Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Chapter 222 Leon? Cecil's words stunned Everleigh.

"I've asked Christopher before. You're going to sacrifice yourself to investigate what happened seven years ago, aren't you?" Her words made it very clear that she knew everything.

Thus, Everleigh was speechless.

Cecil was furious when Everleigh did not speak. "Everleigh Trevino, you're playing with fire. Do you think you can win against Theodore and those sly old foxes in the Godfrey family?" "I'm not thinking of winning. I just want to find out what happened that year. I want to know who did this to me." "We can help you check it out. Why do you have to use this method?" "It's too slow. I don't have that much time." Everleigh looked serious. "Alastair and Adrienne are getting older. If we don't find out what happened that year, I'm afraid that things will becmore difficult for us." She could disregard herself, but she needed to think about her children.

"I won't forgive anyone who tries to hurt Alastair and Adrienne." Cecil frowned as she spoke. "Christopher and I are still here with you, so do you think we can't protect two children?" Everleigh sucked in a deep breath and was silent for a long tbefore she said, "Cecil, I know you mean well, but I can't wait around for this to be settled. I don't want to be living on edge every day." "On edge every day?" "Cwith me. I'll show you something." Everleigh took Cecil upstairs into her bedroom, opened the safe beside the bed in front of her, and took out a sealed "letter" from it.

"What is this?" "Open it and take a look." Everleigh handed it directly to her and sat down beside the bed.

Cecil opened the envelope and pulled out the things inside. After staring at it for a while, her expression suddenly froze, and she asked, "When did this happen?" Everleigh raised her chin to the envelope and looked as calm as a pool of still water. "There is a date of delivery on it." Cecil turned over the envelope and saw the date of the letter on it. Judging by the date, Everleigh had received it two years ago.

"Two years ago? Who sent this to you? Why didn't I hear about it from you?" The series of questions seemed to echo inside the bedroom and Everleigh seemed to have expected this reaction from Cecil. Thus, she calmly sat by the bed and reached for the brown envelope. "That time, you were studying in Europe." "What about Christopher? Does he know?" "Yes." Everleigh nodded. "He received the letter for me. He felt something was wrong as soon as he saw that it was a domestic letter. I opened the letter in front of him and he found out on that day." "He didn't mention it toeither?" "Have you forgotten? At that time, you were still angry with him because of Diana." Cecil was rendered speechless by that reply.

There was a period of twhen she and Christopher didn't get along well with each other. That was because of her sister Diana, and she'd even grown distant from Everleigh for over a year following that incident. "Everleigh, if I knew this, I would have cback to keep you company." "It's okay." Everleigh took Cecil's hand, and her eyes were surprisingly calm. "It's tto face the music. This is why I chome, and I can't just run from it for the rest of my life." Cecil's expression soured at the thought of what was inside the envelope.

After a while, she took Everleigh's hand and sat down beside the bed. "I don't understand. Didn't you and Christopher say that the person behind the scenes was Madison seven years ago? She wanted nothing more than for you not to return, so why did she send you these things?" "Perhaps it's a warning." Everleigh's face darkened a little.

"Perhaps the sender isn't her." "Then, who else could it be?" Everleigh frowned and looked at Cecil in surprise.

In fact, Cecil's words were also reasonable. Madison was one of the people who didn't want her to return and her purpose was very clear. Madison didn't want Theodore to see Everleigh again. However, sending this to her was undoubtedly going to dig up all the things that happened seven years ago, which was contrary to her original intention. It didn't make any sense.

"I don't know." Cecil sat down beside the bed, looking serious, and her eyes fell on the envelope in Everleigh's hand. "But I always feel that this may not be as simple as we thought." Everleigh's brow furrowed even more deeply. "How complicated can it be? I'm just an ordinary person. The worst result of scheming againstis nothing more than for the Trevino family's benefit. Who would set up such a big trap for the sake of the little benefit in me?" If it hadn't happened to her, she wouldn't have imagined that someone would try so hard to plot against her. Therefore, she hadn't thought about anything else since she received the letter two years ago.

Truth be told, Cecil couldn't think of any other reason.

"I guess it's probably Madison. She wanted to warn you not to return, so she sent this letter. I guess she didn't expect that it would turn out to be a mistake, and the letter was precisely the reason you returned." Everleigh nodded and said, "So you're not angry with me, are you?" "Why should I be angry with you?" Cecil turned her face away as if she didn't want to admit it.

Everleigh smiled at her and said, "Then you're not leaving?" Speaking of this, Cecil suddenly thought of something. She raised her wrist and looked at the ton her watch. "Sh*t, I'm going to miss my flight!" "Plane? What plane? Where are you going?" Planning your weekend reading? Ensure you're on 000005sfor uninterrupted enjoyment.

"So, you weren't going to leave with your luggage earlier, you..." "I didn't say that I was leaving. You were the one who thought too much about it." Cecil raised her eyebrows at her and walked away in a very casual manner.

Everleigh stood in place for a while and cback to her senses after a sigh of relief. Then, she chased after Cecil. "Wait a minute, I will take you to the airport."

Then, Everleigh left in a hurry. The door of the safe was not closed properly and a corner of the envelope peeked out. Under the light, a vague image appeared in the corner which could be easily missed if one did not look properly. Plus, the image looked a lot like the word "Wan" in Buddhist imagery. On the way to the airport, Everleigh heard Cecil's cell phone constantly vibrating.

"Why aren't you answering the phone?" She glanced at the passenger seat.

Cecil turned over the phone on her knee with an expressionless face. "If it's not telemarketers, then it's real estate loan agents. Would I even borrow from them?" "An ordinary loan agency wouldn't even try to approach you," Everleigh smiled and said, "But there are always a few people who are not afraid of death..." Then, Cecil gave her a strange look but said nothing.

It was difficult to find a parking spot at the gate at the airport, and Cecil her was in a hurry to catch herplane! After she took her luggage, she quickly made her way to the departure hall as she waved at Everleigh. Everleigh was about to start the car, but out of the corner of her eyes, she glanced out of the window and saw a sneaky figure following Cecil into the departure hall.

She frowned and immediately squinted to look into the distance.

Leon?
