Relentless Pursuit After Divorce-Chapter 1916: Summer Hall Side Story (118)

"Does Leanne Richards always treat you like this?"

If she’d known, she should have brought up old scores, dug everything up from the past, so that old woman could never bounce back in this lifetime.

Seeing her mother look both angry and heartbroken, Helen Melendy shook her head nonchalantly and said:

"Mom, don’t worry, I’m fine. Leanne Richards just gets a temporary satisfaction from talking, she doesn’t affect me otherwise. The more she curses, the worse it is for her."

Saying this, she leaned towards Evelyn Taylor and whispered:

"My husband will help me."

The sweet tone in her voice made Elly Campbell, who was listening beside them, burst into laughter.

Helen Melendy shot her a glare, "What are you laughing at? When you and Adam Jones show off your affection, it almost makes my teeth hurt."

"Yes, yes, yes, I was wrong."

Evelyn Taylor looked at her daughter with a smile, raised her hand to ruffle her hair, her face full of relief.

Then she turned her gaze to Elly Campbell and said:

"Elly, you don’t mind me calling you that, do you?"

"Auntie, you’re an elder, isn’t it proper for you to address me this way?"

Elly Campbell replied with a smile. It was her first time seeing Evelyn Taylor in person and observing how she defended Helen, and she truly felt happy for Helen.

Having a family to protect her meant Helen wouldn’t be so alone in the future.

"Elly, over the years, it’s been such a blessing for Helen to have had your care. Auntie thanks you here."

Evelyn Taylor sincerely thanked Elly Campbell.

She knew what kind of people Helen had been facing, those who considered themselves noble and picked on her daughter for no reason.

She’d seen the faces of such wealthy people too many times, knew without asking how they would twist their words or directly humiliate her daughter.

Luckily, with the support of someone like Elly Campbell with status, Helen’s life had been a bit easier.

Elly Campbell felt a little embarrassed, "Auntie, you’re overstating things. I didn’t take care of Helen; don’t underestimate her. Getting to where she is now is entirely her own doing."

Evelyn Taylor nodded with a smile, looking at Helen Melendy with eyes full of warmth and love, "Of course, Helen is very capable, this auntie doesn’t deny."

"Mom..."

Originally, Helen Melendy, who was bragging confidently about her love life, didn’t feel shy, but her mother’s unabashed praise made her blush.

Evelyn Taylor cast a glance at her and continued speaking to Elly Campbell: 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

"Auntie has already heard from her oldest brother. During that time, when something happened to her, all the expenses were covered by you, just to shut up people like Leanne Richards. You even specially funded a research line for her to develop an antidote. In this world, even real sisters might not do such things. Auntie is truly grateful to you and happy that Helen has a sister like you."

Elly Campbell blushed at the praise, "Auntie, these are just small things, don’t worry about it."

"Speaking of her older brother, there’s something mom wants to address on behalf of Elly."

Helen Melendy seized the opportunity to complain.

Upon hearing this, Elly Campbell knew what Helen was about to bring up, but she only chuckled on the side without stopping her.

"What is it? Did your brother bully Elly?"

Evelyn Taylor’s face darkened, and her pretty eyes narrowed dangerously, "If he dares to bully Elly, I’ll skin him when we get back. Tell me, no need to cover for him."

Helen Melendy nodded, completely forgetting that her older brother had gifted her several global property access gold cards just the day before.
