Chapter 63
Sean was staring at Helen’s fresh face, unable to repress the smugness.
Did she really just try to outwit him? Laughable!
He certainly thought himself a genius–all he had to do was attribute everything to his father, and nonewould be the wiser. After all, Helen and her family would never verify anything with his father!
However, Helen was fiddling with her glass, not quite believing Sean.
Gina nudged her with her elbow, snapping, “Could you give it a rest already? Mr. Wesley has helped
hurt his feelings if you kept doubting him!”
you so many times–vou
“Yeah, I know.” Helen nodded.
Her mother had a point–she was out of line.
Just then, her employees began gossiping.
“Hey, did you hear that someone took out Leo Grayson?”
“Yeah. West City’s underbelly is now a mess,” a man in glasses said.
“Really?” Helen quickly asked just then. “Did that really happen?”
The man nodded repeatedly. “Of course. One of my friends works at Skymex.”
Helen and Gina both gasped and turned toward Sean, presuming that he had done it since he was theonly one who had ties to the governor’s office.
Leo Grayson was the kingpin of West City, but he was killed?
However, it made sense since it would be no issue for the governor’s office.
Sean smiled awkwardly, noticing their stares. “I just told them to do as they see fit. I didn’t expect themto go that far.”
He felt awkward even as he talked as well–he had to make up countless lies just to make up for onesilly remark he made ages ago!
“See?! Mr. Wesley has done so much for you!” Gina shot Helen a scornful look just then–how could
she be so stubborn?
Helen was actually emotional, since Sean had completely eliminated the Graysons‘ gang for her sake!
As a wornan, she should be rejoicing that there was a man who would go so far for her.
“Thank you, Mr. Wesley,” she said, her eyes wet with tears.
Sean was actually stunned that she got that emotional, but seeing that the timing was right, shewhipped out a palm–sized box from his pocket.
He slowly opened it, revealing the same diamond ring from before.
Going down on one knee and looking at Helen lovingly, he said, “Failing to give you this has been myconstant regret. I’ve thought for days, but I just can’t get you out of my head. I really hope you will giveme a chance… Will you marry me, Helen?”
“Wow!”
“Yes! Yes! Yes!”
Everyone around Helen began to cheer her on. In fact, most of the women were bribed by Sean earlierwith the simple task of hyping things up.
And beside Helen, Gina nudged her again. “What are you waiting for? Say yes!”novelbin
This was their best shot at forging an alliance with the Wesleys!
However, Helen was hesitant even as she stared at the sparkling diamond ring.
At the moment, Sean was certainly her best choice for a partner.
But she had not forgotten that man…
“Marry him, Ms. Lane! Mr. Wesley is such a successful man…”
