Bab 51: Lee's Family Daughter(2)
Helena ignored the staring eyes from afar, she glanced a little to get a view of the person that was holding her in contempt while giving her that cynical smile,
Francesca and her mother Lorraine observed the changes in Helena after she lost her memory, Francesca's eyes were full of jealousy, she wanted what Helena had, since from their childhood, she was used to taking away whatever that belongs to Helena, be it friends, and now 'husband', she has set her eye on Daniel since the first time she had met him few years ago, however Helena godfather is dead set on making Old Master Anderson to let them two tie the knot.
Since Helena is a naturally an obedient and timid girl, it is easy for her to implemented her evil deed without raising suspicion, every knows her as the good sister. This time, she will ask Helena to introduce her to Daniel, she had concoct a perfect plan to make Daniel despise Helena even more, based on the information she received from the maids she had bribed, Daniel is barely home, that only means he hates her..
Her mind and scheming thoughts are channel directly on her facial expressions while she leers on Helena's. The handkerchief she held is twisted and strained making it wrinkled and scrunched. She saw the waitress that is eagerly serving the champagne he held on the large circle tray, she flanked him and whisper a few words before handing him a small sachet and slide it in his pocket. A satisfied smile was vivid on her face, she then acted as if nothing happen and walk gracefully to join her mother to do a little networking for their company that is in a dire financial investment.
The lobby of this large main mansion is surrounded by ice sculptures carved by famous ice sculptors from Switzerland, it is placed in every corner of the room to give guests the opportunity to admire this architecture. It is stated the Old Master loves to spoil his wife, and this is one of the thing she admired the most.
Helena walked passing every one that remain ogling her way, she held the gift she prepared to present it to the Old Master and stop one of the servant to ask his whereabout. The gift she held is carefully selected by her for the 'Old Fox', she hasn't meet the Old Master in this world just yet, anyway she has the feeling he is not much different than him on the other world.
Fortunately for her, Cade and Molly weren't able to attend the party since they have left the country to take their Son for the piano competitions, ,child prodigy. Otherwise she will feel nauseated looking at them as just how she looked at them before.
Daniel saw Helena is ready to meet the Old Master, he then took a champagne from the tray carried by one of the waitress and gulped it in one breathe before putting it back to the tray. He clicked his tongue realizing the champagne had a bit of gritty after taste, anyhow it is probably just him since he was absolutely livid for no reason. His emotions are like a roller coaster lately, and he knows deep down what is the trigger, but ego gets in the way and he simply refused to believe it.
He reached her way and with his eyes, he signaled it to her to follow him.
She saw Daniel walking away after looking at her.
'He really did not want anyone to see them together, hmmph like i care' she sneered, and lift her chin to walk confidently behind him heading to the small space that only allowing the close family and friends to entre.
Far from the public eye, Daniel then reach his hand to hold Helena's so that they can walk hand in hand in the eye of the family. Helena looked down on their interlocking hand, she is the master of acting, an idea came to her mind, a slow payback to him for how he was treating the "old" Helena and allowing her to be friending scheming green tea b*tch.
She tighten her grip on his hand and instantly facing him as soon as the door was open, she looked up to this dashing tall man and tip toed to kiss his cheek, everyone eyes widen when they see the cold Daniel was kissed by Helena. Rumors spread faster than good news in upper class society, some people anticipated Daniel wrath, but to no avail, he raised his arm and placed it on her lower back and tighten it till their chest meet.
Helena knows this game all too well, she straightened her back to let his hand able to envelop her completely, she can feel heat radiated from his body making his cheek a little flush. The scent of herbs that she smells mixing with his minty breathe caught her off guard. Someone is playing trick.
Daniel seem to lose himself a little bit when his hand run lowered to grab her butt, Helena held his hand before it reaches her bottom, and whisper to his ear looking intimate.
"Everyone is watching, if you touch m again, i will chop your hand"
Daniel saw the threat as a major turned on for him, he has a thing for dangerous woman and Helena. Now that the two combined, she has officially landed herself in a deep hole as soon as she spoke to him.
Gritting her teeth, she took a deep breathe and let him go a little to hand the gift to the Old master that sheepishly smiling with a hidden meaning. The matriarch Gianna also covering her lips seeing these two seems to grow closer than they have thought. They are secretly celebrating in their mind, picturing the most adorable grandbabies they will have, like little Cael that is not only genius but also a piano prodigy.
