Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Chapter 198 Metaphysical After finishing the soup, Everleigh took out the tissue and slowly wiped the corners of her mouth. When she raised her head, her eyes were calm. She looked at Theodore, who was sitting across from her and said, "I've finished eating. Why didn't you eat anything?" The plate in front of Theodore was still clean. It was just a symbolic gesture when he offered to eat with her; he didn't even drink much water.

"I'm not hungry. I don't eat much either." "You have to eat three meals a day." Thinking of his stomach problems, the doctor in Everleigh cout. She habitually said, "Don't have coffee for breakfast, and just eat oatmeal. You can also have scereal. It's better to have food around you. It's bad to have an empty stomach for a long time. Besides, you have to eat your medicine on time." After talking for a while, Everleigh finally realized that Theodore had been staring at her. She stopped all of a sudden and swallowed her words back. "Umm... Occupational habit." Theodore's expression didn't change. "Mm," he said. "When you treatlike a patient, you becmore natural." Everleigh was stunned for a moment and didn't know how to refute.

This was indeed the case. She treated her patients more naturally than she treated Theodore, and when she treated him as a patient, she felt much more relaxed.

After all, it had been seven years. Even for relatives, if they didn't meet or been in contact with each other for seven years, it would be awkward and strange when they saw each other again. What was more, they were former lovers. If there were no misunderstandings between them, they wouldn't have lost contact.

"Waiter, bill please," Theodore's voice brought her back from her thoughts.

On the way home, the neon lights outside the car windows quickly disappeared, along with the bustling nightlife in Ocpeace City and the fading scenes of the past seven years.

Theodore didn't say a word, and Everleigh didn't know how to break the silence. Several times, when the words were about to cout of her mouth, she swallowed them and gave up.

It didn't matter if it was an awkward silence or embarrassment. Anyway, they would be strangers when she got out of the car at the destination.

From Everleigh's point of view, Theodore's silence probably showed that he had silently agreed to the choice to be strangers. As expected, he had always been a proud and arrogant person.

When they were crossing the bridge, they could see the endless river outside the window. It was so vast that it made one feel small, like a drop of water in the ocean.

Soothing cello music played in the car, but neither could nthe song. However, it inexplicably matched the atmosphere. Music could calm one's heart and relieve everything.

"You don't need to go in. Just park over there." When the car arrived around the neighborhood, Everleigh straightened up and pointed at the intersection ahead. Theodore pulled over to the side.

"Thank you." Everleigh unbuckled her seatbelt and got out of the car with her bag.

"Everleigh." The cold voice reverberated in the car, calling out to her as she opened the car door. She turned around and met Theodore's gaze. It was so deep that she couldn't see through it. Theodore said, "Ordinary friends don't need to say thank you so politely, right?" Everleigh was stunned and looked at the man in astonishment.

"It's getting late. You should go back." When the cold and indifferent words cout, there wasn't a hint of emotion. That pair of eyes rendered Everleigh fearful to take another look, as it would make her feel guilty if she did so. After she cback to her senses, she hurriedly responded, "Okay, drive safe. I'll leave now." After closing the door, Everleigh hurried into the community, not even daring to look back.

Listening to the sound of the engine behind her gradually disappear, she slowed down a little. She had a lot of things on her mind and she was in a complicated mood.

She didn't expect Theodore to give in so easily. He was such a proud person. Even when he left the Godfrey family back then, he didn't lower his head to anyone. He wasn't devoted to anything, and yet he gave in so easily.

Even Everleigh herself didn't believe these words. How could a rational person like Theodore believe them? It was already late at night, and there were fewer pedestrians on the road.

The black car left the residential area and drove out onto the main city street. After the first left turn at the traffic light, it drove onto the city highway.

Under the driver's seat, the leather sole pressed the accelerator harder and harder, and the engine of the car roared. The car quickly sped past the others and in the rearview mirror inside the car, the man's eyes were as cold as frost during the winter.

For a moment, he suddenly wished that Everleigh had not returned.

If she didn't cback, it would feel like there was shope for the future.

Over the past seven years, he almost didn't have any spare time. He worked hard and had a fiancee who was obedient to him. The whole Godfrey Group belonged to him. What others could not get even if they worked hard their whole life, he had them all.

Although he was unwilling to admit it, he couldn't lie to himself. For many nights, he thought this way, that she would suddenly cback and saw that he had everything now. Then, she would regret abandoning him and he would definitely not look back.

However, reality was much more ironic.

From the moment when he saw her in the hospital, his originally peaceful life was torn apart. She didn't show any remorse, and he couldn't be indifferent at all. Everything was the opposite.

In front of the windshield, there was a big, red cargo truck.

Theodore tightened his grip on the steering wheel and floored the accelerator. He slid left and then floored the accelerator again. Amidst the roar of the engine, he was ready to overtake the truck.

Just a second before he caught up, the windshield suddenly shook and the red truck suddenly changed lanes. His lights shone on the truck's license plate in front, and Theodore subconsciously closed his eyes.

Bang! There was a loud explosion that seemed to have blown a hole through the night sky, causing it to reverberate in the darkness.

For a few days, Everleigh didn't get in touch with Theodore.

He used to cto the hospital every day, but he didn't cto see Helen anymore. Everleigh didn't want to take the initiative to ask and thought that it might be because he was busy with his work. However, her heart was unsettled. In the afternoon, Everleigh cback from work at the clinic. As soon as she opened the door of the office, she saw Cecil. "When did you come?" "It's been a while. I've cto invite you to dinner."

"I have to go to the VIP ward to take a look. Then only can I get off work." O Everleigh put the documents on the deskand stretched out her hand to press her eyelids. "What's wrong? Why do you look so pale?" "It's nothing." Everleigh shook her head, touched her left eye and said, "My eyelids keep jumping today and I keep feeling as if something is going to happen." Cecil stood up from the sofa and suggested with great enthusiasm, "Why don't you burn ssage or buy scrystals?" Everleigh rolled his eyes at Cecil and said, "What age are you in, and why do you still have such superstitious beliefs?" "Forget it if you don't believe me. Sthings are metaphysical." "You don't have any scientific basis at all..."

Before Everleigh finished speaking, her phone vibrated in her pocket. She pocket. She could only give up arguing with Cecil NO for the tbeing. She took out her phone and looked at it. When she saw the caller ID, her eyes narrowed.
