Chapter 57 Two Years Ago
Mrs. Grant vented all her anger at Hellen and complained incessantly.
Taylor hesitated before looking at her mother. “Mama, don’t you think Hellen is at least much better than Natalie?”
“Natalie?” Mrs. Grant frowned. “In the past, I felt that even though Natalie was not worthy of your brother, she was at least better than Hellen. But now, she looks like a petty person.”
Taylor did not try to persuade her anymore.
But her understanding of Hellen was changing dramatically.
On the second floor, Hans sat in the study and David followed him in.
“Mr. Grant, the surveillance footage has been sent to your computer.”
the Grant family’s old house and Hans’s Green Villa were all under the supervision of the Gu Group’s Cybersecurity Department.
At this time, the surveillance video had been sent over. Hans’s face clouded as he found the surveillance information of the old house.
In the video, Natalie was swaying in the living room of the old house.
After a while, Granny Grant came out and she went to her side.
At two o’clock in the afternoon, the old lady had an attack and threw a piece of cake on Natalie’s dress. Natalie went to the bathroom angrily.
From the computer came her swearing words, “Damn you, old woman. I’m annoyed. Why haven’t you…”
Her voice was vague, but Hans could guess the word.
David’s expression changed slightly. He had grown up in the Grant family and had received a lot of care from Granny Grant. There was also some anger on his face.
After a while, Natalie came out and started arguing with Granny Grant in the living room.
The living room was very large, and the sound coming from it was not clear.
Natalie suddenly roared, “Hellen! Hellen! It’s Hellen again! Hans doesn’t love Hellen anymore! They’re divorced!”
Granny Grant’s figure flashed and her expression could not be seen clearly on the screen.
After yelling, Natalie turned around and left.
Granny Grant froze in the living room for a long time. She stood still, which made Hans’s heartache!
“Hellen, Hellen-”
Just like that, Granny Grant left through the door.
Natalie probably thought that Granny Grant couldn’t remember anything after her illness, which was why she was acting so wantonly!Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
Hans stopped when he saw this.
He was very clear now how his grandmother had gotten lost!
It was quiet in the study. Hans closed his eyes and said in a deep voice after a few seconds, “Arrange for a new caretaker for Grandma. Right now!”
“Alright.”
After David left, Hans opened his eyes and looked at the study.
He usually stayed in the Green Villa and seldom came to this study in the old house.
Hellen came here often. The furnishings in the study were all in his favorite style. This was not the original design.
Hans’s heart skipped a beat. He got up and looked at the censer on the incense burner not far away.
It tasted the same as before.
Hellen had done a lot for him in a place he couldn’t see.
Hans returned to the computer and looked at the surveillance documents.
The document Grant Group had sent not only included surveillance documents of the old house, but also of the Green Villa.
He steered the mouse and moved it to the top of the document of the Green Villa.
They had sent him a complete set of surveillance documents. Hans found out on the day of Hellen’s marriage. He remembered it because that day was Granny Grant’s birthday.
He clicked on the surveillance video and browsed through it day by day.
In the video, Hellen was always busy in a few plain and ladylike clothes.
She ironed his clothes, wiped his shoes, and then sprayed some perfume on them.
It turned out that these were not done by the maid.
The more he browsed, the more suffocated Hans felt.
Hellen had been doing everything related to him herself.
Apart from doing housework like making incense and dinner, Hellen spent the most time on the balcony of the bedroom, looking in the direction of the gate.
Hans felt heartbroken.
As he continued browsing, he found that Hellen’s life was similar to that of a replica every day.
She meticulously arranged his life in obscurity.
For the rest of the time, she either went to the old house or waited for him to go home.
Hellen’s beautiful face flashed through Hans’s mind. It turned out that she was like this in the past.
In the past, he’d never paid attention to Hellen, nor had he ever paid attention to the hard work she’d put in.
Grandma’s words flashed across his mind.
“You will regret it.”
Hans patted his chest with a frown on his handsome face. A palpitation in his heart made him feel a little strange and flustered.
He moved the mouse and clicked on the document of the last day of Hellen’s stay in Green Villa.
The surveillance camera in the bedroom was encrypted. He entered the password and saw how busy Hellen was. She was holding her phone and looking at something.
Hans zoomed in on the picture and saw a blurry image on the phone screen. It was a photo of him.
Hellen drew past them one by one. There was the side of his face and the back of his back. But not a single one of them was looking at the front of the camera.
Until the image changed to darkness and a voice rang out.
Footsteps sounded as he returned home.
He had been in a bad mood that day. Natalie had had a heart attack because he hadn’t divorced Hellen.
He went to the bar for a few drinks. When he got home, he directly tore off the clothes of the sleeping Hellen.
Hans’s fingers trembled slightly.
In the two years that passed quickly in the video, he seemed to be the dumbest and indifferent one, like a devil.
Hans did not continue browsing. He still remembered that he had proposed a divorce the next morning.
He didn’t want to recall that part anymore.
Did he make the wrong choice?
The air in the study seemed to have frozen.
Hans sat in a chair and looked out of the window. The sunlight reflected the dust in the air.
The aura around him was cold and deep…
The next day.
Hellen was busy with her work in the morning. After lunch at the company and just as she was about to go to the United Department, Karlen ran to the Jovano Group.
“Hellen, I heard that you’re going to the Weststadt District. Take me with you!”
Karlen, carrying a large backpack, looked very excited.
Hellen narrowed her eyes. “Your room has been tidied up? You don’t need to go to class?”
“Yes, I don’t have class today.”
Karlen was good at entangling people. Although Hellen could control her, she doted on Karlen, so she finally took her to the United Department in the Weststadt District.
When they arrived at the entrance of the United Department, Hellen instructed, “I told you that there’s nothing fun here, but you insisted on coming. Since you’re already here, then be quiet and don’t run around. Understand? Don’t disturb others.”
Karlen pouted and said, “Got it.”
She looked at Hellen’s office and then looked at the room next door.
“Hellen, whose office is the one next door?”
Hellen glanced at the door. “The President of the Grant Group.”
“The president of the Grant Group?” Karlen thought for a moment and was shocked. “Hans? The former brother-in-law?”
Hellen gritted her teeth, laughing dangerously. “Karlen!”
Karlen immediately shut her mouth.
It was only after Hans and Hellen divorced that the media got released that they were married, which could be regarded as a piece of sensational news in Hail City.
After Karlen entered the office, she whispered to Hellen, “Grandma was very angry when she found out about what happened between you and Hans. She said that she would kick out the Grant Group from Hail City.”
“Grandma does have a bad temper. Did your father not persuade her?” When Hellen thought of her grandmother and uncle, she laughed softly.
Karlen raised her eyebrows and said, “My father agrees, but the Grant family is not easy to deal with. Recently, we have only robbed a few resources from the Gregg family.”
“Only?”
Hellen frowned. “Hans is not an easy person to get along with. I don’t have much of a relationship with him now. You can talk to your father when you have time. There’s no need to make things difficult for the Grant family.”
She was worried about the Thomas Family.
