Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Chapter 291 Met Under Such Conditions Seeing Adrienne sleeping so soundly, Theodore couldn't bear to wake her from her sleep. "I'll carry her out," he said. Everleigh hesitated for a moment, but nodded.

The four of them reached the parking lot. Theodore then placed Adrienne on the booster seat. Everleigh said "thank you" to him, got in the car and left.

He stood behind and watched the car slowly disappearing from his sight. At that moment, it was as if something was gradually disappearing into his heart as well.

For the first time, he felt anxious. Seven years ago, it was anger that he felt most, but now, he suddenly realized that he would be losing everything completely.

If you loved someone and had feelings for them, you would feel their existence even if they were at the ends of the earth; but if you didn't love them, you wouldn't be bothered even if they were right in front of you. He was terrified by such a feeling.

Inside Everleigh's car, Alastair, who sat at the back, said, "He said he still likes you." "Yeah, I know." "What do you think?" He looked out of the window. The stillness on his face and his age just did not seem to match.

Looking at his "little adult" demeanor, Everleigh couldn't help laughing. In fact, she also didn't know what to do. It was a love-hate relationship between the two.

"Do you have him in your heart?" "Are you worried?" "I don't care. I just feel that you shouldn't be looking for someone who doesn't love you," he wanted to reject Theodore, but after a slight change of thought, he switched the conversation topic.

In Alastair's heart, he rejected Theodore because he didn't treat Everleigh well. In fact, it could even be said that he held a grudge against him.

"I'm also confused. Let's not talk about this for the tbeing, okay?" Everleigh said softly; it was not difficult to sense the agitation in her tone.

She had always been avoiding this question. She thought it would all be enough as long as she could uncover the truth from seven years ago, but now that the truth is out, what good has it done? Could the both of them pick up from where they had left off? Due to this, both Theodore and Everleigh didn't sleep well. The main reason was that they didn't know which stage would be considered best for their relationship.

In the morning, when Everleigh got up, Selena was already sitting in the dining room. Seeing her smiling, Everleigh couldn't help but ask.

"Happy because you got a new script?" "Leon Allen said he would like Theodore to invest in a television series, and he wantsas the main character," she revealed, with no intention of hiding this, feeling rather pleased with herself.

Hearing the n"Leon Allen" made Everleigh feel worse, for she knew very well what kind of man he was. "Stay away from him. You mentioned that Christopher is one attractive playboy. Isn't Leon the same?" With a piece of toast in her hand, Selena froze and stared at Everleigh with displeasure, "You just can't bear to seewell-off, can you?" "Well, if you don't believe me, you can go ask around. What did Leon do to make himself 'unforgettable' back at the Godfrey family's banquet," Everleigh said, unbothered by Selena's displeasure. She continued eating her toast. Speaking of the truth.

Something cinto Selena's mind when she heard "the Godfrey family's banquet".

Everleigh had decided that she would not say anything further. Whatever went on in Selena's mind was none of her business, but Leon was someone whom Cecil rejected. Hence, he and Selena would not be a good match at all, let alone be happy together.

The long awaited holiday had finally arrived. Cecil called to ask Everleigh out, but her voice didn't sound joyful. She didn't turn her down and decided to go shopping with her. Whenever Cecil seemed down, she would do things half-heartedly.

"What's with the sudden hang out invitation? Did something happen?" "Do you know why I cback?" Cecil sat on a chair, with one hand stirring a glass of juice. Her eyes were fixed on the passers-by. Everleigh shook her head. How would she know? "I'm back because of an arranged marriage for me, but please, how old am I? Is it still necessary to get engaged now? And that includes having the wedding as well. My brother is even more ridiculous. He purposely cback to forceon a blind date. I guess I'll go crazy if we hadn't met today," Cecil complained; her delicate face contained traces of suppressed anger.

Hearing Cecil saying "How old am I?", Everleigh really wanted to let her know that she herself was no longer young; she even had two children.

Cecil hasn't ceased talking; it was as if she was talking the hind legs off a donkey, with her never-ending yapping.

At first, Everleigh listened with great interest, but towards the end, she only looked at her blankly, feeling that her mouth was getting a little dry. "Why are you so quiet?" "I'm just listening to what you're saying." "Then you say something for a change, I..." Before Cecil could finish her sentence, her eyes widened as she looked straight to the front.

Seeing her behaving in this way, a curious Everleigh took a look for herself. She saw a man in a military uniform walking over. His skin was tanned, his sharp eyebrows were thick and black, and coupled with his sparkling eyes, he was extraordinarily handsome.

A trace of surprise flashed across her eyes. Very silently and carefully, she asked, "Who's this?" "He is the one I'm supposed to go on a blind date with," a helpless Cecil explained. "Why is he everywhere?" For the past few days, she had been going out all by herself, but it seemed like...

The ability to follow one's trail seemed to have been mastered by him.

"What a coincidence." "You think so?" Cecil asked in return.

Everleigh sat aside and scanned him up and down. This man seemed so much better than Leon. His aura, looks, and body certainly beat Leon hands down.

"Your friend?" Her eyes grew wider as she had been noticed. For a moment she was caught between introducing herself or pretending not to.

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! She felt a little lost.

"Zeldan, this is my friend Everleigh Trevino. Everleigh, this is Zeldan brother's Levin. He is my dipscomrade-in-arms, Cecil i introduced him plainly. After all, she was very much a lady from a respectable family, so displaying good mannerisms was still a must. "Nice to meet you." "Nice to meet you too," Everleigh responded.

Zeldan seated himself on the chair with his back straight. Such an upright and manly posture made Everleigh feel very small.

She felt somewhat embarrassed sitting together with a stranger...

"Had your dinner?" Zeldan asked the two of them.

"No, I haven't." "Yes, I have."

The contradicting answers from both Everleigh and Cecil made things even more awkward. The fact was that Cecil was not any better in such a situation. As much as she was a self-professed, fiery woman, she had to swallow her pride and anger before him. With his gaze fixed on Cecil, Zeldan's bright eyes contained a hint of smile. He signaled a waiter over and placed the orders, with most being Cecil's favorites.

"Hey... Don't order too much. We're not hungry."

"Just before meeting you again, I had it for Miss gone to find out about your likes and dislikes. But for Miss Treviño, Pm really sorry as I don't know what you like. Just order your favorites," Zeldan's explained in his hearty voice as he handed over the menu to her.

Everleigh felt that this man seemed pretty reliable as he knew how to test the waters prior to committing himself.

"No, it's not necessary. Cecil's taste is very similar to mine. I like the things which you have ordered." "Well... Okay," Zeldan didn't press on, for his target wasn't Everleigh.

The scene of these three sitting and eating together seemed pretty harmonious. However, Cecil's face was not the case as it displayed a look of worry. She wasn't enjoying the food either.

"I wish to go to the washroom for a while. You two carry on eating," Cecil said as she got up and headed to the bathroom. The remaining two watched as she disappeared in the direction of the bathroom.
