Said I didn’t Love Him But I Lied

Everleigh looked happy on the surface, but she was not feeling the same inside.

The investigations had hit a dead end once again. What else could she say other than that she was unlucky?

Just as she was feeling disappointed, Elvir called and told her that Melissa was not behind it.

“Are you sure?”

“I’m sure. I also found that there were problems with Missha’s company. Everleigh, you’d better be mentally prepared. The outcome may be worse than what you thought,” he said in a serious tone.

She was shocked and speechless.

“Will you be in danger?”

“There must be danger, but for someone like me, it’s normal, isn’t it? Don’t worry, I’m a man who has experienced many ups and downs.”

Hearing what he said, she smiled. She knew that he was trying not to make her worried. He would be fine.

After getting along with each other for such a long time, she noticed that Elvir was not an indecisive and idle person. He still had a sense of justice.

Sure enough, one should not judge a book by its cover.

It was no wonder that Saniogo trusted him so much.

“Then you’d better be careful. Retreat if you sense any danger. There’s always a second chance.”

“I understand.” He hung up the phone after that.

Theodore listened to Everleigh’s call and asked, “What’s going on?”

“Elvir said that the person behind it is not Melissa. Also, there’s something wrong with Aunt Missha’s company. He’s investigating it now.”

His eyes darkened, but he quickly regained his composure.

“That’s good. You should get some rest. I’m going to the office.”

“Alright.” She felt a little embarrassed. Lately, he had been accompanying her and had not been doing his own work.

He kissed her forehead and left. He started the car and dialed a number.

At this time, Elvir had infiltrated Missha’s company and was drinking with several workers.

“You’re really something,” one of the workers said.

“This is common. It happens frequently where I come from.” Elvir had just helped someone from the finance department to sort out their accounts. That was how he found out about the financial problems.

It was also at this time that Missha’s secretary entered the room to get the accounting ledgers. She caught a glimpse of Elvir and he quickly lowered his head to hide his face.

Unexpectedly, the secretary had already seen him.

“Are the ledgers ready?”

“It’s all done. Look.” The man who had just drank with Elvir quickly handed the ledger to her.

It was already after working hours, so it was fine to have a drink.

The secretary took a look at the ledgers and then glanced at Elvir, who was sitting in the corner.Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

“Who is he?”

“He is my friend, as well as an employee of the company,” the man quickly answered. After all, the company had rules about not allowing outsiders to enter.

He could only lie and say that Elvir was an employee of the company.

Fortunately, Elvir was also wearing the company uniform, so it made sense.

The secretary nodded and left.

Elvir breathed a sigh of relief. He had managed to avoid trouble. What he did not expect was that when he was driving home at night, he realized how naïve he was.

He bought a second-hand car so that it was more convenient for him. On the way back, he realized that someone was following him.

He stepped on the accelerator and drove quickly. When he was about to get on the bridge, the other party caught up and ran into his car.

Elvir’s car shook and it hit the guardrail.

“D*mn it.” He would not simply wait for death, so he quickly turned the car around.

Only at this moment did he realize that the quality of the car was really important. He looked at the other party’s car and noticed that it was totally fine. As for his car, it was as if it was made of plastic and had a big dent.

He regretted it. If he had known this would happen, he would have bought a better car. If he got hit another time, it might even explode.

However… The other party noticed it as well and was about to run into Elvir’s car. Elvir turned the car around and drove into the guardrail, which caused an explosion.

The loud sound echoed in the air while debris fell into the river. The cars on the bridge quickly stopped. Everyone was frightened to see this happen. As for the person chasing after Elvir, his emotions did not change at all. He just took out his phone and dialed a number.

“It’s done.”

“Okay, proceed with the plan.” A sentence came from the other side of the phone.

“Okay.”

The next day, Jenkins Group issued a statement saying that someone had stolen the company’s funds. While escaping, there was a car accident. It was unknown whether the person was dead or alive. They even published Elvir’s photo.

At that moment, he was a wanted man.

The news soon spread back to the country. When Everleigh saw the news, she couldn’t believe it.

How could this happen?

Everleigh called him in a hurry, but no one answered.

No, he would not do such a thing.

Christopher saw the news and comforted her, “Don’t worry. I’ll ask Lincoln to go abroad to have a look. He’s familiar with the terrain there.”

Everleigh looked flustered. “Christopher, is he dead? I know he wouldn’t do such a thing.”

She believed in Elvir. He had earned a fortune by working for the Jenkins family for so many years. Why would he do such a dangerous thing?

She recalled what he had told her before, that there was something wrong with Missha’s company. Could it be that he had discovered something, which was why he was killed?

Christopher saw that she was in a panic, so he quickly comforted her, “Don’t overthink it. He is a smart person. Maybe he escaped from the explosion. Didn’t the news say that it’s unknown whether he is dead or alive? It’s possible that he’s still alive.”

He pretended to be relaxed as he spoke. However, it was pretty unlikely that he could survive an explosion.

Everleigh called Theodore. She hoped that he would send someone over as well. Theodore knew that she was worried. “Don’t panic. I’ll send someone with power and influence over.”

Otherwise, it would be hard for the person to get any intel.

After thinking over it for a long time, he had no choice but to call Talbot. He heard that he had gone away for a vacation these days.

It was convenient.

When Talbot received the call, he was a little surprised.

“It’s rare for you to call me. Is there something urgent?”

“I need you to help me find someone. I need to know if something has happened to him,” Theodore said in a serious tone.

Talbot frowned slightly and agreed.

Even after a few days, there was no clue at all. It was as if Elvir had disappeared without a trace.

As for Talbot, he had to come back early because of his work. He apologized to Theodore.

“It’s fine.”

“Theodore, I think it’s better if you don’t get involved in this matter. It looks like a serious matter between two parties.”

“That person is my friend. I can’t just ignore it.”

Talbot felt helpless, but he did not say anything else.

Theodore could do whatever he wanted.

Everleigh blamed herself for this matter. She had never thought that something would happen to Elvir. He was just fine before but now, his whereabouts were unknown.
