Chapter 40 The One Who Would Not Move On

The atmosphere in the office was gloomy.

Theodore's cold eyes were like a black hole. Everleigh's remarks made him swallow his pain.

He was calm as he faced the woman whom he once loved.

He did not reply; hence Everleigh took his silence as a sign that he was guilty.

She hugged Adrienne tightly in her arms and tried to speak as calmly as possible, "I'm telling you for the last time, the kids don't have anything to do with you, so don't bother them again. Otherwise, I'll call the police." "Call the police?" A hint of mockery flashed in Theodore's calm eyes, but he laughed.

"I'm sure that a huge company like Godfrey Group wouldn't want any troubles because of their president's behavior, right?"

Seven years ago, Everleigh did not make a fuss when she broke up with Theodore and left Ocpeace City. She was always bright and positive in front of him, and she was never mad.

She buried her feelings for him in her memories and left everything behind.

Maybe she was cruel and had forgotten all about it.

He was the only one who would not move on.

"Mommy, I brought Adrienne here."

Everleigh's face stiffened, and she lowered her head in shock. Alastair was tugging her shirt, and he stared up at her carefully.

"What did you say?"

"Adrienne made a fuss and said she wanted to see Uncle Godfrey. I had no choice but to bring her here. Uncle Godfrey was very busy, so Adrienne and I stayed here the whole afternoon, and she even fell asleep." Alastair explained everything concisely.

Everleigh's body went numb.
