Said I didn’t Love Him But I Lied

Everleigh noticed that she was eating well. For someone who had no idea what was going on, they might think that the food there was delicious. It was a pity that the restaurant did not make her the ambassador.

“Eat slowly.”

“I know. I wonder what happened this morning. There were so many people with broken bones,” Erine said with her mouth stuffed full.

She looked adorable.

Seeing this, Ysabelle laughed and said, “Erine, I really like how straightforward you are. Don’t you care about your image?”

Erine swallowed the food in her mouth and said, “Ysabelle, try starving yourself. Then, you will discover how amazing it is to eat like this.”

Ysabelle smiled and said nothing. It was actually nice to be able to not care about her image like this.

At this moment, Theodore and Maverick came over. Everleigh was a little surprised when she saw them. “Theodore, why are you here?”

He was surprised to see them as well. He looked startled for a moment, but the surprise on his face quickly disappeared.

“I’m here for business. I’ll come over once I’m done,” he said.

Everleigh nodded and then looked at the person behind him.

Ysabelle saw Maverick as well. Before she could say a word, he came over and sat beside her. “Didn’t you say you had a contract negotiation overseas? Why are you here?” He asked.

“Didn’t you say that you’re on a business trip? Why are you here?” Ysabelle asked as well.

Everyone there was smart. It was obvious that they were talking about something else. Felicia frowned slightly and asked, “Ysabelle, do you know him?”

When Maverick heard this, he put his arm around Ysabelle’s shoulder and said with a smile, “Hello, I am your future brother-in-law. Perhaps Ysabelle has never mentioned me.”

His words were like a sudden clap of thunder that struck everyone’s head.

That was the case especially for Erine. This man who was once about to marry her was actually together with Ysabelle. What was going on?

It was not only them; even Theodore was shocked. Since when did this brat get together with someone from the Meyer family? More importantly, he had no idea at all.

Ysabelle looked at the shocked expression on their faces and sighed softly. “What’s wrong with your expressions? I didn’t do anything wrong.”

“That’s right. We’re sincere towards each other.” Maverick’s teasing tone was not sincere at all.

Everleigh was the first one to come to her senses. She let out an awkward laugh and said, “Then… Since we all know each other, let’s sit down and eat together.”

“Sure.” Maverick picked up Ysabelle’s spoon and started eating. She, on the other hand, looked like she was used to this already.

Felicia glanced at her sister, who seemed like she did not care. That showed that they had been together for quite some time.

This time around, her parents could finally feel at ease. All three of their children had found someone to spend the rest of their lives with.

“Erine, it’s good that you’re here. Talk to your father. He insists on us getting married, but I have already rejected him many times,” Maverick looked at her, who was surprised, and spoke.

He always emphasized that he was not interested in the people of the Harrison family. She did not know how to react to this.

Erine smiled bitterly and said, “Mr. Laneigh, if I had the ability, I wouldn’t be in this situation today. The Laneigh family is a capable family. Why can’t you even handle such a small thing?”

Maverick raised his head and glanced at her. His face darkened slightly, but he did not say anything.

Everleigh and Theodore were outsiders in this matter. After all, it was between Erine, Maverick, and Ysabelle.

That complicated relationship was really beyond everyone’s imagination.

After the meal, Maverick said to Erine and the others, “Thank you for the treat, Miss Trevino. I’ll definitely return the favor one day.”

“That’s very kind of you, Mr. Laneigh.”

“Don’t mention it. Miss Trevino, I’ll have to trouble you in a few days. After all, I’m almost a member of the Meyer family. Ysabelle, am I right?”

Ysabelle did not like his frivolous attitude, but for some reason it suited him really well. If he was to speak to her in a serious tone one day, she might not be used to it.

After they went their own ways, Everleigh asked Theodore in horror, “What the hell is going on? Why did you come here with Maverick? And… How did Ysabelle end up being his girlfriend?” She was really shocked. It was really beyond her imagination.

He chuckled when he heard her asking the three questions in one go. “Everleigh, why do you care so much about other people’s matters?”

“Ysabelle treats me well… How is Maverick as a person? How is his family? Does he have a complicated background? Will she live a happy life if she marries him? What about his marriage with Erine?” She asked again.

Erine felt that Everleigh was a little too worried. “In fact, Maverick has a good temper. When I was abroad, I did not hear anything bad about him. Everleigh, you’re overreacting.”

Theodore nodded and agreed very much with her words. “If you are worried, you might as well be concerned about me.”

Everleigh smiled awkwardly. She was overreacting, wasn’t she?

Ysabelle and Maverick’s characters complemented each other. One was lively and talkative while the other was mature and collected.

They were indeed a match made in heaven.

News of Ysabelle having a boyfriend spread among the Meyer family in an instant. They quickly asked about who he was.

Felicia answered the question on Ysabelle’s behalf. When they heard that it was someone from the Laneigh family, they all fell silent all of a sudden.

“Ysabelle, you don’t have to sacrifice your whole life for Erine’s sake.” Vanessa tried to persuade her.

Hearing this, Ysabelle laughed and replied, “Mom, what are you talking about? I’m with him not because of Erine. Besides, I didn’t have to meddle in her case. Mom, we only got together after spending a lot of time together. It’s not what you think.”

Hearing that, all of them were relieved.

Now that Ysabelle had a boyfriend, they were all overjoyed. “When will you bring him home?”

“Mom, you don’t have to worry. I think he will be coming tomorrow. Just wait.” Ysabelle was not worried that he would not come. She was worried that he would come now.

Hearing that, Vanessa nodded and said, “Then, I’ll need to make some arrangements. We should be ready for a feast.”

At this time, Maverick and Theodore were together. They were supposed to talk about the share purchase from before. Now that Wilson was gone and wanted, Theodore had to reclaim the shares.

Maverick signed all the documents and handed them to him.

“I’ve signed them all.”
