I REPAY MY HUSBAND'S BETRAYAL [30]
"I wasn't expecting to see you today, Helena." The middle-aged man, who was one of Edison's family doctors, was delighted to see Helena sitting in his room. "To be honest, I was quite worried about your father's condition. But I'm sure Doctor Samuel is doing his best. He's a very competent heart doctor."Helena gave a little smile. "You're right." She made herself at home in her seat. "Please stop by and see Papa when you get a chance, Doctor Adi. I'm sure Papa will be happy to see you.""I will, Helena." Adi adjusted his glasses. "Any issues with the pregnancy? You've been taking all your vitamins and medicine, right?""Not at all." Helena gave a big, warm smile. "I'd like to know how things are going. I don't feel like this pregnancy is a burden at all. Wilna says I should be grateful. This baby gets that I've got a lot on my plate."Doctor Adi let out a chuckle. "Wilna's right. There's no need to worry. Some women don't feel anything during the early stages of their first trimester

"Thanks," Helena said to the guy who showed her to the lobby door. She didn't deserve to be treated like this, but without realizing it, they were chatting about light but pleasant things. Maybe it was Michael's friendly and polite manner that made it okay for Helena to talk about the hospital."I hope we can meet again soon."Helena let out a laugh. "Well, I'll let you get on with your day, Doctor Michael. "It was a pleasure talking with you."Michael nodded and gave a bright smile. Helena was driven away from the hospital area in a black luxury car.Michael didn't want to leave just yet, but he wanted to make sure the car she was in actually left the hospital.Michael was ready to get back to work, so he reached for his cell phone to give the person watching Helena a quick update."Yes, Mr. Michael. I'll stay away from Miss Helena's car and let you know what's going on as soon as I can.""Good." Michael ended the call. He gave the orders to his team pretty quickly. But before he got

"Tiara," Deny Jacob called out, sounding concerned. The maid at his house said that since she got back a few hours ago, Tiara hadn't left the room. As a father, especially when his daughter was pregnant, he couldn't just leave her to it. On top of that, Tiara didn't go to the office at all today, just to take care of her part.This clearly worried Deny."Yes, Pa?" Tiara came out with a big smile on her face. Her face looked normal, as if there was nothing to worry about."What's going on?"Tiara's brow furrowed in surprise. "What's the problem?" She was even surprised by her father's question just now."Is everything okay?" Deny asked, still looking at his daughter with surprise. "You haven't been at the office all day. Not even Arslan knows where you are."Tiara gave a big, warm smile. "Oh, Papa. There's no need to worry. I'm a bit tired, but I'm sure I'll feel much better after a good rest. On top of that, the doctor said I shouldn't push myself too hard. I've started to cut back on

Mirna abruptly set down her teacup. She was still thinking about what happened at the auction that night. On top of not expecting to meet Helena, the woman she'd taken for granted suddenly appeared and seemed to have more influence than she'd realized.Many people said that there was some truth to that figure, but there was still a hint of disbelief. Mirna didn't like holding on to these kinds of feelings. She needed to prove it to herself because when she spoke with Helena that night, Helena left a rather annoying impression on her."Tsk! Why are women still so annoying?"Meanwhile, Yori, who had just gotten back from somewhere, decided to sit next to her mother with a bit of a lazy look on his face."How's it going?" Mirna asked right away. Don't let Yori's return go to waste."I've been looking into Helena. Everyone I've spoken to has given the same answer. As it turns out, the rumors about the Edison family's youngest daughter are true. She doesn't socialize much. She's abroad, co

"I heard you didn't go to the office today, Helena?" Thomas said as he enjoyed the salad that was his dessert tonight."Yes, I'm seeing Doctor Adi today." Helena didn't keep her pregnancy a secret from her brother. "He said he's sorry he couldn't make it to see Papa."Thomas let out a soft sigh. "How long are you planning to keep this on the down low? You know, it's a bit of a burden for me.""I'm not asking you to overthink this," Helena said, looking at her brother with frustration. "After all, you're the one who decided to find out what happened to me, right? I didn't plan to tell anyone but Wilna.""You're such an annoying sister, Helena.""Thanks for the compliment." Helena went back to enjoying her meal. The potato soup with chunks of meat, made by the chef at home, tasted just right on her tongue. "This is really good. I like it."Helena looked over at Gina, who was standing nearby. Gina was always on hand to help Helena with whatever she needed at home. This also meant making

"My advice would be not to talk to Michael," Tiara said while making sure her dress fit correctly. The white dress with crystals on the chest looked really elegant and expensive. Tiara isn't interested in a simple wedding party. In particular, the dresses and decorations during the procession should be eye-catching and generate a lot of conversation for the next few days.Yori, who had been helping Tiara get dressed, looked surprised. "Why are you suggesting that?""Are you being foolish or are you just too naive?" Tiara let out a laugh. "Michael works at the hospital, right? Who reached out to him first? It was Helena. I caught them at the hospital, which means... Helena approached Michael on a whim. I'm sure your boyfriend couldn't possibly refuse, right?"Yori blinked in confusion, but then she noticed her hands were firmly clenched. "You're right. Why didn't I think of that?" The younger woman followed Tiara's lead and went over to the large mirror. The dress was quite heavy, but

Helena knew this annoying woman would be at the inauguration event. But Helena hadn't expected to run into Tiara so soon. And right in the middle of all the invited guests. Was Tiara trying to cause a scene on purpose? Should she confront her?"I'm curious, how did you end up at an event like this, Helena?"This time it was Yori, Helena's former sister-in-law, who spoke up. It was clear that she was with Tiara. And let's not forget the middle-aged woman standing not far from them. Didn't they seem like a group of women who liked to put others down?"Oh, Yori. We should have guessed that her arrival must have been supported by someone." Mirna said, folding her arms across her chest. "You want to greet the event owner? Hmph! She won't even recognize you!"Helena gave a small, amused smile. "As a guest, I should say hello to the event owner. At least in the name of courtesy."Tiara rolled her eyes in frustration. "You'd better leave, Helena. You're not exactly a looker.""Is Tiara Jacob

"What happened?" Tiara asked, looking a little confused. She was taken aback by what she saw, which was very unexpected. This also made her stop in the middle of the party crowd. She watched Helena and Raline walk away together, hand in hand. She was confused and annoyed. She never thought Helena and Raline would be so close. On top of that, Tiara understood Raline was known for being very selective about her friends."What's going on, Tiara?" Yori expressed her surprise. She hadn't expected to get a surprise like this either. Before they went into the inaugural event, Tiara told Yori not to worry about where Helena was. There's going to be a pleasant surprise that'll put Helena in an even tighter spot.On top of that, Yori is eager to reveal Helena's identity. Despite her seemingly innocent and simple demeanor, he believes she is not what she appears to be. Yori sees Helena as a cunning woman. She's good at positioning herself and using others to achieve her goals. When she thought a

The next morning, Helena woke up feeling much lighter and calmer. In fact, if Helena were to be honest, it was one of her best mornings ever. Waking up to a window with a beautiful, serene view of the city. The air was cool and made Helena feel at home on the balcony of her room.Today Helena planned to visit a museum that exhibited some famous artworks and if she was lucky, Helena wanted to bring one of them (if it sold) for her collection or to gift a client who loved artworks. It was for the benefit of her company as well since Helena did not rule out gift-giving as a strategy to make the partnership work.“I think it's time for me to go,” Helena said as she organized her small bag. She didn't want to leave anything behind. Today her father was not accompanying her. There was an invitation to lunch with an old acquaintance and of course, they discussed some important matters. It wasn't that Helena didn't want to be involved but she wanted to make the most of her time in Switzerland

“Good evening, Mr. Hanry and Helena,” Alaric greeted in a polite tone. He was waiting for Helena and her father to come out of the hotel for dinner. As per his promise to take them to one of the recommended restaurants not far from the hotel where they were staying.“The police chief isn't as busy as I thought,” Helena said with a laugh. She thanked Alaric for his concern just before he invited her to get into the car. Her father was already inside and sitting comfortably.“I've been busy but I've put in a lot of time to entertain you. When else will you visit this place?” Alaric laughed lightly. “Or are you planning to visit again?”“I don't know yet.”“Or... you, Mr. Hanry? I feel very honored to meet you in person. Many of the things I've heard about the Edison Group being what it is today are all thanks to you.”Hanry laughed. “I haven't kept up with the Edison Group for a long time. My son is doing well, I'm just an old man waiting for my bank account to fill up with the company'

Helena stood in the room with her suitcase open in front of her. Some of her clothes seemed to be scattered on the big bed, as well as some other necessities that she had to put in the suitcase. Occasionally, she looked out the window, where the mansion's garden looked green and beautiful.“Miss Helena, what else do you need?” asked Vania, the maid who assisted Helena during her stay at the main house.“I don't know, I'm confused,” Helena chuckled in disbelief. “I haven't traveled like this in a long time.”“I'll help you and make sure you don't leave anything behind while you're abroad.”“Thank you Vania.” At least Vania's words relieved her. “Don't forget my hairdyer. In case it's not provided there, I'm too lazy to find a new hairdryer.”“Yes, Miss Helena.”Hanry entered after knocking on the door.“Papa?” Helena looked surprised not by her father's arrival but by what was in his hand. “Let me carry it. Why don't you ask the servants to bring it here?” Helena grumbled. Hanri brough

“What's got you in such a mood?” asked Wilna after returning from lunch. In her hand was the cup of coffee Helena had ordered. At first, she thought she would hear an exciting story from Helena about her meeting with her future in-laws. But there seemed to be something wrong here.Helena, who was originally cheerful, looked somber.“Nothing,” Helena said with a fake smile.Wilna raised one eyebrow, not believing Helena's words. She sat on the sofa in front of Helena and offered her the coffee she had brought. “Oh, come on, you can't fool me. How long have I known you?” Wilna asked as she savored her cup of coffee. “Your face looks more pathetic than any tragic play I've ever seen.”Helena just sighed as she took the coffee and sat next to Wilna. The heat that the coffee cup brought to her palm made Helena hold it tighter. She hoped Wilna would give up and stop asking questions. But who was she trying to fool? This was Wilna-the friend who could always get her to talk, even when she di

Six months had passed since all the drama.“Is there a follow-up meeting?” Helena asked Wilna who was still going through some files. Because of Helena's question just now, Wilna looked up and stared at her best friend and boss. She seemed to think before she finally spoke.“I don't think so. Besides, all your dealings with the production and marketing teams have been handled by Gio. He's reliable.”Helena chuckled. “But afterward, he must have complained about a lot of things, especially that he couldn't go back to his apartment because he had too much work at Nakia.”Wilna spluttered. “Who told him to live so far away from the office?”“Sometimes I feel sorry for Gio. He's adapting a lot to his surroundings but there's no denying it, if that's what you have to do. Right?”Wilna nodded enthusiastically. “Should we ask him to transfer? Gio is a potential employee for Nakia, Helena. Do you know how much of an impact he could have on Nakia's survival?”“I know,” Helena replied immediate

I really wanted to get rid of this uncomfortable feeling. Even though the vibe was quite relaxed and the song I was listening to was pleasant, it still felt awkward.“Where are we going, sir?” I asked. For the longest time. His answer? Just a big smile and a mischievous grin. Typical of a man named Thomas Edison. More often than not, he was annoying with his multiple desires, dizzying with so many detailed things he wanted, not to mention that sometimes he acted like a sulking five-year-old.I don't understand why so many people admire him. I know he has extraordinary capacity as a leader. But... I guess that's a performance Thomas often gives in front of many people. In front of me? It's a different story.Just like this afternoon. Even though his meeting schedule with Sofie had been arranged in such a way. It was a little difficult to contact the woman in the middle of her busy schedule with the launch of the new product she was managing. Sofie Ansela, the daughter of a rich family.

“Why is this happening to me?” I grumbled with a grumpy face. Really, dinner this time made me sick. Plus, Lily hasn't come home yet because she has work to finish immediately. At least if Lily joins us at the table, I can hold my temper a bit.What exactly is this asshole doing?“You don't have to bother bringing us a lot of food like this, Charles.”I heard my aunt speak in a friendly tone that was so sincere. Charles brought two large paper bags with the logo of a famous restaurant as gifts. I saw them as useless items in this house. Aunt Merry had prepared a separate dish for dinner.I stirred the food on my plate with no intention of actually eating it. Several times Aunt Merry offered me various delicious dishes at the dining table, but I refused. Really, I didn't want to eat the food Charles had brought for dinner this time.Uncle's voice talking about the house renovation plan sounded like the buzzing of mosquitoes in my ears. I only replied as needed, one or two words that I

Thomas really made me do a shitty morning activity. I had to wake up early, missing breakfast with Aunt Merry just to pick him up at the apartment. Ridiculously, I couldn't refuse not because I didn't have the courage. I saw that Thomas was really busy with his files. So... what that man was asking for wasn't just an excuse.He needs my help.So here I am now. Choosing a suit that suits him-tie, cufflinks, watch, and shoes. It must all match, or else I will get him angry. That's also why I had to take the time to study colors. It must be because the stuff in Thomas's clothes comes in a variety of colors.“Your clothes are ready,” I half shouted. I couldn't possibly talk in front of Thomas' bathroom door. Ugh! After sorting the clothes, I glanced at the dining table where there was nothing but a slice of bread with no jam on it.“How can he have so much energy with just two slices of bread?” I said as I opened the fridge. I took out the eggs, sliced beef, lettuce, tomato, and cucumber

“Damn,” I grumbled with an annoyed step. The encounter with Charles had completely ruined my mood. I was hungry but because of the argument, my taste buds just disappeared. I had to fill my stomach immediately because my job as Helena's replacement could not be taken lightly.Along the way to Helena's room, I kept thinking about that shameless Charles. God, he showed me a very bad side. And I felt that the sadness and disappointment that my marriage had failed was not as bad as it seemed. I was indeed sad, because what I wanted and longed for had come to an abrupt end. With an affair that I never expected.But the more days I pass, the more grateful I am that the failure happened.Including the incident this afternoon.Perhaps because I was too busy with thoughts that didn't lead to work, I had unknowingly stepped closer to Helena's office. The elevator that took me to my floor destination also seemed to be moving quickly. Unfortunately... I haven't put anything in my stomach as food.
