Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 86

Theodore frowned. The second Everleigh raised her hand, he had already taken a step forward. However, Josephine was still in his arms, so he could not stop her.

In truth, even if Josephine was not in his arms, he could not stop her too.

Everleigh's actions were too fast and she did not hesitate at all. Her decisiveness was still the same as ever. This was a part of her that had not changed at all.

After pouring cold water on herself, she left the restaurant without looking back. Even though she was in a mess, she still walked straight and upright. The people who were watching her felt that there would be nothing in this world that would make her bend her knees.

Theodore did not expect her to do this. Regret and pain flashed in his eyes.

He only wanted to anger her, to see her lose her temper, to see her blaming him, to see her flustered because of the troubles she had caused. He even wanted to see her lower her head to him.

However, nothing had gone right.

After a long time, a woman's soft and timid voice came from her, "Theodore, Everleigh must have misunderstood me. I really wanted to help her solve her children's school problems. It should be because of our relationship. She must have suspected me for having ulterior motives."

Theodore was deep in thoughts, and his dark eyes returned to their usual coldness.

"Don't you have other motives?"

His cold words contained a sense of alienation and Josephine's heart tightened. When she came back to her senses, he'd already let go of her.

"You invited the both of us to the same restaurant. Do not tell me it is a coincidence."

After leaving his warm and broad chest, the water on her felt colder when the cold air blew against her. When Josephine suddenly realized it, she got nervous, "Theodore..."

"Josephine, I don't like women who pretend they are smart." Before he left, Theodore gave her a look. He did not hesitate when he left.

Josephine stood where she was; her elegant hair and clothes were splashed by Everleigh and she looked terrible. She clenched her fist, her fingernails pricking her palms. She came back to her senses from the pain.

Of course she knew that Theodore would not be fooled so easily. She had not thought this through at all; her plan was full of loopholes. Anyone with a brain would know that she was deliberately waiting for the perfect time for Theodore to see this scene.

But did that matter at all?

Theodore did not like women who were too smart. He only let her stay beside him because she was obedient, right? Even if she occasionally made a ruckus, everything she did had to be within his control. That was enough.

She wanted Theodore to always be by her side so that she could always feel safe.

To Theodore, this was the biggest difference between her and Everleigh.

Dusk quietly fell; this was the peak hour of Ocpeace City. Business districts were filled with traffic as they usually were. Under the traffic lights were the scene of cars upon cars.

Everleigh's car was one of the many caught in the immense traffic. She played loud music inside her car and crazy rock music was roaring in her ears. Every drum beat from the music made her heart beat wildly.

She was trying to cut herself off from reality with the insanely loud music.

When the lights turned green, she drove through the heavy traffic and drove towards the highway. She stepped on the pedal and went way past the speed limit. She overtook a lot of cars and it even seemed like she was drifting. She drove crazily in the night.

After an unknown period of time, when she finally left the highway, her arms felt numb, and her legs were also limp and weak from stepping on the gas pedal. The car gradually slowed down and she drove back into the streets.
