Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Chapter 220 Brain Hemorrhage For a week in a row, Everleigh took care of Theodore in the hospital every night.

As it was almost Thanksgiving, the two children's school was about to hold their annual Talent Show. After Everleigh received the invitation, she took a half-day leave on purpose to go shopping with Cecil. "The sun really is rising from the west. You're actually going shopping for new clothes. I take it that you're not wearing a white t- shirt and jeans to attend the children's school activities this time?" At the shopping mall, Everleigh smiled helplessly as she heard what Cecil said. "Don't I usually wear that all the time? Nothing is more comfortable than a shirt and jeans under my white coat." "You'll find a way to justify yourself no matter what. That pretty face is wasted on you." Cecil rolled her eyes at her. "I'm really jealous of you. You don't even have dark circles around your eyes after working on the night shift for more than a week. How do you manage it?" When it cto the night shift, Everleigh felt a little guilty and changed the subject. "Enough, aren't we going shopping? That shop seems good. Let's go in and have a look." "Which one?" "That one," Everleigh said while pointing to a shop far away. When she caught a glimpse of the person who was carrying the bags behind her, she hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Do we have to take him with us?" Following her gaze, Cecil turned to look behind her.

Leon was dressed in a casual suit. His hands were full of shopping bags and he was diligent and earnest like a pack mule. Seeing Cecil turn around, he immediately smiled.

However, she just gave him a fake smile before she quickly turned around and said in a low voice, "Do you think I was willing to take him with me? He just keeps following me, so I'm just going to use him as free labor." Despite the fact that Cecil was arrogant and cold to Leon, Everleigh was still worried.

In the past, he had hurt Cecil very deeply. Although she had never discussed it, Everleigh silently took all of it in. "You'd better think about it carefully. Don't repeat the smistakes." "What do you mean? Am I that kind of person?" Cecil said simply, "But I wouldn't mind it if you locked him up in the lab again like last time." When it cto this, Everleigh couldn't help laughing out loud.

"What are you two talking about?" Leon's voice could be heard from behind her. Then, he cup and said, "Tellabout it. Don't be so ruthless. You treatlike a hapless pack mule." Everleigh hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Nothing, we're just chatting." "How could it be nothing?" "Do you want to know?" Cecil replied before she stood in place and swiped at her phone screen with her elegant fingers until a QR code showed up. "10, 000 dollars, and I'll tell you after you pay me." "10, 000? That's extortion." "So you're not going to do it? Then forget it." Cecil immediately put away her mobile phone and didn't force him at all.

He was anxious. "Hey, I didn't say I wasn't going to do it. Just wait forto take out my phone." Everleigh looked on as Cecil received money from Leon, and she quietly mused that he was far too easy to extort.

After he paid, Leon asked, "Can you tellnow?" "Yes." Cecil smiled mysteriously. "We were just talking about how you were locked up in the lab of Ocpeace Medical University and spent the night with the lecturer." As soon as she finished speaking, Leon's expression changed immediately. He paled considerably before he put down the things in his hands and rushed towards the bathroom.

As she looked at his retreating figure, Everleigh said helplessly, "Cecil, wasn't that a bit much?" "Was it?" Cecil looked disdainful and said, "He asked for it. I just told him the truth." "It's better not to mention it again. I think it really traumatized him." "Seriously? Is it that bad?" "Yes," Everleigh said with a rare seriousness in her tone, "When we first met that lecturer, everyone threw up their breakfast. If we were like this, would Leon stand a chance?" After he broke up with Cecil that year, Everleigh was so angry that she managed to trick him into entering the lab. Then, she locked him up for the whole night and when she went there the next morning, Leon was being taken away by an ambulance.

Everleigh said, "He nearly vomited up gastric acid that day and he's been nauseous whenever he heard about the incident ever since." "It serves him right." Cecil simply spat out the words and immediately changed the subject. "Let's go shopping. We don't have to worry about him." At that time, in the mall's bathroom.

The man in the light gray casual suit leaned against the sink and vomited. After a long time, he still felt like retching when he looked up, so his mind remained blank.

Amidst the splashing of water, Leon washed his face and calmed down. He looked up at himself in the mirror. His pair of dark eyes were much dimmer, absent of the earlier excitement of the past.

How much did Cecil hate him? After meeting him again for so many years, she would casually rub salt on his wound and do the most heartless things with an extremely indifferent attitude over and over again.

It was clearly she who suggested the breakup back then.

Then, the cell phone in his pocket rang, jolting him out of his reverie.

"Hello?" He pressed the answer button.

Leon's expression changed when he heard what the other party was saying. "What? The hemorrhage has spread?" Planning your weekend reading? Ensure you're on 05sfor uninterrupted enjoyment.

Cecil had chosen a light gray silk skirt for her. The cutting was amazing and it almost seemed tailored to Everleigh's body. Furthermore, it also had a very elegant style.

"Of course, I have a good eye. Buy this one." "It's not easy to take care of silk." Everleigh replied with shesitance in her voice.

"If you wanted something easy, then you might as well wear your white coat to the talent show CeciProlled her eyes before she instructed the shopkeeper next to her. "I'm going to take this shirt in this size." As they spoke, a figure rushed into the shop.

"Everleigh, something's wrong." Leon ran over in a hurry. He held his knees and gasped for breath in front of the both of them. "I just received a phone call saying that Theodore's latest test results showed that the cerebral hemorrhage has spread... He might need a craniotomy." Everleigh's expression suddenly changed. "What? How could this happen?" "I don't know." Leon was still panting. "He suddenly fainted and hasn't woken up yet. He has been sent to the operating room."

"No, what?" Cecil looked at the two Ο people in front of her with a puzzled look. "What are you talking about? NO cousin? Theodore? Everleigh, Youncol why are you still in contact with him? You..." "Just pay forfirst. I have to go to the hospital." Before Cecil finished speaking, Everleigh took her bag directly from her hands, turned and ran out of the shop. "Everleigh..." Before Cecil could catch up with her, she heard the voice of the staff behind her. "Madam, you haven't paid for the dress yet."
