Chapter 160
Christian looked at Helen’s plate and frowned. He said to Lea, “Don’t be like her. Don’t follow those celebrities and lose weight. They act as though there’s a famine. Those ideals are ludicrous.”
Lea also looked at Helen’s plate. Helen had not eaten much.
Lea wanted to say, ‘Grandpa, you’re thinking too much. Helen’s not that professional.
Helen had wanted to bring Lea down and infuriate her. However, Helen ended up furious and lost her appetite.
Now, Helen knew Lea didn’t get the acceptance letter and assumed that Lea didn’t University. She was overjoyed.
get into Conrad
Lea had seen Helen holding her phone. She wondered who Helen was going to share the good news with.
Still, Lea acknowledged her grandfather’s words.
Helen entered her room, locked the door, and lay on her bed. Then she sent Abigail a text on WhatsApp. [Abigail, my grandfather asked my sister for the acceptance letter just now. She couldn’t take it out but said she got into Conrad University. Do you think she’s telling the truth?]
Through their previous conversations, Helen knew Abigail had a way to investigate..
On one hand, Helen was sharing the news with Abigail. On the other hand, she wanted Abigail to help confirm it.
The Erickson family was in Iverton. They were second only to the Andrews family. Abigail had a way to get information from Conrad University.
Lea had just taken the Conrad University exam and had already offended Abigail. She was courting death. Helen clucked her tongue.
If it weren’t for Lea, Helen wouldn’t been such good friends with Abigail.
After a while, Helen received a text back.
Abigail: [Got it. I’ll check it out.]
Helen wanted to confirm it too.
Not long after, another message came.

Helen laughed so hard she nearly fell off the bed. She thought, ‘Just wait, Lea. You’ll be humiliated at your birthday party!
Helen planned to invite all their classmates to watch then.

Another joined in: If she’s guilty, it’s because she’s Henry’s daughter.]

One of them chimed in: [She’s so responsible. She’s indeed the model of a rich socialite.]
Someone else pointed out: [100 million dollars worth of medicine can help many poor people. That’s so kind of her.]

He sat down on the sofa.
Matilda retracted her hand awkwardly and placed the cup on the coffee table.
“Mom, Helen saw Matilda and ran out of the room to her side. She glanced at Lea and sat down with her mother.
Lea ignored Helen’s scheming gaze and sat down on the single–seater beside Christian.
“Christian, I’m holding a press conference. Can you attend? I’ve already lost a father. Now, I only have a father–in–law.” As Matilda spoke, tears rolled down her face. She almost broke down and wailed.
Christian was silent. He was going to refuse, but seeing Matilda like this, he didn’t speak. His face darkened.
“Grandpa, please help Mom,” Helen begged. She was young and looked pitiful as she cried. “Mom has already lost her father and was heartbroken. She fainted a few times and didn’t eat for the last few days. She has lost a lot of weight and is even sick. She even looks much older now.”
Matilda had indeed lost a lot of weight and aged a lot. The long black dress she wore hung off her. She had a lot of white hair and lost a lot of hair.
Helen and Matilda hugged each other, looking extremely pitiful.
When Christian opened his mouth, Lea’s voice sounded. “Mom, Helen, if Grandpa attends, that will be really bad for you. It will be bad for the Fraley and the Berry families.”
The trio turned to look at Lea. Christian was stunned. Helen and Matilda’s eyes blazed with hidden coldness and viciousness.
Lea added, “This is about selling and transplanting organs. There were also many cases and there

was a very complicated process. I’m afraid the public won’t believe it if you say Mr. Fraley was behind it. After all, the people who really manage the hospital are you and Mr. Donovan…”
“Shut up.” Matilda shouted in a sharp voice.
Helen immediately tried to smooth things over for Matilda. “Lea, my grandfather has already committed suicide. The court has already sentenced him. Why are you still saying that? Do you want to destroy the Fraley and the Berry families?”
Lea looked up at Helen. After a trip overseas, Helen had improved a lot and her tongue had become razor–sharp.
Lea said, “You can stop me from saying or thinking that, but can you do the same for the billions of people watching? What will everyone think if Grandpa attends with you?
“They’ll wonder if Grandpa was involved in this and if he had used his power for other crimes. Can the Berry Group still withstand suspicion now? Grandpa doesn’t even dare to go to the company
now.”
Christian was silent. Lea was so direct that she didn’t even care about embarrassing him.
Lea finished with, “Mom, it won’t be good for you if it leads to any more rumors, right?”
Matilda was speechless. She only wanted Christian to step forward and announce to everyone that the Berry family had her back. With Christian’s support, she would appear powerful. It would help her consolidate her status.
Matilda’s opponents and enemies who were eyeing her would then have second thoughts about making a move on her.
But now, Matilda’s plan had failed.
“You can leave.” Christian was chasing Matilda and Helen away.
“I didn’t think it through. Christian, we’ll leave first,” Matilda said.
Helen supported her mother and glared at Lea. She thought, ‘Just wait. I’ll teach you a lesson at your birthday party.
Matilda and Helen left the house. The driver outside opened the car door for them and they got into the car.
Helen burst out, “That bitch always causes trouble for you,
Mom.”
“She won’t be able to last much longer,” Matilda advised her daughter. There was no need to be
with Lea.

Hearing the car drive away, Christian took a long look at Lea. If it weren’t for Lea, he would have agreed.
Now that Christian thought about it, the matter with Fraley Hospital seemed to have ended too simply,
Then, Christian thought of Henry. A few days ago, Henry came to his house and swore that the Fraley hospital was innocent and was implicated. Henry said he was also innocent and was never involved in any crimes.
Christian did not expect Henry to do such a heartless
Henry and help the Fraley family? I can’t be on the wg. He thought, ‘How can I cleani
side again.
It was all thanks to Lea that Christian could always think clearly at critical moments.
Christian began, “Lea…”
Lea yawned suddenly. “I haven’t slept well lately. I’m going to catch up on my sleep.”

Lea did not want to get involved in Christian’s troubles. She could not even handle her own.
Christian went silent. He suspected Lea had done it on purpose.
The next day, Matilda held a press conference about the Fraley Hospital as the head of the Fraley- family.
The venue was set in the hospital. There was a large number of media. The victims‘ families were invited too so Matilda could apologize to them publicly again.
Lea made an excuse to visit Ewan and went to the hospital.
