Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Chapter 58 No One Was Holding Anyone Back

The elevator doors creaked open, revealing the garage. The place was cold, even colder than it was on the surface level. Everleigh disliked it as it reminded her of her encounter with Madison the day before. Theodore's assistant was already standing in front of the car. As soon as he saw Everleigh, he politely nodded and greeted her. He opened the door and said, "Dr. Trevino." Theodore was already in the car.

The car left the garage and Jackson Hospital. Outside the window, the view of the trees in the suburbs quickly passed. No one was speaking in the car. The air conditioner was set to a low temperature. It made Everleigh touch her arms in response to feeling cold.

Not long after the car started driving, Everleigh's phone rang. When she saw the caller ID, she subconsciously glanced at Theodore, only to see that he was leaning on the back of his chair and closing his eyes to rest. It seemed like he was not paying attention to her, so she decided to answer the call and said in a low voice, "Hello?"

Stainley's voice coming from the other end sounded a little anxious. "Everleigh, where are you now? I just finished an operation and I heard that you were injured. Are you alright?"

"I'm fine. I've bandaged it."

"Are you still at the set? I'll go look for you. I'll send you home so that you can rest."

"It's okay. I'm on my way home now."

He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good. Go back and have a good rest. I'll head over to see you later."

"It's okay, I..." Everleigh was about to ask him not to worry too much when the hair on the back of her neck stood up. Her intuition had always been accurate as she noticed Theodore's eyes were focused on her. His gaze was all it took to make her feel guilty.

At that instant, she dismissed the call after a few brief replies. Her mind went blank.

"Was that Stainley?"

Theodore's voice came from beside her. Even his voice sounded cold.

Everleigh managed a forced nod and said, "Yes."

"He cares for you, doesn't he? He even follows you wherever you go. He's still the same after all these years."
