Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Abraham became confused when he saw Everleigh's eyes become red. "What's the matter?"

"Nothing, I just got sentimental. There was a child in the hospital today who was unconscious because of her father's actions. It makes me wonder sometimes, how can the differences be so big between fathers?" Everleigh beat around the bush, but her meaning was the same.

He smiled and said, "People have always been like that. Some say that there are vicious children but no vicious parents, but it also depends on the individual. I love my girls equally." That was what moved her the most. "Thank you, Dad."

"We're family. There's no need to be polite like that. I don't like it," he responded.

He had never been a sentimental person. He did not like to say these cheesy words.

She understood him, so she didn't say anything else.

The next day, when Everleigh got to the hospital, she went to see Loraine first. In the morning, Stainley had told her the possibility of Loraine waking up would be less than 50%. Her impression of Wilson worsened.

This man was the devil.

Yvonne stayed awake all night by Loraine's side. Everleigh knew that she didn't eat anything, so she bought some oatmeal for her.

"Yvonne, have some oatmeal." Everleigh handed the food to her. Yvonne's eyes were bloodshot.

Her eyes widened. How could she look so haggard after only one night?

"Thank you, but I don't have an appetite." Yvonne's voice was hoarse.

Everleigh opened the lunch box while persuading her, "Yvonne, it's a protracted war. If you want her to wake up, you'd better eat some food. Otherwise, you won't have any energy. As a mother, I know exactly how it feels when something bad has happened to my children.

Yvonne lowered her gaze and looked at the steaming oatmeal. Then, she looked up at Everleigh's concerned face.

She felt very moved.

"You are the first person to say such a thing to me," Yvonne said.

"What about Mr. Godfrey? Didn't he comfort you?" Everleigh asked tentatively.

Yvonne felt very uncomfortable at the mention of Wilson. He... was also a father.

"Everleigh, what kind of person do you think Wilson is?" Yvonne took the oatmeal in her hands and hot steam evaporated on her face.

Everleigh looked surprised and confused, "Yvonne, what do you mean by that? It doesn't matter what I think of him. It's you who matters. You two are husband and wife."

"Everleigh, you are a smart person. How can you not know what I mean?" Yvonne added.

"Yvonne, what are you trying to say? I'm not very smart." Everleigh didn't know what she wanted to do, so she should say it in advance.

That was so she could prepare herself mentally.

Yvonne took a bite of the oatmeal and did not answer. Everleigh was not in a hurry and sat quietly beside her.

It was not until Yvonne finished the food that she pointed out slowly. "I always thought Wilson loved me, so I was willing to risk everything to be with him. However, I realize that I am wrong now." Everleigh still did not speak, waiting for her to continue.

"In this past year, I realized how ridiculous my persistence in love was. Wilson didn't care about us at all."

Everleigh's eyes lowered, "Could this be the reason she fought with Theodore to take over Godfrey Group?"

"Yvonne, you..."

"Everleigh, remember this, never marry a man whom you love. Look at me, I'm a joke, aren't I?" Yvonne mocked herself as her eyes were filled with regrets.

Everleigh was also in deep thought. In the past, she also had this kind of feeling. She loved Theodore very much. However after suffering from a series of suppressions, she found that she had never changed her mind. Someone once said, the more you loved someone, the more you hated them. She loathed Theodore so much back then, but when she discovered that all of this had nothing to do with him, she heaved a sigh of relief. Otherwise, she would not have rekindled her relationship with him.

"Perhaps there is still some sincerity in Mr. Godfrey's heart to you. Otherwise, why would he leave Godfrey Group? Think about it, Madam Scott didn't like him back then. This time, isn't it still..."

Upon hearing this, Yvonne was more irritated, as her voice became more chilling, "That was his plan. He never thought of giving us a good life." "What do you mean?"

Yvonne realized that she had said too much. She took a deep breath, turned around, and replied in a low voice, "Nothing. Are you going to work?"

"Well, I don't have much time, but I wanted to see you. I'll bring you lunch at noon. Yvonne, if you have something to say to Loraine, just tell her. This will give her a chance to wake up." Everleigh knew that she didn't want to go on. She wouldn't ask anymore.

Yvonne looked at her gratefully, "Okay, thank you."

When Everleigh returned to her office, she saw Theodore sitting on a chair, looking through her stack of medical records.

The words on it were just as familiar as before.

"Why are you here?" She asked curiously.

"I told you yesterday that I'd come, didn't I? I knew you wouldn't be able to go out, so I came to look for you." He got up, held her hand, and let her sit on the chair.

"I don't have time this morning," she replied.

"It's alright, I'll just take a look at you now." Theodore pointed out as he opened the box of food on the table. It was filled with her favorite pastries.

"So sumptuous?"

"Mm," he nodded.

He picked up the food for her with his long slender fingers, which made her dumbfounded. He used to treat her the same way, and she also told him that she didn't know how to cook.

It turned out that she really didn't know how to cook.

"I went to see Yvonne just now, and I felt that there was something wrong between her and Wilson." Everleigh took a bite and said casually.

He was expressionless. To him, it wasn't anything to be surprised about.

"Mm." He replied indifferently.

"Huh? Don't you want to know what's going on?" She asked in shock.

He pulled over a chair and sat down in front of her. He remarked meaningfully, "Yvonne is a very smart woman, and I know my father's character. It's only a matter of time before something bad happens between them." She suddenly realized that Theodore may appear indifferent, but in fact, he knew everything.

"Then did you know he did this to Loraine?" She asked.

"Yes."

Everleigh's pupils dilated and she exclaimed in a high pitch, "You knew and yet you didn't tell me?"

Seeing how intense her reaction was, Theodore's deep gaze was filled with helplessness, "This is exactly how I thought you'd react if I told you. You have a close relationship with Loraine. I knew you would be able to guess quickly judging by your attentiveness."

She really wanted to laugh. What a bad excuse! When she thought back to Wilson's expression from the night before, coldness grew in her heart.

Those eyes were horrifying enough to give her a few nightmares.
