Said I didn’t Love Him But I Lied

Everleigh couldn’t understand. What had Missha whispered in her ear at that moment? When she just heard her voice, she was greatly triggered.

Dr. Harrison listened to her question and asked directly, “Did you hear something?”

“I did, but I can’t remember what.” She sighed softly. If she had known sooner, she wouldn’t have suffered so much.

Looking at her face, he said helplessly, “Everleigh, some things are just not meant to be rushed. The truth is never absent.”

She glanced meaningfully at her teacher. For a moment, it seemed to her that he knew everything, and she couldn’t hide anything in front of him.

Erine was also very surprised. “Dr. Harrison, what do you know?”

“I don’t know anything, but I can understand from looking at her troubled expression. There are times when the more complicated things are, the more loopholes there are. Just like when we see a patient, there are complicated causes of illnesses, but it is necessary to cure them one by one, is it not?” Maxwell said earnestly.

Everleigh laughed, “Dr. Harrison, it’s a pity you’re not the philosophy teacher.”

“I’m now your teacher, so it’s the same.”

Erine chuckled, “Dr. Harrison, if you didn’t look so serious, I believe we will like you more.”

He turned his head and glanced at her. A person’s words and actions should be in line with their roles. Laughing and joking were not what a professor should do.

“Dr. Harrison, please don’t tell Theodore about this. It won’t happen if I don’t think about it.”

“Alright. If it happens again, be careful.” He didn’t want others to worry about it either.

If Theodore knew this.

Who knew what would happen?

When Theodore came over, he didn’t realize what had happened to her. He was just his usual self.

However, Helen appeared.

When Everleigh looked at her, her eyes suddenly widened. “Grandma.”

“Everleigh.” Helen walked in with a smile on her face.

Everleigh hadn’t seen her in almost two years. Surprisingly, she still made her appearance.

“Grandma, you…”

“Everleigh, I was late. I didn’t expect Wilson to do such a thing. It’s my fault. As a mother, I didn’t raise him right and almost got you killed.” There was a hint of guilt on Helen’s wizened face.

She had been hiding in the shadows to collect evidence of Wilson’s crimes, but it still ended up hurting Everleigh.

“Grandma, in this context you are wrong. Back then, I helped you because I wanted to keep you away from this place. I didn’t expect to make you do so much by yourself. I heard from Theodore that you did a lot of things too. You must have exerted yourself.”

Helen fell silent when she heard these words. She did not know if it was because Everleigh was too understanding or too kind-hearted for her own good.

She could still comfort her after such an incident.

Theodore had been sitting in the corner, not saying a word. After all, he had no idea that Everleigh had arranged this before.

“No, I did not. I’m old too. After staying in Haviden City for so long, it’s enough.” Old as Helen was, there was nothing she couldn’t see through.

She wanted to help her grandson as long as she lived, and that was all there was to it.

“Grandma, don’t say that. I’m very happy that you’re still alive,” Theodore interrupted her.

Except for Xavier, he had no blood relatives left. There was an elder here now.

Thus, he naturally felt at ease.

Everleigh could tell that he was truly glad. She also knew that their relationship was the best.

Helen smiled and thought, “Yes, it’s nice to have a grandchild.”

“Mommy, Daddy.” Adrienne’s voice came from outside the door.

Her voice reached before she came into view.

When the two children came in, they saw Helen and rushed over to say, “Hello, Great-Grandma, when did you come over?”

“I just arrived. Alastair, Adrienne, did you just come back from school?” Helen took the two children in her arms and kissed them, lavishing every last bit of her fondness on the lovable pair.

“Yes, it’s Uncle Xavier who picked us up,” Adrienne said, looking back at the door.

Xavier and Yantsey came in.

When Xavier glanced over at Helen, his eyes wavered with a hint of emotion. Soon, he regained his composure.

“Grandma, I haven’t seen you for a long time. How are you?”

“I’m fine, in fairly good health.” Helen’s attitude towards Xavier was neither cold nor warm.

The main reason was because Xavier had become more gloomy and eccentric because of his leg, and he spoke to anyone in a grim way. Over time, Helen also rarely went to visit him.

Now that they were seeing each other again, it felt like a light-year had passed since their last meeting.

Xavier smiled faintly, then looked at Everleigh. “I didn’t come to see you before because there were some things that needed to be dealt with. Everleigh, would you mind?”

“I most certainly don’t mind. I’m glad you’re here.” She smiled at Theodore. “Prepare some fruits for me, pretty please.”

Theodore didn’t say anything else. He turned around and washed the fruits.

However, this action surprised both Helen and Xavier. In the past, they had never known him to be so obedient.

No one realized that Everleigh had changed his habits, nor did they know when it had started.

When Theodore brought the fruits over, Xavier wasn’t shy to just help himself to some. “Your service is always on a whole nother next level.”

“Mmm, why don’t you eat more then and leave none behind.” Theodore handed him a big apple.

How could he not know what he meant?

Theodore had never served anyone before, but he had always obeyed Everleigh.

However, this did not mean that others could order him around as they pleased.

Xavier was speechless. One didn’t just mess with a man like Theodore.

On the other hand, Missha was still waiting for Wilson’s arrival abroad. The other side had sent a message that the goods had exchanged hands.

Missha smirked. Sure enough, she hadn’t mistaken him; he was the right man for the job.

“Miss Jenkins, should we go and pick him up?”

“Go. His current identity shouldn’t be exposed. If others find out, we’ll be in trouble,” Missha ordered.

The secretary nodded and turned around to take care of the matter.

Missha took a look at her phone and tossed it aside.

That night, Wilson showed up at Missha’s villa. His clothes were ragged and his face was covered in ashes.

“It looks like you have a lot to gain, Mr. Godfrey.”Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

“Do I ever. No wonder Jenkins Group is so powerful abroad. I didn’t think you’d do business this way.” Wilson didn’t know what Missha had done until he got there.

She might look dignified and generous, but he didn’t expect her to be so bold underneath that front.

“That’s how business works. Don’t you know that boldness is the only way to get opportunities? That’s why Godfrey Group won’t overtake Jenkins Group in any way possible.”
