Helena now understood that Haden was Susan’s grandfather.


    Before this, Willis had prohibited her from revealing her married status and, more importantly, his name to Haden.


    It turned out there was a deeper reason for that.


    Her own grandfather had epted her arch-rival as a disciple and even praised her highly.


    How could she endure this?


    Susan bent down to pick up her fallen bag, dusted it off vigorously, releasing her pent-up frustration.


    After cleaning the bag, she looked up, ncing at Helena disdainfully.


    Helena raised her chin, straightening her shoulders elegantly, standing tall and graceful. Her eyes met Susan’s with rity and confidence.


    Susan lost some of her momentum, snorted disdainfully, and said to Haden, “Grandpa, I won’t allow you to take her as your disciple!”


    Haden’s smiling face immediately turned serious, “Susan, what do you mean?”


    Susan said angrily, “I don’t like her!”


    Haden chuckled, “When I take on an apprentice, it’s about my preference, not yours.”


    Susan pouted, “Do you know who she is?”


    Haden yed with his beard, leisurely saying, “Yes, her name is Helena. She’s Ken’s granddaughter and now my apprentice.”


    Susan stomped her foot, “She’s still Willis’s wife!”


    Haden’s expression slightly paused. He nced at Helena and quickly said, “Who she’s married to has nothing to do with me taking her as my disciple. I choose my apprentices based on their talent, not their husbands.”


    Even her own grandfather seemed to be siding with Helena in every aspect.


    Susan couldn’t stand it.This content is ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Her features twisted in anger, and she impatiently said, “Willis and I grew up together since childhood. I’m recognized as the daughter-inw of their family. Helena stole my brother Willis!”


    Haden looked at her with a slightly confused expression, “Didn’t you and Willis break up three years ago?”


    Susan stubbornly said, “I went abroad to study. I couldn’t be with Willis during that time. The Santana family found him a nanny, Helena, to take care of him temporarily.”


    Helena couldn’t help but sneer.


    She had never seen someone so good at distorting facts and reversing right and wrong.


    The person involved was still standing right here.


    She dared to tell tant lies.


    Her shamelessness was almost as thick as a city wall.


    Helena cleared her throat and said to Haden, “Master, when Willis and I registered three years ago, he was single, and everyone can testify to that.”


    She added, “I didn’t tell you earlier because you didn’t ask. I also don’t like to casually talk about my private affairs.”


    After listening, Haden didn’t immediately respond.


    He raised his finger, slowly rubbing his beard, remaining silent and thoughtful.


    Seemingly contemting, making choices.


    Susan was overjoyed and eagerly asked, “Grandpa, are you going to cancel the master-disciple rtionship with Helena?”


    Haden, without much expression, nced at her and then shifted his gaze to Helena.


    Helena’s heart was suspended in her throat.


    To be honest, she was quite afraid that Haden would cancel their master-disciple rtionship.


    Learning skills from him was one reason.


    But also because they had been together day and night for over two months, forming a bond between master and disciple.


    Moreover, it was rted to her dignity.


    If Haden sided with Susan at this moment, she would be disgraceful.


    Helena didn’t want to lose to Susan.


    She didn’t want to lose to anyone.


    Haden lowered his eyes, staring at Helena for a moment, and then said, “Let’s go, Helena.”


    This “disciple” sounded like heavenly music in Helena’s ears.


    The heart that had been hanging in her throat thudded back into her chest.


    Haden walked towards the door.


    Helena, holding the jade pot and the spring bottle, followed his steps.


    Susan panicked.


    She caught up, grabbing Haden’s arm, coquettishly saying, “Grandpa, please, I know you love me the most. Please, please, expel Helena from the sect.”


    Helena got goosebumps all over her body.


    But she didn’t say anything.


    She just watched Haden’s back.


    Haden raised his eyelids, looked at Susan without expression, and then shifted his gaze back to Helena.


    Haden lifted his foot and walked out.


    Helena followed.


    Susan, infuriated, watched as the old and the young walked out side by side.


    Susan’s face contorted in anger.
