Said I didn’t Love Him But I Lied

Everleigh shook her head. “Nothing. Let’s go back now, I’m a little tired.”

Theodore’s eyes dimmed. Without saying another word, he started the car and headed to the Trevino family’s home.

The next morning, Everleigh was woken up by Adrienne’s crying.

She knew that something was wrong, so she hurried downstairs without even changing her clothes.

When she got downstairs, she saw Melissa swearing like crazy. She looked nothing like an elegant, graceful lady.

Adrienne was scared out of her wits. She hugged Abraham’s legs tightly as she cried loudly.

Hilda and the security guards were trying to chase her out of the door.

“Everleigh, you little b*tch! Are you trying to ruin my whole family?”

“Shut up! Drag her out, and call the police!” Abraham shouted furiously. If Adrienne wasn’t holding his legs, he would have given Melissa a kick.

Selena was awakened by the noise too. She came down in a daze and asked, “Who is this person?”

“Aunt Melissa, please stop this nonsense.” Everleigh’s deep voice rang out, and everyone there immediately went silent.

Seeing Everleigh walking over, Melissa became more infuriated. “It’s all your fault! My husband and daughter were thrown in jail because of you! And you’re even stopping Saniogo from doing anything! You little b*tch, why didn’t you go to hell together with your parents?”

Abraham and Selena were both enraged when they heard her words, especially Selena. She had said something like that before, but now that she was hearing someone else say it, it sounded really hurtful.

“Madam, do you know what you’re talking about? We have the right to sue you,” she shouted unhappily.

“Sure, come at me! Throw us all in jail, you d*mn b*tch!” Melissa couldn’t control her anger. Her face looked incredibly ferocious.

Everleigh turned her head and glanced at Adrienne. There were tears in her eyes, but she was trying her best to control them.

Alastair, on the other hand, was staring at Melissa with his cold eyes.

If she continued swearing and cursing at them, he would not let her go.

“Aunt Melissa, to be honest, Uncle Yeezoo and Cynthia asked for it. I’ve never wanted to take anything away from you, but all of you are constantly trying to put me in trouble.” Everleigh’s eyes were slightly cold. She wasn’t showing any sympathy for her at all.

People like Melissa took everyone for granted. If Everleigh showed them any kindness or sympathy, they would think that she was afraid of them.

“If it wasn’t for you, would they even be jailed? Everleigh, you shouldn’t have appeared in the family from the very beginning.”

“Well, since I’ve already appeared in the family, there’s no use quarreling with me right now. Aunt Melissa, you’re a member of a prestigious family after all. Why can’t you understand such simple logic?”

“Don’t you dare scare me or suppress me with your status? Let me tell you something. Now that I’m here, I’ll make sure that you won’t step out of this door until you release my family.” Melissa sounded like a complete virago who had lost every bit of her elegance.

Everleigh’s lips curled up as she glanced at Abraham. “Dad, do you know her?”

“I know her parents. Melissa is an aggressive and bad-tempered woman. If it wasn’t for the overindulgence of her parents, she wouldn’t have become a woman like this,” he replied in a low voice.

When Melissa’s family and Yeezoo’s family were first connected through marriage, it was just like a fairytale. However, as time passed, it was impossible for them to return to the past.

Yeezoo was never a favorite in the family. However, since the two of them were madly in love, Melissa’s parents couldn’t go against it. Moreover, Yeezoo was still a part of the Jenkins family after all. His family was somewhat reputable, so her family reluctantly agreed.

“Oh, so Cynthia’s bad behavior runs in her family.” Everleigh suddenly said, as if she had finally understood everything that was going on.

Hearing that, Melissa was even more displeased. “Of course my daughter needs to be loved, unlike you, you orphan. No one likes you, and no one cares about you. An orphan like you doesn’t have the right to talk about Cynthia. I know, you’re just jealous of her, and that’s why you want her dead, right?”

When Everleigh heard it, she found it ridiculously hilarious.

“Wow, your upbringing is really impressive. Aunt Melissa, haven’t you heard that love kills? Everything that has happened to Cynthia to this day is all your fault. Let me warn you one last time. If you leave now, I can forgive you. However, if you stay and continue with your nonsense, don’t blame me for being rude.”

“Hmph, I’d really like to see what you can do to me.” Melissa didn’t believe that Everleigh would dare to do anything to her.

Alastair, who remained silent the whole time, said to the security guard, “Drag her out now and wait for the police to arrive. Since she wants to reunite with her family, let her meet them in jail.”

He wasn’t showing any mercy at all.

Instead, he sounded even heartless.

“Don’t you dare, you little b*stard.”

Selena became completely angry. “Drag her out, now!”

“Yes, Miss.”

Melissa thought that no one would dare to touch her. She only realized that Everleigh wasn’t kidding after she was dragged out.

The police arrived the exact moment Melissa fell to the ground. Abraham told the police that the woman had been causing trouble early in the morning. He wanted to sue her for trespassing on private property.

When Melissa was taken away, she was really disgruntled. She even hit one of the police officers. Hence, she had earned herself a new charge, assault on a police officer.

Selena and Everleigh sat on the sofa, and Selena couldn’t help but ask, “Is this something you have to put up with all the time in the Jenkins family?”

“Not really, it’s just a few of them. I’m fine with the rest,” Everleigh replied helplessly.

However, there was something odd about Yeezoo and his family. Apart from being lecherous, she felt that there was something else strange about them.

Selena didn’t believe her. Rich families were extremely complicated. Although their family wasn’t the wealthiest or the most famous one, there were already a lot of troubles.

No one could live comfortably in that kind of situation.

Everleigh hesitated for a moment before she took out her phone and called Saniogo to tell him about everything.

“Ugh, Melissa is getting really disobedient. Everleigh, don’t worry about it. I’ll take care of it.”

“Well, thank you then, Uncle Saniogo. This whole matter is supposed to be settled within the Jenkins family, so it’s not really good to bring the Trevino family into it.”

He understood. “I know. I promise there won’t be a next time.”

She didn’t want the Trevino family to be involved in the Jenkins family’s madness. Abraham was her adopted father, so she had to repay his kindness.

It was something that she would never be able to fully do in her life.

After that, Everleigh went to the hospital to work as usual. A nurse came in and said, “Dr. Trevino, someone is looking for you outside.”

“Who is it?”

“It’s the man who was beaten up last time because he was caught stalking and investigating a woman.” The nurse couldn’t remember his name, but she remembered the reason he was previously admitted to the hospital.

Everleigh’s face froze. She immediately knew who it was.

“I’ll go out and have a look,” she said as she put down the file in her hands. Then, she went out.

As soon as she arrived at the corridor, she saw Elvir’s figure. He was still wearing the same leather jacket and had messy hair. Strangers might think that he was a homeless man.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

“Mr. Carter.”

“Miss Trevino,” he greeted. He then took out a file from his bag and passed it to her, before he prepared to leave.
