Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 619: Helen Was The One George Loved 

Helen’s POV

The next morning, Lucy and I traveled to work together.

She complained endlessly about George’s ruthlessness all the way "I’ve never met such a scoundrel in my life! Before I went to Florida, he promised me that I would receive a handsome commission as long as I would bring Dyer to him. Now that I made it and Dyer came to New York, he had broken his promise! If he didn’t want to pay me the commission, he could have told me fat out.

But no! He had to send me on a wild goose chase to the human resource and finance departments.

They threw their policies in my face and laughed behind my back! What a fool I was to trust George! Damn it! He is a hypocrite.

A utilitarian like him cannot be trusted! I’ve never been wrong before! I’ll take this encounter with George as a serious lesson about trust.

Helen, you should applaud yourself for breaking up with that cheat It’s the best decision you’ve made.He can never honor his word!"

Lucy was in a frenzy all the way until we got out of the subway I’d been listening to her complaints quietly, but my heart was a raging river George had no reason to treat Lucy so badly Obviously, he did so just to embarrass me.

It was a private matter between George and me Why did he have to drag Lucy into it? Why was he being so mean to her? The more I thought about it, the more depressed I felt.

As soon as I arrived at Zhester Technology, I went directly to George’s office.

On seeing me, George’s assistant rushed to stop me.

"Miss Dewar! Mr Arfleck is in a meeting right now.On no account can he be disturbed If there is anything you need, let me know and I’ll convey your message to him."

She looked comedic trying to block my way with her outstretched hands I brushed past her.

"No, thanks I will wait in his office"

I openly defied George’s assistant and pushed open the door.

In fact, I was only putting on a brave front.I was nervous, but I had to do what was right in my heart for Lucy "Miss Dewar! You can’t go in without an appointment!"

George’s exasperated assistant followed me and tried to stop me again.

However, I ignored her instruction and barged in.

George was indeed having a meeting He was engaged with Jane and Boswell around the small meeting table.

As I entered, they all looked up at me, disturbed.

"George, is your office accessible to just anyone right now?"

Jane asked coldly George frowned but didn’t answer her Boswell however, greeted me with a gentle look

"Miss Dewar, what do you want to see George so urgently about? We are in an important meeting If you’re not in a hurry, you could come back when we’re done"

I nodded apologetically "I apologize for my intrusion I’ll wait outside When I was about to leave, George addressed me "What do you want? With a frown, he suspended the meeting, got up, walked to his

desk and invited me in I felt it was inappropriate to discuss Lucy’s matter in front of Jane and Boswell, so i flinched

"I didn’t mean to bother you.I can come back some other time"

I had suddenly lost the confidence I had rushed in with I admitted I was a bit impulsive, and I regretted it the moment I barged in But I had no choice.I had to talk to George "Helen, I’mri very busy Tell me what you need."

He looked at me emotionless Even so, he still sat back down at his desk and waited patiently for me to explain my urgency I clenched my fists and plucked up the courage

"If you are upset about what happened between us, I am ready to apologize to you I think you know how difficult it was for Lucy to finally get Dyer to New York from Florida The task was fraught with challenges yet she succeeded in her assignment."

George looked at me, confused.

"What exactly do you want to say "I mean that although things didn’t work out between us, that does not mean that you should take it out on Lucy She has dedicated a lot to this position and has worked extremely hard Why haven’t you held up your end of the bargain and paid her the commission she is duly entitled to? Besides, Lucy is very persistent She will definitely hound Dyer until he joins Zhester Technology."

I said firmly All of a sudden, George burst out into a horrendous laugh that left me shocked.It was filled with cold haughtiness.

"Do you honestly think that I instructed them to make life difficult for Lucy?"

Had I misunderstood him? Why would they treat Lucy so rudely if George hadn’t instructed them to? I subconsciously wanted to argue back, but when I saw the anger on his face, I held back my words.

I looked at him sharply with my head high in an unyielding manner.

"Who are you to barge into my office and question me?" George asked reproachfully staring at me "Do you think I am the genie who will fulfill your every command?"

I was stunned by George’s words.

Why was I so confident before I came in? I had assumed that George had a soft spot for me and would give in to my demands.

Hence, my gatecrashing his office..His stern questioning made me suddenly ashamed of myself for having crossed the line.

"I’m sorry for my impulsiveness.I just wanted to seek justice for Lucy." I said to George.

trying really hard to keep calm "I know that Lucy will get Dyer into the company. I sincerely hope you will deliver on your promise."

After finishing my words, I left his office without looking back.I ran away as fast as my legs would carry me the moment I closed the door.I had committed a terrible mistake.

Although George and I were never in a serious relationship, we were close for a while As a result of that, I was probably looking at the current situation with rose tinted glasses.

George was absolutely right.

It was not within my rights to question him.

Jane’s POV

I took a look at the closed door and then at George, my eyes shouting in silence Although he pretended to be fine, I could still see widespread sadness and loneliness in his eyes Before I could recover from the shock, I saw George make internal calls to the human resource and the finance departments to confirm payment of Lucy’s commission "Yes.Pay her from my personal account.Do it now!"

There was no hesitation or strain in his voice Because of a woman, he had once again broken the principles that he had adhered to for years "What was that all about?"

Boswell asked curiously "Let’s continue with the meeting."

George deliberately changed the subject.

He sat back down at the meeting table, without offering any kind of explanation Boswell and I looked at each other and realized that it was Helen whom George really loved Lucy was just a smoke screen.

How on earth could it be Helen? Why did George love her? Why her of all people? I kept running these questions in my mind.

The nightmare of my youth suddenly swept over me, and I was caught off guard.. NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

After work, I called my mother "Did you have a quarrel with George?" my mother asked before I could say anything My mother and I were more like best friends than mother and daughter.

She could always read right through me.

"No,"

I denied "I haven’t seen George for a long time I am planning to come there next week.Is that okay with you?" my mother said softly.

– "Mom, what makes you want to come back so suddenly?" I asked in surprise.

My mother had not come back even once since we moved abroad.

"You’ve gone back.What’s the point of me living abroad alone? I’m lonely here.I’ve been abroad for too long.No matter how good the life here is, there’s no place like home," my mother replied.
