Chapter 12

Author: Sunflower
Suddenly, the door to the hospital room opened, and my adoptive parents walked in.

"Mom, Dad, Sabrina is—"

"Zachary, the doctor already told us. Helena is out of danger now. What about you? Are you still in pain?"

I shook my head. "Mom, Dad, what matters most right now is Helena. She made it through, but we still don't know if there will be any long-term complications…"

I paused before adding, "But don't worry. For as long as I live, I'll take care of her."

My adoptive parents exchanged a look. A hint of surprise lit their faces. "Zachary, what do you mean? Are you saying you want to be with Helena forever?"

I drew a long breath and gathered my courage. "Yes. Mom, Dad, maybe you don't know this yet, but Helena has loved me for a long time. She never moved on. I was afraid it would damage the bond I have with you, so I didn't dare reciprocate her feelings.

    Sabrina and Charlie each raised a wooden stick and barked at her, fierce and frantic."Who the hell are you? Don't get in the way! Get out!"Helena swept her eyes around the room. The moment she saw me, she finally relaxed.Luckily, she knew how to fight. She swung her fist straight into Sabrina's face and kicked Charlie hard in the gut.Both of them hit the floor, lying unmoved.Helena rushed over, dropped into a crouch, and tried to get the rope off me, her hands shaking with urgency.She even kept apologizing under her breath, "I'm sorry, Zachary. I got here too late. I shouldn't have let you get into danger again…"But the knots were a mess. Before she could loosen them, Sabrina forced herself up, flicked open the lighter, and threw it our way.Gasoline had already soaked the floor. Flames roared to life in an instant.Tears blurred my vision as I shook my head. "Helena, go! Leave me!"However, she didn't say a word. All she cared about was dragging me out with her.Fina

    In the end, Charlie was thrown out of the Jones family, and I managed to dissolve my engagement with Sabrina without any trouble.As expected, stripped of the Jones family's protection, they now had to face the world, and everyone already knew what they had done. Life was about to get brutally hard.I planned to let them struggle for a while, then hand over the evidence of their plot against me and watch the police take them away.Everything moved along far smoother than I imagined, and I had to admit that a lot of that was because of Helena. If she hadn't told the companies under Cook Group to recognize my authority, I never would've exposed those two for what they really were so quickly.Once everything was wrapped up, she sent me a message that read, "Zachary, don't be sad. Think of it as trusting the wrong people. You'll meet someone who truly cares for you."She even added a hug emoji at the end of the text.Did she think I was heartbroken and sulking?I couldn't help but s

    After a brief rest, I woke early the next day and headed to a hotel.This was the place I had learned about from the listening device last night, where Sabrina and Charlie often met in secret. They had no idea that this hotel belonged to Cook Group.The moment I stepped inside, the staff, who recognized me from the photos Helena had distributed, greeted me immediately."Good morning, Mr. Jones!"I raised a hand to quiet them. "Where is the room Sabrina booked? Take me there.""Sure, Mr. Jones."They led me to the door of Sabrina's room. I first started a live stream, then opened the door with a keycard.Inside, Sabrina and Charlie were wrapped in each other's arms, clearly lost in each other's company.The moment the door opened, they spun toward me in panic, only to freeze when they realized the camera on my phone was recording them.They screamed and scrambled to cover themselves with sheets and blankets.It didn't take long for the viewers to recognize them in the live fee

    "What's going on? What's with all the noise?"Josephine Henderson, my biological mother, descended the stairs with her usual elegance. When she saw me, a hint of surprise crossed her face. "Zachary? What brought you home so early? Sabrina said you were traveling for another month."I understood immediately. No wonder my biological parents hadn't filed a missing-person report or sent anyone to look for me these past few days.As it turned out, Sabrina and Charlie had already planned this. They were hoping that I'd be trapped far from home so they could cash in on the situation.To prevent me from saying anything that could expose them, Sabrina quickly explained, "Mrs. Jones, I was worried about Zachary's safety while he was traveling alone. That's why I asked him to come back early."Charlie hurried to add, "I've always thought it was dangerous for Zachary to go to such a remote island alone. Sabrina and I went with him, but he still sent us away. I was on edge the whole time. Luck

    Helena thought for a moment and agreed without hesitation, "Alright. When do you want to leave? I'll go home with you. Your room is exactly the way you left it. Mom and Dad miss you too."I shook my head. "I'm not going back to the Cook residence. I'm going to the Jones residence."Then, I added, "Sabrina is still waiting for me."Helena's face darkened at once. "She faked your whereabouts and dumped you here. Why would you still want to go back to her? Zachary, have you lost your mind?"She fought to keep her temper in check, her hands clenched tight.But I wasn't going back to the Jones residence because I was lovesick. I was going back for revenge!Sabrina and Charlie had teamed up to set me up. There was no universe where I would let that slide.Besides, I had another reason for returning. I needed Helena to let go of whatever she felt for me.I clenched my fists and forced myself to sound steady. "Don't worry. Once I'm back, Sabrina will explain everything."Helena's eyes
