Said I didn’t Love Him But I Lied

When Leon heard Theodore’s words, he was certain about Abraham’s opinions of him. In other words, Abraham understood his situation. “I’ll take care of my parents. Why have I been so licentious for so many years? Do they not realize at all? They raised me to be their puppet, but I won’t let them have their way.”

Theodore poured himself a glass of liquor and took a sip. His deep eyes were dim under the light.

The two just sat there and drank silently.

At dawn, Leon went back to the Allen family home. Caelan and Lorell were having their breakfast at the dining table. When they saw him,  they ignored him completely.

Leon went straight to them and threw a document down in front of them. “This is a legal agreement to cut off ties between us. From today onwards, I am no longer a member of the Allen family.”

Caelan’s eyes were filled with shock when he heard these words. He slammed his hand on the table angrily and shouted, “Ridiculous! Do you even know what you’re saying right now?”

“Didn’t you clearly hear what I said?”

Lorell was incensed as well. She pointed at Leon with trembling fingers and said, “You… You unfilial son. How dare you treat us like this just for a woman?”

“And how do you treat me? Do you think that I don’t know? What was the agreement between Allen Group and Godfrey Group? Do you really think I have not the tiniest clue about it?” Leon looked at them indifferently, and the gaze in his eyes was as cold as ice.

Caelan’s face was stiff. “You… When did you find out about it?”

“Do you think that I was only having fun during my time in the company? Even Theodore knows about it, so how secretive do you think you were when you did that?” Leon sneered.

Looking at them, he felt like a fool. Allen Group had always relied on Godfrey Group, but they didn’t pay attention to who was in charge. Wilson had not been in the company at the beginning, and it was Madison who had taken care of everything, so the Allen family could get whatever they wanted.

Caelan’s face darkened, and he sat on the chair in a daze.

“I might as well tell you directly that you will be sucked clean by Wilson. You’d better keep this agreement. From today onwards, everything revolving around the Allen family has not a thing to do with me. I will hold a press conference to announce this.” After saying this, Leon turned around and left.

“Stop right there,” Caelan shouted. He had done so much for Leon, but he repaid him by leaving the Allen family.

Leon sneered. “Stop? What do you think you can change now? How long more do you think you can control me?”

“We are doing this for your own good. How can you be so ungrateful?” Lorell couldn’t help but admonish him. She couldn’t believe what her son had done.

Leon looked at them coldly, but remained silent. Then, he turned around and walked away.

No matter what they said, he would not be moved. He would not care about such a family anymore.

No matter how Caelan and Lorell shouted behind him, he didn’t show any signs of hesitation. He strode out to where Theodore was sitting.

Leon had lost everything. The cars, houses, and the money; they all belonged to the Allen family. In order to separate himself from them, he had gone to obtain a notarization. Everything had been recorded on papers.

“Where are you going?”

“To the Trevino family.” Leon was alone. He gave up everything to be with Selena. If she wouldn’t forgive him, he would really end up with nothing.

Theodore gave him a meaningful look and drove in another direction. Leon saw that they were not heading for the Trevino family home. “What are you doing?”

“You should wait until you have declared everything to the reporters. Otherwise, even if you go to the Trevino family, you won’t be able to explain things clearly. It’s better to wait until everything is settled before going over to them.”

Leon lowered his eyes and said nothing.

On the other hand, Alexander was dealing with other issues, and found out about Wilson’s situation.

“Wasn’t Godfrey Group restricted? Why do they still have funds to invest in such a big project?” Looking at the name of the cooperative partners, he became more and more suspicious of what Wilson had done.

The secretary was silent for a moment and said, “Godfrey Group was initially not involved in this project, but no one knows why Wilson decided to participate in it.”

“Investigate his funds for me. I feel that something is not right,” Alexander asked in a deep voice.

Previously, Wilson had taken out so much money to make an investment, but had already lost all of it. Even if Godfrey Group currently had the money, they would not be able to make such a big investment.

“Yes, I will send someone to investigate it now,” the secretary said and went out.

Alexander thought about it for a long time, but decided to call Theodore. He thought that Theodore know something about this matter.Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.

However, Theodore didn’t answer the phone. The reason was because Leon was about to hold a press conference. He followed him to observe the situation.

As soon as the news came out, everyone was shocked. Everleigh also stumbled upon the news. She was so stunned that she dropped her cutlery. She realized that this was the result of Theodore’s doing.

Previously, Leon had mentioned cutting off ties with the Allen family. Still, he hadn’t taken any actions until the press conference was held.

Everleigh came to her senses and called her sister to take a look at the news. At that moment, Selena was lying in bed at home and didn’t want to listen to anything.

Hearing the phone ring, Selena looked at the caller ID with her red and swollen eyes. After a long hesitation, she picked up and said in a hoarse voice, “Everleigh.”

“Selena, watch the news. Now.” Everleigh knew what was going on when she heard her voice, but it was not the right time to talk about it.

Selena was puzzled, but still picked up the phone and turned to watch the news. Leon stood in the middle and announced that he was about to leave Allen Group and that he was no longer a member of the Allen family. The agreement was also given to Caelan and Lorell. As for the reason, he did not clarify it to the reporters.

Selena’s eyes widened. “How could this happen?”

“It’s all for you. Think about it. Do you want to be with him? He abandoned all his wealth and luxury just to be with you.” Everleigh had witnessed Leon’s sincerity and understood that love was priceless.

Upon hearing this, Selena’s sadness dissipated and she was touched by what she’d witnessed.

“He is…”

“He will come to our house later. It’s up to you. If you don’t want him, he will really have nowhere to go.” After saying that, Everleigh hung up the phone.

She wanted her to contemplate carefully.

After Everleigh hung up, Alexander called her.

“Everleigh.”

“Alexander, is there anything I can help you with?”

“Yes, is Theodore with you?” He asked in a serious tone.

Hearing this, she frowned and asked, “No, what happened?”

“It’s about the Godfrey family. Wilson has a lot of money in his hands, and I don’t know where he’s getting them from. I’m concerned, so I thought to ask Theodore if he knows anything.”

Her expression froze. Theodore probably didn’t know about this. Ever since he returned, he had been dealing with his own company’s matters. He didn’t have the time to care about anyone else.

“I’ll call Theodore right away and ask him.”

“Alright. I’ll hold off on approving this project and wait for an answer.”
