Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied
Chapter 489 A Greater Preference For Xavier

When he heard what Madison said, Theodore replied indifferently, "Mom, there's no way you can break the relationship between Everleigh and me, so you should just give up. I had no intention to let Everleigh follow me here in the first place because I know that you would treat her nastily. However, she still insisted on coming because you were not the person who had hurt her."

Madison snorted, "I've told you a long time ago that it wasn't me but you weren't willing to believe what I said. You are such a disobedient son."

"However, you were still in the wrong because you were the one who kidnapped me, framed me, and joined hands with Josephine to hurt me," Everleigh retorted. Madison suddenly became tongue-tied but she still felt dissatisfied.

"Wilson was the one behind everything that had happened. Your car was used by him and you were framed but you didn't even know. Aunty, you've always said that you are in control of everything in the Godfrey family. However, you can't even control your ex-husband well now. What's there for you to be proud of?" Everleigh said calmly.

As she looked at the color of Madison's face, she felt uncomfortable as well.

Although she came to apologize, she still disagreed with Madison's behavior.

She was always against her. She wouldn't let her go so easily.

"How is that possible? Does Wilson no longer care about Godfrey Group's affairs?" Madison said with a look of unbelief.

Her eyes were full of panic.

Everleigh suddenly realized that Madison was a little pitiful. In Madison's eyes, she was always the one who was in charge of Godfrey Group, but she didn't know that she was an ignorant person as well and wasn't aware of everything that had happened in the company.

"Mom, you've been in Godfrey Group for so many years. Haven't you found out about Wilson's connections? You've always thought that training me was your biggest accomplishment, and you've never realized that Godfrey Group had already been invaded by Wilson," Theodore responded. He didn't want to say this, but he thought that Madison should know about her own shortcomings.

Hearing these words, Madison swayed as if she had been severely hit and almost fell to the ground.

"There's another thing you don't know. Xavier had a car accident and is currently unconscious. Last night, someone even tried to kill him. I'm sure a smart person like you would know who was the person behind it," Theodore said. Madison's entire body trembled, and her mind was in a state of chaos.

Everleigh turned her head and looked at Theodore. In her heart, she knew that he had been suppressing himself. He had carried all the burdens by himself for such a long time. Although he obviously had a father, Wilson wanted nothing more than to kill him. He could not depend on his mother either.

As the president of Godfrey Group, he had to hide all these emotions.

"That's impossible. Xavier has always been at home. How could he be killed? What did you do?" Madison directly spoke her mind.

It was obvious that she had a greater preference for Xavier.

Even if he was paralyzed and in a wheelchair at home, she would force herself not to disturb him in order to let him live in a peaceful environment.

Theodore had spent many years with them. How could he not know what she was thinking?

If only Madison had a little bit of affection for him, then she wouldn't have let anyone mistreat Everleigh, and she wouldn't have destroyed him either. He understood all of this.

That was why he never visited her in prison.

She wanted to deal with all the troubles in Godfrey Group first and then pass the company over to Xavier.

However, she didn't expect that everything she desired and worked for would be thwarted by Wilson.

She couldn't accept the fact that her ex-husband had interfered so much.

"I've let him manage the company now, and I've also established my own group as well. Godfrey Group is entirely under Wilson now. Mom, are you satisfied with this? You've sacrificed so much for Xavier, and yet this is how things had turned out," Theodore spoke and stared at her; he didn't hide the sadness in his eyes.

Madison's anger abated slightly when she heard this.

She knew the reason why he was angry.

"Everleigh, let's go. We've already met her and said everything that should be said. Mom, take care of yourself," Theodore said as he pulled Everleigh out.

She didn't say much and followed him out.

At the moment they stepped out of prison, Theodore burst out, "My mother did everything she could just for Xavier. Everleigh, do you think that having a mother is a blessing now?"

She walked over and hugged him, consoling, "Theodore, you have me with you, and that's enough. We have a small family, and you even have your own children. You don't need your parents. You are our pillar of support, do you understand?" "I know, but Everleigh, I've never truly felt the warmth of a family for so many years. Xavier is different from me. He enjoyed the best from his family," he said.

She understood what he meant. Madison was only concerned about one person.

She didn't expect that things would turn out this way.

"Let's go back. I don't want to care about her anymore," he said with a tone full of disappointment.

Everleigh pondered for a moment and said, "The moment I saw Madison, I realized that there's something wrong with her body. Her eyes and skin are yellow, and it's obvious that she has signs of liver disease." Theodore's expression froze and he asked, "Are you sure about it?"

"Of course. If one have liver disease, it will be shown on his body. Although she is in prison, a physical examination should still be conducted every day. You can ask someone about it," she said.

He nodded. He'd decided to investigate.

They drove away from the prison and went straight back to their work.

She was absent for a long time. All the researchers gathered around to ask her for more information. Very quickly, everyone delved into their work.

Theodore had received a report from the prison, and it turned out that there was nothing wrong with his mother.

"What did the prison say about her condition?"

"They said that her health is as usual, and there's nothing abnormal about her body."

Moses was the one who answered.

Theodore trusted Everleigh and he knew that she wouldn't have mentioned this if there was no good reason.

"I want you to investigate this again, and make sure that nobody is meddling with Madison's information," Theodore ordered.

"Yes, Mr. Godfrey."

Theodore had an ominous premonition in his heart. He was worried that Wilson was planning to kill Madison.

He sat down and watched the scenery outside his window. Once again, anxiety and vexation filled his heart.

He sometimes wondered whether he really knew his father.

Everything he did was always out of his expectations.

That day passed by quickly, and Everleigh dragged her exhausted body back home. Selena was playing at home with Alastair and Adrienne.

Adrienne laughed until her face turned red like a tomato.

"What are you guys playing so happily here?" Everleigh asked.

"We're playing the game we used to play when we were young. Have you forgotten it?" Selena explained.

She remembered how she played the game in the past.

How could Everleigh forget about the game to catch the duck?

These were all memories of her childhood.

"You went to the company today?" Everleigh said when she noticed that Selena was still wearing her suit. She had to admit that her sister had a nice figure, and she was still charming even when she put on her suit. "Well, I learned something from Dad today. Everleigh, it's so draining to do business. It gave me a headache," Selena complained.
