Chapter 55 It’s me!
Helena lied in bed, tossing and turning: Coax him? No? Coax him? No?
She kind of wanted to coax him, but it was embarrassing.
She was even afraid he would retort: “What? Can’t make it anymore? When you can’t make it, you remember me? When did I fall to the point where you can take advantage of me whenever you want?”
No, no, no!
It was too humiliating!
But if they had been at a standstill without coaxing, and the Yip family had been taking advantage.
The tax investigation could have crippled the Yip family, but not it became better.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
All right, all right!
Coax him!
His cold voice came again to her ears: “Don’t you think it’s too late to coax me now? When did I ever need a woman to coax me? Helena, who do you think you are? If you don’t chase after me to get married, would I care to get a marriage certificate with you?”
Helena was crazy, having no idea whether she should coax him or not!
She was so annoyed that she covered her head with the blanket.
Dazed, she found herself lying in a pool of blood. The blood was not her blood, but the blood of the person on top of her.
His blood was all drained, and the fresh life disappeared little by little before her eyes. Her heart hurt like cut by a knife and tears fell as she applied the blood to him: “Take the blood back, take it back …… I don’t want you to die, I don’t want you to die …… come alive… …”
“Why is this happening? Why is this happening?”
“If I hadn’t listened to them, if I had trusted only you, if I hadn’t been so stubborn, would we still be like this?”
“Jasper, I regret it, why couldn’t I have made compromise for you? Why couldn’t I put aside my dignity for you? Why couldn’t I see how good you were to me? Jasper, I regret it, I don’t want this, I don’t want this outcome.”
“Will you wait for me? Will you wait for me?”
In and out of the dream, Helena cried her heart out, her cries faintly reaching the door.
Suddenly, there was a sound from the door lock and a black figure scurried into the room. He switched on the bedside lamp and saw her clutching the covers and crying her last breath, her face covered in tears. Eyes tightly closed, a steady stream of tears flowed out.
She was dreaming again!
Just like last time, she was having nightmares again!
He picked her up and took her into his arms, whispering soothingly: “It’s all right, it’s all right, those were all dreams, they were all fake. It will be all right when you wake up, don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid. Don’t cry, don’t cry.”
She couldn’t stop crying as much as she had that day.
She clutched her chest: it hurts! It hurts so much!
Suddenly opening her eyes again, she looked at him blankly, her eyes unfocused, unable to distinguish between inside and outside the dream: “Jasper!”
“Mmm! It’s me!” Yes, it was Jasper. No one knew that he actually came over here every night. He had even secretly copied her key and slipped in to check on her while she was asleep.
He has a soft heart.
She could ignore him for the past thirteen days, but he couldn’t ignore her and wanted to be close to her.
He couldn’t say why, he just missed her, couldn’t help it. And he would feel that it was his loss that she was not with him, that he had wasted his time with her.
He felt possessed!
Helena hugged him and closed her eyes again, wailing, “Jasper!”
“Mmm!”
“Jasper!”
“Mmm!”
“Jasper!”
Jasper’s heart was rotten from her screaming, and he held her tighter: “Don’t you scream.”
When Helena did stop screaming, she just cried her heart out. When she woke up the next day, she was the only one inside the room, she didn’t know what had happened and she didn’t remember what she had dreamed.
It was just that the heartache was still there!
It hurt! It hurt!
She covered her chest, feeling that she could no longer do this. She sent a message to Wendy: [I decided to make compromise.]
Wendy: [Are you sure?]
Helena: [When it comes to dignity, men love dignity more. I am a woman, it doesn’t matter.]
Wendy: [He’s your husband. It is not embarrassing, it is just flirting.]
Helena: [You are single, how come you actually know this?]
Wendy: [I study journalism and chose psychology, sure I know.]
Helena: [All right, all right! You know! You know! So tell me, what is the right gift for me to buy?]
Wendy: [I don’t understand this, I am single and have not yet qualified to give gifts to men].
Helena smiled, and although she didn’t talk about anything, her mood was really relaxed.
She went to the mall to look for presents.
The mall was not too crowded and when she was about to go up to the third floor, she was bumped by a man in a hurry.
The handbag fell to the floor.
The contents scattered out.
The man panicked and knelt down to help her pick up, and apologized to her repeatedly, “Sorry, sorry, I am in a hurry to go to a meeting, and didn’t see you. See if there’s anything missing, I’ll help you find it.”
Helena was so poor, what could she carry in her bag? She casually looked at it and let the man go.
She continued up to the third floor.
On the third floor, in the luxury section, she met Rebecca. She really suspected that Rebecca was following her.
This time Rebecca was not alone.
She was with four women.
These four women were: Nadia Graham, Emma Watson, Talia Kaur and Elsa Hussain.
They were both young ladies from second-rate families.
Among them, Talia, who was the only daughter and was spoiled by the Kaur family to the point of lawlessness.
Helena didn’t like their personalities much and didn’t hang out with them much, limiting herself to just getting to know them.
After Rebecca came back, she passed posters with them to try to befriend them, but it didn’t work out. This time, because of Jasper’s relationship, they became friends.
Since they were friends, they naturally wanted to help Rebecca.
Talia was the first to speak up, “Yo! Isn’t this Miss Yip? What? You still want to come out and steal something?”
Helena said: “Even if you spray shit, can you please spray some human shit?”
Talia had been spoiled by her families.
No one dared to talk to her like that.
She became furious and pointed at the tip of Helena’s nose in an exalted manner: “How dare you say you don’t want to steal? Which of the things in here can you afford to buy? Let’s not talk about anything else, just these watches are at least two hundred thousand. Do you have two hundred thousand?” ten thousand a year. Are you trying to force her to sell herself?”
Nadia laughed: “Can she sell herself for two hundred thousand? I think it’s OK if it goes for two thousand!”
Emma said with a smile, “She earns a salary at work and it’s only ten thousand a month. Apart from her own food and drinks, she can’t save up
Elsa laughed so hard that she trembled: “Can two thousand buy a box? Where did she get the courage to come here to shop for luxury goods?”
Rebecca “kindly” advised: “Don’t say that, she told me before that her man was Jasper.”
