Weak to Strong

Helen Robert was a chubby young woman who hadn't expected Samuel Kingston to have a crush on her. He asked her out to be his girlfriend, and she was unaware that it was a bet by his friends to date her, the nerdy, chubby blonde woman, as her peers laughed at her. When Helen Robert found out that Samuel was only using her, she was devastated and wanted to kill herself, but one of her friends saved her. With a broken heart, Helen left, and Samuel didn't get to see her again. Seven years later, Helen came to apply for a staff position at Sam Pharmaceutical. She didn't expect to see Samuel again. By then, she had slimmed down due to her suffering, as she had given birth to twins. Samuel was engaged to Tasha, but when he saw Helen, his engagement was rocked. His fiancée kidnapped Helen and offered her cash to stay away from Samuel. Helen had been misunderstood. She didn't return because of Samuel. Do you think she will accept the money? What about her twins; will she tell Samuel about them? What if he found out on his own? Will there be a second chance for them?

Chapter 1 _ The Bet
On a sunny Friday afternoon, Helen Robert had finished her pharmacy class and was returning to her dorm when she heard someone call her name. "Wait, Helen," Samuel Kingston called. He was a 24-year-old man in his fourth year at Avalon University. "Why should I wait? What do you want from me?" Helen asked as she turned back to face Samuel Kingston, the notorious bad boy on campus. "Why are you forming hard to get? Do you think I want to use you?" Samuel asked, refusing to give up. He wore a faded black jacket and trousers, paired with black boots, as he had just exited his pharmacy class. He was studying drug development, as was Helen, but she was a brilliant, chubby, 21-year-old fair-skinned girl. Some other pharmacy students stole glances at them and wondered if Helen would give Samuel a chance. Besides, his father was a billionaire and owned a pharmaceutical company in their state. Helen wore a white top and a long brown skirt, paired with black shoes. A white spectacle was perc

Chapter 2 _ Father's Illness
The next day, Helen sat on her bed, studying her pharmacy books ahead of the practical examination they had the following week. It was 2 p.m., yet she hadn't bathed nor eaten her breakfast since morning. Due to her plus-size figure, Helen was trying to lose weight. She busied herself studying for her project test and practical coming up the following week. Tasha returned from having her lunch and looked stunned to see Helen curled up on the bed, her books in her hands. "Damn it, Helen! How could you not leave this room for a whole day just because we have examinations and practicals next week? Come off it!" Tasha shouted, as she strolled up to the bed to meet Helen. Her hands reached for the book that Helen had been studying, and she snatched it and shut it. "Tasha, give me back my book. I do not want to fail this exam," Helen said as she frowned at her best friend's behavior. "You are beauty with brains, Helen. Obviously you wouldn't fail even if you didn't study your books for

Chapter 3 _ The Drug
After Helen stepped out of Mr. Ruben's office, another of her lecturers spotted her and called to her attention, "Helen Robert." Helen stilled as the lecturer, Mr. Andrew Morris, asked, "Are you keeping a boyfriend that you failed in my exam? This has not happened before. What happened to you?" Mr. Andrew was a middle-aged man, and he looked at Helen with disappointment in his voice and face. Helen couldn't meet Mr. Andrew's face. Seeing all her lecturers angry at her, she knew that she had allowed her father's illness to weigh her down. She could have accepted to marry instead of furthering her education, like her father suggested. "Helen?" Mr. Andrew shook his head and said, "Stay away from boys so that you don't destroy your future." The man walked away, while the rest of the day, Helen went from one lecturer's office to another. Until the chancellor invited her to her office. "Helen Robert, what is going on with you? You came into this university and did well, and now that yo

Chapter 4 _ Rushing Home
When Helen finished packing a few of her clothes, she placed the medicine in her bag and prepared to leave the room. Tasha arrived and seemed shocked to see Helen already set to leave the hostel. "Helen, where on earth are you rushing off to?" Tasha asked, blocking Helen's path. "Tasha, I don't have time to explain. I have to hurry home. It's urgent," Helen replied, pushing past Tasha and dashing out of the room. "Fine. Call me when you get home, and be careful out there," Tasha said as Helen hurried away. "Alright," Helen replied. She made her way out of the hostel, carrying a black school bag on her shoulder, wearing a pair of black shoes and her blue dress. She walked out of the women's hostel and headed off the university grounds. As Helen continued trekking across campus, Samuel spotted her. He had been searching for her. Though it was a bet, he couldn't help wanting to speak with her. He called out, "Helen!" Helen froze and turned to see Samuel hurrying toward her. "What

Chapter 5 _ Father's Call
Alex stood in the room, staring at his two best friends in shock. "No, John. You are not going to draft that bet and sign it. I don't agree to this," Alex said, wanting to stop his two best friends from going through with the crazy wager. "Have you two thought about what would happen if Helen found out you placed a bet on her? Would she be able to withstand the humiliation? I'm going to tell her so she doesn't fall for any of this," Alex said, but before he could leave the room, John and Samuel grabbed him by his shirt and growled at him. "Don't you dare. Unless you want to see your father's company go bankrupt." "What?" Alex's jaw dropped. "Are you guys threatening me? What is so special about Helen that you both want to humiliate her? Just let her be. Please…" Alex begged, looking at his friends. They let go of his shirt, and John pulled out a cigarette to smoke, as he was a politician's son. "I will not let Helen off the hook. She crossed the line, and it's only fair she pays

Chapter 6 _ Mother's Call
Samuel hesitated before answering his mother's call. "Hello, Mom." "Samuel, how could you go behind your father's back to help the Robert family? Your father has been trying to cripple that family for years, and now you've succeeded in saving the Roberts' boss," Mrs. Stacey said, her voice calm but laced with annoyance. She was aware of all her husband's evil schemes that kept the Kingston family at the top of the pharmaceutical charts in their state and globally. "Mom, I have no idea what you and Dad are talking about. I didn't give any potent drug to anyone, and I don't know who Mr. Robert is. The last potent drug I made is still in trials and hasn't been distributed to the market," Samuel said, answering the call in his room. John stared at Samuel in shock, not knowing that Samuel was the secret genius who had created the last potent drug used to cure the paralyzed rats in the lab. Then why hadn't the lecturers announced Samuel? Was it because of his father's wealth, and they we

Chapter 7 _ Brothers Fury
At the government-owned specialist hospital where Mr. Robert had been transferred, Helen's four older brothers—Paul, Zion, Caleb, and Patrick—waited in the room. Paul Robert was a thirty-seven-year-old man and the oldest among them. Zion was thirty-five, Caleb was thirty-three, and Patrick was thirty-one, the brother closest in age to Helen. They were in the hospital room with their father's lawyer, Mr. Lucas Samson. "Barrister Lucas, we need to prepare my father's will in case he dies," Paul said ruthlessly. He wanted to take over Roberts Pharmaceutical, but his father had refused, saying Paul was reckless and wouldn't manage the company well. Paul wished he could strangle his father to death. However, he wasn't the only son; he had three other brothers who also longed to take over the company. But the company had lost a huge sum of money, which they had only just discovered. "Paul, how can you be asking about Dad's company? How do we pay the workers now that Dad lost fifty milli

Chapter 8: The Stranger
Helen, who had just arrived at the hospital as the same time as her brothers were leaving, was shocked when she saw them departing with frosty auras. "Big brothers!" She called to get their attention and wanted to rush over to them, but they looked at her as if she were not their sister. They got into their cars and drove off, and Helen was shocked by how her two older brothers had reacted at the sight of her. They didn't even look sympathetic; they glared at her as if she were the cause of her father's illness. "What's wrong with Dad? Why did brothers Paul and Zion glare at me like that?" Helen muttered, her voice tinged with confusion. Having no idea, she made her way into the hospital to find out what had happened to her father. Helen hadn't gone to her father's house. She got the hospital address from her mother and came directly to the hospital after leaving the university grounds. The university was a one-hour drive from the hospital. Helen had rushed over in the hope of see

Chapter 9: The Miracle
"What?" Rosemary's eyes widened in shock, as did Patrick's, since Caleb had already left the room in jealousy. It was just Patrick, Helen, and their mother. Patrick was a banker working for a commercial bank, but he hadn't expected the news of his father being duped. He was shaken by the news but vowed to get the scammers arrested and brought to justice. He acted calmly, as if he were not affected, waiting for his father to improve and provide information on how he had been defrauded. Instead, his father's health was getting worse. "Helen, where did you find this medicine? Are you sure it will work on your father and not kill him? How are you sure that only a tablespoon of this medicine will cure him? Who made it?" Rosemary asked, her eyes filled with tears. Helen looked at her mother, hesitating to tell the truth. "Mom, I do not want to tell you who made it. But the person is an expert," she said, just as a doctor rushed in. "What's going on here? You cannot administer any medici

CHAPTER 10
Helen's heart softened under her mother's warm embrace. She hadn't expected that her father would automatically recover and even be able to talk and move his hands and legs on his own—something that he had not been able to do before. "Helen, do you have anything to say to the media? What university do you study at? Is it the well-known renowned Avalon's University?" an interviewer asked, and Helen got to realize that it was because her father's company went bankrupt and it was announced on the news that he was owing hundreds of workers' salaries. Not just that, some other hospitals that he was supposed to supply his medicine to—he failed to meet up with the supply. But now that he had been miraculously cured, they hoped that Helen would take over Roberts Pharmaceutical and distribute the medicine to other hospitals with other stroke victims too. "Miss Helen! Can you shed more light on how you got this miraculous medicine? Who created it, and what ingredients were used to create it? W
