Torn Between Love and Hate

Chapter 80 Helen Committed Suicide

Helen sat in the wheelchair and cried. She secretly rejoiced in her mind. Fortunately, when she was

taking pictures of documents in the study, she vaguely heard Jeff’s footsteps outside the door.

After she sent these photos to Joseph, she immediately deleted the chat history and photos.

Otherwise, Ashton would kill her.

As for the surveillance video…

Jeff came back soon. He walked to Ashton and said in a low voice, ‘Mr. Mullen, since a month ago, the

surveillance camera hasn’t captured anything. It has been broken by someone.”

As for who broke the surveillance camera at that time, it was the one who had sneaked into the study.

Helen and Deborah were both suspected at that time.

Without the surveillance video, it was impossible to determine the suspect.

Ashton looked at Helen and warned. “I hope you tell the truth. If it were you, I could pretend to think you

were confused for a while. Maybe I can consider giving you a chance.”

What Ashton said was gentle, but his eyes were full of grimness. He didn’t intend to make anyone an

exception at all.

Helen finally stopped crying. She looked at Ashton with a blank expression and said. “I understand.

You still chose to believe in

Debby.”

“That’s right. How can someone as kind as Debby sneak into your study to get things? So you think it is

me. Since you don’t believe

me, I have nothing to say.”

Ashton didn’t say a word. After all, there was no surveillance video. Without evidence, he couldn’t

doubt anyone.

Helen said softly. “Ashton, I don’t want to embarrass you. I can leave. If you think it will be simple for

me to leave, you can do whatever you want to me.”

Ashton remained silent for a while. Then, he said softly, “Go back to your bedroom and rest early,”

Helen lowered her head and returned to her bedroom with a frustrated expression.

Helen stopped crying and arguing. It made Ashton suddenly feel that he wronged and misunderstood

her.

Actually, Ashton doubted Helen during this period. Even if there was no basis for it, he treated her

indifferently. But he didn’t know one thing. The serv ants in Flora Villa didn’t treat Helen respectfully

because of his attitude.

Ashton felt agitated. He turned back to Deborah’s bedroom.

Deborah had already woken up for a while.

After she vomited blood in the bathroom, she fell asleep for a while because she was exhausted.

But there was a loud noise outside. After Ashton got up and went out, she woke up when she heard the

sound.

Deborah didn’t care about what had happened outside just now.

She reached for the phone on the bedside table and wanted to look at the time.

But she accidentally took Ashton’s mobile phone.

Deborah paused for a moment. Then, she tried to unlock the phone.

Deborah had seen Ashton’s password before. The password was the day his parents passed away.

She quickly entered the password. But the password was wrong.

It was still noisy outside. Ashton would not come back in a short time.

Deborah thought for a while and entered the date of Alyssa’s accident. The screen unlocked.

She breathed a sigh of relief.

After knowing Ashton for many years, Deborah knew his personality well.

Ashton was the kind of person who was hypocritical. He was good at pretending to be affectionate. He

was the one who killed Alyssa, but during this penod, he pretended to be sad.

Ashton wished to engrave the mark of Alyssa on everything around him to show how sad he was and

how deeply he loved his

daughter.

After unlocking the screen, Deborah quickly checked the email and chat history.

Except for these unread emails, she could only check other emails to avoid being noticed by Ashton.

Ashton had called someone yesterday. Deborah heard that the person in charge of Runte Group would

come to the country this

afternoon.

What Joseph wanted most was getting cooperation with Runte Group. Ashton also didn’t want to lose

the golden chance.

Deborah found something important in the chat history. After she finished reading it, she heard

footsteps outside the door.

Deborah immediately exited the application, restored the phone to its original state, and put it on the

bedside table.

Ashton opened the door and walked into the room quietly.

He walked to the side of the bed, leaned over, and touched Deborah’s cheek. He considered whether

he should take her to the hospital

sooner.

Ashton thought, “Deborah passed out in the bathroom just now, and she is still sleeping. Could it be

that something is wrong?”

But he thought again that he had to go to the study to check if Helen had touched his documents.

With this in mind, Ashton took his mobile phone from the bedside table and left the bedroom.

As soon as the door was closed, Deborah immediately opened her eyes.

“He went out again at this time. He must have gone to see Helen. Maybe he won’t come back again.”

Thinking of this, Deborah took her mobile phone and sent Joseph a message. [Steven Moxley, the

president of Runte Group, will arrive at Richmond Airport at 1:20 tomorrow afternoon.]

Ashton deleted Joseph’s contact information. However, he didn’t know that Deborah had Joseph’s

email, and it was not named

Joseph.

It was early morning at this time. Deborah didn’t plan to wait for Joseph’s reply. She deleted the email

record and was about to sleep.

But just as she closed her eyes, she received Joseph’s reply. “Good job.”

Deborah immediately replied to Joseph. [I want to see Alyssa.]

But this time, Joseph didn’t reply to her.

Ashton walked directly to the study.

When he walked to the study’s door and was about to open the door, he noticed Helen’s bedroom door

was unlatched.

It was quiet inside.

Ashton recalled Helen’s desolate expression before she returned to the bedroom. He suddenly felt

something was wrong.

He held the doorknob of the study’s door. But the next second, he took his hand back.

Ashton turned around and walked to the door of Helen’s bedroom. He knocked on the door and asked,

“Helen, are you sleeping?”

There was no response inside.

Ashton felt a little nervous. He opened the door suddenly.

Then, he saw Helen lying on the floor. The wheelchair fell over next to her.

A fruit knife fell from her hand. The wound on her wrist was clear. The blood was still flowing out.

The carpet under Helen’s hands was stained red.

Ashton hurned over. He suddenly felt regretful at this moment. He was so stu pid.

He doubted Helen. Helen’s life had been ruined because f him, but he still doubted her recently.

Ashton panicked. He hurriedly picked Helen up and said, “Helen, why didn’t you tell me well? How

could you hurt yourself?”

He carried her out of the bedroom and went downstairs. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Helen’s face was covered with tears. She cried, “Why do you come to see me again? You don’t believe

me. Will you believe me after !

die?”

Ashton’s voice was full of guilt. I’m sorry, Helen. I have caused you too much grievance because of

Alyssa’s death. It will never happen again in the future. Hold on. I will take you to the hospital now.”

Helen cried in his arms. When Ashton hurriedly went downstairs. Jeff came over.

Jeff’s voice was urgent. “Mr. Mullen, I suddenly received a call from my family. Something happened to

my mother. I have to ask for a leave. I can’t go to the airport tomorrow to pick up Mr. Moxley.”

When Jeff finished speaking, he noticed Helen in Ashton’s arms, and Helen’s wrist was bleeding.

Jeff was startled. He hurriedly stepped aside.

Ashton was worried about Helen, so he didn’t have time to think about it. He said, “You can ask

someone else to pick up Mr. Moxley.

Let Chad go.”

Anyway, it was just a pick-up at the airport. After Steven arrived at Mullen Group, Ashton would receive

him in person.

Jeff was not at ease. He couldn’t help turning around and asking, “Can Chad do it? After all, he is just a

driver. The cooperation with Runte Group is important. If something goes wrong, we…”

When it was another time, Ashton might have to think about it.

But Helen was in an emergency. Ashton didn’t have time to think about it.

While Ashton was in a hurry to get into the car, he replied, “It’s just picking up someone. Nothing will

happen. Tell Chad about this.”
