Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 681: Revenge On Jane 

Helen’s POV:

Once Libby and Jane were gone, Anya walked up to me and considerately said, "I‘ll give you a day off.Go home and rest.You deserve it."

"Thank God, it‘s over.But please, save us trouble in the future," Phil retorted.

He was as sharp–tongued as ever.But even though he said such words, I knew he would help me when I needed it.

I looked at the two of them, moved.I was so lucky to have such good bosses.

"Thank you so much.I‘m really sorry for inconveniencing you," I solemnly said.

I did not know what else to say to express my gratitude.

The two did not say anything more and just drove away.I went to the parking space on the other side.

George had driven me here today.He had been waiting for me in the car for a while now.

Because of his identity, it was inconvenient for him to appear in the public gallery.

Well, I did not intend to expose our relationship anyway.I had asked him to go back and wait for the news, but he insisted on waiting for me.

So, even though I was reluctant, I had to agree.

As soon as I stepped out of the courthouse, I received a message from George.I walked toward his car.

When I got near, the door on the driver‘s side opened.

George got out and, to my surprise, sat in the passenger seat.He did not ask about the verdict of the lawsuit and just said, "You drive."

I looked at him with a puzzled expression but did not refuse.

With that, I threw my bag into the backseat and sat behind the wheel.

Thankfully, he did not have much complaints about my driving skills like last time.

"Why‘d you let me drive? Aren‘t you worried i‘ll damage your luxury car?" I asked sarcastically

"I‘m not.I believe in Raul.Since you learned from him, I believe your driving skills won‘t be as bad as before.I have confidence in him," George replied while fiddling with his iPad for work–related stuff.

He did not even raise his head to look at me.

Why couldn‘t he just praise me for once? It was true that Raul was a good teacher.But I was also a good student! I shot daggers at him.

"Do you wanna go to the company?" I asked, seeing that he was busy with work.

If he had work to do, then why did he insist on waiting for me? Would the hearing go more smoothly if he waited outside? "No need.Let‘s just go home.I‘m almost done,"

George answered dully.

"Am I your driver?"

I complained, but I still drove to his apartment nevertheless.He lived in the city center anyway.It would not take long to drive him there from the courthouse.

George finished his work at the same time I parked the car in the parking lot.He looked outside the window and then turned to me with a satisfied smile.

Surprisingly, he held me in a tight embrace and stroked my hair with his warm hand.

"Good girl."

Confused, I pushed him away, unfastened my seatbelt, and got out of the car.

George did not seem to get annoyed.He got out of the car shortly after and followed me.

With his iPad in one hand, he held my hand in the other.He interlocked his fingers with mine, and we walked to the elevator hand in hand.

When we reached the elevator banks, we happened to see Libby and Jane, who had also just come back from the courthouse.

They arrived before me and George and were already in the elevator.

It seemed that Libby had returned to her usual elegant and gentle self, quite the opposite of the woman who was in hysterics and threatening me outside the courthouse.

The smile on George‘s face faltered.

He nodded at the two out of politeness, but I merely glanced at them.I had never been this calm in front of Libby and her daughter.

Well, as long as they did not say or do anything to offend me, I would not snap at them.

But if they dared to play tricks on me, I would be sure to make them have the taste of their own medicine.

As the elevator arrived and we walked in, a deafening silence filled the space.It was Libby who broke the silence.

"George, can we talk in private?" she asked while looking at George with doe eyes.

If it were someone else, they would surely agree to her request without hesitation.I looked at him, curious if he would say yes.

With George‘s character and upbringing, he would not refuse an elder, would he? Maybe Libby was aware of this, so she made such blatant request to provoke me. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Unfortunately for her, she miscalculated.

"What‘s the matter? Whatever you want to say to me, you can say it now," George replied.

Although his tone was polite, his attitude was firm.

What was more, he tightened his grip on my hand and slightly stepped forward as if he were protecting me.I could not help but stare at his handsome side profile.I must admit, I was touched by his gesture.

Libby glanced at me sideways.I could tell that she was unhappy with George‘s attitude, but she remained composed.

"If you say so.Well, you‘ve heard about Jane and Helen‘s relationship, right? I was just wondering when you and Helen got together.Is it before or after Jane came back? Did her mother agree with your relationship?" I could not help but sneer.

How dare this woman mention my mother? George gently stroked his thumb against the back of my hand, comforting me.He did not answer Libby‘s question and just waited for her to finish what she had to say.

"George, I don‘t mean to pry.I just don‘t want you to be deceived.I think I have the right to believe that she and her mother approached you for a reason.I‘m worried that this woman doesn‘t even love you and is simply using you to have revenge on Jane."

Her tone was full of concern, but her words meant otherwise.I had never seen such a person who dared to sow dissension so blatantly.

Infuriated, I stepped forward and snapped, "You know you‘ve done something wrong, so you‘re afraid that I’ll take revenge.It‘s true.I want to take revenge.But so what? An eye for an eye!"

Wrong move.

As soon as I said those words, a sinking feeling emerged at the pit of my stomach I anxiously peeked at George from the corner of my eye.

Did he misunderstand what I had said? I only said those words in a fit of anger.

It was only after I finished speaking that I realized I had jumped into Libby‘s trap.

George looked into my eye, his face as calm as it usually was.

Ironically, he seemed to be looking at me with encouragement.

Was he not angry? I was stunned.

Meanwhile, Libby smiled smugly as if she had uncovered a dirty secret of mine.

"George, did you hear what she said? She finally spoke out her real intentions.Helen is as scheming as her mother.She‘ll do whatever it takes to have you.I‘m afraid she‘s just deceiving you."

"Ma‘am, are you doubting my judgment? Do you seriously think I can‘t tell the truth from the lie?"

George asked with a sneer.His questions rendered Libby speechless.

For a second, she almost dropped her facade and revealed her disdain.

However, no amount of restraint could hide the fierce look on her face.

Just then, the elevator door opened.

Libby and Jane had arrived at their floor.But before stepping out, the former said, "Did your parents approve of your relationship?"

Without waiting for George‘s reply, she pulled Jane‘s hand and led her out of the elevator.

Now, only George and I were left in the elevator.

"Haven‘t you told your parents about me? When will I get to meet them?" I asked while staring at the dangerous gleam in his eyes.

George slowly approached me.I had a bad feeling about this, so I unconsciously took a step back.He kept walking toward me until my back hit the wall.

"Did you agree to be with me just so you could have revenge on Jane? Answer me," George coldly asked.

I averted my gaze and answered guiltily, "I just said that to piss Libby off."

In all honesty, it was indeed one of the reasons why I agreed to be with George.But, of course, that was not the main reason why.I was not stupid.I would not throw my happiness away just to have revenge on those two.

George heaved a sigh and held me in his arms.

"I‘m glad that I‘m of use to you," he whispered in my ear.

Feeling warm in my heart.I put my arms around George‘s neck, stood on tiptoe, and kissed him.

"Thank you, George."

All of a sudden, his eyes lit up with lust.He held my waist with one hand and held the back of my head with the other.

Then, ever so slowly, he lowered his head and kissed me.

As we kissed, he pulled the hem of my clothes in anticipation.I could feel his lust and desire through his kiss.I gently pushed him on the chest and reminded him, "Not here. Let‘s go home first."

We were still inside the elevator.

Although I felt hot all over, we could not do it here.

When the elevator door opened, George tightened his grasp on my waist, picked me up, and walked out with me in his arms.

When we got in front of his unit, he reached out his hand and quickly unlocked the door with his fingerprint.

The instant the door opened, our overwhelming desire was the only thing we could think of.
