Chapter 15


    The one who spoke was Everleigh''s sister, Selena Trevino.


    She was folding her arms, leaning against the doorframe. She looked very elegant as she stood


    there quietly.


    Not too long ago, her wless face was ranked the prettiest face on the continent. She appeared in


    various advertisements and fashion magazines. Recently, she was the most popr celebrity in the


    entertainment industry.


    "How dare youe back?" Unfortunately, everything fell apart when Selena spoke.


    Selena stood upright nonchntly and red at Everleigh. She scoffed, "Seven years ago, I


    recalled that someone swore never to step into the Trevino family home again."


    Everleigh tightened her grip on the paper bag. She could not refute Selena.


    Back then, Everleigh was young and immature. After bing a mother, she finally understood


    how hard it was to be a parent. She realized how a parent would feel if the child made a mistake.


    "Selena, I came back to see Dad. Is he okay?"


    "Thanks to you, Dad was hospitalized for six months."


    Everleigh felt very guilty when she heard that. "It was my fault."


    Selena snorted. "Everleigh, how was it your fault? You''re the center of the world and everything had


    to revolve around you. But, let me tell you, the Trevino family can''t afford to have someone like you.


    Since you want to leave, then don''te back again."


    "Miss Selena, Miss Everleigh is just—"


    Helen could no longer stand and watch. She wanted to defend Everleigh but Selena interrupted


    harshly, "Helen, don''t just let anyone in. Who''ll be responsible if anything happens to Dad?"


    Helen was at a loss for words. She nced at Everleigh with an awkward look.


    Everleigh did not want to argue. She put down the supplements she bought and said, "Helen, it''s


    okay. I''ll be leaving. I''ll put the stuff here."


    As soon as she left, she heard Selena''s voice behind her. "Trash! Helen, throw everything away.


    Don''t let me see them again."


    Everleigh clenched her fists but did not look back.


    She knew her younger sister''s temper. Selena did not mean any harm but she held grudges against


    Everleigh. Back then, her father fell ill because of Everleigh, hence it was natural for Selena to feel


    the way she did.


    There was an overcast over the city. The weather forecast reported that it was going to rain.


    A ck Mercedes- Benz sped down the street. Suddenly, rain poured down and raindrops pattered


    against the car windows.


    Theodore''s impatient look was reflected in the rearview mirror. The driver slowed down and said,


    "It''s probably going to rain for a while. It''s lucky that I listened to you. Fortunately, we''ve been using


    this road for the past few days. I believe the other roads would be congested."


    Ever since the previous week, Theodore suddenly instructed the driver to take this road to the


    company. Logically speaking, the other road would be a lot faster.


    The car stopped at the intersection. The rain was getting heavier. Theodore suddenly stiffened


    when he stared out the window.


    On the opposite side of the road, Everleigh held a bag over her head. She rushed to the nearby bus


    stop amidst the downpour. She was drenched and she was in a mess.

    She hasn''t changed. She never remembered to bring an umbre with her whenever it rained.
