Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Chapter 57 Everleigh Is Not Coming Here Anymore? Theodore's words startled Everleigh. Her eyes and brows dropped as she instantly avoided his gaze. "No." Although it sounded simple, the denial was not very convincing. "It's not?" "Of course not." Everleigh pursed her lips and raised her head after a second of hesitation. "Why are you asking so many questions? It doesn't matter why I left seven years ago. You're getting married soon, and I have my own career. We both live separate lives now and no one's holding each other back." That was just how the world worked. Life goes on even when someone leaves your life. There was no need to dwell on the past.

Theodore's eyes turned cold, and he said, with emphasis on each word, "No one's holding each other back?" Everleigh's heart jolted. When she noticed the anger in the man's eyes, her face becstiff. She wanted to say something to explain but then decided against it. She remained silent.

Both of them knew that it was pointless to reminisce about the past. Seven years was simply too long. How many seven years would they have in this lifetime? Even if the incident seven years ago was just a misunderstanding, why would it matter now? Why would they want to disturb the stable lives they currently had now? The atmosphere in the emergency room ward was freezing. Everleigh was left breathless under Theodore's cold gaze. A tight pressure was squeezing her chest.

Finally, the doctor cback and gave her a shot. "Okay, you're fine now. Remember not to use this hand when you go back. Don't expose it to water, and you have to apply medication on it daily." "Yes, I know." Everleigh was a doctor herself. Needless to say, she was also very clear about the doctor's reminder.

As they left the hospital, Theodore walked over and stopped in front of her.

"Well," Everleigh hesitated for a while and said, "I'll go back to the crew first. You should have something to do. Thank you for today." Theodore did not bother to turn his head as he said coldly, "Pack up your things. See you at the garage in ten minutes." The instructions left Everleigh stunned. Before she could say anything, Theodore had already left. Was Theodore trying to tell her that he was driving her home? Everleigh greeted the crew members when she returned. She grabbed her bag and left the place.

The crew members were embarrassed that their female lead was the cause of Everleigh's injury. Selena's assistant rushed towards her just before she left the place, "Dr. Trevino, I'm really sorry for what happened today! Selena didn't mean it. Please don't take it to heart!" "She probably doesn't even care, right? I mean, if I take it to the heart or not." "How is that possible?" Selena's assistant, Crystal, smiled apologetically. She looked around to make sure no one was around her, lowered her voice, and said, "I don't know about the others, but Selena is your own sister. How could she possibly want to harm you?" Everleigh was indifferent.

In the past, she would have thought the sway. Selena was her sister. No matter how far her sister went, she was simply throwing a tantrum. It was like when her sister had taken her toy when they were kids. She would never have any resentment in her heart.

However, recent events showed her otherwise.

Her sister grew up and had her own way of thinking. They had not met each other for seven years and did not get along now. She did not even bother to question the reason behind their fallout. Now that things had developed into an unsalvageable situation, she finally decided to give up on her sister.

"Don't worry." Everleigh looked at Crystal. "I won't tell anyone about what happened today." Selena asked her assistant to look for Everleigh in such a hurry. It was not because she felt apologetic, but the fact that she was a public figure. Part of her was afraid what had happened earlier that day would leak to the public, attracting negative news towards her.

People becmore ambitious and transactional as they grew up. They had motives behind everything they did.

She decided to drop the facade and said, "Very well then, thank you very much, Dr. Trevino. I apologize to you on Selena's behalf. I'm really sorry. I'll make sure to compensate you for your loss." "No, there's no need for that." Everleigh reluctantly pulled the corners of her lips and said, "I have to go now." "Okay, then." After Everleigh left, Crystal took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. Then, she turned and went back to Selena's dressing room.

The supporting lead was doing a scene outside of the studio. Since Selena had finished all her scenes for the day, she was removing her makeup and changing in the dressing room. She was just about to remove her ear studs when Crystal cinto the room.

Selena casually said, "I was looking for you. Helpcheck if my pierced ears are having an allergic reaction." "Letsee." The assistant walked over and lowered her head towards Selena's ears.

"Where have you been? I didn't see you around much today." "Oh, Dr. Trevino cback from the emergency room. I went over to have a look." When Crystal mentioned Everleigh, Selena was startled, and she pretended to ask nonchalantly, "How's her hand?" "It was wrapped in bandages. It looked pretty serious. I think there are stitches." Selena's face darkened a little, and there was an ounce of regret in her eyes.

The assistant went on, "But you don't have to worry about her. Winnie askedto go talk to her." "What?" Selena looked up all of a sudden. In that moment of surprise, she unintentionally pulled her head backward and yanked her ear. She immediately gasped in pain.

The assistant was shocked. "Are you okay?" Planning your weekend reading? Ensure you're on 000005sfor uninterrupted enjoyment. The next chapter is just a click away, exclusively available on our site. Happy reading! Selena covered her ears and looked extremely pale. "What did Winnie ask you to tell Everleigh?"

Winnie was Selena's talent manager, and also a gold class manager of the media company Selena was currently signed to. She had countless A-list and B-list artists under her belt, and she was always cutthroat. In fact, she could be ridiculously cutthroat. Selena found this trait of hers unbearable at times. "Winnie askedto tell Dr. Trevino to keep today's events to herself." "Who let you make the call?" Selena's sudden high-pitched voice scared the assistant.

"Who are you two to intervene?" Selena's face turned blue. "Will she listen to you if you run to find her?" "But... but Dr. Trevino agreed."

"She agreed?" Selena was stunned for a second. Then her face returned to normal. She gnashed her teeth and said, "Of course she did. She pretended to be high and mighty growing up and didn't fight withfor anything. But in the end, everything went to her. Now, she has something on me. She can do whatever she wants now." The assistant said cautiously, "Selena, I don't think Dr. Trevino has any hidden agenda. Maybe you're thinking too much?" "Me? Thinking too much?" Selena slammed her hand on the table. "Whose assistant are you? Why are you helping her when I am the one who pays your salary? Why don't you go work for her instead?"

The assistant immediately shook her head like a rattle. She thought to herself that she really wanted to be Dr. Trevino's assistant. At least that lady was even-tempered. However, professionalism stopped her from doing so. "Just wait. She will certainly use this incident to blackmail me, just like this morning." Seeing Selena's indignant face, the assistant kept silent for a long tbefore reminding her carefully, "But Dr. Trevino asked the crew to make sarrangements. She probably won't chere ever again." "What?" Selena was stunned and looked at her assistant in surprise.

"Everleigh is not coming here anymore?"
