Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied -
Chapter 140 Repeat The Same Mistakes Again
Early the next morning, Theodore was woken up by someone. "Sir, sir, wake up."
Theodore heard an unfamiliar male voice, opened his eyes and saw an unfamiliar face. He immediately sat up but due to his hangover, his head felt like it had been split open in an instant as he got up too quickly.
He held his head and said in a hoarse voice, "Why am I here?"
The man who stood next to him was somewhat impatient. "You're asking me? This is the staff's dormitory in the city hospital. Did you drink too much last night and came to the wrong place?" "City hospital?"
The man in front of him wore a white coat and the badge on his chest showed that he was Quinn Carter, an intern in the hospital. From the moment he woke up, Quinn showed an impatient attitude and wanted to send Theodore away. As Quinn walked in front of him in his white coat, Theodore's mind went blank for a moment. He suddenly remembered the previous night...
"Where is Everleigh?" He suddenly looked up and asked Quinn.
Quinn was taken aback by the question. "Do you know Dr. Trevino?"
"Where is she?"
Quinn came to his senses and said with a frown, "Dr. Trevino is on leave this morning so she's not in the hospital now. Wait, where are you going? Sir, your clothes..."
Before Quinn could finish his words, Theodore went out of the temporary dormitory and went straight to Everleigh's office.
The door of the office was locked. When he called her mobile number, there was only an automated female voice repeating, "Sorry, the number that you dialed is temporarily unavailable. Please call again later." Everything that happened the night before played clearly in his mind at that moment, and every detail was extremely vivid. He was a hundred percent sure that it was not a dream and that it had really happened. "Theodore?" A male voice came from behind him.
Christopher was in a white coat. His figure was especially tall and charismatic among the four trainees. He held a few case folders in his hand. He looked at Theodore with suspicion and said, "You guys round the wards first. I'll be there later."
After he sent the trainees away, he turned back to look at Theodore. "Why are you here?"
Theodore put his phone down and frowned. "Where's Evie?"
"Evie?" Christopher's eyes were a little wary.
Theodore squeezed his phone tightly and frowned.
Christopher did not ask further. He looked at Theodore and said, "She applied for leave early in the morning. Why are you looking for her?"
Theodore faced Christopher's gaze, clenched his fists even tighter and said, "It's nothing."
"If it's nothing, why are you here?"
Theodore's brows twitched and he avoided Christopher's gaze. "I still have some matters to attend to so I'll be leaving now."
After that, he went straight to the elevator.
On the way, he met Quinn. "Sir, is this your coat?"
"Yes, thank you."
"You're welcome."
After Quinn returned Theodore's coat to him, he greeted Christopher who walked toward him. "Good morning, Dr. Meyer."
Christopher nodded and looked in the direction of the elevator with his arms crossed. "What's going on?"
Quinn scratched his head and was a little confused. "I went to the dormitory to get something in the morning and saw that gentleman sleeping there. He reeked of alcohol. I guess he drank too much and came to the wrong place last night. I don't know how he got in there as there was no one in the dormitory."
Christopher frowned.

It was a temporary dormitory that was especially used for doctors on duty to rest. Although not many would use it, to ensure the safety of the staff, only staff members with an access card could enter and exit the dormitory. How could Theodore just barge in on his own?
Christopher thought about Everleigh's leave in the morning and suddenly felt that something was wrong. He took his mobile phone out from his white coat pocket and dialed Everleigh's number.
The phone rang for a long time before it was answered. A yawn was heard from the other end of the line. "Hello?"
Everleigh had just returned home. It was not long since she came back and laid on her bed after she sent the two children to school.
In the bedroom, the curtains were tightly drawn. If it wasn't for the alarm clock on the bedside table that showed that it was ten o'clock in the morning, it would be hard to tell that it was already daytime.
"Why did you suddenly apply for leave?" Christopher asked Everleigh casually over the phone.
Everleigh said, "I'm a little tired and wanted to rest for a couple of days. There is something to deal with at school."
There was a few seconds of silence on the phone.
"Everleigh, are you hiding something from me?"
Everleigh's heart tightened and she denied, "No, what are you thinking about? What would I hide from you?"
"Theodore was looking for you at your office in the morning."
Christopher had always been able to point out the matter sharply, which left her speechless.
"Don't lie to me. You have never lied to me before." Before Everleigh could come up with a countermeasure, Christopher had cut her plans. It was rare for him to put away his casual attitude and he said in a serious tone, "What are you doing?" Everleigh was very sleepy at first, but because of Christopher's phone call, she was now wide awake.
After a long silence, she said, "Christopher, I want to replace out what happened seven years ago. It's too slow to just approach Yvonne alone."

"Then?" asked Christopher.
"That's why I want to investigate from the source itself."
Since everything that had happened back then was because she was Theodore's girlfriend, then she would need to go back to where she was seven years ago, so that the person who had tried to lay a finger on her would do it again now. Christopher quickly understood what she meant. "Are you looking for death?"
"The enemy is in the dark, but I am in the light. I will not take any actions recklessly. If I am not careful enough, I will make the same mistakes again and it would be too late to regret it."
Everleigh, however, was very determined. "I have thought about it and there's no other way."
It was either to sit back and wait, or to self-destruct. Selena only gave her three months. She must replace out the truth within these three months. No matter what the result was, she could only do her best and leave the rest to fate. Christopher's tone was resentful. "You hurt the enemy a thousand times, but hurt yourself eight hundred times. It's foolish."
"When all of this is over, I will return to Maniville with Alastair and Adrienne and I will never come back."
"If it really is as easy as you say, then why would I stop you from contacting Theodore? Everleigh, do you know what you're doing?"
"I know."
"No, you don't."
Christopher's tone was serious; it was rare for him to talk to her in this manner. The atmosphere suddenly became a little tense. Even through the phone, the tension between the two sides could be felt.
After a long time, Christopher finally broke the silence. "You have not seen him for seven years and nothing happened to you. You said that you have let go and I believed you. Self-deception will become true after a long time. You're fine as long as you don't see him, but now you are taking the initiative to approach him. Do you really think that there are only two outcomes? Either success or failure? Have you forgotten that there is a third outcome?" "What is it?"
"The third outcome is that you would repeat the same mistakes again."
Christopher uttered the sentence 'repeat the same mistakes again', word for word. Every word was like a drum beating in Everleigh's ears, which echoed lightly.
