Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

"Come and take a look!" The nurse handed over her phone. It was a news article. The headlines wrote, 'Theodore Godfrey has set up his own company. Medical company is officially listed.' Everleigh was stunned. Had he been preparing for it a long time ago?

Looking at the date of the news, it was just published that morning.

She was even more surprised. She hurriedly took out her phone and called him.

He had returned to his own company after the conversation with Benedict. He wasn't surprised to receive a call from her.

"Everleigh."

"When did you start your company? How come I didn't know about it?"

Theodore smiled, "It isn't operating just yet. I've just sent out the news ahead of time."

She took a look at the nurse's phone. Indeed, there wasn't a specific address for the company.

Maxwell heard the voice over the phone and shook his head helplessly. He then left the room with the nurse, giving Everleigh some privacy.

She didn't even notice that they had left. Instead, she asked him, "Why did you choose to publish it at this time?"

His words came from the bottom of his heart, "Since something has just happened to you a while ago, I decided to announce it in advance to protect you from any danger. I didn't expect you to be the daughter of the Jenkins family. This will actually give you more protection."

He was afraid that the Trevino family couldn't protect her. It was the reason he hired her as the chief researcher. After the event the night before, he had finally realized that no one would be able to harm Everleigh with her identity. "Are you worried that Wilson will hurt me?" She frowned. She understood the meaning behind his words.

He didn't answer her question, but he didn't deny it either.

Wilson wasn't planning to attack her; he had already initiated an attack.

If Theodore wasn't at the hospital that day and overheard the conversation in the back alley, something bad would've already happened to her.

If something had really happened, he wouldn't know what he would do to Wilson.

"What are your plans now?"

"The company has already been approved by the government, so the Godfrey family can't control me anymore. It's actually good for me to make the announcement in advance," he explained patiently.

Everleigh knew that it would happen sooner or later, so it seemed that it wasn't really a wrong move.

The news of Theodore's company being listed had garnered a lot of attention in the industry. Back then, when he suddenly gave his position to Xavier, everyone thought that it was Xavier who had plotted a scheme to take everything away from him. When they heard that Theodore had established his own company, they finally figured out that he had great ambitions.

Wilson was infuriated to know the news. He kicked his chair over in the office.

Feeling enraged, he stood in front of the window and looked at the distant scenery with a gloomy face.

No wonder Theodore was so willing to give his position away to Xavier.

All he wanted was to cut ties with the Godfrey family completely.

It wouldn't be that easy, he thought to himself.

"Mr. Godfrey, you look rather unhappy." Xavier's voice was full of contempt.

Wilson turned around, and the dark expression on his face disappeared.

"Why are you here?"

"Of course I'm here to visit my dear father. I'm curious to know how you're feeling about your eldest son starting his own company." Xavier sounded like he was paying his deceased father a visit. It made Wilson feel really irritated.

Despite this, he was already used to his son's attitude. It would be actually suspicious if his son suddenly treated him nicely one day.

"You've known about this for a long time, haven't you?" Wilson questioned in a cold voice.

Xavier sneered, with sarcasm in his eyes. "How would I know something that you don't even know about?"

"Are you sure? Hmph, you two brothers played this whole trick together, and now you're pretending like you don't know anything? Xavier, are you really fine with it?"

Xavier was a person who wouldn't allow others to deceive him. Although Theodore was more suitable to be in charge of the Godfrey family, Xavier was the only one who shared a similar personality with his father.

Hey there! Just a friendly reminder that if you're not reading this book on nel5s.org, you might be missing out on the complete story. Head over there to dive into the next chapter-it's all free!

Xavier glanced at him coldly.

"If I can tolerate you, what else can I not tolerate? You care about the Godfrey family, but in my eyes, it's completely worthless."

"You... Hmph! Are you sure you had no idea that Theodore let Yvonne argue and kick up fusses for the whole year because he was already planning to leave the family? You clearly knew everything, and yet you're now trying to cover up for him. You two are really good at acting!" Wilson exclaimed furiously. He only understood everything when Xavier came in.

Otherwise, according to Theodore's personality, how would he allow Yvonne take advantage of him?

Now that he had the shares of the Godfrey family, not only could they take advantage of it, but he could also establish his own company.

Wilson had really underestimated the person he had chosen.

He played a good trick.

While he was still arguing with Yvonne, he had given Theodore a great opportunity.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became.

As Xavier saw his expression, he sneered and said, "Does it even matter now? You have fallen into his hands too, Mr. Godfrey."

"Get out of here, right now!" Wilson roared. His eyes were filled with anger, and he didn't even try to control it.

It was the first time Xavier had seen him being so angry, but he was delighted to see it. It was solid proof that Wilson couldn't control everything.

Xavier then turned his wheelchair around and left the room.

"I'll get lost then." Theodore wasn't the only one who felt good that day. Xavier was overjoyed as well.

After he left, Wilson started smashing things in his room, and Xavier could hear it clearly outside the room.

"Mr. Godfrey." The bodyguard following behind Xavier stepped forward and called out.

He looked at him and smiled. His smile was simple. It wasn't as sophisticated as before. It was just a pure smile.

"James, give Theodore a call and tell him that I'll be waiting at the restaurant nearby."

Hey there! Just a friendly reminder that if you're not reading this book on nel5s.org, you might be missing out on the complete story. Head over there to dive into the next chapter-it's all free! James was startled for a while when he saw that smile. He then responded, "Sure, I'll do it right away."

Theodore was setting up his company. He wasn't surprised at all to receive Xavier's call saying that he wanted to meet him.

He arrived at the restaurant at noon. Xavier had been waiting for a long time.

"You're very busy, huh?"

Theodore sat down and said indifferently, "My company was just listed. Of course I'll be very busy."

Xavier's eyes flashed, but he didn't say anything.

The two of them ate lunch quietly. There wasn't any sound other than the sound of silverware scraping against the plates.

After they finished eating, Xavier asked, "Are you really leaving the Godfrey family?"

"Yes, I'll leave the company to you. You can do anything you want as long as you don't ruin it," Theodore answered in a cold voice.

"Didn't you say that it doesn't matter even if it's destroyed?"

"Grandma put in a lot of effort. If you really don't care, just destroy it then," Theodore responded.

Xavier was speechless.

He really couldn't disrespect his grandmother.

Otherwise, he would have destroyed it a long time ago.

After lunch, Theodore was about to leave. Xavier sat in his chair and said without even looking at him, "Since when did you start planning all of this?"

"Do you really want to know? Or did Wilson ask about it?" Theodore stopped and asked without looking back.

"Both."

"From the moment I found out the truth." Theodore didn't hide anything and answered him directly.
