Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied
Chapter 41 On The Way?

The next morning, the weather was overcast in Ocpeace City. Everleigh just left her apartment when it started to rain heavily. She had no choice but to retreat into the building, letting out a sigh. "Beep!"

Suddenly, she heard the sound of a car honking in the rain. Everleigh looked up and spotted a white car parked at the gate of the apartment. The window of the passenger seat rolled down to reveal a familiar face. "Everleigh, good morning."

"Stainley?" Everleigh was stunned.

The summer downpour did not last. Shortly after leaving the apartment, the heavy rain slowed to a drizzle, and it was quiet inside the car.

Everleigh stared at Stainley and said, "I'm sorry to trouble you. You even went out of your way to pick me up."

Stainley's slender fingers gripped the steering wheel, and he looked clean and refreshing. His face was calm, and he always had a faint smile on his face.

"Don't worry about it. I'm on the way there too."

"On the way? The academic exchange is still ongoing?" Everleigh recalled what he told her the previous day. When he sent her back, he mentioned that he went to Jackson Hospital for academic exchange. "Yeah, our hospital is also collaborating with Jackson Hospital, so I'll have to stay there to give surgery guidance."

"Really?" Everleigh asked suspiciously, "Are you sure you didn't offend someone?"

Stainley chuckled, "Why do you say that?"

"Jackson Hospital is very remote, and it's hard to replace a restaurant to have a decent meal. If you didn't offend anyone, then why would you be transferred there?"

Everleigh was not lying. Jackson Hospital was located in the most remote suburbs of Ocpeace City, and they barely had any patients. Otherwise, the production team would not have chosen Jackson Hospital to shoot the drama.

"Stainley, you've always been an easy target because you're too soft. Sometimes, you shouldn't be too nice to others. If you accept all the jobs, they'll throw the dirty work at you. They will bully you for your kindness. Also, working in a hospital is not so different from working in a normal company."

Everleigh lectured Stainley on how society worked. She completely neglected the fact that she was in a similar situation too.

She was too careless, and people took advantage of it. Otherwise, she would not have ended up in a remote hospital.

On the way to the hospital, Stainley was mostly quiet. He focused on the road while listening to Everleigh nagging. Occasionally, he would chuckle and chip in. That was how they always interacted with each other.

The rain stopped, and the clouds were gone. Eventually, the scorching sun shone over the city, drying the damp ground. Everything was spotless, and there was no sign of there being a thunderstorm in the morning.

In the dining hall of a villa, Josephine Bailey took a sip of coffee, and the bitter taste made her frown.

Josephine's maid, Sarah Allen, immediately noticed that something was wrong. She turned to scold the servant who prepared the breakfast, "What are you doing? I taught you so many times about how much milk you should add, right? You forgot it again, didn't you?"

Upon being reprimanded, the new maid turned red and held her breath.

"Sarah," Josephine was indifferent as she continued, "It's just a cup of coffee, so there's no need to be so harsh. Just ask her to make another cup of coffee. You don't have to scare her." "Yes, Miss," Sarah replied politely and gave the maid a warning look. She hissed, "What are you waiting for?"

The maid thanked Josephine hurriedly, "Yes, I'll make a new cup of coffee right away. Thank you, Miss."

Sarah glanced at the maid before serving breakfast. "Miss, you're too nice. You pay them handsomely, so you should teach them a lesson if they do something wrong." "It's just a small matter, so it's okay to be nice to them."

There was a notification from Josephine's mobile phone. Sarah immediately kept quiet and continued to serve breakfast. Josephine checked her mobile phone, and her face darkened.

There was a loud clang, and she slammed her fork on the table.

Sarah turned to Josephine cautiously and asked, "Miss, what's wrong?"

The gentle look on Josephine's face vanished as she kept quiet.

Sarah followed her gaze and spotted the conversation on Josephine's mobile phone. Someone sent a few screenshots of a group chat, and there were a few photos as well. "This? Isn't this Godfrey Group? Who is the girl in Mr. Godfrey's arms?"

Upon hearing that, Josephine's eyes turned cold.

Evidently, the photo was taken in the lobby of Godfrey Group, and Theodore was walking into the elevator with a little girl in his arms. The photo spread like wildfire among the employees. Everyone in the company was busy gossiping about Theodore having kids.

"I underestimated her." Josephine clenched her fists, and her delicate face was dark. She hissed, "She didn't make a move, but she used kids to lure him, huh? Smart."

Sarah came to her senses. "Miss Trevino's children?"

Josephine did not reply, but her silence indicated that the statement was correct.

Before Selena's birthday party, Josephine sent someone to investigate Everleigh. She saw photos of the kids, and the boy was the spitting image of Theodore. That made Josephine panic, and she could not sleep for days. "Miss, what should we do?"

"What should we do?" Josephine gritted her teeth and scoffed, "We don't even know who the father is. Theodore would never acknowledge them without any proof. Even if he took them in, the Godfrey family would never approve of it." The Godfrey family?

At the mention of the Godfrey family, Josephine suddenly became confident. Her eyes flickered, and she instructed, "Sarah, go and get the oil painting I got from the auction last month."

Sarah was puzzled. "Miss, why would you need the painting?"

"Let's go to the Godfrey family." Josephine's eyes were dark as she continued, "I haven't seen Aunt Madison for a long time now. I'm their future daughter-in-law, so I should visit her often, right?"

...

Before leaving, the new maid brought a pot of freshly brewed coffee to the dining table and asked, "Miss, what about your coffee?"

Josephine was expressionless. Although she maintained her warm look, she instructed Sarah before getting in the car, "Fire her."

Sarah went blank for a moment, but she was not surprised. She nodded and replied, "Yes, Miss, I'll replace a replacement immediately."

Josephine nodded and closed the door before ordering the driver. The black Rolls-Royce drove off and sped into the city, heading towards the eastern district.

The rearview mirror reflected Josephine's gloomy face. She lowered her head and scrolled through the chat group. There were a lot of photos taken from various angles.

The kids stayed in Godfrey Group for an entire afternoon. Everleigh even had the audacity to say that she did not return for Theodore? Did she think that everyone else was a fool?

She exited the messaging app and dialed a number. Shortly after, the call was connected, and her face was grim, but her tone was gentle and warm. "Hello? Aunt Madison, it's me, Josephine."

...

"Oh, it's nothing. I haven't seen you in a while, so I wanted to have tea with you. I just bought a new painting too."
