Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 727: Just Give Up

Helen's POV:

After dropping a bombshell, George's mother turned around and left, leaving me no chance to respond.

As I watched her walk away, a cold feeling washed over me as if a bucket of ice water was poured onto me.I had to admit, at first, I was hesitant about being in a relationship with George.But as time went by, I became headstrong.I did not let my fears and worries control me.It was difficult for the two of us to be together.

Why would let anyone separate us? I did not have to think it through to know that I was in disagreement.I did not do anything wrong, did [? Why should I give up the happiness I had tried so hard to get? Still, I was in a dilemma.I had never once thought of breaking up with George, but his mother's words got into me.

At this moment, a sense of powerlessness came over me, making me breathless.

As soon as I stepped out of the hospital, I found that Phil had not yet left.

When he saw me, he started the engine and stopped in front of me.

"As long as you're with George, these problems will keep coming.But don't worry.Everything's gonna be okay.For now, hop in and let's get back to work."

Phil opened the door and let me in.He probably thought that I had encountered a simple test before I could marry a rich and powerful man.

Obviously, he had no idea about the complexities behind it.

Well, I was too tired and weak to explain everything to him anyway.

From the moment George's mother found out that I was Bob Dewar's daughter, no matter how strong my relationship with George was, us living a quiet life had become wishful thinking.

On the way back to the law firm, Phil told me that he wanted to introduce a financing project of a real estate company to me.

"You've done a great job in your project with the Leeson Holdings.The way I see it, you won't have a problem in the real estate industry.Anyway, the preliminary negotiation has been completed, and the = specific implementation id just about to start.I can give you this part if you want."

"l see.I'll think about it.Thank you, Phil," I said with a grateful smile.

I tend to overthink if I had nothing to do.So if I was busy, I probably would not have time to think about the threat of George's mother.But for some reason, at the mention of the Leeson Holdings project, I felt a pang in my heart.

"Phil, do you think there'll be anything wrong with the Leeson Holdings project?" I asked uneasily.
