Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Abraham was no fool; he knew what had happened to her.

"Do you know what Selena is doing?"

"I heard she got into a new play and is at the stage of filming," Everleigh replied, not wanting to tell him about Selena's situation. He frowned and asked, "Does she have a boyfriend?"

She raised her head; she didn't know how to answer his question. Selena came over and happened to hear this question.

"Yes, I have a boyfriend and he's a scriptwriter. Dad, I'll take you to see him when I have time."

He turned around and asked, "A scriptwriter? Can he afford to support you financially?"

"Dad, his family does business in transportation. It's just that he wants to chase after his own dream," she explained.

Hearing this, Everleigh was a little surprised, "Have you met his family?"

"Well, I've seen them, but not in a formal meeting," Selena replied with a slightly distressed and aggrieved look in her eyes.

Everleigh frowned. What kind of expression was that? Weren't people in love supposed to be happy? Why was she looking like this now?

Abraham also noticed her expression and let out a soft sigh. "As long as you're happy," he said.

The corners of Selena's mouth twitched as she tried to suppress the sadness in her heart.

They no longer asked any more questions.

Everleigh called Theodore to ask if he knew anything about Jorben's family. Right at the moment when he asked her what was going on, he immediately understood before she could give him an explanation. "Wait, I'll look into it right now," he said. Then, he hung up the phone.

At the same time, he called Leon. He should have the right to know about this matter. After all... He had also invested in Selena's new play.

He said it was for the sake of profit, but everyone knew that he did it for her.

It didn't matter how much money he had to spend. As long as he could support her, he was willing to do it.

After Leon knew about it, he conducted a full-fledged investigation and found out that Selena was treated poorly when she met Jorben's mother.

Leon passed on the information to Everleigh right away because he didn't want to be involved anymore.

After finished reading, Everleigh asked Selena, "What does Jorben's family think of you?"

"Why are you asking about this? I'm marrying Jorben, not his family." It's obvious that Selena did not want to answer that question.

Seeing her reaction, Everleigh was sure that the members of Pratt family were not nice to her.

"Selena, there is no use pretending to be happy. Why do you have to mistreat yourself if you aren't happy? You are already a grown up woman. Can't you differentiate who is good and who is bad to you? When I left, you were angry with me for so many years; that's how proud and arrogant you are. Why can't you be more considerate towards yourself when it comes to your own happiness?"

Selena lowered her eyes and didn't know what to say.

Everleigh patted her on the shoulder and said, "Selena, think about it. This will only happen once in your life. I don't want you to have any regrets." After saying that, she got up and left.

She had already spoken her mind. Whatever decision Selena planned to make, it was up to her.

After Everleigh left, Selena burst into tears, not knowing whether it was because of herself or her sister's words.

At the hospital, Everleigh was going through with her usual routine, and Christopher looked for her in a hurry.

"Everleigh."

"What's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry?"

"Derick sent a message," he said solemnly; his face looked cold.

Her face darkened. She asked, "Where is he?"

"He was taken away. When our people arrived, they happened to bump into Wilson's men. There was no one in the house at all. It's as if he had disappeared."

"Where could he be?" She did not believe that a person could disappear into thin air. Someone must have been there, or he must've found something wrong and ran away.

He shook his head. He didn't know either. He had sent someone to investigate, but instead they found out that Wilson had discovered new clues.

This was really a headache for them.

Why was this old man so difficult to deal with?

"Is it true that his life or death is uncertain now?" She asked.

"Yes, but I think he is more likely to be alive. I was at the scene, but I did not find any evidence of a fight. Everything looked normal. The only explanation is that he either ran away or was taken away by someone," he analyzed carefully. Other than the two parties, there was no third party involved.

"Are you still going to continue looking?" She asked.

He lowered his head solemnly. "As long as he isn't dead, we must find him and even if he's dead, we must find his corpse too."

She was silent and wondered if there was someone else who wanted to find him.

She was troubled for a while.

At the same time, Wilson was also facing some problems. He said to his secretary, "Find him, you group of good-for-nothings. Whether he's dead or alive, I have to see his body."

"Yes, I'll send people to look for him now." Seeing that he was about to be furious, the secretary found an excuse to leave.

When he opened the door, Yvonne was standing there.

"Madam."

"Is Wilson home?" She didn't care about how she was addressed. She just came over to ask why he still refused to sign the papers.

"Yes Madam, please," The secretary gestured, indicating that she could go in.

When she entered, she saw Wilson sitting alone on the sofa, taking a big sip of wine with a gloomy face.

It was obvious that he was furious.

When he saw her, he was a little surprised. "Why are you here?"

"I'm here to ask you what I should do for you to sign the document."

"As I said, I won't divorce you. Just forget it!" He couldn't help but yell at her.

None of his matters were going smoothly and Yvonne was there to make things even more difficult for him.

Was this the same Yvonne whom he knew before?

She stood opposite him; her narrow eyes were full of coldness. She sneered, "Do you actually think we can still go on as if nothing happened?"

"Why not?"

"If it was in the past, I would've moved on with you. For the sake of my children, I could put up with it, but I cannot tolerate it when you take advantage of their lives to achieve your own purposes." Despite her accusation, Wilson didn't feel guilty at all. Anyone would do anything to achieve their own goals, and it was the same for him. Why was it that other people could, but he couldn't? "Yvonne, that's enough. I was forced to do so."

She sneered. These words were such a good excuse. He put his children's lives at risk and he could still say that he was forced to do so.

Did she look that gullible?

"Wilson, you've let me see a whole new side of you. After so many years, I can't believe I never knew how ruthless you are." She could barely suppress the anger boiling in her heart.

She didn't know how to put up with this man she had loved for so many years.

He raised his head and looked into her eyes. "Yvonne, it's been so many years, and you still don't know what kind of person I am?"

"It's all because I know you too well, that's why we ended up like this. Wilson, you should just sign it quickly. I don't want to waste my time on you," she said as she took out the document and put it on the table. He picked it up and tore it up right away.
