Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Chapter 55 I Don't Need A Double

In the Jackson Hospital Canteen.

Stainley gave all of his ribs to Everleigh, but she still looked depressed.

"Did Theodore come to find fault with you?"

Stainley's words pulled Everleigh back to reality. "No."

"That's good. Here, eat."

"Thank you."

Stainley was a man of few words. He did not speak much, but he was very caring.

The pork ribs in the hospital canteen were very delicious, but for some reason, it tasted like wax to her today.

"Stainley, when did you find out about Theodore and me?"

"Why are you suddenly asking about this?"

"I thought you didn't know about it."

Everleigh had never asked Stainley about this. When she was abroad, she thought Stainley did not know about her history with Theodore, just like her other friends back home. She only realized that he knew the night he dropped her home. Both the kids ran up to Theodore, but Stainley was not surprised. He did not ask her anything about him, either. "When we were in our second year, I saw you and him hanging out around school," Stainley replied.

"Second year?" Everleigh seemed to be lost in her thoughts. "You've known for that long?"

He kept this a secret for a decade, yet he had never brought it up even once.

Seeing that Everleigh was silent, he asked, "Actually, I've always wanted to ask you. Is he the father of Alastair and Adrienne? I've always thought that your departure was a bit sudden and that maybe you had your reasons, but I was afraid that you would be unhappy if I brought it up."

"No." Everleigh forced a smile. "It has nothing to do with him."
