Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

X Chapter 46 Never Going Back to Your Ex Madison's words felt like a basin of cold water was being splashed over Everleigh's head. Until today, she could still remember the cup of cold water that Madison had splashed on her face at the cafe opposite her university. Everleigh clenched her fist and turned around with a sneer. "Mrs. Godfrey, since you know everything so well, you should have known that the Trevino family droveout. Now that the Trevino family has nothing to do with me, why should I care about what you said?" "You don't even care about your father?" "My father no longer recognizesas his daughter. Your words don't mean anything to me." Madison almost could not believe her ears. "I can't believe Theodore fell for such an unfilial daughter like you!" Everleigh remained calm as if nothing could affect her. "Mrs. Godfrey, I'm not interested in your son at all. You don't have to threatenin any way. A sensible person will not repeat a life that's been lived before. I understand this concept well enough." Leaving these words for her to ponder on, she left the parking lot without looking back.

It was not until the elevator doors closed that Everleigh grabbed onto the handle for support. Her face suddenly turned pale, and her lips were white.

She knew very well what kind of person Mrs. Godfrey was.

Seven years ago, to force Theodore hand inherit the Godfrey Group, she went straight to their college to humiliate her. At that time, she endured it because she was Theodore's mother. Back then, she was telling her to break up with Theodore, which was something that would never happen.

It was also because of this that Mrs. Godfrey despised her. Until now, she still did.

Everleigh left the parking lot and did not return to the production crew. She called the crew to take a day off, took a bus back to the city, and closed the door as soon as she got home.

In the living room, Adrienne was squatting in front of the refrigerator to get ice cream. When she saw Everleigh cback out of the blue, she was scared to death, but Everleigh went straight into the house, not noticing her. She exchanged a look with her brother.

"Alastair, why is Mommy back so early?" "I don't know." Alastair's delicate eyebrows were slightly furrowed. He looked at the closed door and said thoughtfully, "Mommy seems to be in a bad mood." Adrienne put the ice cream back into the refrigerator silently. "Then I won't eat ice cream anymore." "It's not because of you." "Then, why?" "It should be work. Mommy seems to be very tired recently. Adrienne, be a good girl and don't go out often. Don't bother Mommy." Adrienne sighed deeply like an adult and said, "Well, I want to make Mommy happy." After that, she looked at the door thoughtfully, and her dark round eyes sparkled like the stars.

In the bedroom, Everleigh laid down on her pillow. She felt like her mind was in a mess in one second, then completely blank in another.

Mrs. Godfrey was only a small part of the reason for her break up with Theodore that year. She was a negligible factor.

Back then, she was still young and naive, and she felt that love could conquer all. Since she and Theodore were in love, she thought nothing could cbetween them, not even Mrs. Godfrey.

So even if the cup of water was splashed on her face, and even though Mrs. Godfrey had humiliated her in such a way, she was still determined not to break up with him.

Where was her courage now? She seemed to have lost it.

She did not know how long she had been lying like that before she heard the sound of the door opening gently. When Everleigh opened her eyes, she saw Adrienne, with two ponytails, holding a packet of gummy candies in her hand, looking at her.

"Mommy," Adrienne's voice was very soft. "Do you want scandy?" As she spoke, she took out a piece of pink candy from the wrapper and put it close to Everleigh's mouth. "It's a peach flavor. Here you go." Everleigh reached out and caressed Adrienne's forehead. "You can have it, Adrienne. Mommy's a little tired and wants to sleep for a bit. Why don't you go out and play with your brother?" "If you're not going to eat it, then I won't either." Adrienne pouted and stubbornly held the candy out to her, staring fearlessly.

Everleigh had no choice but to open her mouth and ate the candy. Her daughter was as headstrong as her. "Hehe," Adrienne laughed and stuffed one into her mouth. "Alastair said that you're unhappy. If you're happy, you should eat candy. Candy will make you happy." "There's actually no logic to this." Everleigh nodded. Out of habit, her mind tried to analyze the scientific relationship between candy and happiness. "In fact, it's more psychological..." Looking at Adrienne's round little face staring at her intently, Everleigh swallowed the words that were about to cout of her mouth.

Forget it. What WAS the point of explaining so much to a child? She would not understand.

The gummy candy was soft and chewy, and the taste of peach melted in her mouth. The sugar from the candy could cause the body to secrete more dopamine, and dopamine was a source of happiness for the body. That explanation was actually reasonable.

Adrienne was still leaning against the bed. She ate a piece of candy and put another one into Everleigh's mouth. She muttered, "Mommy, if you're not happy, then don't work." Everleigh smiled and said, "How am I supposed to support myself if I don't work? How will I buy candy for you? Don't you want to eat more ice cream?"

Adrienne tilted her head and thought seriously. "We can go back to Maniville. As long as Uncle Christopher is there, he'll buyas much ice cream as I want. He can support you too." "Adrienne, who taught you all this?" Everleigh poked her forehead. "You'd better not watch those s anymore. A girl has to fight for what she wants. We can't rely on others, do you understand?" "Then, can't you rely on Daddy?" Everleigh was stunned. For a moment, she did not know how to answer Adrienne's question, and her face turned dark.

"Adrienne, why did you cin and disturb Mommy?" Alastair's voice sounded from the door. It was not harsh, but it sounded a little bit helpless.

Adrienne stretched her neck and looked at the door. Then she immediately raised the candy in her hand and said, "Alastair, I'm giving scandy to Mommy. Now she feels better." Alastair had no choice but to say, "Okay, you've given her the candy. You should cout now."

"Okay." Adrienne usually listened to Alastair's words. She could also tell feelingchen that Everleigh was not feeling her best, so she did not want to disturb En her anymore. Before leaving, she said, "Mommy, I want to eat the noodles you cooked. Can we have that at night?" Everleigh was slightly stunned. Nobody knew better than herself how bad her noodles tasted.

The little girl was trying to find ways to comfort her.

"Sure, I just need to rest for a while. Then, we'll go out to the supermarket to buy sgroceries to make dinner." "Okay, let's pinky promise." "Okay, pinky promise." After the pinky promise, Adrienne left Everleigh's room reluctantly.

Before closing the door behind Adrienne, Alastair said, "Mommy Christopher called in the afternoon •NC and said that he couldn't reach you, so he asked you to call him back when you were free." The content is n novelenglish.net! Read the latest hapter there!
