"Faney?" Daniella and Venus stared in disbelief, eyes wide open at the nickname. Speechless, they wondered if they heard wrongly.
Daniella, all the more, was frozen on the spot. Did her sister not detest Fane? What was she doing all of a sudden?
Of course, she quickly caught on that Helena was using Fane to get rid of Second Young Master Hunt’s badgering. She might be able to frame Fane with this.
Fane also understood what was going on and immediately shook Helena’s hand away, taking two steps back. "First Young Mistress Cabello, please have some respect for yourself. I'm not interested in you, and I don't want to be your shield."
Second Young Master Hunt was initially enraged, but knowing what was happening, he grinned as he spoke, "You're a good actress, Helena Cabello. I almost believed you!"
Helena was naturally unwilling to admit defeat just like that. She immediately caught up with Fane and hugged his arm. ” Fane Woods, how can you do this? Didn't you say you're no coward? What’s going o n? How can you chicken out when a love rival suddenly pops up? You'll lose me if you're acting like this!"
Fane almost fainted; Helena truly was good at blaming others.
He got increasingly exasperated when Second Young Master Hunt did not seem to be any smarter. He was extremely angry when he saw Helena hugging Fane's arm and growled, “Young man, is what she's saying true? Are you truly her boyfriend? Are you that suicidal to take a woman from me?"
Helena even deliberately sobbed as she spoke, "Third Sister, I'm telling you that I've been together with Fane for so long now, so you can't think of breaking us up!"
Daniella was flabbergasted, not believing Helena would make things up like this just to harm Fane. However, her sister was right in one thing-she did like Fane.
She immediately responded, "Sister, what nonsense are you talking about? How can you harm Fane like this? He saved my life!"
Helena finally realized that her sister was too kind. She must have stood forward to speak on his behalf because he saved her.
