Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Everleigh knew that there was something wrong with the drink, so she had water instead. She didn't expect Cecil to give it to them. "It seems like it's going to be a humiliating day for the Jenkins family," she said as she looked over at the red-faced Cynthia.

She could see that everyone present was waiting for the Jenkins family to make fools of themselves.

Hearing her criticism, Cecil snorted, "Everleigh, if I didn't do this, the joke would have been on you."

Everleigh's face stiffened as she turned to look at her.

Cecil was a little angry at her for what she had just said. It was just an eye for an eye.

She wouldn't have been able to swallow the bitter pill, not to mention Everleigh.

Theodore somehow admired her for it. "She's not wrong. If you confront them about it afterwards, who would admit to doing it?" Everleigh looked up at the two of them.

She found out that they were very like-minded when it came to things like that.

At that moment, Cynthia was still laughing uncontrollably and wanted to continue stripping off, but someone was stopping her from doing so.

"Take her to the guest room upstairs," Saniogo ordered in a serious tone.

Upon seeing the entire situation, Abraham subconsciously looked at Everleigh. When he saw that she was just hanging out with a few others not far away, he was relieved.

She felt her father's gaze, and felt rather sad. In such a situation, the person who cared most about her was still her father.

Although she knew that they were not biologically related, deep down, she considered him so.

Cynthia and Sisley were then taken to a room. For a moment, the huge living room was so quiet that they could hear a pin drop.

Saniogo looked really unhappy, but he couldn't just chase away the guests like that.

"Everyone, there has been an accident, but please do not mind about it." No one said anything after his words rang out.

Everyone would've handled it the same way. After such an embarrassing incident, how could anyone still pretend as if nothing had ever happened?

The crowd then dispersed, but no one continued to talk about it. They could only discuss it after they had left.

Saniogo asked Alexander to keep an eye on the guests, then he went upstairs.

Everleigh noticed their actions. Theodore's charming voice sounded in her ear, "Should we step forward to watch the fun?"

"Wouldn't we become targets if we go forward now?" She replied.

"So you do know that you are a target, huh?" Cecil said sarcastically.

Everleigh rolled her eyes. "Come on Cecil, calm down. I'm just thinking that the Jenkins family is a rich and influential family. What you've just done has really humiliated them."

Cecil stared at her and grunted coldly, but the anger in her heart had greatly decreased.

Undeniably, what Everleigh had just said was true. The Jenkins family was the one feeling embarrassed, but she just couldn't control her anger.

Shortly after, Saniogo came down, and his face showed no emotions.

Everleigh sighed and murmured, "No wonder he can be in the position he's in today. He can really hide his emotions."

"Everleigh." He called out as he walked over to them, not hearing what she had just said.

"Uncle," she greeted back.

He saw Theodore standing by her side, but he chose to ignore him. He wasn't interested in the Godfrey family at all.

"Follow me, I'll introduce you to a few people," he said as he pulled her with him.

He didn't care whether she agreed or not.

Cecil stood at a side and mocked Theodore, "It's really difficult for you to be with Everleigh."

"You don't have to tell me about it. You should deal with your own problems first. Diana has been unusually quiet lately. Don't you know anything about it?" He looked at her disdainfully; the coldness in his eyes could make anyone tremble. Her eyes narrowed slightly, as she began to let out a dangerous aura. "Have you been keeping an eye on me?"

"Nope, it's your dear sister. She tried to take over the Godfrey family's estate, and I just happened to see it." He raised his wine glass, made a toasting gesture and turned around to walk away.

Cecil was rather angry. Theodore and Leon were really two peas in a pod. The way they talked and the way they looked were really similar. They really deserved a good beating.

However... She had indeed been too relaxed with Diana lately.

Who would have thought that she would cause so much trouble?

It seemed that she should really carry out a proper investigation.

Saniogo brought Everleigh around as he asked, "What's going on between you and Theodore?"

"Uncle, I will explain it to you in the future." She had guessed that he would ask about it, but it wasn't the right time to say such things.

After all, he was still prejudiced against Theodore.

Saniogo's face darkened, and he did not ask any further.

He understood that Everleigh had her own plans, and he shouldn't say anything. However, involvement with the Godfrey family had to be given careful consideration. They walked around to meet different people, and he introduced them to her one by one.

One of them saw her and asked, "Aren't you the Meyer family's..."

"Yes, I'm the Meyer family's daughter-in-law." Everleigh had met quite a lot of people at the recent banquet held by the Meyer family. If she denied it, it would be a huge insult to them. "I just met Miss Meyer, but where is she right now..."

"I'm here, Mr. Quilt." Felicia was wearing a black evening dress. Her good figure was visible, and her short hair made her look even sharper.

Everleigh looked at her with the same unchanged expression.

"Miss Meyer, I wanted to greet you just now, but you were talking with someone else, so I didn't want to interrupt."

"It's okay, we can talk now," Felicia said coolly.

Saniogo admired her very much. She could manage a company so well at such a young age. Although his own son was also excellent, it was really rare to see a woman in the business world. Everleigh felt bored listening to their conversation.

Alexander saw her, and pulled her over to have a chat.

Upon seeing that, Felicia suddenly said, "Everleigh, follow me back to the Meyers' home later."

Everleigh froze as she nodded.

Saniogo could sense her discomfort, and he knew exactly why. He decided to let Alexander go with her. After all, the two families were considered in-laws. "It's so boring listening to them talking," Alexander complained.

"There's no choice. Even if it's boring, we have to listen and show some respect. After all, these people are doing business with Uncle," she explained helplessly. The banquet was indeed a tiring event.

Soon, it was finally over. Everyone left one after another. Everleigh wanted to leave with Abraham, but she was stopped by Saniogo. "Everleigh, you need to follow Miss Meyer back later, but come up with me first."

"Okay, but let me send my friends off first." Everleigh saw Cecil gesturing at her earlier, saying that she would wait for her at the door. Saniogo nodded.

Cecil and Theodore were standing by the door, waiting for Everleigh to come out.

"Let's go, I'll send you home." It was the first thing Theodore said as soon as he saw her.

She shook her head. "I have to follow Felicia back to the Meyer family's home later."
