Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Luqman was basically a useless man. He seemed fearless whenever he acted or spoke, but it was a pity that he was brainless. Yeezoo, on the other hand, was smart, but he was just too lecherous to succeed in anything. Missha sighed softly. "If they at least have some ability, I wouldn't have to work so hard. I'm all on my own and there's no one I can rely on."

"Since it's so hard for you, why don't you find someone to share the burden with?" Everleigh asked in confusion.

Missha raised her eyebrows. She clearly knew what she meant. "Are you trying to ask me why I'm not married yet?"

Everleigh felt a little awkward. "Um, not really."

Missha pouted and said, "I haven't met someone whom I really love, and I don't want to simply accept a man to be with me for the rest of my life." After saying that, there was a dash of sorrow in her eyes. Although it was very light, Everleigh could still sense it.

All those stories and emotions were giving her a headache. Although Missha looked pretty relaxed from the outside, there seemed to be a lot of things hidden in her heart. Sometimes, feelings that were expressed by accident were the most genuine ones.

Everleigh had a strong feeling that there was someone special in Missha's heart.

"You've been tired for the whole day. Let's talk again tomorrow." Missha realized that something was wrong, so she turned her head and pretended as nothing had happened. "Okay. Good night, Aunt Missha."

After Missha left the room, Everleigh laid on her bed to rest.

Her mind was filled with Missha's expressions, which lingered in her head for a long time.

The next day, Everleigh woke up early in the morning and went straight to the hospital.

Saniogo ordered someone to wake her up, but the servant told him that she had already left.

"Is she so busy everyday?" Missha asked.

"Yeah, there are a lot of people who have to undergo surgeries," he replied. He then instructed the servants to send breakfast to her at the hospital. "You really care for her, don't you?" She smiled.

He gave her a deep, meaningful look and said, "Her life is really hard. As her uncle, I feel guilty about it. Hence, it would be good if I can make it up to her." She had heard a lot about Everleigh, but she wasn't really clear with all the details. She hadn't had the chance to ask her about it.

Cynthia came in and greeted her sweetly, "Aunt Missha."

"Oh Cynthia, you're here. Come over and have a seat," Missha beckoned her and said.

When Cynthia walked in, he noticed that Saniogo wasn't in a good mood. She hadn't forgotten that she was previously chased out of the house by him. "You two take your time, I'll head to the company first."

"Okay, take care, Saniogo," Missha said those words naturally, which reminded him of the past.

He also remembered that Missha had said such words when Welment left, though her tone was completely different.

He turned around and glanced at her, then strode away.

Cynthia and Missha didn't feel like something wasn't right, so they sat on the sofa and continued chatting.

"Aunt Missha, did you sleep well last night?"

"Yes, it's indeed comfortable to be at home. Don't you need to go to work today?" Missha looked at Cynthia with her lovely eyes. She remembered that she was working in Jenkins Group.

Cynthia felt her head hurting as soon as they talked about work. "Aunt Missha, do you know what Uncle Saniogo did to me? He gave me a low-ranking position! I graduated from a prestigious overseas university, so I deserve to get a high position. And yet, I'm working as a basic staff member."

The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt.

It was fortunate that Missha was back. Cynthia could get everything she wanted in the future.

When Missha heard it, she squinted at her. "Cynthia, what contributions have you made for the company? Did you sign a huge deal?"

"Other people might have to do it to get promoted, but I'm part of the family, so I don't have to do it, do I?" Cynthia shrugged her shoulders, and her tone was full of dissatisfaction.

Missha looked at the spoiled princess in front of her; she was really much worse compared to Everleigh. "Cynthia, if you want to reach a higher level in the company, you must have some achievements, otherwise, the other employees will look down on you."

Cynthia was very displeased. Everyone gave her the same advice. Did the company really belong to the Jenkins family? She pondered.

Missha understood that Cynthia was unhappy. However, if she wanted to have a high position in Jenkins Group, she had to produce great results. Otherwise, she would fail miserably.

When Cynthia looked at Missha, she noticed that she was getting disgruntled. She quickly added, "Aunt Missha, you know that I have been spoiled. There's a lot of things that I haven't considered. I must learn a lot from you in the future." Missha felt better to hear those words.

"By the way, have you seen Yasmine?" Cynthia changed the topic; it was the main purpose of her visit.

"Yes. Yasmine is much more determined than you. You really have to learn from her."

"Yes, she is indeed capable, but there are some things that I shouldn't learn, right? For example, getting pregnant before getting married. Aunt Missha, no one knows about it yet, but if everyone finds out, she will really struggle in this circle." As Cynthia spoke, she observed Missha's expression carefully.

Sure enough, Missha's face turned grim after she heard that Everleigh got pregnant before she was married.

"Is it true?"

"Of course it is. She even brought her children here last time. Uncle Saniogo knows about it too. Aunt, why is she still part of the Jenkins family after committing such an immoral act? I don't know why Uncle Saniogo can still accept her in the family. If I could make the decision, I would definitely disown her. Also, we can't even confirm if that woman really belongs to our family. Who knows, she might be here for money..." Cynthia sounded respectful to Everleigh at first, but as she continued, she really expressed her hatred and disgust towards her.

She even changed from calling her 'Yasmine' to calling her 'that woman'.

Missha's expression became extremely vexed, and her eyes darkened. Her whole body was letting off a chilly feeling.

"Aunt Missha..." Cynthia noticed the change in her expression and called out cautiously.

Missha got up furiously. "Cynthia, Saniogo is a respectable man. How can he possibly be blind? I can see what kind of person Everleigh is. There must be a reason behind her unexpected pregnancy. As for you, at such a young age, how dare you to try and cause division within the family? It seems like you're not only spoiled, but you're totally evil!"

"Aunt..."

"Cynthia, please go back now. I don't want to see you. Come back and see me again after you have repented. Or else, it doesn't even matter if Everleigh is a part of our family or not, I'll make sure that you are no longer a member of the Jenkins family!" Missha scolded.

Cynthia choked back everything that she wanted to say.

She originally wanted to show Missha Everleigh's true colors, but she became the one who was being scolded. Unbelievable.

She left reluctantly. Then, the butler shook his head helplessly and said, "Miss Missha, you're still the most reasonable woman here."

Missha looked at him and replied helplessly, "Yeezoo has really failed in educating his own daughter. Such a child will never achieve great things even in the Jenkins family. This person can never be in charge of the family."

The butler nodded in agreement. Although he wasn't a member of the Jenkins family, he had seen through everyone and everything in the family after so many years.

He was disappointed with Cynthia too.

Missha sighed softly and didn't speak anymore. She turned around and headed back to her room. She really wanted to ask Everleigh about her two children.

Everleigh didn't go to the hospital, but went to Theodore's house instead. She could hear Adrienne's laughter even before she entered the house. She couldn't help but smile. "What are you guys talking about?"
