Chapter 253 She Decided To Keep The Child
That evening, after dining at Gavin’s restaurant, the events that followed replayed vividly in Helena’s mind.
Gavin had offered to drive her home, but she firmly declined. To put an end to his advances, she walked away with Matthew instead.
When they arrived at her apartment, just as she was about to step out of the car, the door locks clicked shut, She tumed to Matthew with a puzzled expression.

Matthew’s gaze fell on her soft, slightly parted lips. He looked as if he were handling Beaned in and pressed a swift kiss to her lips.
The car was dimly lit, illuminated only by the faint orange glow of the street lights outside. The soft light cast shadows across Matthew’s face, revealing the flush spreading across his cheeks.
Helena caught sight of the redness on his face, and for a fleeting moment, her heart skipped a beat.
Perhaps it was the alcohol, or maybe it was a feeling she couldn’t quite put into words, but Helena leaned forward suddenly. She cupped Matthew’s face and kissed him back without hesitation
she thought she was in control, but Matthew quickly turned the tables, taking charge of the kiss.
The car filled with an intimate warmth, punctuated by their lisses and the sound of their quickened breath
Helena quickly snapped back to reality, and she abruptly pushed him away.
What the hell was she doing?
He was her best friend’s younger brother!
“What’s wrong?” Matthew asked, bewildered.
Helena hastily adjusted her clothes, avoiding his gaze.“1-1 drank too much, so don’t take it seriously.”
without waiting for a reply, she fumbled with the door and got out of the car. After that, she fled into her apartment.
Since that night, she had been avoiding Matthew:
#1 know you weren’t drunk that night.”
Matthew’s voice pulled her back to the present
Helena looked up, meeting his wounded yet determined gaze. “I was engaged once, and I’m older than you. We’re not a good match.”
“That’s not a valid reason,” Matthew said, stepping closer. “Even if you had been married or were ten years older than me, I would still feel the same. I like you, Helena. That’s all that matters. Besides, how can you say we’re incompatible when we’ve never even tried being together?
“Matthew, we don’t need to try to know. You’re Whitney’s younger brother, so I don’t want to hurt you can we just pretend that night never happened?” Helena asked softly as if she was begging him.

Yvette was shocked when she found our Willory was pregnant and Noel was the father of the child. She was speechless for several moments before adamantly declaring her intent to become the child’s godinother.
Whitney had made up her mind. Regardless of whether she ended up with Noel, she would keep the child
That sight, Whitney had a restless sleep
She decant of the man chasing her with the knife again. She ran as fast as she could, but the gr
The man’s laughter was ruel and chilling as he plunged the knite toward her stomacht. “N–No! Douri!”
the ground beneath her crumbled into the edge of a clift.
Whitney jolted awake. At that moment, er forehead was damp with sweat. Her first instinct was to reach for her abdomen.
Before she could fully orient herself, a tail shadow loomed closer. Sul trapped in her glansare, she mistook the figure for the man. She grabbed her pillow and swung it wildly at the shadow. At the same time, she screamed for help.
