Helen Xie personally tore up the contract between Yueji Cosmetic Corp and Mingyang Corp. which meant that Yueji Cosmetic Corp would abandon its partnership with Mingyang Corp.
As a result, Yueji Cosmetic Corp would have to find a new investor as soon as possible if it wanted to survive.
After briefly packing up, Helen, under Mrs. Xie's surprised gaze, headed to the place Dale Chen told her to discuss the details.
While leaving the neighborhood, Helen, however, did not notice that not far away, there were two figures slowly approaching.
"Abe, was that Helen?"
One of the men pushed slightly the other man next to him, sounding surprised.
The two men were Abe Chou and Carlson Niu who returned after drinking.
Abe Chou shook his head and that was when he got a good look at Helen Xie.
"Yes, that's her, but where is she going?"
Abe had just had a lot to drink and was a little groggy at the moment. He had forgotten that Helen Xie was determined to divorce him earlier.
"Shall we follow up?" Carlson quickened his pace.
"Let’s go, I'd like to see what she's doing!" Abe Chou didn't think much of it, mumbling drunkenly.
They took a cab and followed Helen all the way to a club on the west side of town.
Abe Chou and Carlson Niu hadn't even gotten out of the cab when Helen Xie got out and a man came up to her.
"Fuck! It's Dale Chen!” Abe Chou rubbed his eyes hard and became furious when he got a good look at the man.
He never would have thought that Helen would be here to see Dale Chen in such an hour. Had she forgotten what that scumbag did to her last time?
"He must be planning something!" With a low growl, Carlson got out of the car and strode towards Dale Chen.
Abe Chou tried to stop them, but it was too late.
"Bastard!" With a shout, Carlson threw his fist directly at Dale Chen.
Yet, because of the alcohol, he couldn't control his body at all, so not only did he not hit Dale Chen, but because of the strong inertia, his body couldn't stop stumbling forward and directly rushed to the ground.
"Who the hell are you?" Dale Chen looked at Carlson with a angry face, very guarded.
"Carlson Niu?" Helen Xie, instead, recognized him right away.
After all, during the previous three years, Carlson had often hung out with Abe, and Helen had been patient enough to pick up the drunken Abe Chou several times, so she knew him.
Carlson was here, so Abe must be nearby as well.
Helen Xie turned around immediately and saw Abe walking over with a gloomy face.
"I was wondering who it was, it’s you, Abe. It's just in such an hour, why didn’t Ms. Shen ask you to spend the night with her?"
Dale Chen brought up Bonita Shen deliberately.
As soon as Helen heard the words Ms. Shen, her eyebrows furrowed together and her eyes became much colder.
"Are you following me, Abe Chou?"
Helen asked coldly.
She didn't believe this was a chance encounter and by the looks of Abe and Carlson, it was obvious that they had followed her all the way here.
"We're not divorced yet, Helen, and tell me what’s so good about him! He’s just a scum!”
Alcohol turned Abe's into muddle, but the last shred of clarity told him that Helen Xie was out at night to see Dale Chen.
The man who had been involved in Abe Chou and Helen Xie's three-year marriage had made Abe Chou aware of a great crisis from the moment he appeared.
Abe was a man, and a full-blooded one at that. He couldn't hold back his anger anymore, and for the first time, he lashed out at Helen Xie.
For a moment, everyone was silent.
Dale Chen didn't say a word, and he just smiled at Abe Chou.
And Carlson got up and walked over to Abe, glaring at Helen Xie and Dale Chen.
Helen was stunned as well. She simply couldn't believe what she was hearing.
Abe Chou was yelling at her.
During the three years of marriage, even the presence of Dale Chen and Mrs. Xie's aggressiveness didn’t infuriated Abe like this, and not to mention that she filed for divorce twice in a row.
"Abe Chou, you disappoint me so much, you never got to know me!" Helen put on a miserable smile, and her big, bright eyes were full of disappointment, "Do you expect to be helpful, being a shareholder in Mingyang Corp. Now? I don’t need your mercy!"
She thought that by filing for divorce, she could at least make Abe Chou reflect on himself, but it never occur to her that he would become even more incomprehensible.
"Then did you ever get to know me, huh!?” Abe tried to control his voice, but still, he yelled out, reaching out his hands directly to grab Helen's shoulders with a pair of red eyes.
All the hidden emotions of the past three years seemed to be about to explode at once.
"It has been three years, but do ever you take me as your husband for real? While him? When he came back, your whole family was sticking up for him and treating me like a piece of shit!"
Abe Chou's fury grew and the veins stood out on his arms, but he didn't hurt Helen Xie in the least.
"Now, when I finally made it to something, you said you wanted to divorce me, again! Why? Why!? "
It was the first time Helen knew what Abe was thinking, and she was at a loss for words.
Abe Chou's words contained many things that she hadn't noticed before.
Or she did had noticed but hadn't cared.
"Abe Chou, I'm warning you, let go of Helen quickly, who do you think you are to treat Helen like this? I've already connected a few more investors for Helen, and this time, you can't stop it!"
Dale Chen's eyebrows raised as he tried to reach out to dislodge Abe's hand holding on Helen shoulder, but he just couldn't.
"If you don't let go, Abe Chou, don't blame me for going hard on you!"
Dale Chen, feeling embarrassed, couldn't be bothered to put on an act and threatened immediately.
“You ask for it!" Abe left Dale Chen's hand up in the air and dialed a number, "Master Tiger, I need some help, borrow me some people."
It was Master Tiger he was calling. For Master Tiger's purpose, Abe Chou already knew.
While marveling at Master Tiger's vision about himself, Abe Chou would not be shy about borrowing Master Tiger's power.
"Hmph, yeah, like you know who Master Tiger is. You can’t scare me, loser." Dale tuned to his assistant, "Go tell Master Sean that I’m handling something, tell them to wait for a minute."
Dale Chen was dismissive and just assumed Abe Chou was posing. He didn’t think Abe could know anyone in power outside except for Mingyang Corp.
"What happened Dale, you kept me waiting so long, you’re going to have to have a few more drinks later to make amends." A man came out of the club.
