Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Everleigh did not want to go with him, but because of his request, she had to follow.

Saniogo also wanted her to get acquainted with more people, so he did not object and allowed them to go mingle.

It just so happened that he had something to say to Mr. Trevino.

Everleigh and Alexander walked out. "Why did you bring me with you?"

"To introduce you to my friends. There's still an hour to go. Would you rather listen to them talk?" He pointed at his outstretched watch. He seemed to be implying that listening to their conversation was a bad thing. She had no choice but to follow him.

In the other room, several people were sitting together and chatting. When they saw Alexander and Everleigh walk in, they stopped talking and looked at Everleigh, who was trailing behind him.

"Alexander, is she your younger sister?" One of them asked in shock, his eyes glued to her.

Alexander brought Everleigh over to them and proceeded to make introductions, "This is Ralph Lockwood, Juman Fiore, Hendrick Meaker, and this is Yolex Trevino."

Everleigh tried to remember each of their names and smiled, "Hello, I'm Everleigh Trevino."

"Nice to meet you," the four men said in unison.

She looked at their faces and figured that birds of a feather really did flock together. Alexander was a gentleman, and so were his friends.

All four men had an air of splendor to them, and she believed that their families must be well off as well.

"Alexander, you're not exactly a discreet person, so how could you hide the fact that you have a sister like her from us?" Ralph said in disappointment, but the smile on his face widened.

"You guys don't have a chance anyway," Alexander replied in a low voice.

The four of them were puzzled, "Why's that?"

"Because I have two children," Everleigh replied sheepishly.

They froze and were dumbfounded because she did not look like a person who had given birth to children.

Alexander shook his head helplessly. He knew that Everleigh would tell the truth. She was cutting off all her chances at love, leaving no room for anyone at all.

Juman smiled awkwardly, "Miss Trevino, you're very amusing."

"I'm not being funny. What I said is true. If you don't believe me, you can take a look." She took out her phone and showed them photos of her and her children. It was impossible for them to not believe her.

"Wait, this child..." Hendrick, with his sharp eyes, felt that the boy in the photo was similar to someone he had seen before.

"Yeah, he looks like Theodore Godfrey," Yolex continued.

Everleigh smiled and silently kept the phone in her bag.

She said nothing else.

Alexander's face was a little cold, and he gave Yolex a look.

Yolex felt that there was something wrong with the mood and he immediately kept his mouth shut. However, he did not know why.

"It's about time. Let's go out first," Alexander said frigidly, and he stretched out his hand to pull Everleigh with him.

With a smile, she said, "We'll talk later."

The awkward atmosphere remained until the two figures disappeared from the room.

Ralph's entire body shuddered, "Why do I get the sense that Alexander was upset just now?"

"How would I know? All I said was that the child resembles..." Yolex stopped mid sentence, as if he had thought of something.

He had previously heard news about the Godfrey family, and it seemed to have something to do with Everleigh, but no one knew exactly what was going on. Could it be true?

Everleigh looked at Alexander's gloomy face and said, "Why are you being like this? They're your friends."

"It's better if you don't get involved with Theodore right now." Of course Alexander knew that they would not say anything, but they did not know what was going on, so it was better to leave certain things unsaid. She understood what he meant, so she did not say much.

"Why are the two of you here?" Saniogo asked in confusion when he opened the door and saw them standing in the middle of the corridor.

"Dad, why did you come out?"

"It's time. We're going downstairs," Abraham explained, his face emotionless.

Everleigh and Alexander exchanged looks and quietly followed Saniogo out of the corridor.

In the living room on the first floor, there were businessmen and several entertainment reporters milling about. Welment and his wife's passing had caused quite a commotion back then. Having heard that their daughter had been found, they simply could not miss out on the news.

The Godfrey family, the Hayes family, and the Meyer family were all present. Theodore was holding a glass of wine and chatting with his business partners. On his way over, he had sent Everleigh a message, but he had not heard anything from her yet.

Xavier approached him in his wheelchair, "Theodore, why are you here?"

Theodore looked down, not surprised to see his brother there. News of the eldest daughter of the Jenkins family had spread throughout Ocpeace City. It was not strange for the members of the Four Greatest Households to show up. "I came because someone invited me," Theodore replied in a low voice.

Xavier said nothing.

On the other side of the room, Felicia and Cecil ran into each other, and they were anxious because of Everleigh.

"Did you see Everleigh today?" Felicia's cold voice was not the least bit perturbed, as if it was right for her to speak like that.

"You'll see her in a while," replied Cecil. At the same time, she saw Lenold standing not far away.

Although he was in the army all year round, his circle of friends was not small. They were using the banquet as an opportunity to meet up.

Cecil glanced at the watch on her wrist and frowned slightly. She thought to herself, "Didn't they say that they would be on time? There's only one minute left. Why haven't they come out yet?"

Felicia was already sick of such occasions. She was planning to leave right after she saw the eldest daughter of the Jenkins family.

At that moment, the lights dimmed, and a spotlight shone on a spot on the second floor. Saniogo and Alexander descended the stairs.

With a smile on his wrinkled face, Saniogo walked to the center and said, "Thank you all for attending the Jenkins family's banquet. The main purpose of today's event is to introduce the long-lost daughter of the Jenkins family." The audience grew even more curious upon hearing that, and they were all eager to see what she looked like.

Saniogo knew that he could entice their curiosity.

The smile on his lips widened as he raised his voice and said, "Yasmine, come on out."

Everyone's gaze went to the second floor, and they saw Everleigh in a tight-fitting white dress. The diamonds on the dress were shining under the light. Her long hair was done up and her delicate makeup accentuated her beauty. The aura she gave off was different from before, as if she was an angel who was slowly descending in a forest.

Theodore's dark pupils gradually dilated, and the disbelief in his eyes was hard to ignore.

It was not only him who was surprised. Wilson, Xavier, and Felicia had the same expressions.

They never thought that Everleigh was the missing member of the Jenkins family.

For a moment, Wilson did not know how to react. He had initially thought that she would not bring any good to Theodore, which was why he had taken action against her. However, now he was finding out that she was actually the daughter of the Jenkins family.

This...

He had gone there to see what the famous Miss Jenkins looked like, but he had never dreamed that it would be her.
