Said I didn’t Love Him But I Lied

Vanessa continued after Felicia spoke, telling him that they were dying to have grandchildren. Unfortunately, he had let them down. He had affairs with so many women, but just couldn’t get any one of them pregnant.

She suspected he was infertile.

Christopher’s expression changed in an instant. “Mom, I’ve just gotten divorced. If I look for another woman straight away, what would others think of me?”

He was unhappy with Felicia as well. Why did she always have to chime in on such things?

He was exasperated.

“It doesn’t matter how people look at you. You’re a famous playboy, so you should seize the opportunity. Don’t you know that you’re now a second-hand item? Everleigh has children, so it doesn’t matter, but what about you? You don’t have a successful career, and don’t have your own children. You should at least have either one of those, right?” Samuel sat on the sofa and finally said something.

Everleigh closed her eyes and felt very uncomfortable to hear those words.

Vanessa kicked Samuel secretly to hint at him. “What are you talking about? Can’t you see that Everleigh is still here?”

“I just can’t stand this brat. I had two grandchildren, but I have nothing left now.” Samuel’s words weren’t directed at Everleigh.

In fact, they all understood her situation. If she had a choice back then, she wouldn’t have gotten married to Christopher. She had so many friends, and didn’t necessarily have to choose him.

However, he had his own ulterior motive from the very beginning. He married her just because he wanted to avoid the pressure his family was giving him.

They got married for completely different reasons.

“That’s enough, Dad. You don’t have to say much. I’ll arrange a blind date for Christopher. As for freedom of marriage, I don’t think he deserves it.” Felicia made the decision for her brother directly.

He pulled a long face and wanted to resist, but he was stopped by a sharp gaze from Felicia.

He sat aside, feeling aggrieved, but he didn’t even dare to say anything.

At noon, Everleigh was asked to stay for lunch. She wanted to leave, but Christopher said fiercely, “Now that you’ve settled your own problem, you want to leave me here all alone. How can you be so cruel?”

She was lost for words. She was there to apologize genuinely, unlike him, who was taking things lightly.

However, when she noticed his pitiful look, she had no choice but to stay.

After lunch, the two of them went back to the hospital together. On their way there, Christopher sighed, “I knew things would end up like this. Great, my good days have finally come to an end.”

Everleigh had heard him say the same thing over and over again.

“Christopher, actually… Felicia is right.”

“I know, but if I really get married again, do you think we can still maintain our current relationship? You must be dreaming.”

Her eyes opened wide. “Stop using me as an excuse. I know what’s in your mind. Things like this would happen sooner or later. Well, you can look for someone whom we’re both familiar with. What do you think?”

He gazed at her scornfully. “Can you be more realistic? Do you still want me to help you even after I’m married?”

“Didn’t you just say that?”

“I can say it, but you can’t,” he replied angrily. After everything that he had done for her, why couldn’t she comfort him? He thought to himself.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

She was such an ungrateful person.

Everleigh simply chose to shut up. If she continued talking, he would probably even call her a traitor.

Who knew, Christopher was unhappy that she remained silent. “Why aren’t you talking? What do you mean by this? Do you think you are completely free after our divorce?”

She was completely irritated and said angrily, “What is wrong with you? You’re upset when I talk, and you’re also unhappy when I don’t. Are you looking for trouble?”

“Yeah, I’m annoyed. My family is forcing me to get married, what should I do?” That was what he was worried about.

Felicia’s orders were basically unchallengeable. No one could change her decision.

When they arrived at the hospital, they saw Stainley walking over. “Let’s go. Mr. Lawson wants to have a meeting.”

When the three of them entered the conference room, almost all of the medical staff members were already there.

Benedict’s message was very simple. He wanted to send some employees to study abroad for a period of time as he heard that there was some new technology there. As the best hospital in Ocpeace City, they must be the first one to master the knowledge.

Christopher was still troubled about his own affairs, and didn’t pay attention to what Benedict was talking about.

Looking at him daydreaming, Stainley couldn’t help but ask Everleigh, “What happened to him?”

“His family is forcing him to get married.”

“Poor guy.”

“Yeah, I’m really miserable.” When Christopher suddenly said that, it just so happened that his microphone was turned on, and everyone in the meeting room heard him.

Everyone’s eyes were fixed on them.

Christopher was once again dumbfounded. Why was he always caught red-handed every time they had a meeting? He couldn’t believe it.

Everleigh and Stainley’s eyes met, and they noticed the glee in each other’s eyes.

“What’s so miserable about you?” Benedict asked.

“I… I was just lamenting for a while.”

“Really? Then I’ll give you the chance to train abroad. It won’t be long, and you’ll be back soon.” Benedict decided to send him there.

When Christopher heard that he was going abroad, he was stunned for a moment. Then, a smile eventually appeared on his face and grew wider. His depressed expression was completely gone.

He then accepted it directly.

“Sure, I promise I will complete this task, hahaha…” He laughed gleefully, and everyone in the room thought that there was something wrong with him. They thought he should visit the neurology department.

Everleigh couldn’t bear to look straight at him.

It was too embarrassing.

Benedict also thought that Christopher was crazy, but his medical knowledge was excellent. Hence, he instructed a few other people to go with him.

After the meeting, Christopher looked like a person who had just been reborn.

“Everleigh, don’t get yourself into trouble when I’m not here, okay?” He sounded sad, but there was a wide grin on his face.

She looked at him in disdain. “How long can you hide from this?”

“I don’t care, I’ll hide as long as I can. I must leave before Felicia makes an arrangement, otherwise, it would be too late.”

He had already decided to escape and flee the city.

Everleigh took a deep breath and couldn’t bear to see him in that manner. It would be better for her to talk with Felicia about it.

Christopher left in a hurry. He didn’t leave in sorrow, but with excitement.

In Stainley’s words, he had reached his limit. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have had such determination.

Everleigh certainly understood it, but since Christopher had made up his mind, it wasn’t appropriate for her to meddle in his affairs anymore.

Meanwhile, Theodore was still trying to find out the person who had released the news but to no avail.

“How could this be?”

“Mr. Godfrey, is it possible that someone has erased all the evidence a long time ago?”

“That’s impossible. No evidence can ever be erased completely from the Internet. Besides, who would have such skills?” He felt that the person was targeting Everleigh. If he didn’t investigate it thoroughly, it would probably lead to an even bigger disaster.

He had to do everything to find the culprit.
