Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Chapter 86 Everything Went Wrong Theodore frowned. The second Everleigh raised her hand, he had already taken a step forward. However, Josephine was still in his arms, so he could not stop her.

In truth, even if Josephine was not in his arms, he could not stop her too.

Everleigh's actions were too fast and she did not hesitate at all. Her decisiveness was still the sas ever. This was a part of her that had not changed at all.

After pouring cold water on herself, she left the restaurant without looking back. Even though she was in a mess, she still walked straight and upright. The people who were watching her felt that there would be nothing in this world that would make her bend her knees.

Theodore did not expect her to do this. Regret and pain flashed in his eyes.

He only wanted to anger her, to see her lose her temper, to see her blaming him, to see her flustered because of the troubles she had caused. He even wanted to see her lower her head to him. However, nothing had gone right.

After a long time, a woman's soft and timid voice cfrom her, "Theodore, Everleigh must have misunderstood me. I really wanted to help her solve her children's school problems. It should be because of our relationship. She must have suspectedfor having ulterior motives." Theodore was deep in thoughts, and his dark eyes returned to their usual coldness.

"Don't you have other motives?" His cold words contained a sense of alienation and Josephine's heart tightened. When she cback to her senses, he'd already let go of her.

"You invited the both of us to the srestaurant. Do not tellit is a coincidence." After leaving his warm and broad chest, the water on her felt colder when the cold air blew against her. When Josephine suddenly realized it, she got nervous, "Theodore..." "Josephine, I don't like women who pretend they are smart." Before he left, Theodore gave her a look. He did not hesitate when he left.

Josephine stood where she was; her elegant hair and clothes were splashed by Everleigh and she looked terrible. She clenched her fist, her fingernails pricking her palms. She cback to her senses from the pain.

Of course she knew that Theodore would not be fooled so easily. She had not thought this through at all; her plan was full of loopholes. Anyone with a brain would know that she was deliberately waiting for the perfect tfor Theodore to see this scene.

But did that matter at all? Theodore did not like women who were too smart. He only let her stay beside him because she was obedient, right? Even if she occasionally made a ruckus, everything she did had to be within his control. That was enough. She wanted Theodore to always be by her side so that she could always feel safe.

To Theodore, this was the biggest difference between her and Everleigh.

Dusk quietly fell; this was the peak hour of Ocpeace City. Business districts were filled with traffic as they usually were. Under the traffic lights were the scene of cars upon cars.

Everleigh's car was one of the many caught in the immense traffic. She played loud music inside her car and crazy rock music was roaring in her ears. Every drum beat from the music made her heart beat wildly. She was trying to cut herself off from reality with the insanely loud music.

When the lights turned green, she drove through the heavy traffic and drove towards the highway. She stepped on the pedal and went way past the speed limit. She overtook a lot of cars and it even seemed like she was drifting. She drove crazily in the night.

After an unknown period of time, when she finally left the highway, her arms felt numb, and her legs were also limp and weak from stepping on the gas pedal. The car gradually slowed down and she drove back into the streets.

The phone rang, followed by a lazy voice from the other side. He sounded so lazy that it seemed like he needed a beating, "Hmm?" "The incident from seven years ago, Josephine has something to do with it." Everleigh's voice woke Christopher up immediately. He bolted up from his bed. His movements were big but careless, and he pulled on the quilts too hard. The woman lying next to him muttered discontentedly and rubbed herself against him. Christopher did not even look at the woman. He grabbed his cell phone and went straight to the balcony. The cold wind blew against his face, and he was partially awake from his hangover. "What's the matter? Go on." Although Everleigh had tried to calm herself down, the panic she felt after her emotional breakdown could still be heard through the other end of the phone. "Josephine has the video of what happened back then. She threatened that if I don't leave Ocpeace City, Adrienne and Alastair will not be able to have an easy tin school." Everleigh rarely panicked. When Christopher met her for the first time, he could feel extraordinary calmness and courage from her. In the bar, she was the purest and most innocent amongst the people.

However, this was related to her two children, which was also her biggest weakness.

"Calm down." Christopher's voice was rarely low. "She won't do it. The Bailey family is nothing in Ocpeace City. It's just a low-class third-grade enterprise. It can barely support itself even with the help of Godfrey Group." "Christopher, I want to send Adrienne and Alastair back to Maniville." Everleigh was not afraid of Josephine, but she was worried about her children getting hurt.

Christopher frowned, staying silent for a while, "Everleigh, have you ever thought about it? If Josephine's motive was really to get you to leave Ocpeace City, then as long as you are still there, she will still hurt you and your children. You can't take your children back to Maniville risk-free, unless you leave too." "I will not leave." The purpose of her returning hwas to find out the truth about what had happened seven years ago. It was an incident that was like a knife, stabbing her for seven years, constantly reminding her of the past. She did not want to live in the shadows of fear for the rest of her life.

There was no need for her to explain all this to Christopher, for there was no one else in this world who knew her better than he did.

"So, Alastair and Adrienne will only be completely free with you by their side. Don't worry, I will be back next week. I will stay by your side." There was no reply from the phone for a long, long time.

Christopher's always frivolous face was full of worry. "Everleigh?" After a while, he heard an intermittent sob from the other side of the phone.

Upon hearing her sobs, Christopher heaved a sigh of relief and comforted her. "Let it out, Cry to your heart's content. Not a single person who participated in that incident will get to escape." If her enemies were hiding in the dark, they would not be able to find out anything. But now, Josephine had admitted her involvement in the crime, so she would not be left unpunished.

It was very late, and the white Mini Cooper stopped by the side on a desolate road.

She cried in the car for a long time. From the start of a suppressed sniff, to a burst of emotional tears, she let out all the the grief and Xinwillingness that had accumulated in her heart for seven whole years. The careful and fragile feelings of hers were only released that night, and the man from the other side could hear it clearly. A black Mercedes car was quietly parked on a road far away from the white car. It had been following Everleigh's car at high speed all the way, stalking her throughout her dangerous journey.

Across the car window, a man's dark eyes stared at the car across the road, he he looked at the figure in the dbrok car who broke down and supported herself with the steering wheel through the car window.
