Her
Chapter 54

Chapter 54

At the exit used by the court personnel, a black Mercedes–Benz SUV was waiting at the door. Christian was already waiting in the car.

Jeffrey accompanied him.

Lex opened the car door, got in, and sat down beside him

“Why did you come out so late! What did you do?” Christian looked at her curiously.

He waited in the car for over ten minutes. The court wasn’t a shopping mall. He wondered what took Lea so long

Lea said, “I was just walking around. I thought you needed to rest for a while.” He was furious. His high blood pressure had probably not come down

“Walking around?” Christian thought, What kind of fetish is this? Why does she like to tour around the court?

Lea remained silent.

Christian then said to the driver, “Let’s go back”

Matilda did not come to the scene but stayed at home to watch the live broadcast. When she saw Shawn’s statement, she smashed the television with a bang

She took out her phone and called Nixon Donovan, giving him an order. “You have to remove Shawn’s statement from the Internet. Video, text, photos. Don’t leave any traces. We have to do a good job in public relations at all costs! We have to salvage Helen’s and my reputations! Once this is done, feel free to ask for anything you want. As long as it’s something I have, I’ll give it to you

Right now, she was helpless. The only person she could trust to help her was him.

Although their relationship was extraordinary, she knew how to win people’s hearts and use them for herself.

On the other end of the phone, Nixon laughed.

Wiping his lips, he said. “What are you talking about? It’s my responsibility to protect you and Helen, I’ll deal with it right away.

Matilda hung up the phone. Max Fraley came forward with an anxious expression “Madam, the stocks are falling again”

Matilda’s face turned ashen again

Max added, “What… what should we do now?”

The last time the stocks fell, they used up all the cash they could embezzle.

Max. continued, “And those trending topics on the Internet….”

She didn’t need to read it to know what the content would be and what the news media would write about her and Helen,

She said. “Prepare the car first. Let’s go to the villa”

These things were no

were not as important as making sure that Christian was settled.

When Lea and Christian returned home, Matilda was already waiting in the hall

Hearing the commotion outside, she got up to welcome him. She saw Lea helping Christian into the house.

It was two o’clock in the afternoon, the summer afternoon sun was exceptionally bright. As it shone on Lea, she exuded the aura of youth and was devastatingly beautiful.

In just a few days, her temperament and aura had improved a lot. She had grown a loc

Christian and Lea looked like they loved each other and cared about each other,

Matilda was instantly envious.

Christian was cold and austere by nature and did not like to be close to his descendants.

Back then, when Helen had an artificial brain and was a genius girl, he was overjoyed. He was so excited that he even said that he wanted her to inherit the Berry Group. However, he still had never been so close to Helen

Helen was also a little afraid of him.

Chapter 54

Now, apparently, Lea had broken this habit of his.

If this went on for a long time, coupled with the fact that Helen was still being detained, Matilda felt that Christian would definitely give the Berry Group to Lea.

She thought ‘No, I will never let that happen!

Lea was also sizing her up.

Matilda had lost a lot of weight and her eyes were dark. It seemed that she had not slept well recently. Her exquisite and thick makeup could not hide her haggardness. Her backbone was also a little bent, and her bearing was not as good as before.

A smile appeared on Lea’s face,

Matilda’s pupils dilated, and she gritted her teeth so hard that they almost shattered. However, she quickly reurained her expression and went forward gently to support Christian, “Dad, you’re back!”

Christian raised his hand and avoided her.

Her face turned pale and she froze on the spol.

Lea turned around and gave her a mocking and provocative look. She helped Christian sat down o

Matilda’s pupils diluted again and she almost lost control. She wanted to pounce on Lea and tear her apart. Lea liked to see the way that Matilda was angry and unable to release her anger,

Lea thought, Isn’t she always elegam? Then I will make her lose control bit by bit and become ugly.

After helping Christian sit down, Lea sat down in an armchair at the side and said to the servant, “Melissa, make a cup of coffee for Grandpa and I..

“Will do.” Melissa Powell went to the kitchen.

Matilda glared at Lea coldly again and thought. This little bastard acts like the owner of this residence already!

Matilda composed her expression and came forward. She stood in front of Christian and did not dare to sit down.

She looked at Christian and then at Lea Lea sat there openly, waiting to see her make a fool of herself

Matilda could not chase Lea away in front of Christian. The situation was urgent, and she had to do something serious. “Dad, the things that Shawn said and the rumors online are all slandering the Berry family. Their goal is to destroy the Berry family. Don’t believe the rumors.”

At this point, her eyes turned red and tears flickered as if she had suffered a great injustice. To thinking of a way to deal with these things. I definitely think of a way to make up for the company’s losses.”

When Christian heard this, his face turned ashen and his expression resolute. He did not say a word.

Matilda felt even more apprehensive when she could not see his reaction.

“Shawn was sentenced to death. That’s why he has nothing to worry about. He’s spouting nonsense. He’s deliberately smearing our family!” Anyway, there was no evidence, so she could say whatever she wanted

As long as she refused to admit it, Matilda didn’t think that she would be held accountable.

“Enough” Christian was furious. His voice was so loud that the hall shook.

Matilda trembled as well.

Christian asked, “Matilda, let me ask you now. Is the school killing related to Helen?”

She looked at Christian in shock. Facing his bright eyes and resolute expression, her breathing sank.

“No, absolutely not?” she said firmly, “Helen will be acquitted at the trial tomorrow,”

Christian heaved a long sigh of relief.

As long as Helen did not do this, everything che was fine with him,

The incident with Shawn was over. He had been sentenced to death, his company had gone bankrupt, and his family was heavily in debt. The outcome was even more tragic than what Christian had asked for previously.

Christian was satisfied.

Chapter 54

Although there was this scandal now, it could be completely suppressed.

Lea looked up at Matilda with a hint of shock in her eyes, Matilda sounded so confident that it was as if she was telling the truth.

If Lea didn’t know the truth, she wouldn’t have suspected her.

That was what made Matilda so good. She could twist the truth and rewrite the thith whenever she wanted to do something

Christian asked again, “Did you abort the child in that woman’s stomach!”

Matilda’s expression changed.

Someone had actually taken a video of Janice Gibbs’s incident and posted it online. Before Shawn was tried in coun, it even became a trending topic. Later on, it was pushed down

Matilda had yet to deal with that incident.

She did not expect Christian to replace out about it.

She uid, “Dxd, 1.. I didn’t mean that. No matter how angry I am. I won’t hurt innocent children. I was too angry at that time. That woman even wanted me to divorce Ewan and leave the Berry family to give up my position for her. In a moment of anger, I asked the bodyguard to teach her a lesson. I didn’t expect the bodyguard to be so heavy–handed and hurt the child

She was the one who wanted to abort the child. Now, she had pushed the blame in the bodyguard and appeared innocent.

“You shouldn’t have let this go viral and be known to so many people” Christian’s hear was filled with resentment. He was dissatisfied that she was so ruthless and vicious to an unborn child.

As for that mistress and child, when Matilda and Ewan got married, Christian had said that Ewan was not allowed to have a mistress and even had a baby

He could not care less about the former, but he was okay with aborting the baby to protect the interest of Marilda.

Matilda heaved a sigh of relief. “Dad, I’m sorry, I was wrong

If Christian did not pursue the matter, she would not lose anything,

She subconsciously glanced at Lea, not knowing if this matter had anything to do with her.

However, she did not see any laws in Lea’s face.

“Go home. Bring Helen home tomorrow. I’ll take care of the company Christian’s tone became peaceful. He was still supporting her.

“Yes, thank you, Dad” Matilda gave Lea a deep look, demonstrating and warning.

She thought, 1 am only temporarily affected. When I bring Helen back. I will deal with you.

Lea looked at her coldly. After being reborn, she was fearless.
