Chapter 81 - Dad, I Have A Plan (1/2)

Yue Xiang could still recall Lu Jia ranting about how she was never accepted into the Yue family, even though General Yue was her father by blood. Even if it was in name only, she should have had everything that the Yue's had, but she was entitled to everything.

Until the end, she never disclosed who the original owner of that 50 million dollars was. An enemy in the dark was always harder to defend against than one that was in the light.

Massaging his forehead, Yue Xiang sat down on the sofa and signaled the maid to bring him a glass of water.

Yue Wan and Yue Yeager sat on either side of Yue Xiang with a concerned face. Yue Wan touched her Big Brother's shoulder, then with a light quavering voice reassured him. ”Don't put it inside your heart and deal with it all by yourself. Remember, you have us, you can always tell us what is on your mind. We are a family, and we are stronger together.”

Yue Xiang's lips let out a smile as he grasped his sister's hand and then tightly hugged his two most precious treasures in his embrace.

Yue Yeager ruffled his son's hair just like, how his wife used to do in the past. ”Xiang, I have never doubted your decisions in the past, nor will I do so in the future. So, tell me. What do you want to do?”

Yue Xiang revealed everything that he had found out from Lu Jia, except for what he had learned about his mother.

He vowed in his heart to find the culprit and bring him before his father for justice. Until that happened, he would keep them in the dark about this matter.

Yue Yeager vaguely remembered about the contract. He explained to his two children what he could remember from the document. ”The contract you are talking about was established by your Great-Grandfather to compensate the Li family over a broken engagement in the past. My Father, General Yue, broke a marriage alliance with Li harshly to marry and protect my mother.”

Yue Wan and Yue Xiang looked at him in shock. ”Grandfather broke his marriage arrangement?!”

”Yes, but it won't affect Little Wan if she has a person that she dėsɨrėd to marry. According to the contract, if we met someone and fell in love with them, then the contract would become null until the following generation. That's how my father managed to get out of the arranged marriage, and since I fell in love with your mother, I did not have to go along with the contract either.” Yue Yeager's face radiated like a sun as he elevated chin and held head high in pride.

'Crack...Crack.' Yue Yeager's little heart cracked. Ungrateful brat, she clearly loved him unconditionally.

Yue Wan glanced at her Big Brother in a state of shock and demanded more information.
