Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

After lunch, Everleigh took the kids back to school. Adrienne and Alastair brought a lot of delicious food as they wanted to share them with their classmates. She watched them go in and drove home.

When she arrived home, she received a call from Benedict.

"Mr. Lawson, is there any news?"

"Yes. Would you like to come over and have a look?" He said in a calm tone.

Hearing this, her heart skipped a beat. An uneasy feeling welled up in her heart. "Mr. Lawson, who is it?"

He was silent for a moment. "The person is... Stainley."

At that moment, Everleigh's mind buzzed and her brain went blank. How could it be him?

No matter how far he went, he would not be able to do such a thing.

"Are you sure?" She asked in a trembling voice.

Benedict also couldn't believe that it was Stainley who did it. He was transferred to this hospital from abroad. There was no reason for him to do such a thing. "Do you want to come over and have a look?"

"Okay," she said solemnly. Whether it was him or not, she wanted to go and take a look herself.

Everleigh took a taxi to the hospital. Her heart was in a mess at that moment. If she drove, there might be an accident, thus it was better for her to take a taxi. Along the way, she watched the scenery through the window with a heavy expression, thinking about what she should do if it was really Stainley who did it. "Miss, we are here." The driver kindly reminded her after the car stopped for a long time, and he did not see her getting out of the car.

She was pulled back from her thoughts and quickly paid the driver. "Thank you."

"Young lady, always think on the bright side." The driver looked at her sympathetically.

She stood at the car door, was in a daze for a moment, and finally reacted. She thought if she came to the hospital, would something happen back at home?

She really was a bit lost and helpless as she looked at the taxi driver.

When she arrived, Benedict was alone in his office.

"Mr. Lawson."

"Have a seat and look at the documents on the table." His tone was cold and complicated emotions seemed to welled up in his eyes.

She did not hesitate and took a look at the documents on the table. Indeed, Stainley was the only one who had entered the ward.

Her face was extremely pale and her clear eyes dimmed. She had never thought that it would turn out to be like this.

"I didn't tell anyone about this. What are you going to do?" He poured her a glass of water and looked at her with solemn eyes.

She took a sip of the water. "Mr. Lawson, what are you planning to do?"

"To be frank, if it wasn't for the fact that you guys think he's useful, I would've called the police and expelled him. However, Theodore and you are the victims who suffered the most in this matter, thus I can't decide." "Mr. Lawson, thank you for your consideration. If you really did it, Stainley's medical career would've come to an end."

He understood the meaning behind her words and frowned. "Do you trust him?"

"Yes, I believe that he won't do such a thing. There must be some other reasons," she said in a firm tone.

She only came up with this idea when she was reading the documents. It could be anyone, but it could never be Stainley.

Although she was the one who rejected him, this would never be the reason for him to do such a thing.

"Why not?"

"Mr. Lawson, I knew him earlier than you did. I admit that there is some estrangement between us, but it is not enough for him to turn out like this. I think we should investigate it thoroughly." Everleigh stared at him firmly. She was willing to believe in Stainley this time.

Seeing that she was so determined, Benedict didn't say anything more but sighed softly. "It's up to you."

She left with the documents in her hand, looking much more relaxed. She believed that Stainley was not such a cruel person.

The next day, the press conference took place officially at Mortly Hotel. A lot of journalists came over, mainly because this matter had been making the headlines and there were a lot more speculations.

Everyone felt that Theodore wouldn't show up this time and thought that he wanted to shirk responsibility. Everyone came over for the sake of the first-hand information.

They wanted to know if he would show up or not.

At this moment, he was sitting on the sofa on the second floor, staring at the people on the monitor. His eyes were deep as he looked at the people who came.

Moses pushed the door open and came in. "Mr. Godfrey, most of them are here."

"Did you get hold of Joycelyn?"

"Yes, it's a good thing that we arrived in time, otherwise..." Thinking of the scene the previous night, Moses' heart was beating with fear.

Joycelyn was so close to death.

Theodore's eyes flickered and didn't speak.

"How much time left?" He asked suddenly.

"Ten minutes."

He pursed his lips and remained silent.

Moses' phone rang, which sounded particularly eerie as it echoed in the spacious room.

"Hello."

...

"When did it happen?"

"Got it." Moses hung up the phone, turned around, looked at Theodore and said, "Mr. Godfrey, there's a message from the hospital saying that Sandom killed himself." "Mm," Theodore replied in a cold tone.

Moses' eyes widened. Sandom was an important person in this matter. Now that he was dead, how could he still be so calm?

"What are you up to, Mr. Godfrey?"

Theodore's eyes were calm. He wasn't surprised. When Sandom told him the whole thing, he knew that it wouldn't be easy for him to get off the hook.

Instead of living a dark life in prison, it was better to ask for a quick death.

That way, his mother wouldn't be ashamed too.

Ten minutes passed by quickly. Theodore put on his suit, tidied up his clothes and strode out.

The moment the door to the hall opened, his cold expression was reflected in everyone's eyes.

The cameras were flashing, taking pictures of him one after another.

He calmly walked to the center of the table with a microphone placed on it. "I'm holding a press conference today to explain the sudden incident regarding the new medicine previously."

"I heard that the mother of the volunteer died because of a heart attack. Is this true?"

"Someone said that you forced the old woman to death. Is there anything you would like to say regarding this statement?"

Facing the questions from the two reporters, Theodore's eyes lowered, but he didn't seem to be angry. He knew that he couldn't hide the news of the old woman's death.

He didn't want to hide it either. Once he made efforts to hide it, he would feel guilty.

"I will explain the death of the old woman later. What I want to tell everyone is about the volunteer. His physical conditions were exceptional, thus he did not get an allergic reaction from the medication. Someone added drugs to his medication on purpose and caused such symptoms. This person is Joycelyn Trevino, an employee from my company."

Theodore's words caused a commotion among the crowd. The others didn't believe in what he said.

He gave Moses a look and Joycelyn was brought up by his men.

She lowered her head as she was not used to the flash.

She was utterly ashamed this time.
