Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied
Chapter 331 Changes In A Year

Everleigh returned to the Trevino family home. Selena and Hilda were in the living room, but she couldn't hear their conversation.

They heard the sound of footsteps and turned to look.

"Miss Everleigh, when did you come back?" Hilda cried out in surprise.

Everleigh put her suitcase aside and sat on the sofa wearily, her eyes fixed on Selena.

After not seeing her for a year, she felt that her sister was more charming than before.

Selena's eyes were full of disgust. "Did they not give you a place to stay? Why are you so tanned?"

"Yeah, they might as well not have." Everleigh didn't mind her tone as she was used to it. Rather, she would be surprised if Selena really cared about her.

Selena snorted. She really couldn't understand why her sister was willing to go to those places.

Hilda was used to seeing the two sisters talk in such a way so she went to take care of Everleigh's luggage.

Selena saw her lying motionlessly on the sofa and asked, "If you are sleepy, then go to bed. If other people come in and see you like this, they will think you have no manners. Do you still want to embarrass Dad?" "I'm hungry. What are we having for dinner?" Everleigh was at the door when she heard Selena asked Hilda to cook her favorite dishes.

That was why she didn't go upstairs.

Selena thought Everleigh didn't hear it, so she snorted and went upstairs with her phone.

Everleigh smiled and looked around at the familiar surroundings. Sure enough, home was the best place to be.

Everleigh didn't sleep the whole evening as she tried to get over the jet lag. When she heard her two children come back, she hurried down the stairs.

"Mommy." Adrienne noticed Everleigh and ran over with a grin on her face. "Mommy, you're finally back. I missed you so much."

"Mommy, when did you come back?" Alastair was much calmer. Although his expression was not exaggerated, the yearning in his eyes showed.

"I came back this morning and was resting at home. You two sure have grown in the past year. You've lost some weight too, Adrienne." Everleigh squatted and gently caressed their faces. A lot had changed. Yet their appearances stayed the same.

Abraham also came back not long after. He knew Everleigh would be coming back that day, so he purposely put off his schedule to have a meal with his family.

Everleigh's favorite dishes were all on the table. Abraham looked at her, who got tanned, and put some food on her plate. "Eat up. You've lost a lot of weight. Your hand looks much stronger too."

She smiled and said, "Because it's a little unsafe there, I learned some self-defense skills from the locals. I also work out in the morning, so I gained a little muscle as time went by." Adrienne was eating and asked, "Mommy, are the people nice? They don't seem very friendly."

"No, there are good people. I'll bring you there if we get a chance." Everleigh felt the enthusiasm of the locals.

She felt nostalgic in her heart.

When Abraham heard that it was unsafe, he said, "Forget it, Adrienne shouldn't go."

"

Everleigh knew that her father did not want to part with her, and she was also only thinking out loud.

After dinner, they sat on the sofa and chatted. Everleigh bought gifts. Selena liked jewelry so she bought an authentic diamond. She couldn't buy much due to limited funds. She bought toys for Alastair and Adrienne while she got some local specialties for her father.

Suddenly, her phone rang. It was from Cecil. She had totally forgotten to tell her that she was back.

"Cecil."

"Why didn't you tell me that you've come back?" Cecil asked in an interrogative tone.

Everleigh smiled and said, "You couldn't come back even if I told you. I might as well give you a surprise when I pick you up at the airport."

"I'm glad that you still have some conscience, but when are you going there? They know that you're back."

Everleigh heard her words and was slightly stunned. She looked at her father who was fondling the gift she had bought.

She slightly lowered her eyes and said softly, "Let's talk about it later. Not everyone wants to see me."

"Still, there are many people hoping for your return. Your identity is different after all." Cecil knew her concerns. However, when the truth was revealed, things would naturally change. Moreover, it was not necessary to completely disregard the Trevino family.

"Let's talk about something else. When are you coming back?"

"Three days later. I won't be going anywhere for a while after I get back so I can help you." Cecil sounded excited as she was looking forward to seeing her.

"Okay, I'll pick you up," Everleigh said with a grin. She was looking forward to it too.

After she hung up, Alastair asked, "Mommy, who called?"

"Cecil. She'll be back in a few days, and I'm picking her up since I'm on a break," she explained.

Alastair nodded and sat with Abraham to look over some documents.

Abraham stroked the boy's head and said, "There are no papers tonight. You can go to bed early." Alastair was saddened.

"Okay, Grandpa."

Everleigh looked at him and asked, "Are you still learning from Grandpa?"

"Alastair has been working very hard. When he gets home and finishes his homework, he will talk about business with Dad. He has very different viewpoints, so sometimes, Dad will listen to him," Selena explained while her eyes were still on the diamond.

"Alastair is a business genius, but it's a shame for him to be studying under my guidance." Abraham felt sorry. His resources were limited so no matter how much experience he had, it still wasn't enough. If only there was someone to guide him professionally, then it wouldn't take Alastair long to be successful.

"Dad, I have someone in mind if you are not against it."

"You mean Felicia?"

"Theodore." Everleigh couldn't help but felt a little nervous when she said his name.

Theodore wasn't actually interested in the business field but if he decided to take over, he wouldn't be fooling around.

Alastair was his child so Theodore would definitely teach him everything he knew.

When Abraham heard his name, his expression changed and so did Selena.

Theodore had visited several times over the past year but was rejected by Alastair. Although Adrienne looked forward to seeing him, she didn't dare to say anything because of her brother.

"There's no need for that. Grandpa and I are doing pretty good together," Alastair didn't want to mention Theodore either.

"I'm just thinking out loud. Felicia's a good choice too, but the Meyer family..." After all, they were not actually married. If Alastair learned from her, there might be gossip. Forget it, let's put this plan aside.

It would be bad if the Meyer family said something unpleasant.

"It's getting late. Go and get some rest. Don't you have jet lag? It'll take you more than a day or two to recover," Abraham said as he retreated to his room.

Alastair and Adrienne also went back to their rooms.
