Chapter 110:Not Allowed to Leave
The person Bruce found was highly efficient.
In less than an hour, the news of the Santana Group’s Second Young Master’s affair was making waves, flooding the internet.
It didn’t take long for the heat to skyrocket.
Internet users were particularly interested in these scandalous tales of the wealthy.
Although the faces of the individuals involved were pixelated, it couldn’t fool the discerning eyes of netizens.
Before long, someone dug up photos of the Santana Group’s Second Young Master with both his ex-girlfriend and his wife.
The Varley Group also faced a wave of criticism.
The corporate images of both companies were severely tarnished.
Of course, the Santana Group didn’t escape unscathed.
The label of “unfaithful man” was firmly affixed to Willis.
Susan remained oblivious to all of this.
Before the Santana Group’s anniversary celebration even concluded, she had left the Capital Hotel and returned home.
The driver helped her into the house.
Upon entering, Owen pointed his finger at her and launched into a tirade, “Look at what you’ve done! Whatever you do privately is your business, but don’t drag the company down with you! I’ve worked hard to build this company, not for you to ruin!”
Susan, looking bewildered, asked, “Dad, why are you so angry for no reason?”
Owen, infuriated, pulled up the news on his phone and tossed it into her lap, saying, “See for yourself!”
Susan, confused, opened the news.
She was instantly wide awake!
The news was everywhere, portraying her and Willis having an affair!
Her mind was in turmoil!
Her fingers rapidly swiped the phone screen, desperately checking Weibo posts one after another, murmuring, “It’s not like this. It’s not like this. Willis and I never entered the room in the first place. I was kicked out by him in less than three minutes. How could these people write such nonsense? I’ll sue them!”
“By the time you win the lawsuit, the company will have gone bankrupt! You fool! All you do is cause trouble for me all the time!”
Owen snatched the phone from her hand and called the PR manager.
He instructed them to contact relevant personnel overnight to delete all the news online.
At the same time, Helena sat on the bed at home, waiting for Willis to return.
Waiting left and right, but he never came back.
Calling his phone, the assistant informed her that he was currently unavailable.
Unable to sleep, Helena picked up her phone to search for information on antiques.
Opening the browser, the first news article caught her attention.
Out of curiosity, she clicked on it.
As she read, her smile froze on her face.
The article included photos of her and Susan, along with Willis.
So, the Second Young Master of the Santana Group was her husband, Willis.
Both her wife and mistress were Helena and Susan.
Willis was unavailable to answer the phone because he was with Susan in a hotel room!
Helena’s hands holding the phone trembled slightly.
Her heart felt constricted, as if tied with ropes, making it hard to breathe.
She never expected that one day she would become the leading lady in such a sensational news story!
Needle after needle, her thoughts stabbed deeply, causing intense pain.
Just two hours ago, she believed she was the happiest woman in the world.
It took an indeterminate amount of time before Helena could muster a semblance of composure.
She took a deep breath, picked up her phone, and dialed Willis’s number.
Refusing to accept it, she wanted clarification.
After connecting, the assistant apologized, “Mrs. Santana, Mr. Santana is really unable to take calls right now. I’ll have him call you back shortly, okay?”
Willis was currently having his stomach pumped in the hospital.
He couldn’t take the call.
Thinking that Susan and Willis were still in the hotel room, Helena believed the assistant was helping to cover up the affair.
With a cold smile, she said, “I’ve seen the news. Tell him to get a divorce. I’ll step aside for them. No need for clandestine affairs.”
The assistant was taken aback, “What news?”
“The news that he and Susan are in a hotel room; it’s all over the internet now!” Helena could no longer maintain her composure.
The assistant quickly opened the internet.
Sure enough.
It was all over the place – news of Willis and Susan having an affair!
He hurriedly explained, “Mrs. Santana, it’s not like that. Mr. Santana had something added to his drink, and I brought him to the hospital to have his stomach pumped. He didn’t want me to say anything to worry you.”
Thinking Willis was still with Susan, she assumed he was helping to cover up the affair.
Upon hearing the explanation, Helena said, “Tell me the name of the hospital and the room number. I’m going to see him now.”Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Seeing is believing.
She didn’t trust anyone’s words.
She had to see it with her own eyes.
The assistant, realizing the situation had escalated, dared not deceive her any longer, “We’re at the City People’s Hospital, Emergency Department. When you’re about to arrive, give me a call, and I’ll come to pick you up.”
“Okay.”
After hanging up, Helena called the driver, Tim.
Soon, Tim arrived to drive her to the hospital.
Helena’s face remained pale.
Although she didn’t speak, her eyes were filled with painful agony.
After a long time, she finally spoke, “Do men cheat when their wives are pregnant?”
Tim thought for a moment, “It depends on the person. During a woman’s pregnancy, it’s indeed the time when men are most likely to cheat, but some men can control themselves, feeling loyal to their wives and not straying.”
“And you?”
Tim grinned, “I’ve known my wife since elementary school, and our relationship is very good. I couldn’t do something like that.”
“What if the person you cheat with is your ex-girlfriend?”
“My wife is my first love.”
Helena fell silent.
Both Susan and Willis were each other’s first love, childhood sweethearts who grew up together.
First love and ex-girlfriend were like timed bombs in a woman’s heart.
They could explode anytime, anywhere.
After what felt like a very long time, the car finally arrived at City People’s Hospital.
Getting out of the car,
Willis’s assistant came to pick up Helena.
Arriving at the emergency department,
Willis had already finished his stomach pumping and was lying on a hospital bed, pale with an abnormal redness.
The paleness was from the stomach pumping, but the abnormal redness was due to the residual effects of the drugs.
Seeing Helena’s pained expression, Willis’s heart tightened, and he weakly smiled at her, “In the middle of the night, why didn’t you rest at home and come to the hospital to see me? With my condition, who else could I look at besides you? Fool.”
Helena’s eyes reddened, and she walked over to him.
Bending down, she embraced him.
Whispering in his ear, she said, “If you dare to cheat, I will take our child and go to a place you can never find. You’ll regret it for a lifetime.”
Willis felt a pang in his heart.
His long, slender fingers tightly grasped her arm, holding on as if afraid that if he let go, she would run away.
“Don’t leave me.”
His voice was hoarse, “If you dare to run, even if I have to search the ends of the earth, I’ll find you back.”
