Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Chapter 59 Can't We Be Together If We Like Each Other? Alastair put down his binoculars and reluctantly squatted down to look at his sister. He said patiently, "I know you care about Mommy's love life, but that doesn't mean you should be reckless." "I'm not reckless!" Adrienne pursed her lips and said, "Alastair, you are always like this. You think I don't understand anything, but I think Daddy likes Mommy. Otherwise, why would he play with us?" "Do you know that Mommy and Theodore used to date?" Adrienne was stunned. "What? Mommy and Daddy used to date?" Alastair nodded. "But now they are separated. Do you know why?" Adrienne shook her head.

How could she know? She was not even aware that they were together.

Alastair sat down beside her and said, "It's complicated. You won't understand even if I explain it to you. In short, there are misunderstandings between them that you can't solve." "Is it very complicated?" Adrienne frowned and muttered, "Why do adults have so many complicated issues? Can't you be together if you like each other?" "That's why they're adults," Alastair said as he combed his sister's fringe on her forehead. "Do you want to eat ice cream?" Adrienne was still sulking with her brother, but when she heard "ice cream," she began to waver. After a while, she gritted her teeth and spat out a word spinelessly. "Yes." When Everleigh arrived home, her children were in the living room.

The brother was typing something on his laptop, while the sister was holding a tub of ice cream with a happy look on her face.

"Why are you eating ice cream? Alastair, didn't I ask you to watch her? If you eat too much, you will have a stomachache." Everleigh changed her shoes and went into the house. Adrienne's face was very cheeky. "I didn't eat a lot today. This was the first bite." "I don't believe you," Everleigh rolled her eyes at her and said, "You can have two more bites before putting the ice cream back into the fridge, or you won't get to eat it anymore tomorrow. I'll keep an eye on you at htomorrow." "Ah!" Adrienne blinked. "Mommy, are you not going to work tomorrow?" "Yes, I'm not going to work, and I won't be going for a while." When Alastair heard that Everleigh was not going to work, he immediately looked up from behind his laptop and saw the bandages around Everleigh's hand. He straightened up and asked, "Mommy, are you injured?" Adrienne stopped eating ice cream and followed her brother's gaze. As expected, she saw Everleigh's right hand with bandages. Her face changed at once. "Mommy, your hand." "I'm fine. I'm just injured. I'll be fine after resting for a few days." Everleigh did not care much about it. Anyway, she did not want to go back to that production project. She would rather stay at hthan deal with Selena causing trouble for her daily.

She made up her mind. If the hospital in the city was still not going to let her cback to work, she would apply to be transferred back to the hospital overseas and no longer consider staying in Ocpeace City.

"Mommy!" Adrienne put down the ice cream and ran towards her. She was not even wearing her slippers. When she ran to her, her eyes turned red. "Mommy, does it hurt?" Although this little girl always caused trouble for Everleigh, tears immediately streamed down her face the moment she saw that Everleigh was injured. She could not be coaxed.

Everleigh squatted down and said, "It doesn't hurt. Adrienne, don't cry. It's okay." "How can it not hurt?" Adrienne looked at her hand wrapped in bandages. She wanted to touch it but did not dare to. She burst into tears and said in between her sobs, "I don't like it here anymore. Let's go back to where we were. It's not good at all here."

"Adrienne." Many emotions surfaced, but Adrienne could not hear anything. Her eyes were focused on Everleigh's injured hand. She cried until she was breathless. She sobbed and ran into her room, pulling out her little bee suitcase and packing up her things.

"What are you doing, Adrienne?" Everleigh followed her to the bedroom and stood behind the little girl.

"Let's go." Adrienne threw clothes and toys into the suitcase while wiping her tears. "Mommy, let's not stay here. It's not good here at all. When we are here, Mommy is always unhappy. Auntie is also evil. Mommy is injured now..." "I'm thrilled." Everleigh was both touched and helpless. She grabbed Adrienne with her other hand. "Okay, Adrienne, stop it. I'm really fine." Adrienne rubbed her eyes and pursed her mouth, trying to suppress her anger. She was even out of breath. Everleigh held her in her arms and patted her on the back to help her breathe. "Our Adrienne is a good girl. I know you care about me, but I'm really fine. You're a good girl..." "When work here is done, Mommy will take you and Alastair back to Maniville." "We will go back to Maniville and live with Christopher." The little girl cried until she had no strength left and fell asleep in Everleigh's arms.

Everleigh placed her on the bed and covered her with the quilt. She saw Alastair was silently tidying the suitcase and the pile of messy clothes up.

"Alastair, don't tidy it anymore," Everleigh lowered her voice and waved at him, motioning him to talk outside. After closing the door, Everleigh breathed a sigh of relief, and the mother and son sat down on the sofa. Everleigh asked, "What's wrong with Adrienne today? Why was she throwing such a tantrum?" She had been injured before. Although the little girl was worried every time, she would not cry like this.

Alastair said, "Theodore just sent you back. Adrienne saw it and wanted to go downstairs, but I stopped her."

Hearing this, Everleigh's heart skipped a beat. Looking at her son's crystal clear eyes, she felt anO M inexplicable sense of guilt. She hurriedly explained, "He was visiting the production crew. I got injured, so he tookhome."

Alastair was not as nosy as his sister, so he did continue to ask. He did not even pay attention to what Everleigh said and continued the previous topic. "Adrienne has been bored at hfor too long. I think sending her to school might do her sgood." School? Thinking of this, Everleigh leaned on the sofa helplessly.

When she cback to the country, she had been in touch with a school. However, due to the children's nationality, they could not be enrolled in a public school, and the only option was a bilingual private school. The admission procedures were simple, but the fees were expensive. The school that Everleigh was eyeing cost two hundred thousand dollars annually. That would make a total of four hundred thousand dollars for two children. After returning to her room, Everleigh counted her savings and investments. She could raise four hundred thousand, but in that way, her expenses would be tight.

It was not a big issue that she remained unemployed. However, she still needed to support herself and her two children.
