A Cue for Love novel Chapter 1178

Chapter 1178 No Chance To Strike Back

A menacing grin bloomed on the man’s face. Helma wasn’t a fool. She somewhat had a premonition after her near-death experience. Now that she heard her so-called father’s remark, the answer that she had deep in her heart was revealed instantly. “A-A split personality?” It was just three simple words, but Helma realized she was stuttering through her words as soon as she said them out loud.

The man looked exactly the same as Geert, but they gave off vibes that were completely opposite. The man in front of her looked hostile and emitted a domineering aura as if he was an arrogant king.

“A split personality? I suppose you can put it that way,” King replied sarcastically. “But I prefer saying that my origin self can no longer bear my ego’s weakness, so my stronger origin self was unleashed.” Origin self? Ego?

Helma bit her lip and stared at the man in front of her. “A-Are you going to kill me?” She backed away frightfully as the suffocating feeling she sensed last time rushed over her. “What’s good about killing you?”

“Then what are you…” Helma pressed her palm against her chest while staring at her “father,” who seemed to be familiar yet unfamiliar at the same time.

“As a daughter, are you really satisfied with having a useless man like Geert as your father?” King approached Helma step by step. “A useless man like him will live a mediocre life. If it weren’t because of your mother’s royal status protecting him, he would be nothing! He isn’t even capable of helping you win over Bastien!”

Hope filled Helma’s heart instantaneously as she heard his words. “Are… Are you saying that you can?”

“Of course.” King stared right into Helma’s eyes. Word by word, he said, “It’s been so many years, so we should’ve settled everything once and for all. On the night of the wedding, I will make Bastien your man and make him do everything for you. Moreover, he’ll only love you and dote on you for the rest of his life without ever having the guts to betray you!”

King’s suggestions were simply too attractive. The glimmer of hope in Helma’s eyes became stronger in an instant. I will do anything as long as I can be with Bastien!

She nodded solemnly. “I’m willing to do anything you want me to do as long as Bastien will be mine!”

Hearing that, King smirked smugly. “Soon!”

Unbeknownst to anyone, a storm was brewing under the calm surface before the wedding.
