My Ex-wife's Hidden Personalities

Helga’s gaze darted between Radley and Riley.

Her goal had always been to establish a connection with the Freemans. A favorable rapport with Riley could pave the way for much-needed financial support from the Freeman Group, perhaps even quelling the troublesome shareholders investigating the mica incident.

However, Radley posed a significant hurdle.

With Riley’s impending defeat, her efforts to please her seemed futile.

Taking a deep breath, Helga withdrew her hand from Riley’s grasp.

“Riley! I never thought you would deceive me like this! I genuinely believed you were the mastermind behind that formula two years ago. I almost unjustly accused Miss Freya because of it. Your deception knows no bounds!”

Riley’s legs gave way, and as Helga released her, she collapsed to the ground. The onlookers. made way for the unfolding drama, but none dared to intervene.

With eyes filled with disbelief, Riley glared at Helga, her gaze smoldering with resentment.

“Helga, what are you talking about?”

Helga replayed the recording in her mind. She had hurled harsh words at Freya and enlisted. Leah to steal her formula.

However, no d*mning evidence linked her to the mysterious photo album. She could argue that Riley had manipulated her into nurturing baseless suspicions against Freya for far too long.

Determined, Helga realized that, having offended the Freeman, she now needed to secure favor with the Monaghans or the Kaufmanns.

She turned around, tears welling up in her eyes, and threw a pitiful glance at Radley. “Mr. Monaghan! My choice of friends was misguided. I had always seen Riley as a kind-hearted. person. She never missed an opportunity to malign Miss Freya in my presence, fueling my resentment. I genuinely believed that Miss Freya was guilty of the offenses Riley accused her of, which led Leah to steal her formula. Yet, Riley later confessed to me that Miss Freya had indeed copied her accomplishments.” Helga quickly concocted a justification for herself.

Freya stood nearby, somewhat impressed.

Wow! It is why she succeeded in establishing her independent brand. Despite her modest talents, she possessed a gift for persuasive rhetoric, a valuable asset in the cutthroat world of business.

“It was Riley who misled me and led me to wrongly accuse Miss
