Said I didn’t Love Him But I Lied

Hearing her answer, Christopher was surprised. There were no results?

How could it be possible? If there was no definite news, why would Elvir call her?

“Did something go wrong?”

Everleigh closed the medical record book, turned to look at him, and said, “Yeah something happened. I got the news that my aunt was the mastermind behind all this.”

Incredulous, his eyes widened. No way.

“Is that true?” He asked.

She took a deep breath, and there was confusion in her gaze. In fact, she didn’t know what to believe.

Even if it was true, she was not able to identify any flaw in her aunt’s disguise the previous day. Even though Theodore had also said something like that, she still had some sort of expectations for her aunt, hoping that she wasn’t the murderer.

However, on second thought, Pedro and Qusay had no reason to lie. Even if Qusay lied, Pedro would not do the same. After all, he was already a dying man.

Christopher saw that she did not speak for a long time, so he didn’t proceed to ask anything else. She had her own considerations about this matter, and there was no point in continuing to talk about it.

The day passed quickly. Everleigh was still feeling depressed. Seeing how restless she was, Erine couldn’t help but ask, “Everleigh, is there something wrong?”

“No, I’m just a little tired.” Everleigh gently smiled to cover up the worry on her face.From NôvelDrama.Org.

Erine could see that she didn’t want to talk about it, therefore she didn’t ask more.

“By the way, I heard that Alastair and Adrienne are going to perform, right? Can I go and watch?” Erine changed the subject and didn’t want her to worry about other things.

Everleigh smiled slightly. “Of course. Adrienne will definitely be very happy. She can’t wait for more people to watch her perform.”

“That’s great. Is it tomorrow?”

“Yes, tomorrow.” Everleigh was really helpless when talking about this. Adrienne was surely going to be a chatterbox for the whole night.

Sure enough, when Theodore and Everleigh returned to the Trevino family home, Adrienne was talking about seats for the performance. She had asked the principal to reserve a lot of seats for them.

Abraham was amazed. “Your mother wasn’t as scheming as you when she was young.”

“Grandpa, how could you say that? I’m not scheming. I’m doing this for your own good,” Adrienne retorted immediately. She wouldn’t allow anyone to talk about her mother that way.

Everleigh and Theodore looked at each other and exchanged smiles.

Abraham’s interest was also piqued. “Adrienne, you didn’t like what I said, did you?”

“Of course, Grandpa, would you still be smiling if I talk about your mother like that?” Adrienne said with a righteous look.

He was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed out loud. It seemed like that was the case.

“Adrienne, don’t talk like that.” Everleigh reminded her when she walked in.

Adrienne pouted and looked at her mother as if she had done something wrong.

Abraham waved his hand and said, “It’s alright. They’re just children. However, what she said was right.”

Everleigh glanced at her daughter and instructed, “Hurry up and apologize to your grandfather. Don’t ever be rude again, do you hear me.”

Adrienne did not dare to refute. She walked up to Abraham and said, “I’m sorry, Grandpa.”

“It’s okay, it’s okay. Adrienne, don’t be sad. It’s getting late now. Don’t you have to prepare for the performance tomorrow? Go back and have a rest.” He comforted her and didn’t want her to be sad.

She nodded with a smile. “Okay, Grandpa. You must also come tomorrow okay?”

“Don’t worry, I will definitely go.” he promised. He didn’t go the previous time, so he wouldn’t miss it this time.

Theodore and Everleigh were sitting on the sofa, but they did not see Leon or Selena.

“Where are they?”

Abraham knew who they were referring to. “They are working overtime in the company. There are too many things to deal with in Allen Group recently. If they don’t catch up quickly, many projects will be delayed.”

“I’m assuming that they can’t make it tomorrow?”

Abraham chuckled and said, “Selena also said that they don’t have the time, but they can come over and we can have lunch together tomorrow.”

“I’ll book a restaurant. Not only the Trevino family, but also the Jenkins family will be coming,” Theodore spoke up.

For the sake of his children, it was normal to treat them all to a meal.

Abraham didn’t say anything else and allowed them to make the decision themselves.

The next day, everyone gathered at the school’s main entrance. Abraham was the only one from the Trevino family. As for the Jenkins family, Alexander, Cecil, Saniogo, and Missha came for the performance.

Alastair and Adrienne noticed that there were a lot of them who were there for their performance. One felt helpless, while the other was excited.

“Uncle Alexander, Grand-Uncle, I’m glad you came to see my performance.” Adrienne held out her small skirt and she curtsied slightly, looking like a little princess.

Saniogo and Alexander laughed and said, “Well, we are here to support you and Alastair. Let’s go in quickly.”

“Okay!” Adrienne replied with a smile.

After that, they walked into the school.

At that time, a lot of parents had arrived at the school performance hall, and they were all sitting in their seats, waiting for the performance.

Everleigh sat next to Theodore and Cecil sat on her other side. Looking around, she found that both of her families took up a whole row.

“It seems that your daughter is really going to perform a big role.”

“Yes, she has been looking forward to it for a long time. I’m guessing she will become a star like Selena in the future.” Everleigh really had no idea where her daughter got all that confidence from.

Cecil laughed and said, “That’s interesting. Maybe you will be the mother of a star in the future.”

Everleigh didn’t mind. Adrienne could do anything as long as she liked it.

Theodore overheard the conversation between the two of them. He secretly wondered if he should sponsor a show for his daughter in the future. He wanted to fulfil his obligations as a father.

Soon, the curtain of the stage opened. The first performance was from the kindergarten children. The children wore red clothing and there were a few small flowers on their heads. They looked adorable.

Each class was performing and naturally, the performance order would be from the youngest to the eldest.

Soon, it was Adrienne and Alastair’s turn.

Several small animals walked over from below the stage. Adrienne and Alastair were performing as a little rabbit and a little lion respectively.

They were putting on a performance to show how to protect the small animals in the forest.

There were many lines from Adrienne, and they were narrations.

Some parents under the stage saw her performance and praised her.

Saniogo grinned from ear to ear. Listening to so many people praising Adrienne, as her elder, he felt very proud.

Cecil saw Saniogo smiling happily, then whispered to Everleigh, “Look at how happy they are.”

Everleigh knew what was going on without even looking at him.

Saniogo loved Adrienne and Alastair very much, so when he heard the audience compliment them, he would naturally feel very proud.

Missha, on the other hand, was sitting aside and thinking about something.

Everleigh also noticed her behavior.
