Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 84

When the call ended, Josephine's wicked voice echoed inside Everleigh's ears. The woman was totally different from the one whom Everleigh had known seven years ago.

Everleigh soon received the address where she would meet up with Josephine. The place was a restaurant situated in the Westfield District.

Everleigh held her phone and stared at it for a while before driving away from the school gate.

On the way to the restaurant, the traffic lights changed. Everleigh's arm, which was holding the steering wheel, could not loosen up the entire time. Her back was also stiff, as if she was a person who had just learned to drive. She also failed to relax herself.

Had she not left Ocpeace City for seven years, she would never know that her best friend had feelings for her then boyfriend. The very same friend was the only person back then whom she had told about her relationship.

Everleigh felt uneasy even though she knew Josephine and Theodore started their relationship after she had broken up with Theodore because humans are selfish by nature. She found it hard to accept the fact that her best friend had now become her exboyfriend's lover. To her, this was treachery.

Half an hour later, Everleigh arrived at the restaurant.

The place was very high- class. Everleigh was greeted by a waiter at the main entrance and after she registered her name, she was led up towards a big dining hall situated on the second floor.

Josephine had already arrived.

She was dressed in yellow, looking through the window beside her table. Even from afar, she was brimming with elegance as she slowly sipped from her cup of tea. Her current posture revealed her profile and while it did not look anything out of ordinary, it was quite small. Men were quick to pity women whose faces were like hers.

The waiter pulled out a chair for Everleigh and said, "Please, take a look at the menu."

"Okay." Everleigh thanked the waiter before sitting down.

Josephine, whose attention was on something outside the window, finally turned her head to face her. She put down her cup before greeting Everleigh. She made it sound like they were just having a casual gathering of old friends when she said, "Oh, Everleigh, you're here! Was there any traffic just now?"

Everleigh's face froze and her eyes darkened. "Skip the pleasantries. Get to the point. What do you want?"

Josephine smiled, "Everleigh! You're as impatient as you used to be."

"Well, as least one of us has changed."

"No, I haven't. But if you really meant that, then it only shows that you never really knew me to begin with." Josephine scanned through the menu while retaining her air of elegance. "Isn't this our first meeting after you came back? Don't you want to chat with me? Or maybe you have things that you would like to ask me?"

"Really? Such as what? What do you think I'm going to ask you?"

"Hmm... How about the reason I'm with Theodore?" Josephine's eyes stopped looking at the menu and she shot a gaze at Everleigh, "Tell me, Everleigh. Do you hate me?"

Everleigh clenched her fists tightly, but her expression was indifferent. "Why should I? Theodore and I are no more and it's fair game. My breakup with him has nothing to do with you."

"Excellent." Josephine smiled again. "I thought you hated me and wanted to get back at me."

"What do you mean?"

Josephine pushed her phone on the table towards Everleigh. The phone was showing a photo and Everleigh's face froze the moment she saw it.

"Does this look familiar to you?" Josephine's voice sounded like she was hiding a knife behind each of her words.

Of course, Everleigh was familiar with the photo.

A week ago, Theodore had accompanied her and her children to the zoo. The photo was taken at the Panda World.
