NovelEnglish"Whether it is or isn't, that's something your investigation will reveal." Suzy arched a brow at her. "So? Need my help looking into it?" "No need, I'll handle it myself." Helena pulled out her phone and dialed her assistant. "I need you to look into something for me." Just as Suzy had said, the truth would only cout after a proper investigation.
Still, Helena refused to believe that any of her childhood friends would betray her.
Their bond was something outsiders couldn't understand.
They weren't blood-related, but their connection ran deeper than that.
To say they were closer than family wouldn't be an exaggeration.
She was closer with her friends than she was to Evangeline.
There was no way it could be them.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhile Helena was on the phone, Suzy studied her closely, watching every minute shift in her expression.
Her every movement, every subtle change in her features-nothing seemed off.
Not a single sign of deception.
Which could only mean one thing.
There were two Helenas.
After all, there had already been a fake Diana.
A fake Helena wasn't surprising in the slightest.
It was just another one of their usual tricks.
A diversion, shifting all suspicion onto Helena to throw Suzy off track.
If that was the case, then the reason they lured her here was for this exact purpose-to set Helena up as their scapegoat.
How ridiculous.
The more she thought about it, the more amused Suzy became, until a cold chuckle slipped past her lips. They were afraid of her.
Otherwise, they wouldn't keep setting up decoys.
Hearing Suzy's low laugh, Helena frowned. "What's so funny?" Something about this whole visit felt off.
Suzy showing up just to check on her? That wasn't their kind of relationship.
There had to be another reason for her to go out of her way like this Seeing Helena studying her intently, Suzy chuckled. "I laughed because I found it funny. What, am I not allowed to laugh? Or do you think there's nothing ridiculous about this?" She leaned back slightly, her tone casual yet sharp. "Helena, I hate to say it, but you're an adult. Can you stop being so naive? "Loyalty is never absolute. Not between friends, lovers, or even family. When faced with theright incentive, people will always put their own interests first.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"You keep insisting your friends would never betray you, but have you ever considered that this is just your personal belief? "If the offer was tempting enough, why wouldn't they turn against you? "No matter how close you are to them, at the end of the day, you're just a friend.
And honestly? Friends aren't that important." "Do you even have friends?" Helena shot back immediately.
She might agree with Suzy's logic, but she didn't appreciate her trashing her friendships.
"I don't think you do. That's probably why you don't understand the kind of bond we have. "Letput it this way-if I ever found someone I truly wanted to et
spend my life with, but my friends liked him too, I would gladly step I aside and let them have him. "Because to me, no one is more important than them." Helena's words were so resolute that Suzy didn't argue further.
She simply let out a faint hum of acknowledgment.
"It's getting late. I should get going." She stood up and glanced at Helena. "If you find anything, letknow. Because..." A small smile tugged at Suzy's lips.
"I need to make you an antidote based on whatever it is they used to poison you." With that, she turned toward the door.
Just as she was about to step forward, a sudden noise cfrom inside Helena's room.
