Chapter 254 It’s Me
Louis clenched the knife and fork in his hands, his face grim. He repeatedly told himself in his heart to be patient. He had been patient for more than ten years and was only one step away.
"Eat, eat. Your uncle doesn't know what you like to eat now. Just pick up the food for yourself. Haha, you've lost weight. You should stay at home and make up for it these few days."
Dare not provoke Ye Lin again,
Louis changes his target to Rebecca, he is still more suitable to play the role of a considerate husband,
"Come on, honey, let me help you cut your steak."
But today Rebecca also went against him,
"No, I've already eaten, you can go do your own thing."
Louis stretched out his hand and stopped awkwardly halfway, chuckled awkwardly, and finally ate his meal obediently.
The long dining table, which could accommodate thirty people at the same time, was shrouded in an eerie silence, with only the occasional sound of cutlery colliding.
After the meal, Ye Lin took Zhao Zhaodi to choose a room.
Ye Lin's room is on the westernmost side of the third floor, and Daniel's bedroom is on the easternmost side.
In an unfamiliar place, human instinct is to stay closer to familiar things. Zhao Zhaodi chose the room next to Ye Lin without thinking.
"Then you can rest first, Auntie. I'll leave Ah Hui to you. You can find him if you need anything."
"Okay, I'm living in the palace now. You can go about your business and don't worry about me."
Zhao Zhaodi knew that Ye Lin had not been back for so long and must have a lot of things to deal with, so she told him to go ahead and get busy.
And she has work to do,
Just now when she was eating, she took a closer look at Ye Lin's bald uncle.
This foreigner is unpleasant to the eye at all. He has a hooked nose, a narrow head, thin eyes and a bitter mouth. Zhao Zhaodi has long wanted to take out her weapon to tell his fortune.
After sending Ye Lin out, Zhao Zhaodi started to tell fortunes in the room.
After asking Ah Hui to take care of his aunt, Ye Lin turned around and went downstairs to find Rebecca. There were too many people in the castle and it was not a good place to talk.
There is a lake behind the castle. The water is so clear that you can vaguely see fish and shrimps swimming in the cracks of the rocks. There are some flower bushes and shrubs planted along the shore. There are not many flowers blooming in this season, but they are also fragrant and pleasant.
But their owners who passed by at this moment were not in the mood to appreciate them.
"What!! You mean sister?"
"Auntie, don't shout."
A budding flower vine suddenly appeared before the furious Rebecca.
Ye Lin shook the flower branch he had picked in his hand, with a smile not visible in his eyes, reminding her to control her emotions.
Rebecca's servants were waiting for them in the distance. Ye Lin was not sure if any of those two people were Louis's spies.
Even a personal maid like Vivian, who could enjoy glory as long as her master was alive, could betray her master.
What's more, an ordinary maid,
Although they had walked some distance now and were blocked by bushes, others should not be able to hear them, but it was still better to be careful.
Rebecca's legs were too weak to support herself, so she could only hold on to Ye Lin and try to calm herself down. Her nails dug into her clenched palms, breaking off two sections of the nail.
Her fists were clenched so tightly that they made a crackling sound. She tried to calm herself down, but it was impossible. All she wanted now was to kill Louis and die with him!
Louis actually killed her nephew and her sister.
How dare he!
The sapphire blue eyes that were originally warm and sparkling now looked like evil spirits crawling out of hell. The whites of the eyes were full of bursting bloodshot, and the blue eyeballs were so crazy that they looked like a dark abyss.
She had lost her mind at this moment and questioned Ye Lin in a panic.
"What are we waiting for? I don't need any evidence, I don't need him tried in court! Damn Italian law, I'm going to kill him! I'm going to kill him with my own hands!"
"How could this happen? How could this happen! Damn it, he is Satan, he is a devil!"
"No, no, I am the devil. I brought him home. I harmed my sister. It's my fault. I shouldn't have brought a devil into the house."
"Auntie, can you hear me, Auntie!"
Rebecca was in extreme grief and anger and fell into self-blame. She kept tearing her hair and hammering her forehead, using self-harm to relieve the pain in her heart.
Ye Lin couldn't wake her up, so he could only hold Rebecca's hands behind her back to prevent her from hurting herself, and angrily said,
"Aunt, wake up! You're going to kill yourself so that Louis can succeed, right?"
Rebecca simply refused to listen to Ye Lin's words. She was obsessed with the issue and thought that she had implicated her family. Ye Lin held her hand and told her to jump into the lake to pay for her sister's life.
"Angel, I have no face to live anymore. I killed my sister and almost killed you. I am the sinner of Fairburn. I let the wolf into the house. It's all my fault."
"I'm going to die. I'm the one who should die!"
Ye Lin was caught off guard and almost let her run away.
He quickly pulled her back and pressed her against the tree.
He didn't expect his aunt to be so difficult to deal with. She wouldn't listen to anything and was only thinking about dying.
The noise they made just now was quite loud. Ye Lin glanced at the servants in the distance through the bushes. Fortunately, they were sitting on the ground playing games.
No one should have seen Rebecca go crazy.
Facing Rebecca again, Ye Lin held her face in his hands, his dark eyes staring directly into her pupils.
"Aunt, listen to me. It's already happened. Mom doesn't blame you, and neither do I. No one blames you."
"Mom is gone. Are we, the living, supposed to let her die in obscurity?"
"We are the only ones who can seek justice for her, Aunt."
Perhaps it was because he returned to the place where he lived with his mother when he was young today, and the scene brought back memories, and Ye Lin's emotions became a little unstable.
At the end of the speech, his voice was a little hoarse, nasal, and with a hint of crying.
The suppressed crying of her nephew gradually brought Rebecca back to her senses. She stopped struggling in Ye Lin's arms, and looked at the lake quietly with empty eyes, like a beautiful doll without a soul. No one knew what she was thinking through the lake.
Seeing Rebecca like this, Ye Lin felt very uncomfortable and began to doubt whether he had done something wrong.
Aunt Rebecca had lived in a happy ivory tower all her life, but today he pulled her down from the tower.
Ye Lin rested his head on Rebecca's shoulder, as if it was the only fulcrum he could rely on.
Leaning close to Rebecca's ear, Ye Lin apologized to her in a trembling voice.
"I'm sorry, aunt. I didn't want to tell you. I originally thought that as long as you were doing well, I could tolerate Louis, and I could also give up the inheritance rights of Fairburn to make Louis feel at ease."
"But I can't make the decision for my mother. I won't let him go again."
"I'm sorry, auntie, I've messed up your life."
