Chapter 68: The Talk? Yes! 5

When it came to the business partnership, with their wedding, it definitely boosted both their businesses by a huge margin.

If they divorce, it will definitely affect them again. It will most probably be in a negative light.

That was why, Helena was more concerned about their business point of view and started to think about the plans to salvage the situation.

They have to come up with a great plan so that even if they divorce, it wouldn’t affect them negatively. If possible, it should even help them boost their businesses a little. it might sound a little too fantastic but with proper planning, she thinks it is actually feasible.

Vernon understood everything.

He also slowly understood about the Helena from his previous life a little.

In their previous life, Helena loved him. He loved Helena as well.

It was after they got married to each other. So, their feelings slowly got stronger with each passing day of being together.

With their feelings involved, Helena couldn’t agree to the divorce like the Helena of the present.

Vernon understood this now.

He slowly nodded.

Anyway, she agreed to the divorce and she also had no hard feelings against him.

This is the most perfect outcome he could achieve in this life.

So, he felt over the moon. He did not expect this outcome at all.

He smiled softly.

Helena blinked her eyes and looked at him.

She did not know what he was thinking nor did she care.

"Anyway, you said that there is still a year, right? Fine. Let’s be together for a year and then get separated. In this one year, let’s think of a good reason and plan," She said.

Vernon understood her words and nodded, "Okay."

They stayed in silence for a few minutes after that.

Vernon suddenly looked at her and asked, "Do we need a contract for our arrangement?"

Helena’s lips twitched, "Do you think we are in some sort of TV show? Do we need all that nonsense? Since we don’t want to stay together, we won’t stay together. That’s all. If one of us really changed our minds by the end, do you think the other can actually stop the first person? We have so many tricks up our sleeves to get what we want.

"Anyway, I decided to trust you. If you don’t trust me, you can get any contract you want. I will sign it for you."

She looked nonchalant about the whole issue.

One needs a contract when there is no trust between the two.

As Helena just said, she treated Vernon genuinely as her friend. How could she not trust her good friend?

Except for wanting a divorce right after getting married, he never broke his word before. So she trusted him and his morals.

Even if he wanted to break his word, what bad would happen to her? At most she will have to continue staying in the marriage. It is not like she cared about being in the marriage or leaving.

Nothing much would change in her life whether she was in the marriage or not.

Vernon, on the other hand, was shocked by how cool Helena was regarding the whole issue.

He knew she was a carefree spirit in her younger days. But after getting used to her mature wife-mode for the past ten years, he forgot about this carefree side of her.

He then shook his head, "There is no need. I trust you as well. I just thought you might want a contract so that you can feel secured. If you don’t want one, I don’t either."

Since Helena gave him the word, he trusted.

If she was still the scheming Helena of the past, he wouldn’t have trusted her as much.

But she was the young Helena. She is the daring and carefree Helena, who spoke her mind, did as she promised and stood by her word. He completely trusted this Helena.

"Okay, let’s go to the cemetery now?" Vernon asked.

Since they had finished their talk and it even ended on a ’good note’, he wanted to leave for his next ’task’.

Helena casually shrugged and got up from the chair while taking her bag.

While walking to the car, Helena couldn’t help but ask him, "So, what exactly is it that you want to talk to that man?"

"Umm... a warning?" He hesitantly said a word as the answer. He did not know how to explain this matter to her after all.

After they had this open conversation earlier, he felt that hiding things from her would look like he was keeping secrets from her.

"Warning? What warning?" Helena frowned when he said that he wanted to warn the ’older’ man she met the day before.

"Umm... I can’t explain this matter to you but I think his life is in danger. So, I just want to give him a warning in advance." Vernon decided to be as truthful as he could.

Helena had many doubts after listening to his ’explanation’ but since he said he couldn’t explain, she knew not to probe too much into the matter.

She pursed her lips while she nodded, "Then I think it is better for you to warn him anonymously."

Vernon frowned and looked at her.

Helena looked seriously at him and gave a nod.

Vernon thought carefully and thought that that would be the best solution to all his problems at the moment.

He has been wondering about how to explain himself when he warned that man.

But if he were to talk to him anonymously, then there is no need to think too much and just warn him and finish the matter.

Vernon doesn’t know that man at all. Except for what would happen to him in a week, he knows nothing about him.

As long as he warned him sincerely, then no matter what happens to him later wouldn’t disturb his conscience.

"You are right. That’s what I should do then," Vernon nodded and agreed with her ’plan’.
