HELENE

“What exactly is going on between you and my cousin?” Isabel asked.

The moment the question left her lips, a single thought crossed my mind.

As expected.

When I saw her standing outside my door earlier, I had already guessed why she came. And, as it turned out, I wasn’t wrong.

Thinking about it now, her curiosity made perfect sense.

As Lucien’s cousin—and my best friend—Isabel was, of course, privy to our better-forgotten past entanglement. More than that, she knew better than anyone how

  • Marrying The Disabled Billionaire Heir    Chapter 39: Project HMB

    ISABELWatching the wine box disappear farther and farther away until it vanished completely from sight, I felt my heart shatter into tiny little pieces.I had to use every ounce of self-control to stop myself from reaching out dramatically and screaming:Don’t leave meee!Fortunately—or unfortunately—a shred of common sense combined with Mom’s warning stare barely managed to preserve the last scraps of my dignity.A moment later, I turned to look at Grandpa, who now sat comfortably in his armchair with his eyes closed, pretending to nap peacefully.I clicked my tongue in disappointment.As expected, no matter how generous a person usually was, the moment they encountered something they truly loved, they immediately transformed into terrifying misers.Still—A smug sense of pride rose within me.Hadn’t I said it already?My bestie’s wine really was that good.Just then, Helene’s voice rang out once more as she resumed distributing the remaining gifts.My eyes lit up instantly.The hea

  • Marrying The Disabled Billionaire Heir    Chapter 38: Petty Old Man

    LUCIENWho would have thought my new wife possessed a hidden talent like brewing?The more I learned about Helene, the more I realized how badly I had misjudged her in the past.Taciturn?Socially inept?My lips curved faintly.As if.From the current situation alone, it was obvious that if Helene truly wished to, she could charm almost anyone effortlessly.Just look at my mother.Anyone unfamiliar with her personality would probably assume she was easy to get close to, judging by the way she treated Helene today.But I knew better than anyone that wasn’t the case.As for the jewelry set she gifted away—I was fully aware of how much she treasured it. So much so that even I had been surprised when she asked the staff to bring it out earlier.In fact, I was fairly certain that if Noemie had been the one sitting here today, my mother would never have handed it over so readily.Yet for reasons known only to herself, she had taken an almost immediate liking to Helene.As for Aunt Eleanor,

    HELENE“She only reacted that way because the Matriarch Ring carries extraordinary significance within the family,” Marcus continued stiffly, discontent evident in his deep voice.His gaze flicked briefly toward me.“Helene is still young. Fiona is merely worried that by entrusting such an important heirloom to her, she may not be able to safeguard it properly—or shoulder the responsibility that comes with it.”Grandpa looked at him for several long seconds, his aged eyes unreadable.Then he spoke calmly.“Since I chose to give it to her, that means I’m not worried about whether she can safeguard it or not.”“As for her ability to shoulder the responsibility…” His gaze shifted toward me briefly before returning to Marcus. “She is Lucien’s wife.”“It doesn’t matter if she knows nothing right now. She can learn slowly from her mother-in-law.”His tone remained calm, yet every word carried undeniable weight.“She’ll understand eventually, no matter how long it takes. This is a responsibi

    HELLENEWhile I was still frozen in shock, Vivienne seemed to realize something belatedly.“Wait,” she said, her brows knitting slightly. “What did you just call me? Mrs. Blackthorne?”The moment I heard that, I instantly understood what she was really asking for.Or rather, what she wanted to hear.My expression turned faintly awkward.That word felt strangely unfamiliar to me.Honestly, I could probably count on both hands the number of times I had ever called the woman who gave birth to me that.Yet now—Feeling the weight of the necklace resting against my skin, then looking down at the undeniably precious jewelry box still in my hands, I found myself unable to deny the sincerity of the woman seated beside me.And sincerity…Sincerity had always been the one thing I didn’t know how to guard against.At this point, whether I addressed her as Mrs. Blackthorne or Aunt Vivienne, neither felt truly appropriate anymore.Taking a slow, silent breath, I mentally prepared myself.“M-Mom,”

    HELENEThanks to that brief yet unexpectedly heartwarming interlude, the atmosphere in the living room relaxed considerably.Unfortunately, the moment I realized it was now Marcus and Fiona’s turn to present their gifts, the faint smile on my lips instinctively faded.I truly couldn’t muster even the slightest goodwill toward anyone from their family.And judging from everything so far, the feeling was clearly mutual.That thought only strengthened as I looked down at the perfume box now resting in my hands.By ordinary standards, it certainly wasn’t cheap.But within a family like the Blackthornes, it could only be considered perfunctory.The sort of gift one gave out of obligation or mockery, rather than sincerity.“Do you like it?” Fiona asked with a faint smile curving her lips.“My assistant got it during a promotional event,” she added lightly. “But when I saw it, I thought it suited you quite well, so I specifically asked her to set it aside.”Silence briefly descended over the

    HELENEDinner began and ended in silence.Just like many other prestigious families, the Blackthornes observed the unspoken rule of not speaking while eating. Aside from the faint clink of silverware against porcelain, the dining room remained almost completely quiet throughout the meal.Once dinner concluded, everyone gradually gathered in the living room again.Fortunately, Isabel had already given me a heads-up about what was about to happen. The public gift-giving session for the newest addition to the family.Apparently, it was a long-standing Blackthorne tradition.At the same time, it also served another purpose—A subtle way of revealing who acknowledged you, who preferred to keep their distance, and vice versa.Honestly, rich people could be unbelievably dramatic at times.Even something as ordinary as gift-giving could somehow turn into a political performance.Naturally, there was even an order to follow. The younger generation presented their gifts first before the elders

  • Marrying The Disabled Billionaire Heir    Chapter 11: Proposition

    LUCIEN For the first time in my life, I felt as though I wasn’t intelligent enough. From everything Helene had said so far, it was obvious she found the idea of replacing Noemie and marrying me just as ridiculous as I did. She had even clearly foreseen the consequences it could bring—especially fo

    HELENEI sent Grandma a message to let her know I’d received the package she’d sent, having spotted it by the front door earlier.Knowing how rarely she checked her phone, I didn’t expect a reply anytime soon.Fortunately, the produce was still fresh as I sorted everything into the refrigerator. Ot

    ISABELFollowing the words I’d meant as comfort, I was caught off guard when Helene lowered her head and whispered an apology.Then came the tears. One after another, large drops slipping silently down her cheeks.“I—I didn’t mean to blame you,” I stammered, panic rising as I reached out to wipe t

    LUCIENHer words made me pause, all expression instantly vanishing from my face.“What do you mean by that?” I asked, my tone unreadable.She met my gaze calmly. “I mean we could make this a contract marriage—one with a specific time limit. A year, for example. After that, we can file for a mutual
