Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 103

The Meyer family's birthday banquet was held majestically. They booked the entire Mountain Hotel. Although most of the guests wouldn't stay for the night, they had arranged rooms for every guest to rest in.

Theodore drank quite a bit and was helped to the hotel room by the staff. Josephine stayed in the banquet hall as she needed to inform the Meyer family before they left.

Theodore usually had a better alcohol tolerance, but for some reason, even though he did not drink much, he felt that his steps were a little weak and his vision, a little blurry. Now that he had taken two steps, the scent of alcohol was rising up from his stomach.

After lying on the hotel bed with his eyes closed for a while, he took out his phone from his pocket and dialed a number. He rubbed his forehead, "Ten minutes later, ask the driver to drive the car to the entrance of the hotel..."

Moses' voice came from the other end of the line. "Yes."

After hanging up, Theodore's eyes were still closed, but the scene of Everleigh being surrounded by the Meyer family in the banquet hall was still lingering in front of him.

He had made countless speculations, but he never thought that she was married.

Perhaps it was because of the effect of alcohol, but Theodore's usual calm and rational nature had completely vanished. It was impossible for him to suppress the wild emotions spreading in his heart as if they were poisoned vines crawling into his heart, filling him with darkness.

He felt his body heating up for no reason, and his gradually sinking emotions fell into a dream woven by memories.

"Theodore, let's break up. We won't meet again in the future."

Seven years ago, in the summer, under the shades of the camphor tree in Jaquel East Street in Ocpeace City, Everleigh had said those words to him with a cold face.

Before this sentence, they had been in a cold war for more than a month. This was the longest time they had ever been in a cold war since they got together. However, he had just started working after graduating at that time. He was too busy even to take a sip of water, and he didn't notice that there was something wrong with Everleigh.

At that time, he thought she was just making a little fuss as usual. It was not until the company's newcomer training was over that he finally realized that during the whole month of training, Everleigh didn't once look for him.

A man who had been in a relationship for a long time would know the bottom line of his girlfriend. If he stepped across a certain threshold, he would upset his girlfriend, and throw himself into an endless pit.

Back then, Theodore was no exception. When he realized that something wasn't right, he immediately called Everleigh on the phone and rushed over to wait below her house.

"Sorry, the number you had dialed has not been answered for the time being. Please call again later."

After the perfect English accent, there was a string of fluent foreign translations. Theodore listened to it several times in the past month. Because he was busy with work, he didn't pay much attention to it. After a month, he finally realized that something was wrong.

He waited for three days at the Trevino family's residence and called Everleigh countless times. Finally, three days later, Everleigh came out of the house and said to him, "Let's break up."

What she said was concise and comprehensive. Each word could be heard clearly; she was indifferent and mechanical.

Although dreams were said to be a reflection of the reality, it was more about people's subjective speculations and personal decorations.

In Theodore's dream, Everleigh's face was always full of loneliness and pride. This was the image that Theodore had given her in the past seven years. Every time there was a dream of the past, the pain would be deepened.

Seven years ago, in the face of a sudden breakup, Theodore, at the age of 22, did not realize the severity of the matter. They were both hot- tempered people and they usually quarreled with each other. When things were heated, saying the words "break up" was a common thing.

"Stop making a fuss, Everleigh. I'll accompany you on a trip after I'm free these days. Things are too busy at the company."

"I'm not making a fuss. It has nothing to do with you. It's my problem."

Everleigh looked at him and said clearly, "I have fallen for someone else."
