Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Everleigh heard his threat, but she didn't care, "When I came back from abroad, I knew the people who didn't like me would not let me go so easily, but I didn't think that person would be you." Wilson sneered. His expression was cold, and his gaze was gloomy like a Grim Reaper.

He did not feel that he had done anything wrong.

On the contrary, it was what he should do.

Wilson walked past her and went towards the door. When he opened the door, he paused and asked, "Everleigh, do you know who will keep secrets?"

Her body was trembling with fear. As she turned around in horror, Wilson had already disappeared from the door.

Her eyes were filled with concern and fear. She was not fearful of what would happen to her, but rather, to Alastair and Adrienne.

What should she do if he wanted to harm them?

Christopher came in and saw her standing in the same place. She looked absent-minded.

"Everleigh, what are you looking at?" He asked.

"Huh? I'm fine."

"You don't look like you're okay. What did he say? Did he threaten you?" He asked in a hurry. He looked worried.

She hesitated for a moment and told him everything.

He was so furious that he wanted to hit Wilson, "I told you this old man is not a good person. He still dared to threaten you after doing such things."

"You're leaving tomorrow, so don't worry about it. Didn't you mention that you've already told Felicia?" Everleigh pointed out.

"No, I'll tell Felicia that I won't go, and ask them to send someone else." He waved his hand and replied righteously.

Everleigh couldn't get used to his demeanor. She laughed and answered, "Stop looking for excuses. Don't worry, I'll be fine. Besides, Theodore is here. He knows his father well."

Christopher gave her a sidelong glance. Then, he pursed his lips without saying anything.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" She asked in confusion.

He lowered his gaze and said with a wry smile, "You still like him, don't you?"

She was silent for a moment before she nodded earnestly. She could lie to others, but she couldn't do it to Christopher.

He had helped her sincerely, so she couldn't lie to him at all.

"Forget it, I should have known your feelings toward him long ago. You had already forgiven him when you were at the airport, didn't you?" He remarked.

Christopher's eyes were bright as he stared at her motionlessly, unwilling to miss any expressions.

Everleigh curled her lips and felt sad, "Back then, I thought I was going to die. I thought if I really had AIDS, I would ask Theodore to raise my children. My father is old and he can only do so much. When I was facing death, I realized that I could really forget all the hatred, and remember the wonderful moments."

Upon hearing her words, his expression became indifferent. His gaze was filled with sorrow as if he had experienced the many vicissitudes of life.

He also had a deep understanding of this feeling.

"Later, I was fine and knew that God was willing to give me a chance. This time, I won't miss it no matter what. Christopher, perhaps you will think that I have forgotten loyalty when I'm in love, or that I have forgotten what is right. However, I really don't want to miss all of this again," she told him affectionately.

The brightness in her gaze could not be ignored. It was the love she had for her lover.

Christopher didn't know what to say. He could only stand aside and look at her.

"Since you've already made up your mind, I won't say any further. Will Theodore protect you all the time?" He commented. "Yes, he will," Everleigh said certainly as she looked at him.

Since Theodore was able to find out about Loraine's incident so quickly, he must have sent someone to keep an eye on Wilson. It was definitely not a coincidence for Theodore and Xavier to show up together when Loraine met with an accident. Seeing that she was so sure, Christopher was no longer anxious.

"Well, then you should be more careful. If something happens, look for Cecil. By the way, where did she go?" He pointed out.

When she talked about Cecil, she felt annoyed for her. Everleigh heard that after Diana came back, she found out Cecil had a 'boyfriend', so she kept following Zeldan everywhere. Although Cecil was not pleased, she was also delighted. She should've let Diana come back earlier.

It would've solved her troubles earlier.

Everleigh briefly told Christopher about their affairs. He scoffed, "I've heard that Diana is not loyal. Does she want to snatch every one of Cecil's boyfriends?"

Everleigh took a deep breath as she wouldn't comment on others. Although she didn't like Cecil's sister, as a best friend, she couldn't say anything about it. However, after she knew the truth, she didn't care too much about it. As soon as Christopher finished speaking, Cecil appeared at the door and responded, "Are you guys talking bad about me?" "Cecil." Both of them said in unison.

"You guys haven't come and looked for me for a while. Were you doing something in secret?" Cecil was still wearing a black short-sleeved shirt paired with black jeans and her hair was messy. She set her astute eyes on both of them, displeased.

"How is that possible? Didn't you say that you won't step out of your house during this period of time? Today, why are you..." Everleigh asked.

"Zeldan and my brother were injured when they were on a mission. They're just upstairs, so I stopped by to see you guys." Cecil spoke in a clear and bright voice. When she talked about her brother's incident, she didn't feel distressed at all. "How did I not know? When did it happen?" Everleigh asked.

"Last night. I only heard from Diana this morning. She also said that she saw you in the emergency room," Cecil explained.

Everleigh didn't say anything. She knew that Cecil didn't like Theodore.

"Then, I'll go and have a look with you," Everleigh suggested.

"Forget it, they're fine for the time being. How about tonight? I'll stay over and so will Diana." When Cecil mentioned her sister, she felt extremely helpless.

She didn't think so before, but now, she found that she really couldn't continue to act.

She had always been an insistent person. Acting was not her strong suit.

"Your sister will express her care for Zeldan, right?" Christopher interjected, but his teasing look made people feel annoyed.

Cecil pouted her mouth and ignored his teasing. Instead, she responded sarcastically, "Why? Do you still want to chase her? But Diana loathes you now. If she knew you were here, she wouldn't let you off easily."

His expression abruptly changed. Diana was very clingy. Whenever she saw someone, she would want to stick to them 24/7. There was no private time at all.

Everyone knew that Diana did plastic surgery on purpose. She was pretty at first, but now, she looked almost identical to Cecil, and she had lost her charm.

Christopher promptly changed the subject. He walked over and wrapped his arm around Cecil's shoulder. He pretended to be mysterious and told her, "I have something to tell you. It's about Everleigh."
