Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Chapter 322 Find Out What Illness She Has Alastair's eyebrows furrowed. He felt that Everleigh was acting a little differently that day, and wondered if something had happened to her. "Mommy, why do you have so much free time?" "I'm not going back to work anymore and will be spending more twith you two at home. If I'm not here anymore in the future, remember to spend more twith your grandpa, alright? Also, Grandpa likes it quiet..." Everleigh instructed the two of them.

Adrienne and Alastair both felt that Everleigh was acting strange that day for saying these words out of the blue. "Mommy, is there something you're hiding from us?" Alastair's tone sounded steady like an adult.

"No, that's not it. I'm just trying to tell you how to treat your grandpa and your Aunt Selena well. They treat you so well so you should repay them with love." She answered in a very natural way. She knew that Alastair was very smart and was not easy to fool.

He nodded, still suspicious, and did not ask anymore questions.

When they returned hin the evening, Alastair and Adrienne went to rest as they looked forward to going to the zoo the next day.

"Dad, I bought a massage machine for your feet. Hilda said that you've been complaining about your sore feet." Everleigh carried the machine with great effort, with a smile on her face.

Abraham saw her struggling to carry the machine and quickly grabbed it over to place it aside. "Your hands have not healed yet." "I'm fine. I just carried it inside. I also bought quite a few things for you, all with my own money. Consider them gifts from your daughter." She had never bought anything for him. She didn't think that she would until she thought about herself dying. This time, she was going to make up for her loss of so many years.

"What are you doing? I don't lack any of these things," he said as he watched the maids carry in many bags of items into the house.

"I just saw what I liked and bought them. Dad, you've done so much these few years. I have been a bad daughter to you and I've done so many horrible things. I wasn't even by your side when you were admitted into the hospital." "It is all in the past now, so there's no point talking about it." He felt his heart ache as he listened to her words. Everleigh lifted the corner of her lips slightly as she felt a sting in her eyes. She kept quiet, then turned around and instructed the maids to carry all the bags into her father's room.

She also prepared a gift for Selena and placed it in her room. It was a token of appreciation for her sister. "What are you doing here?" "You're back just in time. I got you a new dress; csee if it fits you. I remember you saying that you liked this brand worn by this model, so I got it custom made for you from overseas." Selena looked at the gift box on the bed, frowning with doubt. "What are your intentions? Are you going to persuadeto leave Leon?" "No, I just thought that I had never given you a gift, so I bought it." "Why are you acting so kind?" Selena mumbled as she opened the gift. It was a long dress in a pastel mint color. It was the sone worn by that model.

Her eyes becmuch softer, but she still refused to admit defeat. "Finally, you think about gettinga gift. What took you so long?" "I guess I've lost my mind. Is this what you mean?" Everleigh said sarcastically.

Selena laughed as she was amused by Everleigh's words. She tried to hide her smile but she didn't manage to. "You're right, that's what I meant," she replied.

Everleigh saw her laughing and felt that it was worth it. She thought that her children would be in good hands once she was gone in the future.

Theodore sat in the study going through documents. Moses called and told him that he tried to send the items to Everleigh that day but she wasn't home. "Where did she go?" "She went to the hospital and had lunch with her children in the afternoon. Then, she went shopping for a lot of things." Moses felt that she was acting strange. Although it was normal for women to like shopping, she had overdone it this time. It was as if she was buying a whole life worth of items.

Theodore was deep in thought. "Do you know why she went to the hospital?" "I'm not sure about that but she fainted in the hospital." "Fainted? How come?" Theodore's tone becanxious as he heard that she had passed out.

He was afraid that something bad might have happened to her.

Moses quickly explained, "I don't know. All I heard was the nurse saying that she fainted due to shortness of breath, and it wasn't a big deal." Theodore felt much more at ease after hearing his words. However, he was still worried. "Go and find out the reason she fainted. Shortness of breath could be one of the symptoms." "Yes, I'll go investigate now." When Theodore hung up the phone, he fell deep in his thoughts. His gut told him that something bad was about to happen.

He stood up and walked in front of the window. A gust of cold wind blew through the open window. He raised his head to look at the cloudy sky and noticed a few flashes of lightning. It seemed as if it was going to rain heavily.

His mood felt like the sky; it was suffocating him to the point where he couldn't breathe. He felt as if something ominous was about to happen.

"Everleigh, I really hope that nothing happens to you," he said as he gazed at the dark sky.

Suddenly, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. Raindrops fell, hitting the window. His heart was in a state of turmoil.

It was said that the sun after the rain was particularly hot, and there were raindrops on the leaves. The raindrops were crystal clear under the bright sunlight. Everleigh opened the window and smelled the scent of soil; it was refreshing.

Just a heads up: is the only place to read the complete version of this book for free. Don't miss out on the next chapter-visit us now and continue your journey! She looked at the scenery in the distance with a bitter smile. She didn't know how long she could enjoy such sunshine and scenery.

She changed her clothes and got ready to bring Alastair and Adrienne to the zoo.

She walked down the stairs and saw Selena in a casual outfit as she refilled Alastair and astair and Admenne's Water bottles. It seemed that she was going to go to the zoo with them. "Mommy, Aunt Selena said she is going to the zoo with us." "Sure." Everleigh was glad; she wanted to speak with her too.

It was the weekend, and the zoo was crowded with people. Everleigh and ox Selena brought the kids somewhere with lesser people; they went to see the giraffe. "Mommy, look! The giraffe is so tall!" Adrienne looked up as the sun shone in her eyes.

Selena reached out her hand to cover her eyes and said with a smile, "Look again." "Wow, I can see it clearly now." After looking at a few different animals, Alastair and Adrienne were worn out. They found a bench and sat down. "Selena, are you thirsty? I'll go get us swater," Everleigh said as she stood up to get water. Selena didn't answer her.

They sat down at the side as they watched Alastair and Adrienne play.

"Selena, I may have to trouble you more with the kids in the future," Everleigh said all of a sudden.

Selena frowned and glanced at her. "What are you talking about? What do you mean? Trouble me? Aren't you their parent?" "I'll be very busy in the future and I may trouble you more," Everleigh said softly in a sad tone.

Selena felt that something was wrong and asked, "Are you in ssort of trouble?"

"No, I'm not. You know how busy doctors can get. I've brought them m out while I'm recovering from my NO injury. I may need you to do this forin the future," she said bitterly, as she tried to hide her emotions.
