Chapter 607: Like An Outsider
Little w.a.n.g looked very sorry and innocent. Although the woman in front of him was still the hostess of the castle, yet he knew very well that the owner of the castle was Mr. Ye. The house was Mr. Ye’s, and they were paid by Mr. Ye.
He knew exactly who to listen to at this critical moment. Besides, Mr. and Mrs. Ye had been in conflicts recently. So it was hard to say whether Miss He would be the hostess of the castle in the future.
He Xiyan was stunned there, her hands holding the steering wheel tightly. She bit her lips so hard that even a trace of b.l.o.o.d.y taste came out.
After a while, she hit the steering wheel with one hand, an inexplicable anger pa.s.sing through her eyes.
She turned to look at the guard standing beside the car, as if trying to suppress the rage to the utmost.
However, she did not curse him or make things difficult for him. It was only at this time that she indeed realized that she was nothing in this castle. Everything here did not belong to her. She did not have the property of this house or even the right to speak.
She was here though, like an outsider.
If Ye Hao called and asked her to leave, she thought, these servants would throw her out immediately.
Thinking of such result, He Xiyan only felt cold in her heart. Anger faded from her face, and freezing sadness was cold to the bone.
She drove back to the bas.e.m.e.nt and did not try to leave the house. In fact, she simply wanted to go to Qin Garden to bring her daughter back. She wanted to see her child, that was all.
At this time, butler Lu came over.
He wore a shallow smile, but no one knew what he was smiling for. He seemed to be laughing at the woman in front of him, but there was not much emotion in his words.
He stood in front of He Xiyan and said lightly, “Madam, sir has just called, saying that you should think about it at home and that you should eat on time. By the way, Mr. Ye also says that he will stay in Qin Garden these days to accompany the old Mr. Ye and Mrs. Ye. He will come back next week. He says that he will give you time to make a decision. As for what the decision is, he does not say.”
After that, butler Lu stood aside actively and looked at He Xiyan with doubts, as if he wanted to see something from her face.
He Xiyan nodded and said, “I know.” She then turned around and went upstairs. No one saw the tears flowing out of her eyes at this moment.
Several servants downstairs were standing in a circle, whispering, their voice as low as mosquitoes’.
“Sir and Madam will divorce this time, won’t they? Sir does not allow madam to leave the castle, probably waiting for her signature on the agreement.”
A servant whispered.
“Yes, you see, the little princess has also been sent to Qin Garden. Perhaps they are afraid that madam will use the little princess as chips.” Another one echoed so.
“In my opinion, madam actually deserves it. She is a woman who has married once with a bad family background. She even gives birth to a son for her ex-husband. With such conditions, Mr. Ye should be willing to marry her rather than despise her. She, however, instead of cheris.h.i.+ng this, is still in contact with her ex-husband. Such a woman, who does not cherish happiness while living in it, is not qualified to be the hostess of the castle at all.” It is w.a.n.g Lan who said so. She pursed her lips in disdain and sneered coldly, as if she had long expected such an outcome.
These servants said one after another. At the beginning of the new year, they didn’t have much to do, so they gossiped secretly every day to kill the extra time.
