Chapter 194:
That day, Alden drove Helena to the station.
Feeling anxious about being seen, Helena quickly scanned her surroundings as she walked to the time clock, hoping her colleagues hadn’t noticed her arrival.
As she looked around again, a familiar figure caught her eye.
“Dario? Why are you here?” Helena exclaimed, surprised.
Standing at the entrance, Dario was just swiping his card and smiled at her. “I work at Nexus TV too, remember p>
To keep his cover intact, Helena quickly swiped her card, then discreetly pulled him aside. “Haven’t you already accomplished what you came for? You don’t need to keep an eye on me anymore p>
Dario’s smile didn’t waver. “What if my reason is that I simply enjoy your company too much, Helena p>
Helena narrowed her eyes slightly, skeptical. “Or is it that the Harrison family isn’t ready to back down p>
Dario exhaled dramatically, a playful tone in his voice. “You’re too perceptive for your own good p>
His tone then shifted to sincerity. “Seriously, though, the Harrison family still wants a meeting. Just meet them once before deciding on your future interactions p>
Helena felt uneasy. After a brief pause, she said, “Let’s wait until my father is better. I want him with me if I meet them p>
Helena worried about how her father might respond to the Harrison family and didn’t want him to feel excluded or hurt. Dario understood and handed her a folder.
“What’s this?” Helena murmured, opening it to find “Divorce Agreement” written on the front, which startled her.
“The Harrison family prepared this for you,” Dario said. “They’re ready to support you with whatever you need, including your divorce from Alden.” He then showed her the contents, detailing Alden’s assets as investigated by the Harrison family. “The Harrison family has looked into Alden’s assets. Everything they found is listed here. According to their information, you two never signed a prenup, so if a divorce were to happen, the sum you’d receive would be substantial p>
The sum mentioned was indeed substantial, enough to alter someone’s life dramatically.
Yet Helena only glanced over the document before tucking it into her bag, her interest in the financial details minimal.

“Helena! What are you still doing here? I have bad news for you!” a voice called out from across the room.
Tessa hurried over with a worried look. She swiftly pulled Helena towards the office.
In a state of bewilderment, Helena was propelled into her chair and directed by Tessa to examine the webpage displayed on her monitor.
Soon, Helena’s face mirrored Tessa’s concern.
Recently, Alden’s fame had reached new heights.
His striking appearance and captivating backstory had garnered him an extensive fan base.
These fans meticulously analyzed every interview of Alden’s they could find, paying close attention to each detail.
Since Helena had conducted all of Alden’s interviews after his return to the country, she had become the focus of rampant fan speculation and rumors.
“How has she managed to get so many interviews with Alden, who’s known for his reserved nature p>
“Must be her ‘girl-next-door’ act, huh? Have you seen her interview video where she competed for the news anchor position at Nexus TV? She presented herself as a champion for the deaf community—obviously well-prepared. And who do you think she did it for? Isn’t it obvious p>
“Such a strategist! She exploited Alden’s past illness to gain proximity to him p>
“Is she really putting in all this effort just to snag Alden p>
“Alden is already married! Is she aiming to be a homewrecker p>
“She’s definitely punching above her weight p>
“Completely without shame p>
The relentless stream of insults online, as sharp as needles, seemed to stab at Helena’s eyes.
She stared at the screen, her expression vacant, as Betsey sneered beside her.
“This business demands genuine talent. Those who try to advance by currying favor with influential men eventually face consequences p>
Unable to remain silent, Dominick defended Helena. “Enough, Betsey! You’re wrong about Helena. She doesn’t need to curry favor with Mr. Wilson. You don’t know that she p>
Just as he was on the verge of revealing Helena’s true connection with Alden, Helena intervened swiftly, covering his mouth.
