Said I didn’t Love Him But I Lied

Caelan looked at Leon with a gloomy expression on his face. He couldn’t believe that this was his son. No matter how much of a playboy he used to be, he wouldn’t go against him. However, that day, he flipped over a table in front of him.

“You’ve gone too far. I’ve already announced it during the press conference. We have nothing to do with each other. Why do you always go after the Trevino family?” Leon shouted loudly all of a sudden.

It scared all the people in the room.

Theodore strode over and looked at Leon. He said coldly, “What are you doing here?”

“They’ve gone too far. I’ve been interested in this project for a long time. They used some tricks to purchase the company privately and caused the Trevino Group to suffer losses. Shouldn’t I ask them about it?” Leon retorted without looking back.

The anger in his eyes increased.

Theodore glanced at the two men sitting on the couch and chuckled. “Leon, there’s nothing in the law saying that you can mess around in someone else’s house. They have the right to call the police.”

His words were like a reminder to every one of them.

Hearing this, Caelan was stunned. He quickly took out his phone and was ready to call the police. “Yes, I almost forgot. Didn’t you just say that we have nothing to do with each other? You have trespassed on private property now. I bet you can’t afford to bear this accusation.”

Leon’s expression was cold. Just as he was about to say something, Theodore grabbed his arm.

Theodore nodded. “That’s true. You’d better call the police as soon as possible.”

Hearing his words, Leon’s jaw dropped. “What are you talking about?”

“Call the police. We don’t have anything to do with them but we have to call the police too. Didn’t you find out who laid their hands on Trevino Group? Let’s settle this altogether. By the way, let the people from the business department come over.” Theodore’s words caused everyone in the room to freeze in shock.

That was especially true for Caelan as he couldn’t believe what he had just heard.

“I… ”

“Uncle, my mother has passed away. According to the rules, the only bond between us has been broken and our relationship can’t go back to how it was like before. Uncle, you should know your limits. After all… Wilson is no longer in charge of Godfrey Group.” Theodore’s last sentence was like throwing a stone into a calm lake, causing waves and ripples.

Caelan’s expression in particular looked terrible, and his hand that wanted to dial the number, trembled.

He had forgotten the fact that it was Xavier who was now in charge of Godfrey Group.

Leon finally understood what Theodore meant and quickly took out his phone to call the police.

“Leon, what are you doing? He is your father,” Lorell shouted.

“We have nothing to do with each other. Don’t say such a thing. I don’t like listening to it,” he said, not intending to put down the phone in his hand.

However, she quickly pulled at him and said, “Leon, do you really want to send your father to prison?”

“It was all of you who wanted to destroy my life. We originally had nothing to do with each other, so why do you keep refusing to let the Trevino family off?” Leon looked at his mother, not feeling any pain in his heart.

This was the person who gave birth to him and raised him. How could he really abandon them?

However, what they had done was very shameful.

Theodore looked at the conflicted look in Leon’s eyes and then withdrew his gaze. “How about this? For my sake, take back the money you lost from the Trevino family. At least you have a way out for now. If you don’t agree with it, I don’t care what Leon is going to do. He’s now the son-in-law of the Trevino family. You should know this.” Theodore’s words were just out of respect for the Allen family. If Caelan didn’t agree, it could only be said that they were unlucky and had exposed themselves. He even let Leon have the chance to investigate the whole matter thoroughly.

There were no doubts that Caelan understood which was more important. However, Theodore’s help was just out of consideration for Madison. After all, blood was thicker than water. He really didn’t believe that Theodore would dare to make moves on him.

“Theodore, you are here because of your mother, right?”

“You’re wrong. It’s because Leon and I are the sons-in-law of the Trevino family. My mother did nothing for me when she was alive. It may be useful if you say this to Xavier, but it doesn’t have any effect on me. It only makes me feel even more disgusted.” Theodore’s cold voice revealed Caelan’s thoughts directly.

If he wanted to use familial affection to talk him out of it, then Theodore wasn’t having any of it.

When Caelan heard this, he really wanted to slap him. Madison was his mother after all. How could he be so impudent?

“That’s enough. I’m not here today to claim that we are relatives. I’m here to help my brother-in-law. I just have one thing to say; do you agree or not?” Theodore caught a glimpse of Caelan’s flustered and exasperated expression as he spoke in an indifferent tone.

Caelan was furious. Was there any choice he could make now?

“The money of Trevino Group will be transferred to the account tomorrow.”

“Good. I hope you can keep your promise. Of course, we’re not afraid that you’ll go back on your word.” Theodore’s words were infuriating.

Caelan stared at him with widened eyes. He couldn’t wait to tear a hole out of him.

“You… ”Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

“Then we’ll leave first,” Theodore said as he gave Leon a meaningful look. He understood and followed him out.

When they walked out of the door, they heard an angry voice coming from the room, but neither of them wanted to stop.

Inside the car, Theodore turned to look at Leon. “You can’t bear to do that, can you?”

“They were the ones who gave birth to me, after all. How can I be cruel enough to not care about them?”

“If you have such thoughts, I’d advise you not to stay in the Trevino family. You’ve also seen their attitude today. Would the Allen family really give up on the Trevino family?”

Theodore’s words made Leon’s heart feel as if it was being squeezed by something.

It was so painful that it made him suffocate.

Theodore knew that his cousin wasn’t in a good mood. He was also the same back in the past.

However, it was impossible for him to give up on Everleigh. He would rather go on like this. His parents and Leon’s were heartless anyway.

“Let’s go back.”

Theodore heard Leon and knew that he had made up his mind. He started the car and they headed out.

The next day, there was an extra sum of money banked into the Trevino family’s bank account, but Abraham did not say anything about it. On the contrary, Leon had an uncomfortable expression on his face.

“Leon, about this…”

“Dad, you don’t have to say anything. I know what’s going on. It’s good as long as we get the money. I’ll get back to work,” Leon interrupted him, got up, and went back to his work.

Abraham sighed helplessly, thinking that they should deal with their matters on their own.

Selena told Everleigh the whole story, looking a little upset. “Everleigh, do you think Theodore was the same at that time?”

Back then, he had also fallen out with the Godfrey family for Everleigh. Was that how he felt?

Everleigh shook her head. “I don’t know, but I know that the situation in the Godfrey family is worse than that of the Allen family.”
