Charlotte was struck dumb. “You’re the one who leaked the information about our family? You did all these behind our back?”
“That’s right. I did it,” Helena admitted. “Your father might have declared bankruptcy, but he was capable of hiding this from everyone, including the Sterling family. Initially, they even thought that they could benefit from working closely with your family.”
“But once the information got out, the Sterling family immediately regretted. Hector, too, ditched you. Eventually, Amanda and Luna tricked you and caused you to lose everything. I was glad to see how things turned out, and seeing your clueless and dumb face makes me happy. But too bad–Luna got ahead of me and married Hector.”
Charlotte gritted her teeth. “But Hector is yours now. You could have taught Luna a lesson if you wish to instead of destroying her. Why did you do that?”
“Excuse me?” Helena immediately spoke in a more hostile manner. “I’ve never done anything against the law, and you have no evidence against me. You better don’t test my patience. I’m warning you!”
“You’ll get what you deserve,” Charlotte said and left.
“Don’t you want to know who ruined your father’s life?” Helena asked all of a sudden.
Charlotte stopped walking, but she did not turn around. “What makes you think I’ll believe you?”
“Make your own judgment then. I’m sure you’re not an idiot.” Helena took out a letter and said, “Your father wrote this to my brother, and I have a copy of it. I’m sure you can recognize your father’s handwriting, right?”
Charlotte took a glance at the letter and hesitated for a moment, but decided to turn around.
Just when she was about the retrieve the letter, Helena retracted her hand and raised her brows. “What can I get in return for giving you this letter?”
“What do you want from me?” Charlotte asked icily.
“I want you to stay away from Hector,” Helena said condescendingly. “Even if he wants to see you, you have to think of ways to avoid him!”
“You don’t have to tell me this. I don’t even want to see him anymore,” Charlotte said with disdain.
