Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Chapter 164 Theodore, Have You Turned Back Into a Child?

"How much do you wish for Josephine and I to successfully get married?"

Without waiting for Everleigh's reply, Theodore suddenly asked such a question.

Everleigh looked up and met his aggressive glare.

Under such a glare, she could only pretend to be calm and said, "This has nothing to do with what I wish. I just don't want anything to happen to your life because of me."

"Is that so?" Theodore was obviously doubtful of the sincerity behind her words. "But I've already promised Adrienne."

Everleigh was stunned. "What did you promise her?"

There was a moment of silence.

Although it was only a moment, even less than two seconds, it made one feel suffocated, as if time had stopped at this moment. It felt like a million years had passed.

Theodore didn't answer Everleigh's question. Instead, he asked, "The biggest difference between children and adults is that children can state their own desires and needs directly, but adults like to beat around the bush." Everleigh felt guilty under his gaze. "I don't understand what you mean."

Ever since he heard the phrase 'You have your own life', Theodore's face was filled with a hint of sullenness. He had always been a person who knew how to hide his emotions, but in front of Everleigh, he often didn't have the self-control to do

So.

Indeed, things had changed a lot in seven years. However, when they got in touch with each other, there were so many concealments between them and they always beat around the bush. This made Theodore become impatient these days. From the corner of Theodore's eyes, he glanced in the direction of the living room. The two children were busy playing with Ace. They didn't notice their conversation at all.

"Your marriage with Christopher is a marriage of convenience, isn't it?"

Everleigh's expression changed.
