Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

After Everleigh saw Hansen enter the bathroom, she went to the vending machine to buy two bottles of water. She found a bench opposite the bathroom to wait. Then Christopher called.

"Everything is going fine. There are many people in the amusement park, but few queuing up for the rides that Hansen can go on. I think I will be back early in the afternoon."

There was also the sound of water on the other end of the phone and of children playing. Christopher went to the swimming pool with the two children that day as it was his off day. "You've turned from a private doctor to a nanny." "Am I not half a nanny just by being a private doctor? However, Yvonne's two children are quite sensible, so it's not difficult to babysit them."

"Are you crazy? That girl, Loraine, is sensible?"

Christopher still remembered his experience of getting beaten up in the hospital. Everleigh thought of this, laughed a little, and said, "Why are you, a grown adult, being so petty with a child?"

When it came to Loraine, Christopher felt dissatisfied. "By the way, I forgot to ask you."

"What is it?"

"Don't you think you're taking a detour from your ultimate objective by approaching Yvonne? Why don't you take this opportunity to resign from this job?"

Everleigh frowned and said carefully, "I've already signed the contract. The penalty is very high if I breach the contract."

Working at the city hospital was not easy, and there were also classes every weekend. With her becoming Yvonne's private doctor, she was really busy, but she could not resign. She could not afford to pay the high penalty fees. "I'll pay. From now on, you can repay me by becoming my slave."

"No thanks."

Everleigh deliberately rejected him. She raised her arm and glanced at her watch. She wondered why Hansen wasn't out after a long time and then she cast a glance at the entrance of the men's bathroom. Right then, at the corridor of the President's office of Godfrey Group, a figure hurriedly walked past the administration desk. The secretary, June's greeting was ignored. "Knock, knock, knock."

"Come in."

Theodore stood behind his desk with both hands on the desk. His white shirt sleeves were rolled up to his elbows. He bent forward slightly to look at the fire control construction drawings of the mall on his desk that was sent by the construction department.

"Mr. Godfrey." The person who entered was his assistant, Moses.

"Great, I was just looking for you. There are a lot of problems with these fire control construction drawings. Call the project team for a meeting."

"Okay, I'll inform them later." Moses looked a little anxious. "But Mr. Godfrey, I have news that I think I should relay to you."

"What's the matter?" Theodore was still staring at the fire control construction drawings. He held the pencil in his hand and circled the problematic areas.

"Madam Madison's men sent to follow Dr. Trevino were suddenly replaced by another group of people today."

Suddenly, the tip of the pencil in Theodore's hand snapped and there were carbon shavings on the drawing. He raised his head to look at Moses, and his eyes narrowed. "She sent people to follow her?"

Moses' face was pale and cold sweat dripped down his neck. He gritted his teeth and explained, "Because Madam Madison only sent people to follow Dr. Trevino. She told me that as long as she was not in contact with you, there was no need to report to her. Therefore, I took the liberty to not tell you since I thought that Madam Madison would not take any action."

It was difficult to be playing for both sides. It was not easy to make a living these days. He tried his best to mitigate the relationship between his boss and his boss' mother. Who wouldn't want to protect themselves? Theodore's expression darkened even further. "Then why are you telling it to me now?"

"Because..." Moses clenched his fists nervously and confessed. "Madam Madison changed the people whom she had sent to follow Everleigh earlier and changed them with a group of people who had nothing to do with the Godfrey family. I checked and found out that they are criminals. They have just been released from the Hayeast Jail half a year ago. I'm afraid that Madam Madison is..."

Theodore's face turned cold when he heard this. "Where is she now?"

"Eastlake Amusement Park."

...

Everleigh waited at the entrance of the bathroom for a long time, but there was no sign of Hansen. It had been almost half an hour so she looked for an amusement park staff member to help go in and take a look. "Evie." In the distance, Loraine came back from finishing the ride. She ran to her, excited. "Where is Hansen?"

"He went to the bathroom."

"Oh, it's fine. Evie, the roller coaster is really exciting. You should ride it with me later."

"Hansen can't go on that ride. Let's do it next time," Everleigh said. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a figure at the entrance of the bathroom. He was a medium-build man who wore a black short-sleeved shirt. There was also a tattoo of a tiger on his arm. He was carrying a child, who was covered with a blue cartoon cloak in his arms, and they were heading to the parking lot.

Just as she was lost in thought, she heard Loraine's voice beside her.

"Alright." Loraine looked regretful. She used her hand to block the sun. "What is taking Hansen so long?"

"I've already sent someone in to take a look."

Hansen was not physically well. She initially thought that it would not be a big deal for him to go to the bathroom on his own. However, after so long, Everleigh was starting to get worried.

While she spoke with Lorraine, the staff member came out of the bathroom.

Everleigh stepped forward and asked, "Hi, is everything alright? Is the child okay?"

The staff member asked doubtfully, "Are you sure the child was in there? I knocked on each door but there was no child."

"What?" Everleigh was stunned, "How is that possible?"

"There really isn't."

Everleigh's heart tightened. She had a bad feeling.

"Hey, madam, that's the men's bathroom!"

"Evie..."

Everleigh and Loraine went into the men's bathroom, one after the other.

Gasps were heard from the bathroom. The men standing at the urinals covered their crotches. Everleigh went straight to the cubicles, knocked on each door, and shouted, "Hansen..."

...

"Hansen, are you in there?"

...

All the doors in the cubicles were open, but Hansen was nowhere to be seen.

"Evie!" Loraine's face turned pale.

Somehow, perhaps by intuition, Everleigh suddenly thought of the strange figure she saw exiting the bathroom. The man held the cloak-covered child in his arms and he did not look like a parent.

Her intuition told her that Hansen had been abducted.

"Loraine, go to the surveillance room," Everleigh said quickly. "There's security cameras everywhere in the amusement park. Also, by any means, block the entrance and exit of the park immediately and then call the police." "Evie, where are you going?"

"I'm going to chase after those two people."

"Which two people?" A look of panic and confusion flashed across Loraine's face. "Evie, did Hansen get kidnapped?"

Everleigh had no time to explain. She urged, "Loraine, I need you to stay calm. Remember, do these three things: Go to the surveillance room and keep an eye on all the people that went in and out of the bathroom during this half an hour, call the police, and call your mother. Hansen will be fine."

Loraine nodded. "Okay."

Everleigh waited at the entrance of the bathroom. She did not dare to go far because of Hansen's poor physical condition. All the children that came out of the bathroom were walking on their own. Only the tattooed man held the child in his arms and he seemed to glance at her a bit.

Right then, she was certain that the child was Hansen.

However, it would be too late if she waited for the police.

Everleigh left Loraine, who was still in shock and chased after the two men without a second thought. They were heading to the parking lot.
