Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Chapter 35 Extra Care

Theodore's cold gaze flustered Everleigh. She forced herself to say, "My sister is young and immature. She debuted at a young age, so sometimes she doesn't know right from wrong."

The man's eyes were piercing, and he snorted, "You're trying to say that I don't know right from wrong?"

"That's not what I meant..."

Everleigh felt like he would find fault in everything she said. Therefore, she concluded, "I'm sorry, just pretend that I didn't say anything. I said too much."

She shut her mouth immediately.

Theodore shot a cold glance at her. A few moments later, he stopped glaring at her.

The scenery outside the window flashed by. Everleigh was very familiar with the city. After seven years, it was more prosperous than before. After the car entered the city, it blended in with the rest of the traffic. Eventually, bright neon lights lit up and surrounded the city.

Theodore dropped Everleigh at her place.

Before getting off, he handed Everleigh a box of chocolates. He stared at her shocked face and maintained his cold tone. "It's not for you. Give it to Adrienne."

Everleigh held the box of chocolates, and her eyes were dry. After a long pause, she found her voice and replied, "I thank you on behalf of Adrienne. Thank you for sending me back today."

The car window slowly rolled up, and his cold face gradually disappeared behind the window. Before the window was shut, her eyes locked into his. She forgot to hide the pain in her eyes. Although she averted her gaze hurriedly, he spotted the look in her eyes.

Back then, they were together for four years, and they knew each other better than anyone else. If she did not leave without a word, no one would have guessed that their relationship would end that very summer. It was night when Everleigh entered the apartment.

The twins were in the living room. When they heard the sound from the door, a pink figure bounced up from the sofa like a ball. Adrienne rushed to Everleigh and hugged the latter. "Mommy, you're back!" Everleigh bent down to hug Adrienne, and she felt a little better. She said softly, "How was today? I wasn't at home, so did you listen to your brother?"

"Of course, I always listen to Alastair. If you don't believe me, you can ask him."
