Take Back All She Lost novel Chapter 34

Helena rushed out of the hospital, her steps unsteady, and came to find Wilfred.

“Fred, I don’t care about the nasty comments online. I’ll respond soon and say it was my fault, that I was too attached to Fred, and Fred was just pitying me… Let them scold me, as long as it doesn’t affect you or Novo Tech.”

Wilfred was deeply moved, and his resolve to protect Helena grew even stronger.

“How could I possibly throw you out there to take the bullet?”

“Don’t worry, Novo Tech isn’t short on money.”

“Fred, I’m sorry. Maybe I shouldn’t have come back from abroad.‘

Helena was still ill, and the way she fought back tears was truly heartbreaking.

“Don’t say such silly things. Go back for now. Once this is over, I’ll come keep you company.”

“Okay, I’ll wait for you.”

As Helena wiped her tears, her expression subtly changed.

“Retreat to advance“-this was something that stubborn Josephine would never understand.

***

When Josephine woke up, she found the bell had lost its power.

Her account had been suspended for twenty days.

Who knew what underhanded tricks Wilfred had used this time.

No matter how she shook the bell, it was useless.

She comforted herself after all this time, the scandal had already fermented. In the eyes of others, Wilfred and Helena were no longer seen as pure and innocent.

This outcome was already much better than she had imagined, wasn’t it?

Josephine pretended not to care.

She went about her routine: washing up, doing laundry, searching for job opportunities in Vexford, and getting rejected as usual.

Everything seemed perfectly normal on the surface.

Only she knew that she was on the verge of falling apart.

She even considered going abroad to start over, but she couldn’t let it go.

The people who ruined her reputation hadn’t been ruined themselves!

Josephine hugged her knees, buried her head, and stayed sad for quite a while.

She remembered her father’s advice: “No matter how big the problem, you can’t stay sad for too long.”

She immediately took a deep breath and adjusted her state of mind.

She went to the bathroom and washed her face.

After receiving a call from the agent about a house viewing, she put on makeup and left the house looking energetic.

The agent followed behind Josephine, desperately trying to sell the place:

“This apartment has the best value for money in all of Vexford–city center, prime location, south–facing, with complete commercial facilities nearby…”

Josephine interrupted him: “What about the downsides?”

“Ah, its downside is also its upside–the commercial facilities around here are just too complete.”

Josephine took a look around and realized the agent wasn’t lying.

There were bars, hotels, adult stores, pharmacies, and even a chess club all around.

At night, there would definitely be traffic jams, no way to go for a night run, and it would affect her sleep.

Just as she was hesitating about whether to take it, Josephine saw Zachery coming out of the chess club.

His shirt had two buttons undone, dark circles under his eyes, looking like he’d stayed up all night, and he seemed exhausted.

He saw her too, clearly startled, then walked over.

“Josephine, what are you doing here?”

Josephine answered honestly, “Looking at apartments. Dr. Maynard, you are…?”

“Ha, Dr. Castro had a last–minute surgery last night and asked me to fill in for him at cards.

Josephine raised her eyebrows, “You lost?”

Zachery took off his glasses with a wry smile. “I lost all of Natalia’s summer daycare fees.”
