Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Chapter 696 Hope Everleigh stopped and turned around to look at him. "What's the matter?" "Is there a reason why you don't want to see Uncle Luqman?" "Uncle Luqman is the sas Uncle Yeezoo. The only difference is that he doesn't say it out loud. Alexander, when I joined the Jenkins family, I really thought of myself as a member of the family. I don't mean anything else, but they don't think the same. Now, I'm told to help someone who doesn't appreciate it. I can't do it." Everleigh spoke softly, but Alexander could hear the disappointment in her voice.

He was not trying to force her. He could feel that she had her own difficulties as well.

"I understand. The way the members of the Jenkins family treated you is unacceptable." "It's good that you understand, Alexander. I can only say that Uncle Luqman got what he deserved." Everleigh had already asked Theodore to investigate the matter. The reason why he was lying in the hospital at that moment was because he was caught with another woman.

Now, he was too embarrassed to meet anyone, but he wanted people to go visit him. What nonsense was this? A man like him was not worthy of any pity.

Alexander also sighed. "Perhaps you are right. It's just that my father is concerned about it." "It's fine to be concerned, but Uncle Luqman has to appreciate it. I know what he's thinking. He's just too embarrassed to chome, which was why he lied that he was sick. Uncle Saniogo wantsto take a look at him just to confirm his condition." How could she not understand her uncle's thoughts? However, she did not want to see Luqman.

Alexander was surprised. It turned out that she had known everything.

No wonder she was so domineering earlier.

"Alexander, tell your father that there's no need to go see him. He will only feel like he's an important person if you do so. I know that Uncle Saniogo is concerned, but he has to be rational about this." After saying this, she walked out.

He did not stop her. Whatever she had just said made sense.

It seemed that he should talk to his father.

Everleigh returned to the Trevino family and went straight to rest. Alastair entered her room.

"Mommy, let's have a chat." "Alright, clie down beside me." Everleigh patted the empty spot on the bed beside her.

He walked over and laid down beside her.

"Mommy, are you unhappy?" "Yes, I am unhappy. Something happened to my good friend. I don't know where he is now." She was in a bad mood because of Elvir's incident. Although they had not known each other for a long time, she was very grateful to him.

Everyone was well aware of how he had treated the Jenkins family for so many years. He had persisted all this while just because of a promise he had made back then.

However, now, he was missing because of her.

How could she feel good about this? She had not done anything wrong, but she felt like she had let Elvir down. "Mommy, don't worry. He'll be fine," Alastair said seriously.

"I hope he is fine. I hope he will cback to look for me," Everleigh said in a heavy tone.

He opened his mouth but did not know how to comfort her, so he just kept quiet.

These days, he could see that his mother was absent-minded. He was worried, which was why he cto see her.

"By the way, I heard from Leon. You have an opinion about the company, right?" He nodded and said, "Yes. Uncle Leon taughtthat it's best to cut my losses early. We can't wait until it's too late and regret it after." She did not know much about doing business, but she knew her son well. What he said must be true.

After all, Alastair was a smart child.

A few days later, there was news from abroad that a body was found in the river. However, the body had been in the water for so long that it was barely recognizable.

The news blew Everleigh's mind.

Initially, she felt that there was still hope because the body had not been found. Now, did it not mean that she had lost all hope? Theodore's first reaction was to look for Everleigh. He was worried that something might happen to her.

In the hospital, she sat on the chair lifelessly. Christopher and Erine were both there, but neither of them spoke at this time.

"Everleigh." "Theodore, let's go abroad. Let's see if that person is Elvir." When Everleigh saw him, she held onto him tightly as if he were her lifeline.

He could not bear to see her like this. "Everleigh, don't rush it. I've already sent someone to confirm it. It's not uncommon for people abroad to jump into the river so it might not be him. Furthermore, you can't leave now. Have you forgotten? There are people watching you." Everleigh's expression stiffened. She had forgotten that Missha was still around. All this while, she thought that her aunt had cback because she wanted to be reunited with her family. Now, it seemed that that was not the case at all. She was here to keep an eye on her, "Everleigh, you're usually very calm. Why are you so impulsive this time?" "That's because I'm guilty. Christopher, I haven't done anything wrong in my life, but now I've realized what it means to do something wrong," she responded softly.

Theodore hugged her. "It'll be fine. I've already sent someone to confirm it, but the news is that it doesn't look like Elvir. The height and physique did not match him." Her expression froze for a moment. Her dull eyes lit up with hope in an instant. "Are you serious?" "Yes." He nodded. Deep down in his heart, he was praying that all of this was real.

She believed what he said because she knew that Theodore would not lie to her.

However, in the evening, Saniogo cto pick her up. Everleigh was a little surprised that he was here.

"Uncle, why are you here?" "Alexander went to pick Cecil up. Since I had nothing else to do, I chere to take a walk. Get in the car." As he spoke, he opened the car door for her.

Everleigh did not hesitate to get in the car.

In the car, he mentioned Elvir all of a sudden.

"Elvir's body had been found.” When Everleigh heard this, she was shocked. She felt as if she had been struck by lightning.

Didn't Theodore just tell her that it was not him? Why...

"Uncle, what do you mean?"

"All we can do is to give him a proper burial." When Saniogo said 1% d this, he was heartbroken as well. He had never thought of a day where he would have to bury Elvir. Tears welled up in Everleigh's eyes, but she still could not believe that he was really dead.

"Uncle, it's all my fault. If I hadn't let Swould him go abroad, this would not have happened." She burst into tears, as if only in this way could she relieve the guilt in her heart. His eyes reddened as well. His old face looked haggard. He did not believe this as well, but the information he received confirmed that it was real.

"Uncle, didn't you say that Elvir is close to us? Why did Aunt Missha say such a thing?"

"She was just doing things according to the rules. I've already asked her.

om She's not abroad. Things were done by the people abroad. When she heard about it, it was already too late," he said softly. However, his words sounded different in Everleigh's mind.
