavier's temperament. He listens to you the most in the whole Godfrey family. I hope you can persuade him more," Lucas advised with a distressed look on his face. He watched the two children grow up, and he didn't want anything to happen to either of them.

Theodore's eyes darkened. Without saying a word, he left the place.

The next day, when Everleigh got up, she thought that she would see warm sunshine. However, she saw the sky covered with dark clouds and there were a few flashes of lightning. The sky was dark and gloomy, giving people a sense of oppression.

"Fortunately, I don't have to go to work today. It's the best time for me to read at home." Everleigh was complaining, but her body language proved otherwise. She woke up early and washed up.

She was a self-disciplined person. Every single moment of her schedule was filled to the brim. It had become a habit of hers.

When she went downstairs, Alastair was already sitting in the living room, reading a book, while Adrienne was bored, leaning on the sofa, reading a comic book.

Selena also walked down, carrying her suitcase with her.

"Where are you going when it's about to rain?" Everleigh asked.

"I'm going to the airport. I'm going abroad to make up for the loss." Selena looked anxious, as if she was afraid that she could not catch her plane.

Everleigh quickly took two hard boiled eggs and a slice of toast from the dining table and ordered, "Eat them on the way. You'll faint if you board the plane with an empty stomach."

Without a word, Selena took the food and disappeared in the rain.

"Mommy, Aunt Selena cried for a long time last night." Adrienne waited until Selena was not in her sight before she spoke.

Everleigh turned around. "How did you know?"

"When I came out to drink water last night, I heard her crying, and she sounded really sad. Mommy, is Aunt Selena going away because she's upset?" Adrienne's little face frowned, and her black eyes were full of worry. Everleigh's expression darkened. She knew that Selena was reluctant to part with Leon, but it was hard to talk about relationship issues. Furthermore, she didn't know where to start.

The autumn rain continued to fall. The morning had passed, but the rain did not stop. It was so gloomy that it made people feel depressed.

Everleigh was holding a book in her hand, but she was actually staring out the window, listening carefully to the sound of the rain.

...

Xavier listened to Theodore's words and went straight to Godfrey Group. His appearance caused quite a stir, and even Loraine was surprised. She had only heard of his name, but she had never seen him before. "Mommy, why would Xavier come over? Didn't you say that he was disabled?" She looked at Yvonne with a puzzled look.

Yvonne's face was expressionless, and her eyes were absent-minded as if she was thinking about something. "Mommy." Loraine's call brought Yvonne back to her senses.

"I'll go and have a look. Stay here quietly." Yvonne didn't even look at her and went straight out of the office.

Loraine didn't ask more when she saw her mother's expression. She just sat there and waited for her obediently.

When Xavier came to Theodore's office, he wasn't surprised. He could see that Xavier was still very attached to this company.

"Why did you come out for a walk today?" He asked.

"Why do you ask?" Xavier snorted. He turned his head and noticed the documents on the desk. Then, he picked them up and looked at them.

After reading it, he sneered, "It hasn't even been a year, yet you've already reached such a level."

"I'm not as capable as you," Theodore said lightly. He didn't take Xavier's mockery to heart.

Xavier's eyes were cold, and he directly patted the table. "These things are all superficial. You have been the president for so many years. How could you be suppressed by Yvonne like this?"

As soon as the voice fell, Yvonne came in from the door. "Xavier, what you said is wrong. We performed our own duties. How could it be that I'm suppressing him?"

Theodore and Xavier both looked at the door. Yvonne was wearing a standard black suit and her hair was tied up. Her usual tactfulness had disappeared, but there was a cold look on her face.

"These documents are proving otherwise. Why must a President ask for confirmation on an opening date?" Xavier turned the wheelchair around without any fear. It was evident from his expression that he resented her. When he had an accident that year, the woman was giving birth to a baby, which also gave Wilson an alibi.

He had investigated it before, but Yvonne's testimony had cleared Wilson from suspicion. If it wasn't for Everleigh, he would never have found this point.

"This is his own choice. At the board meeting, Theodore said not to ask him anything, and that it was enough to get Loraine's answer. I can't just sit by and watch as the Godfrey family is buried in many matters, right?" She replied with a smile. All these were Theodore's own words.

How could Xavier blame her?

Xavier glanced back at Theodore, and annoyance flashed across his eyes. "So his words are final? He also told you to get out of the company. Why didn't you listen to him?" Theodore lowered his head and looked at Xavier's angered expression. He found it very funny.

In the past, why didn't Xavier treat him so strictly? He knew the truth now, so he understood that he couldn't continue to be decadent?

Yvonne looked unbothered, and her tone became a little heavier. "Xavier, you'd better be polite. I am your stepmother anyway. My children shall have a say in this company." "Greedy people will always be greedy. I'm afraid that you've been waiting for this day for a long time," Xavier mocked, and his face was full of disdain as he looked at her. After all, she was from a small family and would never make it to the big scene.

Yvonne was enraged by his words, and her gaze became solemn. "You can't say that. My children's surname is also Godfrey."

After a long period of silence, Theodore finally opened his mouth and chimed in, "Even that requires Grandma's approval. Grandma is dead, but that doesn't mean that she would agree." "As for the two children, Grandma once said that she would not let them enter the Godfrey family."
