And Mikel's statement certainly took Nathan by surprise. While Helena's body suddenly stiffened, but both knees relaxed. His eyes tried to meet Mikel who had anger there. Unlike Helena who now has tears on her face. The breath of Mikel rose and fell because it managed to evaporate his emotions that had always been held by him.
Helena shook her head, her body barely decaying to the floor if only she was not as strong as her body weight. "That's not true. All this time you've only loved me Mikel!" the cry of not believing.
"No. I only love one woman. And that woman who made me survive to this day." For now Mikel can still control himself. "I don't love you, either Helena. It's not me who's gonna get you out of your pain. So stop, stop lying to yourself. I don't love you and you don't love me either" she exclaimed. And Helena still seemed to be quietly listening.
"Go away. Go back to Paris. Don't bother Elie. He doesn't know anything." Mikel's tone was a little low, hoping that this time Helena could understand what he was saying.
"No!" Helena yelling. He pulled his hair rough. "I love you and you love me too!" No idea where, so Helena always criticizes if they love each other.
"Conscious Helena. You'll only torture yourself like this." Mikel grabbed both of Helena's shoulders and shook her firmly. It did not matter if what he was facing right now was a woman. "One day you will find someone who is sincere with you. Don't mind your father, I'll give you back all the money your father gave you and that very second that our relationship, which from the beginning had never been established, ended up here. I don't care if you or your father will take a share in my company." At least the load is slightly reduced. He did not have to obey what his father and daughter said.
"No!" helena brushed off Mikel's hands. Helena's tears flooded her face when she heard Mikel's words. "I love you. From two years ago I loved you and you felt the same way. If not, how could you have been so good to me. Even then you were protecting me from Daddy preferring a new wife and daughter" she exclaimed on the sidelines sobbing.
"No. Until I will never love you. He's all I love, he's all..." If only he did not appreciate Helena, his hand had already floated around her neck and clasped her firmly.
Helena's cry further broke down, even repeatedly she patted Mikel's chest in disappointment. Nathan who had stood up to be a spectator could do nothing but remain silent. He had just heard the whole story. All this time he knew that his master was keeping the woman's feelings in check because he had a little taste, but now he had heard everything and concluded that his master only empathized with Miss Helena, although in the end it made the woman misunderstand.
"You're lying.." he said sobbing. His hand did not stop hitting Mikel's chest. "You must love me." Closing his eyes for a moment, prepare if again he must accept the true statement of the man's mouth and heart.
"No. I don't love you Helen. And. You don't love me either." Mikel further confirmed his words. Since meeting Helena, he has been so sorry for the fate of the woman. Losing his mother and not being recognized by his biological father after the old man had another wife and daughter, certainly not an easy thing to face and live. Moreover, the first time he met Helena two years ago when the woman tried to commit suicide by jumping on the bridge and it reminded him of his sister Meisha who also always tried to commit suicide.
"But you promised me back then to always take care of me." The cry of Helena weakened, the fatigue that was mixed with the feeling of tightness drained her strength. But it did not dampen the tears that were increasingly shed on his face.
"I'm sorry...." Mikel made a sound after a split second of silence. "I didn't mean to give you hope. I just want you to live well and protect you from them. I already consider you like my sister. I'm sorry Helen, although this is painful but I hope you can understand."
"You're evil!" Helena wiped away the tear on her face and pushed Mikel with all her might.
"I am like that. So stop everything. If you think that you love me, that's a big mistake. You just want to rely on me, and all this time no man has treated you like me. You let other people think that you're a netaang woman. You've always been quiet and humbled yourself just because of a guy like me. So stop it, live well. Don't ever try to kill yourself again, it won't bring your mother back." For the first time in over two years, Mikel said so gently to Helena that it made her tears break again.
Helena did not understand and did not want to understand. All this time he caught from Mikel's treatment, if the man loved him even in a cold way.
"Nath, get Helena back to the hotel." Mikel did not want the woman to drive the car in a state of the woman's soul that was being shaken. Especially during this time the woman before him was in a psychic that was not okay.
"No need." Helena wiped her tears back. "I can go alone. You or anyone else doesn't need to drive me." Helena turned to look back at Mikel. The accepted reality completely cut his heart.
"Nath!!" Nathan gasped even more as Mikel pressed his voice.
"Bright sir." Nathan nodded, then darted out of the room as Helena had already passed from there with a raging feeling.
"I told you, you don't have to drive me!" Helena snapped at Nathan who had been following until they were in the lobby.
"I have to make sure that Miss is okay" Nathan said softly.
"no need. Tell him not to feel sorry for me anymore!" Helena hurried away from there, avoiding Nathan who continued to tail, until then a taxi passed in front of her. It turned out that the woman was not driving her car, but using a taxi to ask the taxi driver to wait for himself in front of the company.
Nathan exhales in the air for failing to deliver the woman home as his superior ordered. Helena was so good at getting into the taxi that the taxi soon passed from her sight.
***
On the way, Helena shed her tears. The pain of four years ago came back to him, and it was more painful than when his mother left him for good. The taxi driver was so reluctant to ask, the middle-aged man just focused on driving and let the passenger sobbing.
But a luxury car that suddenly stopped it requires the driver to step on the brake pedal. If not, then the taxi will only collide with each other with the luxury car.
"Uncle, what's wrong?" ask Helena. His body was almost shaken forward. He stopped crying that very second.
The taxi driver looked. "Sorry Miss, there's a fancy car that overtakes and then stops suddenly."
"Come down" he told Helena.
Helena frowned and followed the woman's words to get out of the car. "What's wrong?" tanyanya while looking at the appearance of the woman in front of him who looks classy.
"I want to talk to you. Come with me."
But Helena did not agree with the words of the foreign woman. "I'm sorry, I don't know you, so what am I supposed to do with you."
The woman clucked with her arms crossed in front of her chest. "You'll be interested."
"No. Nothing interested me anyway." Helena did not care and opened the car door.
"I know you have a problem with a woman named Elie. I can help you get rid of it." Helena's hand movements stopped as soon as she heard the woman's words. He paused his intention to open the car door and looked at the smiling woman towards him.
And this is where the two of them are, at one of the nearby Restaurants. They were in a VIP room where no one would hear their conversation.
"I have an interesting offer for you" said the woman after a maid delivered her order and passed from there.
"You haven't introduced yourself yet" said Helena. Today the identity of the woman is more important than the attractive offers that the woman before her.
"Haha I like you," he said chuckling. "Meet me is Carmela Born. Owner of Glory Ent."
Both of Helena's eyebrows appear wrinkled, feeling familiar with the company's name. "Then what do you want to talk to me about?"
Carmela smiled, then handed Helena a photo. Helena seemed lazy to reach for the photo but she was attracted to the woman in the photo who looked like she was hugging.
"He's..."
"Right, she's Elie Cassandra. You hate him, don't you? I can help you." Carmela smiled faintly, a grinning smile filled with veiled intent.
"What can you do to help me?" ask Helena.
"Of course help you get rid of that woman and you can get Mr. Mikel back." Yeah, Carmela's been figuring it all out. Mikel who was so protective of Elie figure, made him curious and in the end investigated about the man. Surprised not to play because it turns out that the man already has another woman.
Helena smiled in response. "Then what are you planning?"
"Of course it embarrassed him by spreading these photos. Look, he's so arrogant that he's surrounded by rich and handsome men" Carmela exclaimed.
Helena nodded. "Why do you hate him?"
"Because he humiliated me. He's also been making my fiancee not care about me lately. My fiancee is her ex-lover and I want to teach her a lesson for daring to play around with the daughter of the Born family." To this day, Carmela hates Elie. He would not let the woman live in peace at any time. "Hows it? Do you want to work with me to get rid of him?" tanyanya back.
Helena seemed to think. Before then smiling thinly, making Carmela feel if Helena will cooperate with him.
