Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

When Everleigh noticed Christopher's blabbering mouth, she felt really helpless and said, "Can you shut your mouth?"

"If you want to ask for Cecil's help, but don't want to tell her the situation, why should she help you?" He remarked. She was startled; it seemed that his words were quite reasonable.

Cecil was puzzled. She moved her eyes and responded, "If you have something to say, say it quickly."

"Okay," Christopher agreed and told her the whole story. Of course, he covered up Theodore's matter.

He also knew that Cecil didn't like Theodore. If he said anything, it might have the opposite effect.

Cecil was surprised after hearing the whole story. She turned to look at Everleigh and pointed out, "It has only been a few days since I last saw you. How have so many things happened?" "Life is unpredictable," Everleigh replied.

"You're optimistic. Wilson is so inhumane. Aren't you worried about yourself?" Cecil discovered that Everleigh was extraordinarily open-minded.

Other matters aside, the incident from eight years ago would've made any narrow-minded person hurt themselves.

However, Everleigh was able to give birth to her children and hold on until now.

"There's no use worrying about it. Now, the most important thing is to take measures. Christopher needs to go to the countryside, and he can't take care of me, so he wants to ask you for help," Everleigh didn't actually need her help. If Wilson wanted to harm her, there was nothing they could do.

She was certain that Cecil would agree to help, but she didn't want her best friend to get into trouble.

"Don't worry. I'll ask my brother to protect you in secret. If anything happens, he can take Wilson away and we won't need any other pieces of evidence." Cecil told her heroically.

It was as if she was a superhero.

When Christopher and Everleigh heard her words, they couldn't help but laugh.

However, he was relieved. Cecil was a thoughtful person, so it was best for Everleigh to be with her.

The day passed quickly. Cecil had been staying with Everleigh, mainly because she didn't want to see Diana. In the past, she used to think that her sister spoke bashfully like a lady, but now, she realized that she was a shameless b*tch. Everleigh had finished her work. She took off her white coat and suggested, "Let's go and see your brother."

"So soon? Let's have a meal together before we do." Cecil glanced at the time. She wouldn't be in the mood to eat if they went up now.

Everleigh thought for a while and figured that it would be better to eat dinner first, so as not to waste any time.

"Let's go and eat first then," she said softly.

Cecil was jubilant and she dragged Everleigh to the restaurant near the hospital. After they came out of the restaurant, Everleigh bought some fruits, which were packaged nicely. "You didn't have to buy that. He's not lacking anything," Cecil told her.

"We can't visit a patient empty-handed." Everleigh was very particular about her style of doing things. She couldn't go there empty-handed.

Cecil knew that she was a polite person, so she let her be.

When they came to the ward, they saw Diana sitting next to Zeldan's bed as expected. She was thoughtfully peeling apples for him.

"Zeldan, you need to eat more to recover," Diana advised him in a delicate voice. Men would melt hearing her voice, however, women would feel disgusted.

Everleigh stood at the door and looked at Diana, who was talking. She had on a red dress and her black hair was somewhat messy. Diana's face was similar to Cecil's, but she had her own beauty.

Cecil was like a lily while Diana was like a rose.

"Lenold," Cecil interrupted her sister.

Lenold and Zeldan looked over and saw Cecil and Everleigh standing at the door.

"Everleigh, you're here. Come in and have a seat," Lenold suggested in an instant, and pointed to the sofa nearby.

Diana also noticed them. She stood up and said with a smile, "Everleigh, you're here. Come in. You didn't have to bring anything."

Everleigh smiled and gave the things in her hand to Diana, "It's a small gift." She spoke and went towards Lenold and Zeldan, "How are you guys doing?"

"We're fine. Minor injuries like this are normal for us," Zeldan explained.

Lenold smiled with approval.

"You guys should be more careful. You guys may be heroes who protect our country, but your health is also very important." Everleigh's gaze was full of emotions, showing her love and gratitude to the soldiers. When Lenold witnessed it, a smile appeared on his face, "Okay, we will be more careful."

"Everleigh, please have some water," Diana suggested.

Diana served her a glass of water and a smile spread across her face, "I saw you in the emergency room yesterday. Did something happen to your friend?"

"It's my former patient." She took a sip of water, and she lowered her gaze to hide her emotions.

Diana pretended to be surprised and asked, "When did you start treating Wilson?"

Cecil's and Everleigh's faces immediately changed. Everleigh chuckled and responded, "Wilson's son is my patient. I heard that something happened to them, so I went over to have a look. You haven't been in the country for a few years, so I'm surprised that you still know Wilson."

Hearing this, Diana looked embarrassed and replied with an awkward smile, "He comes from the Four Greatest Households, so it's not surprising that I know him."

Everleigh nodded. There was nothing wrong with it, but she still felt a strange sensation.

On the other hand, Cecil sat on the sofa with her arms crossed, and she stared at Diana for a long time.

Wilson had been kicked out a long time ago and rarely appeared in the public eye. How could she know?

"Everleigh, have you been very busy recently?" Zeldan felt that there was something wrong with the atmosphere, so he asked softly.

"Not really, I was on the night shift previously. We've changed shifts today, so I have time to visit," she replied.

"You're so considerate. My sister always goes outside and doesn't come back home all day. She claimed that she came here to take care of me." Lenold teased, but Everleigh still saw the adoration in his gaze.

Diana also noticed it and said with a smile, "Lenold, you care so much about Cecil. I'm so envious."

"You're also a member of the Hayes family. You shouldn't say that as if we can't tolerate you." Cecil sat aside and told her coldly.

Hearing this, Diana's smile froze on her face.

Not only her, but even Zeldan and Lenold were also appalled.

No one expected Cecil to say such words.

Everleigh knew that Cecil was irritated, but it was not appropriate to say so at that instant.

"Cecil," she called her.

"I'm just kidding. Relax." Cecil spoke carelessly as if this was her nature.

Hearing her words, three of them breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's getting late. Everleigh, let me take you home." Cecil got up from the sofa, carried her bag, and got ready to leave.

"I can go back by myself," she answered.

"Let her send you back. It's already so late. It won't be safe for a woman like you to go home alone." Lenold advised her.

Everleigh hesitated for a moment before she nodded in agreement.

Diana saw them out of the hospital. "Everleigh, I'll come and chat with you tomorrow."

"I'm afraid that I don't have time tomorrow," Everleigh refused her proposal. It was true that she didn't have time, but she also didn't want to talk to her.
