Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Without waiting for her to speak, she had already hung up the call before Everleigh could ask her when she would be back. "Forget it, let's talk about it later." She thought.

On the day of the family dinner, Alastair and Adrienne were dressing up in the room. Alastair was dressed simply in a tuxedo as he sat and played with his phone, Adrienne on the other hand was dressed up in a ball gown like a princess, and she even put on a tiara. She looked extra adorable with her cheeks as red as an apple.

"Mommy, do you think I look nice today?" Adrienne said while turning around, looking lovely.

Meanwhile, Everleigh wore a white strapless dress and the style was very simple. Even so, the look suited her quite well and it made her look like a fairy of some sort. Her smile was warm and she looked at her children lovingly. "Mommy, you're very beautiful today. I will wear clothes like yours when I grow up." Adrienne reached out her hand to touch Everleigh's clothes, and her eyes were filled with envy.

Truth be told, Everleigh was looking forward to the day that her daughter would become all grown up.

By then, she would probably be an old lady already.

"Well, let's go. Let's not keep the others waiting." Everleigh stretched out and held their hands in hers while walking out.

When they made their appearance, everyone cast their gaze at Everleigh who looked ethereal. The two children by her side gave off an air of handsome charm, and bustling excitement respectively. They all looked very good together. Abraham, who was standing below, saw this, and the corners of his mouth curved into a smile. The others also followed suit.

"Abraham, you are so lucky that you have such beautiful grandchildren, I'm so jealous."

"Yes, I don't know when my children will give me grandchildren of my own."

"Ah, we don't have that kind of luck."

There was a hint of a smile on Abraham's face as everyone spoke.

He also loved his two grandchildren from the bottom of his heart.

At this time, Christopher, his parents, and Felicia appeared by the door.

"Mr. Trevino." Vanessa came in and greeted Abraham, and the smile on her face did not diminish.

Abraham also walked over to greet her, saying politely, "Mrs. Meyer."

"Oh, not Mrs. Meyer, you can just call me Vanessa. We are a family, no?" Vanessa was very dissatisfied with the way he addressed her.

On the other hand, Abraham was also a little embarrassed. Wasn't this marriage fake? He did not want people to think that he was deliberately trying to take advantage of the Meyers, who were also one of the four main families of Ocpeace City.

"It's a slip of the tongue. Come and have a seat. We're all family." Abraham made a gesture of invitation and pointed at the sofa on the side.

Christopher had already gone to find Everleigh. Alastair and Adrienne both decided to play with him when they saw him coming over.

On the other hand, Felicia was sitting beside her parents in a proper manner. Her status was different, so she needed to be on her best behavior. When Selena came downstairs, she saw that everyone was having fun without her and she didn't like the idea of it.

It was the same in the past and nothing had changed. Was she so easily forgotten?

Then, she walked to Everleigh's side where Christopher, Alastair, and Adrienne were.

"Everleigh Trevino."

"Hmm?" She looked up at Selena, who had dissatisfaction written all over it. Hence, she was a little confused. "What's wrong with you?" "What's with you now? Inviting the Meyers. I thought it was a fake marriage?" Selena's voice was not loud, but Everleigh heard it clearly.

This was nothing to be proud of, and Selena couldn't be as shameless as Everleigh.

"What do you mean?"

"I mean, how many men do you want to marry? Theodore claims that he is the father of the children, but now the Meyer family says that you are wed to them. How many men are you marrying? I feel embarrassed when our relatives ask about you," Selena said with anger on her face.

Obviously, she was still unhappy with Everleigh.

Adrienne was puzzled to see such a scene. "Auntie, what's the matter with you?"

"Alastair and Adrienne, go sit with your grandpa." Selena didn't want the children to hear anything bad.

The children viewed the world very purely, and she didn't want to destroy it.

Alastair and Adrienne didn't want to leave, but Everleigh asked them, "Do you know where Grandma and Grandpa are? Have you forgotten how much they love you guys?"

Alastair's IQ was much higher than that of Adrienne's, so he frowned slightly and asked in a cold voice, "Mommy, is Auntie going to bully you?"

"No, why would she bully your mommy? I'm still here, aren't I?" Christopher answered, winking his eyes with a hint of playfulness.

Alastair trusted Christopher very much. Although he was a lascivious man, he would never allow others to hurt his mommy. Thinking of this, he reached out and took Adrienne's hand, saying, "Let's go find Grandpa and Grandma." Adrienne didn't know what was going on, but she followed him anyway.

Meanwhile, Mrs. Meyer had a huge grin on her face when she saw them and it was clear how much she loved them.

"Well Selena, let's settle the score." Christopher turned his head and said. He didn't have a playful look on his face, and his eyes were cold and stern.

She was shocked. "What are you doing? What score do I have with you?"

"No? Then what do you mean by saying such things? What do you mean by saying that your sister is married to many men? She is my lawful wife, making her a member of the Meyer family. Theodore's just spouting nonsense as he doesn't know the truth." Christopher looked at her with a face full of disdain.

Then, Everleigh secretly pulled at his hand and asked him to be polite.

She knew that Selena was not mean but she just thought that Everleigh took away the spotlight that belonged to her.

This came to her mind just a while ago. When Selena entered the room, no one had noticed her.

She had also said that because of her, Selena did not get the attention that she deserved in the Trevino family.

Alas, Christopher continued to stare at her as if he didn't feel it at all.

Selena looked at him with a gloomy face, and the disgust in her eyes was not hidden at all. "You're only good with words. You are notorious when it comes to having affairs. Who'd think that you would marry Everleigh?" "Who are you to question it? Your father didn't say anything, so why are you so upset here?" He snorted coldly and revealed his casual look again.

In the eyes of outsiders, it was like a joke between a brother-in-law and his sister-in-law, which annoyed her.

Thus, Selena couldn't rebuke him and pointed at him in exasperation. She couldn't even utter a single word for a long time. "You..."

"What did you say? I do have a name. According to seniority, you should be more polite to your brother-in-law. Don't always bully your sister." "In your dreams!"

"Stop it." Everleigh felt that the atmosphere was looking a little dour, so she quickly interrupted him.

He curled his lips and said, "I shall not argue with my sister-in-law for your sake."

"Who is your sister-in-law? You're so shameless." Selena was so angry that her expression soured. "This shameless man."
