Chapter 121 I’ll Call You an Ambulance

+8 Pearls

Now that she was officially being accepted into the Graysons, Helen no longer needed to hold back–she could finally put Caroline in her place.

Every time she thought about the insults, the humiliation, and the way Caroline used to treat her like dirt, her chest burned with rage.

This time, she was going to crush Caroline under her heel–break her pride and make her regret ever crossing her.

As her thoughts turned darker, her eyes grew cold and tense.

Though her head was slightly bowed, Teresa caught that sudden shift in her expression.

And it only confirmed what she’d long suspected–Helen was far from the innocent woman she pretended to be.

Still, Teresa smiled and continued, “Helen, you’ve cooked for two days straight–you must be tired. I don’t have any plans this afternoon, so I’ll handle dinner. You can guide me through it; how about that?”

Helen froze. Her whole body went stiff.

If she coached Teresa in the kitchen, the truth would come out–she didn’t know how to cook at all.

Absolutely not. Before she got pregnant, she couldn’t let Teresa find out she’d been lying from the very beginning.

But for a moment, she didn’t know how to respond.

She stayed silent, so Teresa added gently, “Are you worried I won’t be able to learn? Don’t worry–I won’t blame you if it doesn’t turn out great.”

Helen quickly waved her hands and said, “No, no, Teresa. It’s not that at all.”

Of course, Terasa knew that wasn’t the real reason. “Then it’s settled,” she said cheerfully. “Now sit down and have some jackfruit. I’m going to lie down for a bit

She stood and walked back to her room.

Helen bit her lip. The sweet aroma of the jackfruit lingered in the air, but she had no appetite at all.

What should I do?

What she didn’t know was that Teresa already knew every one of her lies. And she had decided–Helen was going to be out of this house by tonight.

No matter what Helen came up with, it wouldn’t matter

Two hours later, Teresa woke up and came into the living room, but Helen was nowhere in sight.

Just then, she saw one of the maids heading into the kitchen. “Where did Helen go?” she asked.

The maid replied, “Ms. Somerton said she was feeling a little dizzy and went to lie down in the room.”

Chapter 121 I’ll Call You an Ambulance

Without another word, Teresa headed straight to Helen’s room and knocked firmly on the door.

“Helen? Are you alright?”

At first, Helen didn’t respond. But when she heard Teresa knocking again–louder this time–she had no choice but to open the door.

“Teresa, I just feel a little lightheaded. My whole body’s weak.”

Teresa’s brows furrowed with concern, and she said, “You shouldn’t ignore symptoms like that. I’ll call for a cab and have you taken to the hospital.”

“No, that’s not nec-” Before Helen could finish, Teresa had already left the doorway and grabbed the phone in the living room. “Hello? Yes, 91?”

Her voice was loud–so loud that it carried all the way to Helen, who was standing just outside the bedroom door.

Helen panicked. She hadn’t meant to take it that far. It was just an act. But now Teresa was actually calling for an ambulance?

When she heard Teresa giving out the home address over the phone, Helen couldn’t keep up the act any longer. She rushed into the living room, blurting out, “Teresa, it’s an old condition. I just need to rest–it’ll pass after a night’s sleep.”

But Teresa kept talking into the phone like she hadn’t heard her at all. Only after she’d hung up did she look at Helen and frown. “You’re sick and still walking around? Go lie down. The ambulance will be here any minute.”

She set the phone on the coffee table, took Helen’s arm, and gently but firmly led her back to the room.

Helen looked miserable–but not because she was unwell. She was desperate.

Inside the ambulance.

The lights inside were dim, and the tension hung thick in the air.
