Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied
Chapter 117 You're Still Thinking About Her

Theodore's words were firm, without the slightest hint of doubt.

Based on what Moses found, Everleigh left Ocpeace City in August. Before then, Christopher had been abroad for half a year and had not returned during this period.

He didn't know how they met, but there was one thing he was sure of - Everleigh's two children couldn't be Christopher's.

"Nothing to do with me?" Christopher frowned, seemingly dissatisfied with what he heard. "Mr. Godfrey, you're so sure of what you're saying. Legally, I am the father of the two children. What do you mean by nothing to do with me?" Theodore frowned and his eyebrows furrowed.

Christopher was admitting it. How could he admit it that easily?

"However, does it matter whether they're my biological children? The entire Meyer family recognizes these children. You even painstakingly sent people to investigate such a small matter. It was completely out of my expectation." Theodore was stunned by how calm Christopher was.

"If I'm not mistaken, you came here because of what happened at the ER last night, right?"

Theodore's expression froze upon hearing this. He neither confirmed nor denied it.

Christopher was quick-witted. Theodore wouldn't have come here for no reason. Moreover, the most recent thing that had to do with Everleigh was the incident in the ER the night before. He happened to see the news on it on his phone at

noon.

"Since you know, why beat around the bush?"

"You're quite infatuated. You immediately rushed here to see Everleigh the moment you saw the news."

Christopher looked at Theodore calmly, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him. He even took away the notebook on the instant noodles and opened the cover. He picked up the fork and twirled it as if he was chatting with an old friend nonchalantly.

Theodore's brows furrowed even deeper at his actions.

He didn't like Christopher. From the first time he met him, he didn't like him very much. Such a man was self-centered and had no self-control. He could do whatever he wanted. It was hard to figure out what he wanted.

Not only did Moses replace out that Christopher and Everleigh were living under the same roof for seven years while abroad, but he also found out that Christopher dated countless women during that period. How Everleigh was with such a man for seven years was beyond him.

Thinking of this, Theodore asked, "You don't seem to care about what I think about her."

How could a normal man calmly chat with another man who cared about his own wife? Christopher was reacting abnormally.

"Why should I care about what you think?"

"Yes, but it seems that you don't care about what she thinks. A few days ago, didn't you drink in Lonaldo Bar the whole night?" Christopher's indifferent face tensed up a little upon these words. "Did you send someone to follow me?"

Who was the Meyer family in Ocpeace City? He was well-protected by bodyguards when he was abroad, let alone in his own territory. Theodore must have gone through a lot of hassle to go through with this. Theodore's voice was very cold. "I'm just curious as to how real the love between both of you was."

His instinct was discerning. He was with Everleigh for five years. No one knew how Everleigh looked like when she was in love better than him. He did not see any signs of love for Christopher in Everleigh. The conversation was at wit's end.

Both men were beating around the bush and they finally came to the key point of the problem.

Christopher was still as calm as before, but deep down, he had some admiration for the man standing before him.

As expected of Theodore. He could tell that there was something wrong with his marriage with Everleigh.

However, no evidence supported his claim that they were in a fake marriage. Legally, other than sleeping in separate rooms, they were, in fact, a real married couple.

No one continued the topic. It was a tacit understanding between adults.

Christopher stopped beating around the bush with Theodore and said bluntly, "No matter how real my relationship with Everleigh is, our marriage is real legally. Mr. Godfrey, you've investigated and asked so much just to send a message to me."

He looked at Theodore and said, "You're still thinking about her."

There was a vein throbbing on Theodore's temple and anger appeared on his face.

However, Christopher did not wait for him to answer. "But unfortunately, it's too late. Even if Everleigh and I get a divorce, can you break off the engagement with your fianceé?"

In seven years, everyone was on a path of not turning back.

"You're overthinking," Theodore said coldly.

"I hope I'm overthinking," Christopher snorted.

He said what he needed to say. If he stayed any longer, it would just be verbal sparring. Hence, Theodore said, "I still have some matters to attend to. I'm leaving."

As Theodore reached for the door, Christopher suddenly called out to him. "Mr. Godfrey, aren't you curious? Why did Everleigh have to break up with you seven years ago?" Theodore's hand, which was holding on to the door handle, paused.

Everleigh told him the answer. It was because she was pregnant with the two children. She turned her back against the Trevino family for the sake of the fatherless children and left for seven years.

He did not look back and said with a hint of self-mockery in his voice, "As you said, seven years is enough to bury everything, including curiosity."

The first year Everleigh left, he searched for answers. He searched for a reasonable explanation. He wanted to know why she forwent her five-year relationship with him. It was completely unreasonable.

However, it was too long that it was numbing. If Everleigh hadn't appeared again, he thought he would stop listening to anything about her ever again.

Christopher's voice came from behind. "What if I tell you that it had something to do with you?"

Theodore was startled for a moment before he turned around.

"What did you say?"

Christopher had been sitting in his chair the entire time with a serious look that rarely appeared in his eyes. When he looked at Theodore, it was obvious that he was unhappy. However, at that moment, he was staring straight at Theodore. If they wanted to replace out what happened seven years ago, they had to start from the Godfrey family. If they insisted on starting from the Godfrey family, why not just blame the person who was most likely to cause those problems? Christopher never denied that he was scum. As long as things were convenient for him, he would cut corners without hesitation.

The most important thing was that he didn't have any feelings for Theodore as he had for Everleigh. He had no qualms about taking advantage of him.

Instead of letting Everleigh barge into the Godfrey family, it was better to have Theodore, who was suspected of being the 'culprit of the incident', personally investigate the matter.
