Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 182

Theodore's kiss was extremely violent. Even though Everleigh clenched her teeth, she couldn't resist his raging attack. The heartwrenching pain caused by his grip on her chin caused her to cry out in pain. In an instant, she collapsed into a state of despair.

The air quickly became thin. The more she struggled, the faster her energy was consumed. However, Theodore didn't show any mercy to her. The kiss, with a sense of warning and punishment, lasted so long that it made her suffocate.

After a long time, the shadow in front of her faded a little and there was a buzzing sound in her ear.

"Everleigh, listen, I don't just want you to draw a clear line from Yvonne. I also want you to draw a clear line from the Meyer family and draw a clear line from Christopher."

The man's thin and cold voice contained his remaining anger, and every word was slammed against Everleigh's eardrums with great force. There was no doubt about it.

Everleigh's back was wet with cold sweat. She leaned against the door to avoid falling down. Her chest was heaving violently and her rapid breathing made her almost unable to speak.

"On what... On what basis..."

"On what basis?" Theodore stared at her. "Are you really married to Christopher?"

There was no intention behind an inquiry of that assured tone. It was obvious that he already knew the answer in his heart.

Everleigh's heart skipped a beat and she suddenly stopped breathing. After a long while, she stammered and asked, "The people of the Meyer family all approved of it. How could it be fake?"

Her reaction, to Theodore, further verified his speculation. After a subtle expression was suppressed in his deep eyes, he let go of her.

"Really? Since you're married, why do you sleep in separate rooms?"

The previous night at the Meyer family's villa, while Everleigh was cooking in the kitchen, Theodore accompanied Adrienne upstairs to get something. Adrienne was talkative and she introduced the rooms to him along the way.

"This is Mommy's room. That's Christopher's room. Alastair and I are in this room..."

Adrienne's words were unintentional, but Theodore read his own meaning into it.

Theodore scanned Everleigh's face and saw how helpless she was. "Don't tell me that it's just a short quarrel between you two. It's not just at home. You guys never slept in the same room while you were abroad, right?"

Adrienne had exposed it all.

Children were naive and didn't know that in a real family, parents generally slept in the same room. Adrienne didn't even understand the fact that Everleigh and Christopher living together meant that they were married. Moreover, she was more accustomed to calling Christopher by his name instead of "Daddy".

Everleigh's mind went blank. She didn't know if the kiss just now had drained her strength, or if Theodore's question was too real that it caught her off guard. She didn't know what to say.

"Nothing to say?" Theodore stared at her, unwilling to let go of every single change in her expression.

"So what?" Everleigh clenched her fist and her eyes gradually turned cold. "What does my marriage have to do with you? What's the point of you saying this? Do you want me to get divorced and be with you?"

The word "divorce" echoed in the large office.

Theodore's expression tensed up suddenly.

Everleigh, however, had calmed down and pulled herself away from the door behind her. She stood up straight in front of Theodore and said with self-deprecation, "I know my place. No matter what, it's impossible for the president of the Godfrey Group to marry a woman who has been divorced with two children."

Even if Theodore had Everleigh in his heart, it was only an obsession of seven years, mixed with a little bit of self- pity. It was nothing compared to the pride of the Godfrey family.

"Please don't interfere in my affairs in the future."

With this sentence, she opened the door and forced herself to walk out.

"How do you know that it's impossible?"

The voice behind her was cold and powerful, which made her stop on the carpet. For a moment, she couldn't move, as if she was glued to the floor.

Until she heard some footsteps behind her, she released the handle of the door immediately and walked towards the elevator hurriedly. She didn't even look back along the way, and it seemed that she was in a hurry to escape from something.
