Following the incident at Lailing Villa, she also halfâbeat the people she had stationed there to a pulp. Such ruthless actions left Yvette too afraid to oppose her!
She wiped away her tears and tossed her phone aside; now, the only person she could rely on was Xavier. Before leaving home, she specifically left something for Selena, which she might soon get to see..
At the Flynn residence, Selena was having dinner. She hadnât seen Yvette all day but caught a few glimpses of Xavier. âWhereâs Yverne? Why havenât I seen her today!â
Xavierâs expression wi was unpleasant. âShe went back to her family.â
Selena gave Xavier a deep look. âYouâll take good care of Yvette, right?
Reassured by his affirmative nod, Selena finally relaxed. She walked into the living room and suddenly noticed a paper on the side cabinet. When she spread it opens, she realized it was Yvetteâs pregnancy report. The doctor Yvette hired was a private one, and the report included a gender section.

Sheâs the one bringing Xavier furrowed his brow, slowly recounting the words of Yasmine and Yvette to Selena Hearing this, Selena was stunned into silence for a full two minutes before snapping back to focus. âWe must protect the child! At any costâ she demanded fiercely, clenching her fists tightly. âXavier, no matter what it takes. It was as if she was speaking both to Xavier and to herself In the paychiatric hospital, Helen had just taken her medication. But as soon as the nurse turned her back, Helen spat it out. This had been her routine for days, and she couldnât bear living like this any longer.
Before she could even lie down for a rest, someone called her out, Helen, thereâs someone here to see you.â
Someone was here to see her? Who could it be? Helen felt a rush of excitement, it had to be either Xavier or her parents, or perhaps Irene. With hope, she rushed out, only to find that it was indeed Selena who had come to see her âMom Why did it take you so long to come see me?â Helen looked at Selena sadly. She had waited in the detention center for a long time, and even in the psychiatric hospital, she had kept hoping for Selena to visit Helen was sure her mom would come and save her.
Selena looked at her frail daughter, her nose tingling as tears filled her eyes. âHelen, I know youâve been wronged.â
âMom, are you here to rescue me!â Helen looked up at Selena with wide, pleading eyes.
Selena avoided her gaze and pulled Yvetteâs test results out of her bag to show her. âHelen, take a look at thisâ
âWhatâs this?â Helen unfolded the paper to find Yvetteâs test report. She lingered over the gender section, her brows drawing together slightly âMom, is she having a boy!â
Selena nodded approvingly. âBack when your brother was with that awful woman, there wasnât even a peep. But now, look, itâs a boy. Her gaze shifted complicatedly to Helen, which made Helen feel a bit uneasy. âMom, why are you looking at me like that?
Selena took her hand firmly. âHelen, Iâm sorryâ
âMom, what are you talking about?â She suddenly had a bad feeling about ut this.
Just as expected, Selena choked up, saying. âHelen, itâs me and your brother who let you down. Just take the blame for the Luxury Lane Villas incident.â
Helen looked in shock at her mother, Selena, unable to believe those words came from her. âMom, what are you saying? You already know about the villa incident? Then you should know it wasnât mel It was Yvette who framed me on purpose!â Helerâs eyes widened.
Selenaâs eyes were red, her lips trembling as she spoke, âHelen, just do it for the Flynn family about to find evidence. And to protect Yvette, you as she had been, thinking her mom, who loved her the most. dint, was this the outcome die received?
âHa, for the Flynn family? So youâre planning to sacrilice me? Is it because of Yasmiy- rather sacrifice me?â Tears streamed down Helenâs face. She just realized how ri would do anything to save her. Yet after begging for days, hoping for the same Selena straightened her back. Initially, she felt bad for her daughter, bu thought of the child Yvette was carrying steeled her resolve. âHelen, this isnât up to you. The only thing you can do now is to admit you c 1/2 the villa incident.â
9:45 AM Chapter 217 âWhy? I didnât do it, so why should I admit to it? Mom, Iâm so disappointed in you. Just because of the child sheâs carrying, youâre willing to give up on your own daughter!â Helenâs eyes flashed with boundless disappointment. In this moment, she wished Selena had never showed up. It would be better than hearing such cruel words from her own motherâs mouth.
âHelen, donât be stubborn. Youâre part of the Flynn family. Over the years, Iâve spoiled and protected you, no matter the trouble youâve caused. But now itâs time for you to contribute to the Flynn family.â Selena said, standing up slowly and looking down at Helen with authority.

This unyielding pressure made Helen feel lost. She lowered her eyes, a bitter smile on her face, and stood up as well. âMom, I wonât admit to Yasmine will find the evidence. I wonât help Yvette,â she declared, turning away without a backward glance.
Selena watched her daughterâs desolate figure fade into the distance. She reached out a hand towards Helenâs back, but words failed her.

This time, she returned with the hope of uncovering new clues. She had already scoured the storage room before, finding nothing. strange. Now, she even searched her parentsâ room, hoping to find something that might restore her memory.
But as she stepped into the master bedroom, familiar things filled her eyes and nearly brought her to tears. That soft bed held so many memories for her, countless nights when sheâd cling to her mom, begging for a story. âMom, I want to hear that story!â
