Said I didn’t Love Him But I Lied

Selena nodded. What Everleigh said was true. Back then, Theodore didn’t even show Wilson any respect when he came forward to protect her.

This alone was enough to prove his feelings for her.

Everleigh went back to work at the hospital. The situation of the Trevino family had come to an end. After making rounds in the hospital, she received a text message from Elvir, telling her that he had gone to Hallowy City. He said that he would inform her if there was any news.

Thinking of this, she realized that she had forgotten about Saniogo. She could’ve just asked him who had been to the plane maintenance site.

She decided to go and see him. He was alone, and Alexander and Cecil were not in the ward.

“Uncle, why are you alone? Where is Alexander?”

Hearing Everleigh’s voice, Saniogo looked over and asked with a smile, “Why are you here? Aren’t you busy today?”

“I’ve just finished my work. Where’s Alexander?” She asked again.

“He has gone to the office. There is no one to deal with company affairs when everyone is here. Besides, I am feeling much better today so I asked him to go to work first.”

“Where is Cecil?” She asked.

He laughed and responded, “Everleigh, Cecil isn’t the daughter-in-law of the Jenkins family yet. I can’t always have her accompany me.”

She nodded with a smile in her eyes. “Cecil actually won’t care so much. She is a warm-hearted person.”

“I can see that. Your cousin is so arrogant that I was so worried that he might end up alone in the end, but seeing that Cecil is such a good child, I know that he is very lucky,” he said very contentedly.

As long as Alexander had a goal, Saniogo would not object to it. Moreover, he also believed in his son’s taste. Not any person could easily catch his eye.

Everleigh smiled and stopped talking about it.

She hesitated for a moment before saying, “Uncle, I saw Elvir earlier and I have new clues.”

His entire body trembled at her words and his expression turned a little stiff. He then asked, “What did he say?”

“Uncle, how many women could get in the place where the plane was at that time?”

“If you’re talking about women, it’s only your aunt and your mother. They’re all part of the Jenkins family after all,” he thought about it carefully. There were only a few of them.

Hearing this, she was a little stunned.

“Are you sure?”

“I’m very sure about it. The plane won’t take off so easily unless it reaches a certain time,” he answered truthfully.This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

She was stunned. If that was the case, she asked, “Uncle, does any woman in our family have a crescent-shaped birthmark on her neck?”

“There’s no such thing. It’s not like it’s a hidden part of the body. We can see it clearly by looking at what they wear when they attend a banquet,” he responded.

She nodded. It was true. Could it be that Mr. White had made a mistake? Or was he lying?

Thinking of him, he didn’t seem to be lying. She had met a lot of people. If he was really lying, she could only say that he was amazing at acting.

Seeing the solemn expression on her face, he asked, “Is that person someone with a birthmark on her neck?”

“Yes, that’s what I heard, but I’m not sure after listening to your words,” Everleigh said in a distressed tone. She was going around in circles and had come back to the starting point. Even if she could find new evidence, it would be useless. It was still a dead end and there was no difference between finding it or not.

“Why don’t you go ask again?”

“I can’t. That person is already dead.” She smiled bitterly. She didn’t know how to describe her current mood.

His eyes flickered as he pursed his lips. After a long while, he finally said, “Did he see it wrongly or did he mistake it for something else?”

“Now that he is dead, even if I want to ask, I can’t anymore.” The only hope now was in Hallowy City.

She hoped that God wouldn’t play tricks on her anymore and let her find that person as soon as possible.

Saniogo knew that she couldn’t wait. He could understand such feelings because he had felt it before. When he heard the news of his brother and his brother’s wife’s deaths, he became infuriated and everyone looked like murderers in his eyes. As time passed, those thoughts faded away gradually.

People still had to look forward and move on. They couldn’t always live in the past.

“Everleigh, there are some things that can’t be rushed. Let’s take it slow.”

“Uncle, I get your point, but it is really difficult to do it. Just like now, I’m happy each time I receive news, but when I know that there is no such person, my heart drops,” Everleigh said tiredly.

She also wanted to have closure and continue living life in a positive light, but she really didn’t have such a generous heart.

He understood that such things couldn’t be rushed.

She had lunch with him at noon. Neither of them had an appetite, so they just took a few bites.

“Uncle, you’ll go for another examination tomorrow. If there’s nothing serious, I’ll change the prescription for you.”

“Alright, it’s up to you,” he replied nonchalantly.

“What do you mean it’s up to Everleigh?” Missha’s figure came in from the door with a lot of food in her hands.

The two of them looked at each other and Everleigh asked, “Aunt Missha, why are you here?”

“I thought that you didn’t have time to eat lunch so I asked them to make something for you, but… I seem to be too late.” She looked at the empty plates on the table.

Saniogo said helplessly, “Come earlier if you’re here to deliver food. You didn’t show up until we finished eating.”

“Saniogo, it’s not my fault. There was a car accident on the way here and the traffic was congested for a long time.” Missha put down the bag in her hands as she spoke.

Everleigh frowned. “A car accident? Where is it?”

“It’s in the city center. By the way, the ambulance is from this hospital…”

Before Missha could finish her sentence, she saw a nurse running into the ward in a hurry. She looked at Everleigh and said, “Dr. Trevino, Dr. Harrison asked you to hurry to the emergency room. A patient had a car accident, and there’s a problem with his heart. He wants you…” Before the nurse finished her words, Everleigh had already hurried out.

Looking at Everleigh, Saniogo and Missha looked at each other and said nothing.

Even if she was in a hurry, she should’ve walked slower.

The whole afternoon passed, but Everleigh had yet to come back. Missha paced back and forth in the ward, looking at the door from time to time.

“How serious is that operation? Why hasn’t the patient come out yet?”

“Don’t keep on walking back and forth. I feel dizzy watching you.” Saniogo was already anxious. It looked even more irritating now that she paced back and forth.

She could only sit there obediently. Everleigh came back in the evening but her hands were trembling slightly.

Since the last incident, she couldn’t hold things for too long. Otherwise, her hand would keep shaking like this.

“Everleigh, what’s wrong with your hand?”

“I’m fine; I’m just a little tired. I’ll be fine after a rest,” Everleigh replied as she massaged her right hand to ease it.

Seeing this, Saniogo took out his phone and sent a message to Alexander asking him to buy a hand massager.
