When Vernon heard Helena defending him strongly against Tristan, he had a mixed feeling in his heart.
He understood just then how much Helena had trusted him. He was happy.
But he knew that he did not stand by her confidence. He felt guilty.
In his last life, she did not trust him as much anymore. He did not understand the reason. He was confused about what changed in her so much.
But when he recalled how she had treated him at the end of his previous life, he was furious.
With so many emotions, his entire body trembled.
"Vernon, are you okay?" Theo placed a hand on his shoulder and asked in concern.
Vernon looked at him and after a few seconds of processing what was happening, he nodded, "Yeah."
Theo did not ask anymore.
Despite many emotions and thoughts, the idea of Helena leaving the place alone made him feel bad for her.
He stood up from his seat and said to Theo, "I will go to her. Let's meet again later."
