Chapter 16
At the age of 21, she would definitely have refused. At that time, she was too naive and young, thinking that as long as she loved someone sincerely, she would definitely see results.
However, it only confirmed the old saying that one does not turn back. until they hit the south wall.
She is now 28 years old. For Calvin, she had been exhausted both. physically and mentally, to the point where she didn’t even have the energy to spare for others.
Loving another person again was exhausting. She thought she was better off being taken care of now.
Helena blinked and smiled, “Sure.”
For several days in a row, Vicente was particularly clingy, as if he had already forgotten the previous estrangement and was completely devoted to the relationship.
The service attitude was also excellent, Helena hardly needed to move, she could have everything she needed at her fingertips. Just like she used. to serve Calvin..
Is this the vigor of young people? Endless energy, as if there is no need for rest at all, so vigorous that it seems inexhaustible. In just a few days, she visited countless tourist attractions.
However, it was particularly fierce at night. Just the first time, Vicente paused and suddenly asked, “Baby, have you never done this before?”
Helena closed her eyes and subconsciously thought of Calvin. After seven

years of a sexless marriage, she would feel ashamed with any other
woman.
Seeing Helena lost in thought, Vicente’s brow twitched slightly.
Jealously, he kissed Helena and mumbled, “Don’t think about him, okay?”
“I didn’t think so,” Helena cooed as she pinched his earlobe.
Vicente got up, his eyes dark, “I didn’t even say who it was, and you still didn’t think about it, did you?”
Helena could only remain silent.
No matter what, she was still a woman who had experienced a marriage. Even if she was heartless, it had been less than half a month since her divorce, and Helena found it difficult to completely forget about Calvin’s
existence.
However, just as she was about to apologize, Vicente forcefully blocked her lips and used all sorts of tricks to prevent her from saying a complete sentence, leaving her only able to utter a few fragmented sounds.
In an instant, a murky smell lingered in the air.
The next morning, she opened her eyes and found no one by her bedside.
In the phone lay quietly the messages from Vicente,
Baby, there is some work at the company, I need to go and deal with it.
After a few minutes, he added, “I will come back in the evening.”
It was obvious that he was feeling jealous, sulking, and seeking comfort.
Helena raised an eyebrow and did not reply to the message.
After she got up, she went to the supermarket to buy some ingredients,

planning to treat the young people’s stomachs well in the evening.
In the evening, she was in the kitchen preparing food with an apron tied around her. Suddenly, footsteps came from behind her. Before she could turn around, the man grabbed her from behind with great force.
Vicente’s stubble tickled her shoulder. Helena, feeling a bit itchy, pushed him away with a smile and said, “Okay, go wash your hands and let’s eat.”
However, the man remained motionless, still holding her tightly in his original position.
Helena did not refuse outright, she just casually said, “We ran out of everything last night, and I forgot to buy more today. If you still want some, we’ll have to buy a few new boxes.”
The hand around her waist suddenly tightened. Helena did not notice. anything unusual, thinking that Vicente was just young and thin–skinned, unable to withstand such teasing.
The next second, a very heavy closing door sound suddenly came from behind.
Vicente’s voice, filled with suppressed anger, suddenly rang out.
“What were you doing?”
Helena looked up in astonishment and instinctively glanced down at her hand on her waist.
No, there was a callus at the tiger’s mouth caused by long–term holding of the pen… and there were new layers of gauze wrapped around the wrist!
He was not Vicente.
Was Calvin…
