"Who the hell do you think you are to talk about marrying me?" Helen stormed up to him and pressed a kitchen knife to his throat. "Get lost!"
Edwin's face turned pale. He rushed over and snatched the knife from her hand. "What are you doing?"
Helen spun around to face her father as tears rolled down her face. "Dad, don't tell me you want me to marry him too? If that's the case, I might as well die!"
Edwin was already in a foul mood from work. The last thing he wanted was more whining and drama. Her crying grated on his nerves.
He snapped without thinking, "Go die if that's what you want! You disgraceful brat!"
Most of their neighbors already knew what had happened to Helen. In a day or two, the whole neighborhood would be gossiping about it.
Edwin's reputation was completely ruined. How could he ever face anyone again?
Upon hearing that, Helen was stunned. Whenever she cried or threw a tantrum, her father had always
rushed to console her.
But now, he had actually told her to die.
A wave of hopelessness washed over her. Devastated, she turned and ran to Liam with tears still streaming down her face. "Uncle Liam, my dad doesn't love me anymore... boohoo!" She clutched his arm as she
sobbed.
Besides Edwin, Liam had always been the one who doted on her the most. No matter what she did, he always had her back.
She clung to the hope that Liam wouldn't disdain her the way Edwin had. However, Liam's eyes were filled with something unreadable as he looked at her.
He had always thought Helen was clever, exceptional, with a kind of natural grace.
He believed she was destined to marry into a powerful family, shining like a prestige star for all to admire.
But thinking back now, every time Helen ran into trouble, she reacted the same way. She would bawl her eyes out and threaten to kill herself.
She couldn't hold on to her perfect rich fiancé, and on top of that, she'd made a scandal of it.
None of this was what he had envisioned for her.
Then his thoughts drifted to Caroline. He used to think she was the type born for a life of toil-plain, average, with no future.
He thought that she would fall apart after leaving the Somertons. But surprisingly, s... d taken good care of herself and even opened her own restaurant.
When it came to love, she had earned the affection of the man whom everyone thinks highly of.
With Blake by her side, it would be fine if Caroline wanted to close down her restaurant,

"Uncle Liam? Why aren't you saying anything?" Helen's choked voice broke through his thoughts.noveldrama
Liam blinked and looked at her. "What do you want me to say? You're an adult now. You need to take responsibility for the consequences of your own actions."
He shook off her hand coldly and strode into his room.
Helen stared after him, feeling heartbroken.
The next moment, her knees gave way and she nearly collapsed-until a pair of hands caught her just in time.
"Helen, are you okay?"
Ruth helped her to her feet. "Come, sit down on the couch for a bit."
Jamie jumped up as soon as he saw his sister. "Ruth! What are you doing here?"
Ruth gave him a cold glance and ignored him.
Jamie pressed on. "Ruth, the baby in Helen's belly is really mine. Please, talk to her for me. Help me convince her to marry me."
Last time, Ruth had told him that even if the baby was his, he shouldn't dream of marrying Helen.
He knew that she was afraid of the Graysons back then.
But now, the Graysons had cast Helen aside. There were no more obstacles for them to be together. Ruth must have come to help him now.
To his shock, Ruth said, “Stop dreaming. There's no way Helen would marry you."
The hopeful smile Jamie had just managed to muster froze on his face. "Why not? You're my sister. Won't you help me?"
Ruth replied, "Stop making a scene. Go home."
Jamie looked at her, utterly baffled. Before he could say more, Ruth grabbed him and dragged him toward the door. "Leave now. I'll explain everything to you later.”
With that, she shut the door behind him, leaving him locked outside.
When she turned back, all three people inside were staring at her.
She forced a smile and explained, "Jamie may be my brother, but I know what kind of person he is. He's not good enough for Helen."
Hearing that, Helen's tear-streaked face finally lifted with pride.
Of course. How could trash like Jamie be good enough for me? He's way out of my league.
Alaina, however, sighed. "That may be true, but now that so many people know about Helen's situation, I'm afraid it'll be hard for her to find a good match in the future."
