Chapter 974: He Would Take Care of He Xiyan for Her
Ye Yi could tell that the woman beside him was terrified.
He took her slender hands in his and said, “Don’t be so worried Han Xue. You weren’t involved in this at all and even if the police investigate this case, they wouldn’t be able to trace it to you. Don’t worry, I wouldn’t let the mother of my child be in danger.”
Ye Yi sounded very calm and there was no trace of fear or anxiety in his eyes. This was not the first time he did such a thing. He had dabbled in both legal and illegal activities, so he didn’t even bat an eyelid at the thought of murder.
“I...” Han Xue stuttered. She felt as though she wasn’t able to speak.
Ye Yi added, “Take good care of my brother and make sure that he dotes on you and Xiao Yu. If Xiao Yu becomes his successor, I will make sure that you get the rewards you deserve.”
Han Xue bit her lip and her heart raced so quickly that it felt like it was about to burst out of her chest. She couldn’t believe how quickly things spiraled out of her control. All she wanted was to marry into the Ye family and be by Ye Hao’s side. Ye Hao didn’t touch her that night so she couldn’t fall pregnant and this was when she reached out to Ye Yi. She thought that her secret would be safe since Xiao Yu was truly the first grandson of the Ye family but she didn’t expect Ye Yi to be so terrifying and cruel. Now that she had been dragged into this, there was no way out for her, so she was forced to carry on this dark path.
“Ye Yi, frankly, I don’t think that Ye Hao would hand over all his assets to Xiao Yu. We’ve done so much but I’m afraid that we wouldn’t be able to get anything out of it in the end,” she said with a bitter smile.
Xiao Yu’s true identity aside, she knew that she couldn’t stay married to Ye Hao for long.
“Is it because He Xiyan had returned to life?” Ye Yi puffed on his cigar and blew out a plume of white smoke.
“Yes, don’t you know she’s all your brother can think about? He even brought up getting a divorce recently but I refused to divorce him,” she said solemnly. She was extremely annoyed and felt helpless each time she remembered that Ye Hao only had eyes for He Xiyan.
Ye Yi cackled strangely.
“Don’t worry, I’ll take care of He Xiyan for you,” he said.
Han Xue froze and she suddenly had an ominous feeling when he used the words ‘take care’.
“Are you going to murder her?” she couldn’t help but ask. Then, she immediately shook her head and grabbed Ye Yi’s hand. “No, Ye Yi, you can’t kill her. If she disappears for a second time, the police will definitely suspect me because I clearly have a motive for murder. Moreover, her sister is dating Su Ye so Su Ye will definitely pursue this matter until the very end. We can’t get rid of her. If we do, we’d be digging our own graves,” she said anxiously.
Although Han Xue hated He Xiyan, she was still able to think clearly in spite of her terror. She didn’t want He Xiyan to intrude on her family and her marriage but she was even more afraid of her own safety.
“Of course I wouldn’t kill her,” Ye Yi said as he breathed out another plume of air. He said calmly, “Don’t worry, I’ll just make sure that my brother will not choose to be with this woman.”
Then, he stubbed his cigar in the ashtray.
“What do you intend to do?” Han Xue asked. She was curious but also a little fearful.
Ye Yi waved her question off and didn’t tell Han Xue how he intended to let his brother give up on his ex-wife on his own accord.
He gently patted her shoulder and said, “Bring Xiao Yu back in. I’ll get my men to send you back to the harbor.”
