Hiding Behind Her Superficiality novel Chapter 533

Chapter 533 You’re No Match

"So, this has been going on for such a long time?" Simone's eyes lit up. She hadn't expected Yelena to be the one who had saved her son. Furthermore, she had no idea that her son had been motivated to inherit the business at a younger age just so that he could support Yelena's career to repay her kindness. Interesting… This is really interesting.

"Are you mad at me, Miss Balkan?" Even though Yelena had been transparent about everything, she still felt rather anxious. Hank spent a large sum of his money on me. Wouldn't Miss Balkan be furious to hear this?

"Why should I be angry?" Simone chuckled. "Isn't it great that both of you managed to support each other at different points in life?" Support… I don't think I've supported Hank in any way, Yelena thought.

"I think you might have misunderstood something, Miss Balkan. We've already broken up with each other, and I…" Yelena felt rather helpless at that point. Does this mean that Miss Balkan is actually supportive of our relationship? In that case, why did we rush into this whole act of breaking up with each other?

"I know… But that's such a shame." Simone let out a sigh before she took a sip out of her teacup. "I'm sure Hank is really fond of you, but I don't know why you guys broke up in the end. Why don't you tell me about it?" she asked.

Yelena gulped. "We broke up because he had to go on a blind date." Simone nearly spat out her tea after hearing Yelena. However, she was a cultured woman, so she managed to calm herself down before speaking. "So, are you saying that the brat, Hank, dumped you over this matter?" she asked in the most pleasant tone she could manage.

Hank, a brat… Yelena felt like her brain was covered by a layer of fog. For some reason, she found it rather bizarre to hear Simone speak of her son in that way. Yelena was about to explain herself when someone knocked on her door again. "Let me get that." Yelena flashed Simone a smile before she hurried to the entrance. She had just opened the door when she found herself greeted by a warm hug.

Hank rushed into the room and scanned Yelena from head to toe to make sure that she was still in one piece. "I'm glad you're fine," he uttered with a sigh. "Why wouldn't I be?" Yelena was puzzled for a moment. However, she then noticed Simone from the corner of her eye, and she finally understood what Hank meant. It seemed like Hank had found out about his mother's visit, and he had rushed over just to support her.

However… "I'm still here." Simone's voice was calm, and she didn't reveal any emotions in her tone. Yelena spun around and glanced in Simone's direction before she pushed Hank a little farther away from her. "Miss Balkan is still here. You should watch what you're doing," Yelena whispered.

"So, this has been going on for such a long time?" Simone's eyes lit up. She hadn't expected Yelena to be the one who had saved her son. Furthermore, she had no idea that her son had been motivated to inherit the business at a younger age just so that he could support Yelena's career to repay her kindness. Interesting… This is really interesting.

"I don't know why you showed up here today, Mom. However, we've already broken up, so I hope you don't come over to bother Yelena from now on," Hank uttered in a firm and icy tone. It seemed like he was certain that Simone had visited Yelena just to threaten Yelena to stay away from him. Yelena quickly shook her head. "It isn't what you think. There has been a misunderstanding," she uttered worriedly.

"Don't be afraid. I know you must feel bad. You need to tell me if she threatened you in any way," he replied.

"Hey, didn't you guys break up with each other already? Why are you guys still clinging to one another?" Simone let out an amused giggle. "That's enough. I'm not as mean as you guys think I am," she uttered while standing up with her bag. "But… It's true that you guys cannot be together. I'm sure you know why."
