Chapter 526: Chapter 526: He Hits a Rock with an Egg
Ella would not let them take her away so easily.
“Young lady, I advise you not to stop us. This is a matter of the Windsor Royal Family and has nothing to do with you.”
The speaker was Duke Windsor, Charles, who was also the brother of Night Mother.
Night Mother is the youngest princess of the Windsor Royal Family. If she hadn’t left back then, she would now be Lady Windsor.
She fled the Windsor Royal Family back then because she fought with her father to escape an arranged marriage.
Ella stood in front of Night Mother, without a hint of panic.
Looking at the man before her, she said, “I’m sorry, but this matter indeed concerns .”
Charles frowned slightly.
Ella continued, “You want to take away my husband’s mother, you tell , does this concern or not?”
Upon hearing this, Charles squinted his eyes slightly, “What did you say?”
How did he not know his sister had a child?
At this mont, Ella was about to speak again, but Night Mother tugged at her clothes from behind.
“Shuangshuang.”
Ella heard her call her and turned around to look at her.
Night Mother shook her head at her.
Then, she looked at her brother whom she hadn’t seen for over twenty years.
Just as Charles stord in with people, Ella promptly blocked Night Mother, so he didn’t see her true appearance at first.
But before coming, he had seen her photo in the news.
At that ti, they nearly didn’t recognize this gaunt woman as the sister they had been searching for years.
They dared to confirm solely through those eyes and features.
Blue eyes symbolize the highest noble bloodline of the Windsor Royal Family; only those with this lineage possess the special blue eyes.
“Brother, long ti no see.”
Night Mother looked at him, her eyes slightly reddened, filled with mist.
Back then, she indeed was so capricious to flee the royal family; she could be said to regret, or not regret.
Regardless of whether she regretted or not, she endured the hardships, perhaps this is her destiny, she doesn’t bla anyone.
Charles gazing at her so closely also revealed a trace of heartache.
Originally, this sister of theirs should have been living a princess-like life. Who would have thought she would endure such suffering in the first half of her life?
Tortured into her current state.
After searching for so many years, they once thought she had passed away.
Seeing her at this mont, his feelings are extrely complex, not knowing what to say for a while.
But he just wants to bring her ho.
“Annie, co ho with brother, brother will get the best doctors for your treatnt, as for those who bullied you, the Windsor Royal Family will not spare them.”
His words had just fallen when, “click,” the door behind was pushed open again.
Ye Jiuqing rushed in, dust-laden.
“She won’t go back with you.”
Ye Jiuqing’s deep and cold voice rang out from behind.
Charles turned upon hearing it, eting Ye Jiuqing’s blue eyes, stunned slightly.
The news report did not cover Ye Jiuqing’s background, nor did it feature Ye Jiuqing, so he had never seen his true face.
The man’s tall and sturdy figure stood before him.
Charles frowned again.
Ye Jiuqing looked at him composedly, his voice indifferent yet firm, “Marquis Charles, I’m sorry, my mother won’t go back with you. Here, I have the sa ability to provide her the best treatnt.”
Charles looked at his face, similar to his sister and mother, indeed sowhat surprised.
So, this person before him is his nephew he has never t.
No need for any paternity test, this face and these blue eyes are the most powerful proof.
“What is your na?” Charles suddenly asked.
Ye Jiuqing: “…”
Yet he replied with three words, “Ye Jiuqing.”
Charles repeated, “Ye Jiuqing, the na is fairly well chosen, who nad you?”
His question changed a bit rapidly, and his tone wasn’t as strong as earlier.
Besides, his focus seems quite peculiar.
This made Ella and Ye Jiuqing montarily speechless.
Ye Jiuqing, known for his directness, said, “Isn’t the answer to this question quite obvious? My na was naturally given by my father.”
“And who is your father?”
“…”
Charles raised his brow slightly, “Your father would not be Ye Chongtian, would he?”
Ye Jiuqing did not respond.
But silence is sotis the best answer.
Charles knew Ye Chongtian; back then, when searching for his sister, he ultimately traced it to Ye Chongtian, and t him.
But at that ti, he didn’t ntion the existence of this child.
If he had known of Ye Jiuqing’s existence back then, no matter what he’d have taken him back.
…
Afterwards, the few then sat down face to face.
Charles looked at Ye Jiuqing, asked, “Is the Lei father and son in your hands?”
When he ca to the hospital, he had soone inquire at the police station, stating that the Lei father and son had been taken away.
Ye Jiuqing responded with a soft “Mm”.
“Hand them over to ,” Charles said.
Ye Jiuqing remained silent for a mont, “No need to trouble you, I’ll handle it myself.”
Charles, upon hearing this, scrutinized him a few more tis.
A fierce energy radiates from Ye Jiuqing, felt the mont he first laid eyes on him.
With them in his hands, their fate perhaps won’t be any better, so he didn’t inquire further.
Then, he looked at Night Mother, asking, “You really won’t co back with ? Father and mother miss you dearly, but they are old and not fit to travel far to see you.”
Speaking of the elderly couple caused Night Mother inevitable sadness and guilt.
But in her current state, going back would only worry them for her sake.
She said, “Brother, once my health improves a bit, I will return on my own. Convey to them that I am well, they don’t need to worry.”
“Here, I have Shuangshuang and Jiuqing taking care of , I won’t have any problems, so brother, you don’t need to worry about either.”
Charles seeing her say so, did not force her to go back with him either.
Seeing her in such a state, he couldn’t bear to force her.
Nonetheless, there are things he still needs to clarify.
“I want to see the Lei father and son.” He said, looking at Ye Jiuqing.
Ye Jiuqing replied, “Sure, I’ll have arrangents made for you shortly.”
Charles stayed in the hospital for a while, then left with Ye Jiuqing’s people.
…
In the afternoon.
Old Mr. Helan, along with Mr. and Mrs. Helan, ca to the hospital.
Ella introduced Night Mother to them one by one.
Mrs. Ye actually t Ling Xiyuan before.
She had an impression of her.
Back when she first arrived in Country F, everything was unfamiliar to her, and her wallet was stolen, containing all her docunts and important things, so she had nowhere to eat or stay.
Then she encountered Ling Xiyuan, who took her in for several days until the police helped her recover her belongings, after which she left.
Although their ti together was short, she still rembers what happened back then.
However, with her current appearance, she probably wouldn’t recognize her now.
But she didn’t expect Ling Xiyuan to be Shuangshuang’s mother.
This kind of fate is really amazing.
“In-law, just rest assured and recover well here. If you need anything, just let know.” Ms. Ling said to her.
Mrs. Ye looked at her and asked, “Do you really not recognize ?”
This question stunned everyone present.
Ling Xiyuan stared at her, thinking for a mont, but couldn’t rember imdiately.
Ella looked at Mrs. Ye and asked, “Mom, do you know my mom?”
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have asked such a question.
Mrs. Ye looked at Ling Xiyuan and continued, “When I first arrived in Country F, my wallet and docunts were stolen, and you took in.”
Upon hearing this, Ling Xiyuan seed to have a recollection.
She was sowhat surprised and said, “You were that person back then?”
The reason she could rember was mainly because of her eyes; among the people she knew, except for the current Ye Jiuqing, there was only the girl she brought ho back then.
But when she brought her ho, she didn’t return for several days due to work, leaving her alone there.
She had taken her ho mainly because she didn’t seem like a bad person, and her deanor was convincing.
Before taking her ho, she accompanied her to the police station to report the theft and, seeing she genuinely had nowhere to go, took her in for a few days.
However, after finishing her work and returning ho, she had already left.
She left a note for her back then.
Mrs. Ye nodded, “Yes, it was . I left in a hurry back then because of so issues and intended to co back to thank you in person once I settled down, but when I returned, you were no longer living there.”
Moreover, at that ti, she knew very little about Ling Xiyuan; she only knew her na and where she lived then.
Ling Xiyuan never expected the world to be so small.
When she went to look for her, perhaps due to work relocations, she went to another place, missing the chance.
Before marrying Helan Xunzheng, she was a translator, and her work often required travel.
The other three mbers of the Helan Family listened and found it quite dramatic.
Then, the two won started chatting.
The three with the surna Helan couldn’t get a word in.
“…”
Until the evening, suddenly news broke online that the Lei Group had a cash flow disruption, causing its stock price to plumt.
The shareholders of the Lei Group rushed to sell their shares.
And all these shares fell into Helan Qiuzhe’s hands.
Ye Jiuqing wasn’t interested in these and naturally wouldn’t acquire shares, but Helan Qiuzhe, being a businessman, was quite interested in the Lei Group.
Within less than a day, over half of the Lei Group’s shares were in Helan Qiuzhe’s possession.
When Lei ngde received this news, he realized the Lei Group was beyond saving.
Helan Qiuzhe’s goal was clear; he wanted to acquire the Lei Group!
…
At this ti, in HL Group.
In Helan Tianyu’s office.
“Second Young Master, the eldest young master already controls half of the Lei Group’s shares; soon, the Lei Group will fall into the eldest’s hands. Additionally, I heard that people from the eldest’s side will go to negotiate the acquisition today afternoon.”
Zhuo Xiao reported the news to the man in front of him.
The man sitting in front of the desk listened and rely responded with a faint “hmm.”
A lot has happened in the last few days.
Even he found it difficult to digest it all at once.
No matter how he calculated, he didn’t expect his eldest cousin to team up with Ye Jiuqing, who had such deep ties with the Lei Family.
And within just a few days, the Lei Family was uprooted.
This compelled him to reevaluate Ye Jiuqing’s power.
If the two of them really joined forces, his chance to reclaim the Helan Family inheritance would be like hitting a rock with an egg.
This much self-awareness, he did possess.
If he wasn’t careful, he would end up like Lei ngde.
“Second Young Master, shall we continue with our plans given the current situation?” Zhuo Xiao asked.
With the present circumstances, it seed the plan had beco useless.
Helan Tianyu raised a hand to rub his brow.
He said in a deep voice, “No need to continue.”
Zhuo Xiao further asked, “Then, should your marriage to He Miao proceed?”
He Miao was a pawn in the plan; if it’s canceled, He Miao becos unnecessary.
The marriage could naturally be annulled.
Helan Tianyu pondered for a few seconds and said, “Leave it as it is for now; don’t change anything. Continue preparing the wedding.”
Upon hearing this, Zhuo Xiao was slightly surprised.
But he didn’t ask further, obediently responding, “Alright, understood.”
…
Half a month later.
Mrs. Ye was discharged from the hospital, and Ella and Ye Jiuqing took her back to the Ye Residence.
After half a month of recuperation, her health improved significantly; at least, she was gaining so weight and was more energetic.
The Ye Residence was originally Ye Chongtian’s; she lived there when with him.
She found it both familiar and unfamiliar.
So mories played in her mind.
However, the person in those mories was no longer there.
“Mom, this is Mrs. Xu. She manages everything at ho, and there are three other aunties. You’ll gradually get to know them. If we’re not ho and you need anything, you can call on Mrs. Xu for help.” Ella said.
Mrs. Xu stood aside, looked at Mrs. Ye, and respectfully greeted her, “Hello, madam. You can instruct anyti for anything you need.”
Mrs. Ye nodded in her direction and smiled.
Then, she looked at Ye Jiuqing and said, “I’d like to see your father’s study; is that okay?”
Father Ye’s study had been kept intact; Ye Jiuqing hadn’t asked anyone to discard its contents.
“You’re welco to visit anyti. You can freely move around everywhere here without needing my permission, as this is also your ho.”
Ye Jiuqing looked at her and continued, “The room in the middle upstairs was always kept before Father passed away. He told to inform you, if you returned soday, that there is sothing prepared for you inside.”
“…”
Ella stood at the staircase, watching Mrs. Ye climb upstairs.
She said she didn’t need company, so Ella let her go alone.
Turning her head, she looked at Ye Jiuqing and asked, “What did Dad prepare for Mom?”
Ye Jiuqing shook his head, “I don’t know, I haven’t looked inside.”
Mrs. Ye reached the second floor and walked toward the middle room.
She stood at the door, hesitating to push it open.
