Chapter: 3415
As she finished speaking, Helen hesitated for a moment before blurting out: "Oh, mom, I saw Faye's cousin today. It seems he can tell just by looking at me that my physical condition isn't good."
"Really?" Helen's mother suddenly became tense and blurted out: "If the Zhangs find out you're seriously ill, they'll definitely back down on their offer to marry you, won't they?"
As she spoke, her eyes welled up with tears, which flowed uncontrollably down her face. She choked out: "Helen, mom really hopes you don't have to come back here again. If you do, they'll try to squeeze every last bit of value and life out of you..."
Helen quickly comforted her mother: "Mom, don't worry too much. Faye's cousin doesn't seem like he'd tell anyone else. I think he won't say anything."
Helen's mother relaxed a little, speaking seriously: "That's good... mom hopes you can live well in China and escape their control, living life more freely..."
Helen couldn't help but feel choked up and nodded repeatedly: "Mom, please take care of your own health, don't worry about me..."
"Okay..." Helen's mother nodded, then remembered something else and said: "Oh, right! Grandma hasn't been feeling well lately. Your uncle says he'll take care of her and your sister and won't be able to attend our wedding ceremony when the time comes. They'll send Wilkins, grandma's caretaker, to represent the royal family."
Helen sighed wryly: "I just agreed to marry into the Zhangs, but they didn't even bother to send an invitation to our engagement party... it's really too much..."
Helen's mother shook her head and said: "It's not their problem, grandma's condition is really quite serious. She's bedridden now, and medical teams have converted her room into an intensive care unit, with multiple doctors and nurses watching over her every day."
Helen quickly asked: "Is it that serious? What exactly is going on?"
"It's very serious," Helen's mother opened her mouth and said: "The specific situation is quite complicated, mainly because she's getting older, and many organs in her body have already reached a state of collapse. I heard that she might only have two or three months left. Lately, your brother-in-law has started secretly preparing for Olivia's coronation ceremony."
Helen nodded lightly, speaking sincerely: "If Olivia inherits the throne, it would be good news for us, at least she will take into account our sisterly bond and show some care towards mom."
"But I wish." Helen's mother forced a bitter smile and said: "Ever since your father passed away, the royal court has no longer treated me as a member of the imperial family. If Olivia inherits the throne, there might not be any change."
Helen hastened to say: "When Olivia inherits the throne, I'll find an opportunity to talk to her, at least restoring the standard of living that father gave us every month. If it's not possible, I'll take you to Hua Xia with me."
"Alright." Helen's mother spoke with deep concern: "You're still not married into the Ye family, everything is still uncertain, so I won't trouble you."
Helen let out a sigh and was about to speak when the doorbell suddenly rang.
She then told her mother: "Mom, someone is ringing the doorbell. I'll go take a look."
"Go ahead." Helen's mother reminded: "Don't worry about me, just pay attention to your own physical condition."
"I know, mom."
As Helen hung up the video and came to the doorway, she observed through the peephole and discovered that the person standing outside was none other than her brother-in-law's aunt, Ye Changming, as well as the Tang family butler, Tang Sihai.
She hastily opened the door, being polite: "Mrs. Ye, Mr. Tang, what brings you here?"
Ye Changming looked at Helen and took a step forward, directly grasping Helen's hand with a warm smile: "Oh, Helen, I heard from Little Fang that your physical condition isn't well, so Grandfather ordered me to rush over and take a look."
As he spoke, Ye Changming's face showed concern as he asked: "Helen, how are you feeling now? Do you need to go to the hospital? If you do, please tell me and I'll arrange it for you."
Helen hurriedly shook her head: "Thank you, Mr. Ye, but my physical condition isn't that bad. It's just that recently I haven't been adjusting well to the time difference, and today I went to the airport again, so I feel a bit fatigued. A rest should be fine."
Ye Changming nodded with a smile: "Yes, yes, this time difference thing is really something. We're all worried about your physical condition if you don't get enough rest for a long time. And you know we'll be hosting the ancestral ritual ceremony soon, which will be extremely demanding. It's not an exaggeration to say it'll take up the whole day when we do." JrNovels.com
