She Dumped Her Dodgy Husband After Suffering Amnesiac

Chapter 229 Before Farewell



Hellen sighed. “I won’t tell your parents about this, but I’ll have to meet your boyfriend first.”

She was afraid that Karlen would be deceived.

Karlen was silent for a few seconds on the other side, and a shy voice came.

“Sis, you have met him.”

Hellen frowned, pondering.

During Taylor’s birthday party, she had indeed invited many of Karlen’s classmates at Tempe University, but she did not know any of them.

“Who is it?” Hellen asked.

Karlen whispered, “It’s the boy you saw at the Grant’s Villa last time.”

Hellen quickly recalled the boy she had seen at the party last time. At that time, Karlen, Taylor, Luz, and the boy surnamed Sherman were there.

Karlen’s voice came from the other end. “His name is Mullen. He’s an excellent man and treats me very well.”

In his memory, the boy was quite good-looking, and he seemed to have a good outlook when talking.

Hellen relaxed.

Karlen stammered, “Sis, can you not tell my parents about this?”

Hellen sighed, “That’s fine, but this is the first time you’ve fallen in love. Since you’ve asked me to keep this secret, I must also take responsibility for you. If anything happens, you must tell me immediately, OK?”

Karlen answered happily, “Okay, don’t worry. Mullen is a very good person.”

Hellen hung up the phone and drove on the road. The corners of her mouth were slightly raised.

Karlen had always been a carefree girl.

Hellen did not expect that Karlen would behave like a good girl one day.

Even though she had promised Karlen not to tell his uncle and aunt about his relationship, Hellen still went to the Darkside the moment she got home.

She flipped through all the documents on Mullen.

Mullen’s family background was simple. His father was a surgeon at Tempe City Hospital and his mother was a teacher.

Hellen checked Mullen’s school materials. He has always been an outstanding student since primary school.

There was nothing out of the ordinary in the documents. Hellen relieved.

In the next two days, Hellen stayed at home almost all the time, busy with Everet’s engagement.

On Thursday night, Hellen received a call from Hans.

“Hey, what is it?” Hellen asked.

On the other end of the line, Everet’s voice was cold.

“It’s Moreton from Empire Y. He called and asked when we’re going to sign the contract. It should be from the royal family of Empire Y.”

Hans said in a low voice, “To avoid any unexpected situations, I may have to go to Empire Y tomorrow.”

Hellen’s heart skipped a beat, and she unconsciously asked, “How long will you stay there?”

“After signing the contract, I will come back as soon as possible. It will take about a week.” There was a hint of laughter in Hans” voice.

This timing was normal. Hellen had calculated the time. The people in Empire Y were very troublesome in their business, and it would take a long time to deal with them.

Usually, it would take half a month, but Hans was fast.

“It doesn’t matter. You can go. From tomorrow on, I’ll go to the United Department. I will take care of everything during the time you’re away.”

There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone. Hans” voice was low.

“Hellen.”

“Yes?”

“Before leaving, I want to see you again.”

Hellen’s hand on the phone tightened slightly.

“Why do you want to see me?”

“I might not be able to see you in the next week.” Hans” hoarse voice carried a hint of magnetism, mixed with strong emotions.

Hellen’s heart skipped a beat.

She was about to refuse when Hans seemed to have seen through her.

“There is still a lot of work to be done in the United Department of the Weststadt District. I have to explain it to you.”

Hellen’s violently beating heart calmed down slightly.

“Are you going tomorrow?” Hellen looked at the time. It was already three o’clock in the afternoon.

She thought for a moment and said, “Why don’t I treat you to dinner? After all, you represent our two companies. I can’t go there now. You have to work hard alone. By the way, you can tell me your instructions.”

Hans laughed and said, “Sure.”

They set the time to meet at six o’clock in the evening. Hellen left the house before Everet came back

She drove to the restaurant that Hans had booked.

Today was not a weekend holiday, so there were not many people there.

Hellen hurriedly got out of the car and walked in. As soon as she entered the restaurant, she noticed something was wrong.

Hans had booked a fancy restaurant, but even if it was not during the holidays, the first floor should not be so empty.

After entering, the two attendants closed the door. Hellen stood in front of the door, and the lights on the first floor instantly dimmed.

Specks of light could be seen flickering on the glass ceiling of the hall.

Hellen’s heart jumped.

Not far away, on a long table in the middle of the restaurant, the candlelight gradually lit up.

Hans was standing beside a long table covered with a white lace tablecloth, like a prince coming out of an ancient oil painting.

Hellen’s feet were nailed to the ground. She couldn’t move at all.

The waiter, who led her inside, was confused. He turned around and asked, “Miss?”

Hellen pursed her lips, clenched the bag in her hand, and walked toward Hans calmly.

There were candlelights. Elegant music also came from the second floor.

The atmosphere was too ambiguous.

Hellen sat down and asked casually, “You booked the entire restaurant?”

A smile appeared on Hans” face. “Why? Since you invited me to dinner, you should show me some sincerity, right?”

They sat at the two ends of the long table, and Hans frowned slightly.

He stood up and put his chair beside Hellen.

“What are you doing?”

Hans said calmly, “I don’t want to stay too far away from you.”

It was a short sentence, but Hellen felt as if something had struck her heart.

After the heavy blow, the aftershock stirred her heart bit by bit.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

The dishes were served one by one to the melodious music.

Hans carefully cut up a steak for her. Hellen quietly clenched her hands under the table and became restless.

Hellen had no appetite.

She suddenly felt like a frog in a pot of warm water. She had no idea when she would be cooked by Hans.

When the two of them came out of the restaurant, Hans reached out and carefully held her waist.

Hellen was rather uncomfortable.

When they got out of the restaurant and stood by the road, it was already dark.

Under the streetlights, Hans” eyes looked very serious.

It was now late autumn, and a cool breeze blew on the street. Hellen couldn’t help but shiver.

Hans took off his coat and put it on her shoulder.

His eyes were faint, but his movements were extremely soft.
