Chapter 192 Help
The monsoon ended and Hela returned from her vacation in Goa.
There are fewer foreign tourists in Mumbai, but the foreigners who came here for business last year will still come this year.
Such is the passport business in Hella, there is always a shortage of adventurous travelers coming to Mumbai from all over the world.
"So you still want me to help you arrange the bleaching route this time?" Ron put his arm around her wheat-colored shoulders and stroked them gently.
Well, Hela's originally fair skin has now been tanned to a darker brown than Kaavia's.
“No, it’s not bleaching. That’s not a problem at all.” Hela had a full meal and now felt lazy and didn’t want to move.
"What's that?" Ron sniffed her golden hair.
"Help me save someone."
"Huh?" Ron was stunned for a moment. "Rescue people?"
"There's a girl, my friend, named Ellie. She's in big trouble. Someone tricked her into working as a call girl. She wants to leave, but the lady boss won't let her. I have to get her out."
"Okay, how much will it cost?" Ron asked.
"No, it's not about the money. I have it. But the woman who runs the place has taken a liking to Ellie, and she won't let her go even if we offer her money."
"Wait, that place you are talking about is not the palace, right?" Ron suddenly realized.
“See, you already guessed it.” Hela shrugged.
"I was wondering how your friend ended up in that place. Didn't you tell her how dangerous the palace is for girls?" Ron frowned.
“This was an accident,” Hela sighed.
She explained that Ellie originally came to Mumbai from Switzerland just to relax because she was very unhappy with her family in her country.
Not long after arriving in India, Ellie lost her passport. Longing for freedom, she didn't think much of it until her savings ran low and she began to worry about returning home.
She went to the embassy, but was told it would take several months to complete the necessary paperwork. Unable to wait, Ellie met Hela at Leopold's Bar.
The two got along very well, had a great conversation and became friends.
Hela was about to go to Goa for vacation at that time, and she promised Ellie that she would help her with the passport issue when she returned.
Without a fake passport, Hela said she could get through to the Indian government and quickly connect with the Swiss Embassy.
That's right, Hela wanted Ron's help at the time, and he already had a lot of connections in Mumbai.
She also invited Allie to go on vacation with her, but the latter decided to stay in Mumbai because she was worried about missing the news from the embassy.
In the end, somehow, perhaps because she ran out of money or was deceived, Ellie went to the palace.
"It's my fault," Hela blamed herself. "I shouldn't have left her in Mumbai."
"So the problem now is that Lady Elizabeth won't let her go?" Ron asked.
"I know what that woman is thinking. Money is just an excuse. What she really wants is to destroy Ellie, bit by bit, until there is nothing left. She hates her because Ellie is beautiful, exciting, and brave."
"What do you mean?" Ron was almost confused.
"Ellie comes from Switzerland, from a family with a title. She's rebellious but proud, and won't yield to the demands of the palace. You know, that place demands 100% cooperation from girls, or they'll offend the patrons."
The Royal Palace is different from other red-light districts in Mumbai, as it provides guests with unparalleled service and enjoyment.
If Ellie resisted, it would mess up a lot of things. Sometimes even Lady Elizabeth would be wary of the bigwigs who frequented the palace.
"So Ellie is trapped in there now and can't get out, but Lady Elizabeth doesn't dare to use force?"
"That's about it."
"I don't understand," Ron frowned. "Why does Lady Elizabeth insist on having that girl?"
"Women's jealousy, Ron, is enough to destroy a man's sanity."
Mrs. Elizabeth holds a high status in Bombay's upper class, but this cannot make up for her inner trauma.
She must have suffered a lot in her youth, and the things she experienced were inhumane. The more so, the more likely it is that her character will be distorted.
When she meets a girl like Ellie who grew up in an aristocratic family, she is extremely eager to destroy her with her own hands.
"You want me to rescue her?"
“Not really.”
"I mean, I do have some men." Ron brought a dozen thugs from Uttar Pradesh, and he also hid a few "guitars".
"No, that's too risky. The palace's villains are good at playing tricks on people, like throwing sulfuric acid in her face. More than one girl has been ruined by losing Lady Elizabeth's favor. We can't take that risk. In any case, she has to be willing to spare Ellie and not change her mind at the last minute."
"I don't know that Lady Elizabeth, but I've heard she's dangerous."
"That's right, that's why I asked you for help, Ron."
"You have a plan, I mean how do we rescue that girl?"
"It still depends on you, Ron." Hela looked at him.
"Me?" Ron paused, grabbing Yukiko's hand.
"You are already a big shot in Bombay, enough for Lady Elizabeth to take seriously."
"I think I'm still a little short." Ron's current wealth is far from comparable to that of the giants.
"No, that's enough. I heard that Thackeray would give you some respect."
"Well, that's because of the bombing incident. There was a coincidence involved."
"But you are able to speak now, aren't you? Lady Elizabeth would not dare to confront Thackeray."
"Well, even if it's as you said, it still won't work. You may not know that I had a little friction with Lady Elizabeth."
"Of course I know, but this is where the opportunity lies. Lady Elizabeth will let Ellie go for your sake."
"What do you mean?" Ron's eyes widened slightly.
“She has to compensate you and apologize for her recklessness.” Hela raised the corners of her mouth.
"Oh! Because I've become a big shot, big enough to be on par with her." Ron suddenly realized.
"Yes, that's it!"
Ron is no longer the small fry who could be bullied at will. He has money and fame, and his power is growing rapidly.
No one could touch him easily, and even Khad Khan became more polite to him.
Ron just needs to manage things well for a few more years. It's hard to say who should be careful of whom between him and Lady Elizabeth.
"Are you sure this plan is feasible?"
"I guess that's fine. I can't think of anything better."
"Although I've been to the palace once, I've never dealt with Lady Elizabeth. I mean, if I mess up, will something happen to that girl, or..."
"Ellie is my friend, the idea is mine, and I take responsibility."
"Okay, Elizabeth's favor. I can't imagine it will be useful in the future." Ron shrugged.
He had no business dealings with that lady, and he usually didn't have to go to the palace in person to entertain government officials.
He was too lazy to deal with this kind of person, but if he could help Hela, it would be okay to meet him.
If this favor really exists, why not use it now? What are you waiting for?
"Thank you, Ron!" Hela stood up and took the initiative.
Alas, Ron, the Aquaman, is not getting everything for free.
Look, the people around him have all benefited from him to some extent.
Well, except Urmila, she is so gullible.
Ron and Hela agreed to meet Mrs. Elizabeth in two days, during which time she would arrange Ellie's escape route.
After eating seafood, Ron began to miss millet porridge like Urmila's.
It’s also good to be pure.
Since the release of "Hymn Durga Puja", Urmila has reversed her decline in Bollywood.
Since entering the industry in 1991, he has made several films, most of which have been disasters at the box office, with only one film making a profit.
Even the child star couldn't resist it, and the little girl was almost made to cry.
Fortunately, Ron appeared in time to save her reputation which was about to collapse.
It is true that "Hail to the Mother" is a low-budget movie, but its box office is real.
News has come from Rajasthan and Bihar that the combined first-week box office revenue in these two places has exceeded Rs 1 crore.
Including Uttar Pradesh, the total box office of "Hymn to Durga Puja" has exceeded 30 million, and the revenue has been ten times the investment cost.
It has become a masterpiece in Urmila's acting career, even though it is a low-budget film.
"I've been receiving some weird scripts lately," she complained.
"Not your favorite character?" Ron asked.
"Not at all. Just listen to the names and you'll know. 'Hungry Soul' and 'Burning Body'."
Ron laughed, the name sounded rather frivolous.
"It's all your fault!" Urmila was almost crying. If she was approached by this kind of movie in the future, it would be terrible.
"Don't worry, I've already called Director Dutt," Ron comforted.
“Ha,” Urmila suddenly laughed, “I have received calls from Director Shiromani and Director Ali.”
"That's right, but you dare to tease me." Ron began to punish her severely.
After connecting with old Dutt last time, Ron briefly mentioned Urmila and Manisha.
Old Duterte understood the meaning of the music at once, and this kind of thing was not worth mentioning to him.
Isn't it right to use connections for your woman? It's a waste not to use the existing connections.
Urmila has accepted two films for next year, and Manisha has even started filming.
I haven't had time to visit her recently. Well, I'll go after Hela's matter is over.
Among the women, Ron likes to come to Urmila the most.
It’s nothing, just obedient and tight.
Urmila's skin is very white, not the kind of white that Mary and the others have. Her skin is delicate and gentle.
It is very consistent with the aesthetic taste of Oriental people, and Ron can't put it down.
"I have a movie coming out next month. Can you come to the premiere?" she asked.
"Movie? Didn't you just finish filming Durga?"
"It was filmed at the beginning of the year, with an investment of over 17 million rupees." Urmila was very proud. This was her third film this year.
"Okay, I'll make time for it."
Ding-ling-ling, the phone interrupted Ron.
Urmila signals him to be quiet, this is her apartment.
She picked up the phone, said a few words, and then turned her head away with a strange look.
"Miss Mary is looking for you."
Ron looked calm and confident as he took the phone.
"Ron, I heard you were going to the palace?"
"Uh yeah, how did you know?"
"We have to meet." Mary's tone was firm.
