Chapter 335 Dog Bites Dog’s Struggle
Helga’s gaze darted between Radley and Riley.
Her goal had always been to establish a connection with the Freemans. A favorable rapport with Riley could pave
the way for much-needed financial support from the Freeman Group, perhaps even quelling the troublesome
shareholders investigating the mica incident.
However, Radley posed a significant hurdle.
With Riley’s impending defeat, her efforts to please her seemed futile.
Taking a deep breath, Helga withdrew her hand from Riley’s grasp.
“Riley! I never thought you would deceive me like this! I genuinely believed you were the mastermind behind that
formula two years ago. I almost unjustly accused Miss Freya because of it. Your deception knows no bounds!”
Riley’s legs gave way, and as Helga released her, she collapsed to the ground. The onlookers. made way for the
unfolding drama, but none dared to intervene.
With eyes filled with disbelief, Riley glared at Helga, her gaze smoldering with resentment.
“Helga, what are you talking about?”
Helga replayed the recording in her mind. She had hurled harsh words at Freya and enlisted. Leah to steal her
formula.
However, no d*mning evidence linked her to the mysterious photo album. She could argue that Riley had
manipulated her into nurturing baseless suspicions against Freya for far too long.
Determined, Helga realized that, having offended the Freeman, she now needed to secure favor with the
Monaghans or the Kaufmanns.
She turned around, tears welling up in her eyes, and threw a pitiful glance at Radley. “Mr. Monaghan! My choice of
friends was misguided. I had always seen Riley as a kind-hearted. person. She never missed an opportunity to
malign Miss Freya in my presence, fueling my resentment. I genuinely believed that Miss Freya was guilty of the
offenses Riley accused her of, which led Leah to steal her formula. Yet, Riley later confessed to me that Miss Freya
had indeed copied her accomplishments.” Helga quickly concocted a justification for herself.
Freya stood nearby, somewhat impressed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWow! It is why she succeeded in establishing her independent brand. Despite her modest talents, she possessed a
gift for persuasive rhetoric, a valuable asset in the cutthroat world of business.

Helga pressed on, “It was Riley who misled me and led me to wrongly accuse Miss Freya for so long!” Tears welled
up in her eyes as she spoke.
Seeing Radley’s lack of reaction and his cold gaze upon her, Helga gritted her teeth and forced herself to speak
firmly, “This time, I’m voluntarily withdrawing from the competition. I must gather the courage to apologize to Miss
Freya for my misunderstanding and wrongful accusations!”
With determination, Helga turned and walked over to Freya, bowing deeply. “Miss Kaufmann, I’m profoundly sorry
for being deceived by Riley and unfairly targeting you. I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me. I still aspire
to be friends with Can
you. grant me an opportunity to make amends?”
Freya regarded Helga but refrained from offering a definitive response.
“What kind of opportunity do you propose?”
“Let’s collaborate!” Helga suddenly fixed her gaze on Freya. “Miss Kaufmann, you’re aware that I have a perfume
brand. I’m willing to partner with the Monaghan Group to help promote the development of its new fragrance line!”
Freya struggled to stifle a laugh. She thought, Shameless, utterly shameless.

“Helga, do you think I’m naive? Do you believe I’m unaware of the mica and child labor issues tied to your brand?
You’re audaciously clinging to your tarnished company and now. seek to collaborate with the Monaghan Group’s
upcoming fragrance line?”
Those nearby caught on. The chief director sneered, “Even without those prior controversies, your brand is dwarfed
by the Monaghan Group. How dare you propose collaboration?”
“Is this your idea of compensation? You’re merely asking Miss Freya to act as your stepping stone! You deceived her
in the first place!”
Amid the clamor, Riley had managed to pull herself up from the ground.
She hated Freya, but now, her greatest contempt was reserved for Helga.
Freya had ignited her hatred, but Helga had elicited her profound disgust.
“Helga! Go to hell!” Riley seethed with anger, but unfortunately, she had failed to leave behind any evidence when
she initially schemed against others.
Riley charged straight at Helga and lunged at her!
Her hands viciously clawed at Helga’s face, and one of her fingers forcibly hooked into the corner of Helga’s lips,
tearing it apart.

A piercing scream echoed along the beach as the corner of Helga’s lip was brutally torn!
Riley’s thirst for vengeance remained unquenched as she mercilessly delved deeper into the wound, causing blood
to gush forth and flesh to contort. The director swiftly ordered the live broadcast to be terminated.
The live studio plunged into darkness, and viewers were left in shock by the unfolding drama.
On the beach, members of the organizing committee had all arrived.
The situation had taken an unexpected turn that left them utterly dumbfounded. What was meant to be resolved by
a referee’s intervention had escalated into a bizarre spectacle!
The president, his white hair disheveled, was furious. “Disgraceful! Allowing these two to participate in our
competition is the biggest stain in the history of our event!”
“Expel them and bar them from future participation. The competition’s official account. should publicly denounce
their actions on social media, and the industry should unite in boycotting them! People like them have no place in
the world of perfumery!”
The president seethed while Eric and the referce attempted to placate him.
Amidst the chaos, Freya stood in silence, observing the tumultuous clash between Riley and Helga.
Helga lay on the ground, writhing in agony, clutching at Riley’s hair. Riley, seemingly unhinged, struck Helga
forcefully after her hair was wrenched free.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe staff swiftly intervened, forcibly dragging both of them away. Most of the participants, mainly female, watched
in fear.
“Did you see that? Helga’s lip is torn from the corner!”
“Goodness, I might have nightmares from this. Riley is scarier than a ghost; she showed no
mercy.”
The organizing committee president turned to Freya, noticing her composed demeanor. He sighed deeply.
“Miss Kaufmann, the organizing committee deeply regrets the events that transpired earlier. We nearly misjudged
you.”
Freya shook her head, her smile failing to reach her eyes. “This has nothing to do with the organizing committee.
They intended to deceive you from the very beginning.”
In the aftermath of the tumultuous events, only chaos and confusion remained.

Some people possessed an innate talent for alienating others.

Taking a deep breath. Freya turned her attention to Leah, who appeared utterly shaken. Leah, naturally timid, had
been overwhelmed by fear. Witnessing Riley’s ruthless assault on her cousin had left her defeated and sitting on the
floor.
“Leal,” Freya approached, her tone soothin
Today, Freya felt graceful toward Leah. Initially, she suspected that Helga and Riley had coerced the timid Leah into
stealing her formula.
However, she hadn’t anticipated that Leah had intended to assist her, even at the cost of disqualifying her from the
competition.
A warmth filled Freya’s heart, and she reached out her hand to help Leah to her feet.
Once Leah was on her feet, Freya turned her gaze to Radley, who had remained throughout the chaos.
