Goodbye You Never Loved Me novel (Martha and Stefan) novel Chapter 687

Chapter 687 The Only One I Like is You

Martha sighed silently and thought, "Helen bore some resemblance to my old self. But I'm lucky enough to have Jimmy as my pillar of support back then. When Jimmy fell ill, my biggest wish was for him to recover and live a healthy life. However, Helen is different. Revenge was what kept her going until this day."

Martha could sense the deep hatred in Helen's eyes and sighed again before speaking up, "Helen, have you ever thought that maybe they've received their punishment?"

Helen furrowed her brows slightly and looked at Martha with a blank expression. After a moment of silence, she opened her lips slightly and clenched her hand into a fist. "But I haven't got my revenge," she said.

Martha reached out to hold Helen's hand gently and spoke in a soothing tone, "Revenge shouldn't be the priority of your entire life. Don't lose yourself in it."

Although she knew better than to advise someone without understanding their pain first-hand, Martha couldn't help but feel uneasy about seeing such hatred consume someone so young.

Helen lowered her eyes and whispered softly, "It is my luck to meet you."

"Alright now," Martha smiled warmly at the delicate girl beside her. "It's getting late; you should go rest."

With a quiet response from Helen as acknowledgement, Martha walked Helen out of the door.

However, just as the door closed, Helen suddenly turned her head with an ironic smile on her lips while muttering under her breath, "Ever since I was humiliated all those years ago, there has only been one thing left for me - revenge."

"Meeting you really is my luck," continued Helen sarcastically while smirking coldly. "But meeting me? That's your misfortune."

Though she was grateful for being helped after all these years, Helen, who had been living in hell, would not do anything good in return.

Suppressing any last bit of pity within herself, Helen let out another cold laugh before walking away.

She had nothing left except for revenge, and climbing higher seemed like an easy way out.

In the room, Martha sat on the sofa with a low mood after Helen left. She thought about a lot of things, including the days when she was tormented by Stefan, the days when she was alone with Jimmy abroad, and the desperate days when Jimmy fell ill. Those scenes kept playing in her mind and made her heart ache.

When Stefan came out of his room, he saw Martha sitting alone on the sofa with tears in her eyes. He walked over quickly and hugged her shoulder.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

Martha wiped away tears from her eyes and buried herself in his arms. "Nothing," she said. "I just suddenly remembered how you used to abuse me."

Stefan tightened his grip on Martha's hand and looked guilty as he gazed into her dark eyes.

Before he could say anything, Martha reached out and pinched his waist tightly. "If you ever treat me badly again," she said firmly, "I won't let you get away with it."

"I won't," Stefan whispered softly as he comforted her. His heart ached for her even more now that he knew what kind of person he used to be.

He couldn't understand how someone like him could have done such terrible things before.

Martha buried herself deeper into his embrace as she wiped away tears from her face.

After calming down a bit, Stefan asked in a deep voice, "What did Helen say to you?"

He knew that Martha wasn't someone who would dwell too much on past events, so there must be something that Helen had said to upset Martha so much earlier.

However, what exactly did Helen say that caused such an emotional reaction from Martha?
