Chapter: 3618

After the queen publicly announced that she would pass on the throne to Helena, Ye Chen had already begun to think about returning.

This time he came to Northern Europe with the sole purpose of helping Helena ascend to the throne. Now that this goal has been achieved, in addition to the five billion euros in cash, he will also receive, which far exceeds his original expectations.

So, he felt that there was no need for him to stay in Northern Europe any longer and decided to return to Huaxia overnight.

However, Helena was currently accompanying her mother in the hospital room because when they saw each other, her mother's emotions became overly excited and she cried uncontrollably several times, causing the royal doctor to immediately take her to the hospital for a detailed examination.

After the examination, the doctor confirmed Helena's mother's physical condition, except that it was also serious. In addition to poor nutrition, there were signs of severe nervous breakdowns.

According to the doctor's speculation, the main reason for this nervous breakdown is the excessive worry and fear these days.

Helena's mother had always been worried about her daughter's situation, and after being imprisoned by Olivia, she became even more anxious about not being able to see her daughter again in the future, which took a toll on her mental health.

Ye Chen decided to leave after that and told the queen: "Since everything has been resolved, I won't stay in Northern Europe anymore. Please, Queen, take good care of William and Olivia, and I'll arrange someone to pick them up tomorrow."

The queen hastily persuaded him: "Mr. Ye, it's already late at night. Why not rest for a night in the palace and leave tomorrow?"

Ye Chen waved his hand dismissively: "I can rest on my way back. I won't waste time here. There are still many things waiting to be handled in Huaxia."

The queen looked regretful and said: "Mr. Ye, actually, I wanted you to stay a few more days in the palace, so you could attend Helena's coronation ceremony when it comes time. I believe she would also be very excited for you to witness her ascension to the throne..."

Ye Chen smiled slightly and said: "I'm just an outsider, I won't participate in your royal coronation ceremony. Besides, as a Chinese face, if I appear at the Northern European royal coronation ceremony, it will create unnecessary speculation and attract unwanted attention, which is not ideal."

The queen saw that Ye Chen's mind was made up and could only respectfully say: "Since Mr. Ye has already decided, I won't force him to stay. I'll arrange for a palace car to escort him to the airport."

Ye Chen nodded slightly and said: "That's okay, then."

The queen quickly called over the head of the royal guard and instructed: "Hurry up and get the carriage ready, and also go tell Princess Helena that Mr. Ye wants to leave, let her come to see him off as soon as possible."

Ye Chen didn't want to disturb Helena from spending time with her mother, but since he was leaving anyway, it wouldn't be too much trouble to say hello in person, so he didn't speak up.

Soon, Helena walked in quickly, accompanied by a pale-faced woman, and upon seeing Ye Chen, she exclaimed: "Mr. Ye... why are you leaving so soon? You've only just arrived in Northern Europe, at least take some rest before leaving again..."

Ye Chen smiled slightly: "You've already seen what's going on with Ye Ling Mountain, and there's still much to be settled."

Helena thought about this and considered that not only the tens of thousands of troops gathered around the Wanlong Palace, but also the various branches of the Ye family might have rushed back by now, thinking that Ye Chen would return to take charge.

Thinking about this, she felt a mix of reluctance and resignation, but could only say softly: "Mr. Ye has many affairs to attend to; I won't detain you further..."

Having said so, Helena quickly grabbed the arm of the woman beside her and told Ye Chen: "My mother is very grateful to you, Mr. Ye. When she heard that you were leaving, she insisted on coming to thank you personally..."

At this moment, the woman accompanying Helena, with a respectful bow, thanked Ye Chen deeply: "Thank you, Mr. Ye, for saving my life and giving me an opportunity to inherit the throne..."

If it weren't for Ye Chen, the Empress would never consider giving up her throne and passing it on to Helena even if she were about to die.

When the Empress heard this, though there was a slight discontent in her mind, she was also very clear that she would soon be handing over all her power, from now on, her life goal is not to pursue something like securing the throne or wielding imperial authority, but to genuinely live for several more years.

So, she quickly put aside her discontent and only thought of Ye Chen's miraculous Eastern secret medicine in her heart. JrNovels.com
