Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Chapter 102 Only You Can Save Christopher Everleigh stayed by Christopher's side and was introduced by Vanessa to all the guests at the banquet.

Vanessa was obviously extremely fond of Everleigh, showering her with nothing but praises and compliments. Everyone could hear that the Meyer family attached great importance to their daughter-in-law.

Mrs. Meyer's face was full of pride. She held up a glass of champagne and toasted everyone. "Thank you for taking your precious tto attend this banquet. I'm already an old woman; what's there to do at a birthday banquet? I just want to take this opportunity to introduce Everleigh to everyone. When the wedding date is set, I'll definitely invite all of you to the wedding!" Her words warned everyone present to never dare look down on Everleigh.

The crowd started to throw questions. "Why did Christopher get married without a word?" "Yeah, you've hidden your son well, Mrs. Meyer." "They were studying abroad all this while, thus they didn't have tto hold a wedding ceremony. We were afraid of gossiping if we disclosed it too soon; they might think that the Meyer family does not value their daughter-in-law." "She's Christopher's classmate, thus Everleigh is also a doctor?" "Yes, she had returned to Ocpeace City to work now." The people who attended the Meyer family's banquet knew that they had a youngest son. Although he was a good-for-nothing, studying medicine even though he could inherit his family business, proving himself inferior to his two elder sisters, no one dared to look down on him.

Traditionally, the inheritance of a family still relied on a son. Therefore, most of them believed that despite the current situation, Christopher would definitely inherit Meyer Group in the future.

After rounds of greetings, Everleigh had drunk a lot of wine.

"Are you okay?" After three rounds of wine, Christopher helped her to the side to rest. "If you are a lightweight, don't force yourself to drink. Why did you drink for every random person who cto toast?" Hearing this, Everleigh rolled her eyes at him. "The people who toastedjust now were all your uncles and relatives. Are they considered random people?" "I'm just casually saying. Why are you exaggerating? Are you perhaps possessed by Felicia?" Christopher sat her down on the sofa in the rest area. "Sit down and have a rest. Drink swater." "I'm fine," Everleigh leaned back on the sofa, and Christopher sat down as well. The two of them stared at the lively banquet in the distant side by side. With Felicia's support, they actually did not need to do anything.

For everyone in the world, there was a destined person in their lives. No matter how crowded it was, one could always see that person at a glance as if they had telepathy. Even when that person was looking from behind, one could feel it. They were far away from each other, but the moment their eyes met, they quickly turned away.

Everleigh frowned and lowered her head to take a sip of hot water, as if she did not see anything.

"Stop pretending," said Christopher as he crossed his legs and peeled orange in his hand. However, his eyes were fixed on the couple in the distance. "I'm sure you're feeling disgusted seeing both of them in pairs?" "No." Everleigh pursed her lips.

"Why did you reply so decisively?" Everleigh's eyes were a little cold. Instead of answering Christopher's question, she asked, "What happened between you and Josephine just now?" "I don't like seeing beautiful women alone. I just went to chat with her for a while," Christopher shrugged. "Would Felicia have such a big reaction at you chatting with her for a while?" Thinking of the situation when she was suddenly pulled out by Vanessa in the lounge, Everleigh rolled her eyes.

Only a serious situation could let Vanessa, who had experienced many hardships for half of her life, show such a panicked expression, nagging, "Everleigh, only you can save Christopher!" Although Christopher was the only son of the Meyer family, his status in the family was really worrying. Compared with his two sisters, he was nothing. Obviously, the elders of the Meyer family loved their daughters biasedly. Even if his sisters beat him up, they had never done anything about it.

Christopher once said that when he was a child, he stole an eraser from Felicia and she beat him up for three days. His position as a sandbag continued until he went to college and even becworse.

In this regard, Everleigh did not feel any sympathy for him. She only thought that he deserved it.

Since Christopher's first relationship started, Felicia had helped him settle countless of his playboy incidents. Many girls cto the Meyer family while crying, and his parents almost had a heart attack out of anger. Christopher's unreliable relationships caused a severe headache for the entire Meyer family. This also caused Everleigh's arrival to be enthusiastically welcomed by the Meyer family.

It was the Meyer family's greatest expectation for Christopher, a playboy who always made his parents and sisters worry about him, to marry a girl earnestly. Besides, Everleigh much exceeded their expectations. Christopher's lips curled, "I really didn't do anything. I just chatted with her for a while. But when she heard that I'm the son of the Meyer family, her eyes lit up. So, I don't think she's as loyal to Theodore as you think." "This has nothing to do with me." "Seriously, if you want to get back together with Theodore, I'm confident that I'll be able to break the two of them apart and ruin their upcoming wedding ceremony." "Don't talk nonsense," Everleigh frowned. "I have nothing to do with their marriage. After I find out what happened in the past, I will go back to Maniville for work."

Seeing Everleigh's firm expression, Christopher stopped beating around the bush to test her. "It's good to return to Maniville. Working is not as hard there compared to here. At least you would have tto take care of the children." "By the way, "COTTY Ӧ Christopher raised his wrist, and a valuable watch appeared under his sleeves, showing the thalf-past eight. "It's still early. If you are tired, you can go and have a rest first. I'll ask the staff to book a room for you." Everleigh was newly introduced by Mrs. Meyer to everyone. At this time, many people in the banquet hall were staring at her, and countless gazes were secretly watching her. It would be rude if she left ahead of schedule, but she was really a little drunk, especially when Christopher mentioned Theodore's wedding. "Okay." She reluctantly pulled the corners of her mouth, but found that she couldn't force out a smile. After trying for several seconds, she gave up. "Thank you."

At that moment, on the other side of the hall, Josephine took a glass of wine from the staff. While Theodore was not paying attention, she clicked open the ring on her finger and poured out a white, powder-like substance. It fell down and quickly melted into the wine glass. "Theodore, I brought you another glass of wine." "Mm," Theodore was still expressionless. After receiving the wine, he didn't say anything. Then, he lifted the glass and gulped it down with his head raised.

Theodore drank quite a lot of wine, but in contrast to his usual self, he did not reject anyone who cto toast him. He was already starting to feel a little drunk. "Theodore, are you alright?" Josephine asked. Theodore's long fingers loosened the knot of his necktie. For sreason, he felt his body burning, but his face remained calm. "Yes." "Should I take you out for a break?"
