Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Chapter 137 She Had Never Forgotten About Him

"Live a good life?" Everleigh clenched her fists and asked through gritted teeth.

Although she knew better than anyone that Theodore did not know anything about what happened seven years ago and that he was kept in the dark the whole time, how could he so easily tell her to 'live a good life'? As if she didn't want to live a good life?

If it was him who had experienced everything that happened on that rainy night seven years ago, could he merely treat that day as any other day, as if nothing had happened and live a good life?

Her eyes were slightly red and her beautiful almond-shaped eyes were filled with anger and pain. She looked at Theodore's eyes but he misunderstood her gaze.

After a long silence, he took out his cheque book and wrote ten million dollars for her.

"What is the meaning of this?" Everleigh's face changed but he did not catch it.

"Don't get me wrong. Take this as a congratulatory gift on your marriage." Theodore's voice was still low, but he didn't seem to have much strength. In fact, he even sounded self-deprecating. "I hope my mother did not cause too much harm to you back then."

No matter how good their friendship was, it would not amount to ten million dollars.

Although he said it was a congratulatory gift, it felt more like a compensation. In Theodore's eyes, he had to compensate Everleigh for the pain and suffering that she had to bear because of him.

Everleigh did not feel the slightest ripple in her heart when she looked at the cheque. She even thought with sarcasm that if she told him that not only was her family and studies affected, but also about the incident that rainy night, how much money should he compensate her?

What made her heart sink was not Theodore's self-righteous advice for her to let go of her past and live a good life, but the fact that he used the money to draw a sloppy end to their past.

She finally let go of the last bit of burden in her heart.
