Sitting down on his chair, John smiled and asked Samuel, "What were you asking Tasha about?"

Samuel's appetite returned, and he said, "I wasn't asking Tasha anything other than when Helen is going to resume."

"Oh, I forgot they were best friends," John said, eating his food as he ordered a plate of hot potatoes.

"Yeah, I actually sent Helen a friend request, but she didn't accept me," Samuel said.

"What? You did what?" John asked, surprised to hear that Samuel sent a friend request to Helen.

"I didn't have a choice. I wanted to hear from Helen," Samuel admitted, and John shook his head as he continued eating.

Finishing the food in his mouth, John said, "I guess you are beginning to fall for Helen."

"No way. Just the bet," Samuel replied with a smile. "Let me go and order my food," he stood up from the chair and went to order his own food.

"Mmm…" John swallowed, but didn't press further.

    "Wait, Helen, aren't you happy to see me?" Samuel asked as he turned to face Helen.Helen crossed her arms over her chest, standing by the gate entrance of her father's house, and replied, "I am not happy to see you. What do you want here? How do you know my father's address?"Helen watched as Samuel's eyes followed her body, from her chest down to her blue shorts, and up to her face again."You don't dress like this at the university. Why? Hiding your God-given gift?" he asked her with a smile, watching her face as her cheeks flushed."Samuel, you don't talk like this, either. Don't flirt with me. We are sworn enemies. So shoo away," Helen waved her arms for Samuel to leave, surprised that he had found her home address.She spotted the black car waiting to take him back."You should leave, Samuel. I don't want to see you," Helen repeated, knowing that her father had been defrauded by Samuel's father."I am not leaving," Samuel replied calmly. "I came to take you to the university. Di

    Three months later, Avalon University had resumed after its long break, but Helen was at home, not making any plans to return to her classes."Helen, aren't you going back to school today?" her mother asked when she walked up to Helen's room door and gently pushed it open."Good morning, Mom. I don't feel like resuming," Helen said, lying on her bed."Why is that?" Mrs. Rosemary asked, walking up to her daughter's bed to meet Helen. If it were before, Helen would have been happy and thrilled to return to school; now she lay on the bed, not interested in going."Mom, I am fine. I will resume next week," Helen said as she sat up on the bed.Her mother looked at her face worriedly and sighed."It's fine. Just have hope, and everything will be back to normal," Rosemary said.Helen nodded, knowing that she could not slack. Forcing a tight smile, she replied, "I understand, Mom. I will be in school on Monday."Rosemary smiled and let her daughter be. She was aware that her husband losing th

    When Samuel walked into his room, he sighed, knowing he had lied to his mother about his feelings for Helen. Samuel knew his interest in Helen had piqued after he heard some of her colleagues laughing at her and calling her a "virgin nerd." It was unexpected that a young woman of Helen's age was still a virgin. Why hadn't she had a boyfriend? It wasn't as if Samuel was a saint in that area. He had dated some female students, but he didn't take any of them seriously. He knew they were only after him because of his father's wealth. In Avalon City, the Kingston name held significant influence, and most women desired that connection. However, Samuel knew his mother maintained a private life. She didn't brag online or show off to other women. Instead, she created an NGO page where she donated to the poor. Thinking about when his fascination with Helen began, Samuel sighed. He knew that if he didn't win Helen over, he would consider himself a failure. After all, Helen wasn't only a virgin

    "That's some good news," Rosemary replied to what her husband had said about considering keeping the funding for Helen's final year. But when she looked at her daughter's stern face, she sighed.Rosemary was aware that Helen had always wished to work at Roberts Pharmaceutical, and now the company was gone.Walking up to her daughter, Rosemary held Helen's hand and advised her, "Don't lose hope, Helen. Someday, you will build back Roberts Pharmaceutical, alright?"Breathing out heavily, Helen forced a tight smile and replied, "Okay, Mom."Helen felt better after hearing her mother's comforting words, and they went back into the house together.Later in the evening, Helen stepped out to have dinner with her parents, as her mother called her and told her that dinner was ready.When Helen walked downstairs to join her mother, she saw the living room door open and her older brother, Patrick, arrive.Patrick wore a yellow shirt and black trousers with a pair of black shoes."Good evening, B

    When Helen arrived at her father's company, a multitude of staff members were seen protesting because her father owed them money."Pay us our money!" the staff yelled, while the hired security men tried to stabilize them."Calm down, everyone. The salaries for this month will be paid. But there will be no more employment, except for those that the subsidiary company wants to hire. This is not on me," her father said, standing at the front, and the noise reduced.Helen stood aside, and no one recognized that she was Mr. Robert's daughter. After promising to pay them, Mr. Robert dismissed everyone to return home and rest assured that they would be paid.One by one, the staff walked out of the company, while Helen slowly made her way forward to find her father, who was discussing with some men in black suits."Dad," Helen rushed over to meet him, and Mr. Robert frowned when he saw his daughter."What brings you here, Helen? I thought I asked you to stay at home?" Mr. Robert asked as he w
