Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Chapter 116 Her Children Have Nothing To Do With You Christopher's aloof "no" caused tension between both men.

They were very different, but both could turn heads when they walked on the street.

Christopher was an approachable and gentle doctor. Many fell for his alluring eyes. Theodore was distant and icy and his dark eyes were filled with the charm of a mature man. Women were most attracted to men with a back story. Right then, Everleigh was caught in between. She frowned slightly and subconsciously moved half a step towards Christopher.

Christopher and Everleigh had known each other for years. Christopher cback mostly for her sake. He protected her as if she was family and she knew this better than anyone else. The only thing she could do was not let him down. "What's the matter? Just give it tostraight. Christopher can listen to whatever I'm listening to." There was nothing more deadly than what she said - telling her old flthat she trusted her new love fully. Theodore's face had no response but the veins on his neck were bulging. He remained silent for a long tbefore closing the door behind him.

"Okay, if he wants to listen, let him listen. Everleigh, I want you to tellthe truth." A period of thad passed since the Meyer family's banquet, but he had all the information from Moses' investigation in his mind. For the first time, he hated how good his memory was as he remembered every word and punctuation clearly. Everleigh asked in reply, "What truth?" Even though Christopher was still sitting on the chair next to him with no intention of leaving, Theodore couldn't be bothered. There were sthings that he had to ask.

"Did you suddenly go overseas to study seven years ago because you were pregnant?" "Yes," Everleigh admitted.

This wasn't the first tTheodore asked her this question. She had to face the truth from the past and the truth had everything to do with Theodore. Hence, she did not need to hide anything from him.

The reality was, if she knew the incident that night was related to the Godfrey family before she went abroad seven years ago, she wouldn't have chosen to hide it from Theodore.

However, things were different. At this point, Theodore was no longer going through everything with her. He was already someone else's fiancé and that woman was the one who harmed her at that time. Theodore expected this response, but when Everleigh confirmed it, he secretly clenched his fists. "Who is the father of the child?" This was the root of the problem.

Theodore was bothered by whether Everleigh cheated on him for so many years. If she cheated on him, who did she cheat on him with? During the five years of their relationship, even when they were not in the sdepartment, they were inseparable except for class. Hence, he never believed it when Everleigh said it was Stanley.

"It's my business and has nothing to do with you." Everleigh looked him straight in the eye. That look could make someone angry. "It's a personal matter. Whether for the sake of my children or my husband's family, I can't tell you." The words "my husband" were like steel nails, fiercely stabbing into Theodore's eardrums. It was as if the nails were penetrating his heart through his ears.

Everleigh asked as she saw how silent Theodore was, "Are you done with your questions? If you're done, I still have matters to attend to." As she spoke, she grabbed Christopher's arm. His wound had not been tended to fully, and the waterproof bandaid wasn't put on properly. Hence, Everleigh had to take it off and reapply it. "That's enough. It's fine," Christopher said, looking as if he did not care.

Everleigh patted him on his wrist and said, "What do you mean enough? Shouldn't you know better as a doctor? Don't move. It will be done soon." The interaction between them was so natural as if they did not realize another person was next to them. Theodore's brows twitched violently at what he saw. He realized how preposterous it was of him to suddenly chere.

When he was about to leave, a nurse cto call Everleigh, saying that there was a patient she needed to see. "Go," Christopher said while waving his hand. "I'll be right here." Everleigh frowned and glanced at Theodore from the corner of her eye. In the end, she didn't say anything. Instead, she walked straight past Theodore as if he was not there. With a 'click', the office door closed. Theodore and Christopher were left in the room.

There was tension the moment Theodore walked in through the door. Right then, as Everleigh left, it was as if there was a flash of lightning and the atmosphere was heated. "Mr. Godfrey, did you cjust to ask these two questions?" Christopher gave Theodore a side glance. His smirk carried a hint of arrogance and sarcasm.

"Or do you have anything else to ask?" Theodore's expression becextremely indifferent at that contemptuous tone.

His fist clenched again as he stared at Christopher. "Mr. Meyer, you seem to trust your wife very much. You're also very protective of her, not even willing to leave. What are you worrying about?" "Shouldn't I worry for her? I still remember what you did to my wife at my mother's birthday banquet." Theodore was drugged that time, but Christopher didn't mention anything about drugs. He only mentioned what he did, which was the truth. Fortunately, he arrived early enough and didn't cause too big of trouble.

Theodore still wanted to say something but he kept his mouth m shut. His thin lips moved as he changed the subject. "What happened that day was a misunderstanding. I'll find a day and send my apologies over."

"What about today?" Christopher did not think it was a big deal but insisted on asking, "Mr. Godfrey you chere put of nowhere and you seemed to be in a rush. All you only asked was about the past. It was really unnecessary, don't you think?" He didn't say it in a heavy tone, but he was aggressive.

"The past?" Theodore asked back with a cold piercing look in his eyes.

"Isn't it?" Christopher's lips curled slightly and a faint smile appeared on his face. Even though he was only 30 years old, he looked very young. However, his tone was sarcastic. "It's been seven years, and the matter was buried a long tago. However, you're still thinking about it." Theodore had never been criticized like this before. Based on how he grew up and his current lifestyle, he was the apple of everyone's eye. This was the first time, but he wasn't angry one bit.

In this world, no one could faze him except Everleigh.

Right then, he calmly glanced at the desk. There were two bowls of instant noodles covered by notebooks. It was Christopher and Everleigh's lunch.

Theodore's eyes flashed. As calm as ever, he said, "As far as I know, she didn't know you before she went abroad." "So?" "So her children have nothing to do with you."
