Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Chapter 229 Heart Of Steel

Theodore had never thought that he would use the phrase "she's married" as an excuse to get rid of Everleigh's persistent suitor.

However, that day, when he saw Everleigh and Stainley talking and laughing together, his jealousy went through the roof and he didn't care about what excuse he used at all.

Didn't she say that they were just friends? Well, friends also had the obligation to persuade them to mind their own ethics.

Theodore's words caused Stainley to be slightly taken aback, and he looked at Theodore with surprise.

After a long while, Stainley replied, "I know."

It was only two simple words. His tone was very casual and even somewhat helpless. His calm reaction was far beyond Theodore's expectations.

His eyes darkened. "You know?"

Stainley repeated, "I always knew, and on the day when Everleigh and Christopher were at the City Hall in Maniville, I was there."

"Is this what you want to say? Is this what you want to remind others of?" As if listening to a joke, Everleigh's face quickly soured, and she went straight upstairs to pick up Adrienne. Without saying a word, she walked past Theodore without looking back.

On the way out of the Godfrey Mansion, Everleigh kept a straight face.

Theodore actually thought that she would pretend to be single just to interact with other men? What kind of person did he think she was?

In the back seat, the two children had fallen asleep.

Stainley was holding the steering wheel and driving the car slowly. "Don't be angry. He is not such an impulsive person usually. Maybe he is really anxious?"

"Even if he's anxious, does that mean that he can think of me that way? Also, what's there to be anxious about?"

"In fact, if it was me, I might act like that as well."
