The Divorcee Amazed the World

Chapter 142: You Need Me (1)



Helena immersed herself in the observation for a whole morning.

Standing there without moving, completely absorbed.

Because photography was not allowed in the museum, and high-quality images couldn’t be found online, she had to rely on her memory.

The details were numerous, requiring a lot of brainpower.

The servant accompanied her, feeling puzzled. Wasn’t it just a painting? She couldn’t understand why Helena spent so much time, seemingly tirelessly. Helena, on the other hand, felt restless and couldn’t appreciate the painting’s charm. All she could see was a big, sturdy mountain, much more imposing than the mountains in her hometown. Besides that, there wasn’t much else.

But for Helena, it was fascinating, almost intoxicating.

She stood in front of “Journey through Mountains and Rivers” for a long time.

Jay silently watched her from a distance for a long time.

There was an indescribable tenderness in his eyes and eyebrows.

Just looking at her from afar made him content.

The museum on Wednesday was quiet, spacious, lonely, and filled with a thick sense of historical solitude. However, Jay didn’t feel lonely at all because Helena was there.

His heart was serene; no matter what she was doing or thinking, being quietly with her felt wonderful.

Even if there was a considerable distance between them.

Even if she didn’t know he was watching her.

Even if she couldn’t recognize who he was.

Helena memorized and thoroughly understood every detail of the painting before turning to leave.

At the moment she turned around, Jay took a step ahead, swiftly moving behind the wall to avoid her gaze.

The servant caught up with Helena’s pace.

The four bodyguards also followed behind her, keeping a distance of three meters.

It ensured her safety without making her feel uncomfortable.

Jay followed suit, using his long legs to keep a distant but vigilant watch.

As they exited the museum gate, the group walked towards the roadside.

They were about to hail a cab to go back to the hotel.

After waiting for just a few minutes, a motorcycle suddenly emerged from an oblique direction!

A person sitting in the back reached out to snatch Helena’s bag!

In a split second!

Jay rushed over at arrow-like speed!

With a crisp sound, the robber’s arm was broken!

The assailant clutched his broken arm, howling in pain!

By the time the bodyguards reacted, the motorcycle had already hastily fled!

The entire incident happened so suddenly that Helena’s heart pounded fiercely.

Jay quickly grabbed her arm, asking, “Are you okay?”

Helena shook her head, “I’m fine.”

The bodyguards quickly surrounded her, asking, “Helena, are you alright?”

Helena said, “I’m fine. Call the police if you need to.”

Jay said, “A pair of motorcycle thieves, thinking you might have valuable items in your bag due to your special temperament, wanted to make quick money. We’re from out of town; it would be a bit troublesome to report to the police.”

Helena didn’t expect there to be motorcycle thieves here. She had bodyguards with her, and yet they dared to openly attempt a robbery.

They were really audacious.

But since her bag wasn’t taken, and she wanted to avoid trouble, she said, “Let’s forget about it.”

After saying that, she realized that her arm was still held by Jay.

Jay also noticed his lapse and hurriedly released her, saying, “Sorry.”

Helena calmed her emotions, “Thank you.”

Jay was afraid she would insist on repaying the favor and quickly said, “No need to thank me. It’s only right to lend a hand in the face of injustice. Anyone would have helped.”

Helena guessed his thoughts and smiled, “Why are you here on Treasure Island too?”

Jay smiled faintly, “I came to see a client here. Happened to pass by the museum and took a look. The collection at the Treasure Island Museum is rich; it’s regrettable not to visit while passing by.”

Helena believed him.

She thought Jay was a very reliable and trustworthy person.

He said anything, and she believed it.

Jay asked, “What about you? What are you doing here?”

Helena answered truthfully, “I came to see the work ‘Journey through Mountains and Rivers.'”

Jay, being in the antique auction industry, naturally was familiar with it and praised, “The ‘Journey through Mountains and Rivers’ is considered the top painting of the Song Dynasty.”Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Helena signed sincerely, “Indeed, seeing it once is better than hearing about it a hundred times. The composition of the painting is very rigorous, the picture is full and vast, the momentum is compelling, and the towering mountains are truly awe-inspiring.”

“Indeed, you came all the way here just to see it?”

“Someone asked me to replicate it.”

Jay raised an eyebrow, “Is it difficult?”

“It is. After all, it is a masterpiece, unparalleled for thousands of years. But I want to give it a try.”

Jay smiled and encouraged her, “You’ll definitely succeed.”

“Thank you.”

After thinking for a moment, she raised the water cup in her hand and handed it to Helena, saying, “Madam, please have some water.”

Helena was slightly surprised.

After the divorce with Willis, she had been calling herself Helena. Why did the servant suddenly change her address today?

Helena didn’t think too much about it, took the cup, had a sip, and then handed it back to the servant.
