Chapter 187: Helena’s Secret
"Of Evander," Gabriella clarified seeing the confusion on Viviana’s face. "He comes for that Leander likes. He’s such a..."
Gabriella’s face contorted with disgust.
Viviana wetted her lips and looked at Gabriella. "Well," she shrugged.
"Did he try something on you?" Gabriella grabbed Viviana’s shoulders.
Viviana told her everything that happened in the party hall that led to her "wedding" with Leander.
"Ah, the knight in shining armor!" Gabriella smiled.
"Wait," Viviana almost jumped. "If Evander comes for everyone closer to Leander, does he have something to do with the break up with Helena?"
"Helena?" Gabriella’s face twisted. "I don’t know for sure. But... Evander... Helena’s mother thought that she should marry the heir to one of the families, right? She’s not a very good woman..."
"I’ve seen her. She didn’t look so terrible," Viviana got into gossiping mode with Gabriella. "But Leander treated her very cruelly. Was she the one who broke them up?"
Gabriella shook her head and looked around. She then leaned closer and talked in a low voice." Helena’s mother was the mistress of the second son of the Bruno family."
"What?" Viviana was shocked.
"But somehow, she ended up becoming the wife. But her status among her peers never improved. No one respected her because she used to be the mistress. And she only had a single daughter. She was mocked for being unable to give an heir to her husband."
