Yet, after what Yue Lanchen had said, how could Charles trust her when all the clues were connected?

He was extremely disappointed. His eyes filled with pain.

“Lanchen, you’re my brother. How could I harm you? Lanchen…” Seeing that Charles did not believe her, Yue Yu tried to turn back to Yue Lanchen.

Yue Lanchen shook his head and said, “You didn’t just treat me like this. When you didn’t know that Shi Jin was my biological sister, you even tried to fake her personal relationship with Dad to let Grandma and Mom see it. But you went for wool and came home shorn. Not only did you fail to achieve your goal, but you also let everyone know that you don’t have the Yue family’s bloodline.”

Yue Yu bit her lip hard.

Yue Lanchen’s last feelings for her faded. There was not much emotion in his voice as he said, “As for Grandma, she was indeed very good to you because she did not like my sister. You relied on her and she protected you. At the very least, you could still live in peace, but your mistake was that you were afraid that she would expose you, so you drugged her early. Now, the only person in the Yue family who is willing to protect you has been personally destroyed by you.”

In her wheelchair, Old Madam Yue had been merely angry and disappointed.

After hearing what Yue Lanchen had to say, she became irritable. She reached out, trying to catch Yue Yu. Most of her actions were meaningless. Even if she caught Yue Yu, what could she do?

However, her anger could only be expressed in this way. She had to do something to vent it!

How ironic that Yue Yu had personally destroyed the only person who might have protected her.

And all of Old Madam Yue’s current situation and encounters were actually caused by her. She had personally replaced Shi Jin and Yue Yu, causing the difference in their fates. She had also pushed herself into a hopeless situation in life.

Old Madam Yue clawed aimlessly. It was her last struggle against despair.

For a moment, no one went forward to look after her.

She finally slowed and leaned against the wheelchair, breathing heavily.

Charles closed his eyes fiercely for a moment and said, “Yue Yu, this is the end of our relationship. Let’s call off the engagement!”

“Charles!” Yue Yu screamed in a high, desperate voice.

Charles left without looking back, striding on.

Madam Yue had many years of feelings for Yue Yu, so these days, although she occasionally had many doubts about what Yue Yu had done, she did not probe further.

Now as she gazed at her daughter, who was so strange that she seemed not to know her, she felt no less surprised and remorseful than the others.

How many things had she done to hurt Yue Lanchen and Shi Jin for this illusory relationship!

Although she did not do anything openly, every bit of love and affection she still had for Yue Yu turned into a knife that stabbed at Yue Lanchen and Shi Jin, making them feel very uncomfortable.

She blamed herself.

Beside her, Shi Jin reached out and gently patted the back of her hand, as if to tell her that she didn’t mind. Humans were emotional animals. It was normal to struggle to accept a change in a relationship that had lasted more than twenty years.

Madam Yue did not feel better after being comforted by her daughter. Instead, she felt even more guilty and her eyes turned red.

Shi Jin did not say anything more, but she knew that her actions would heal Madam Yue’s wounds sooner or later and become her consolation.

“The police have arrived, Old Madam,” said the butler as he entered.

Yue Yu screamed once.

Yue Ling said in a deep voice, “Let them take Yue Yu away for investigation.”

“No!” Yue Yu protested, but where was there any room for her to resist?

Everyone looked at her very coldly. There was no longer any warmth.

Little by little, the warmth and kindness that had been given to her was broken and lost in the memories of the past.

Her selfishness and greed had led to the bitter consequences she now had to accept.

Lu Hui coughed lightly. “Alright, the matter has been resolved. It’s best if there’s nothing else. Tsk, someone else’s child indeed cannot be raised as our own.”

Yue Feng ignored her and said to Yue Ling, “Brother, we’re leaving.”

Old Madam Yue suddenly said weakly, “Shi Jin, is there really nothing you can do about my condition?”

Shi Jin slowly turned back, her gaze cool and emotionless. “A doctor can only heal, not revive.”

Fu Xiuyuan reached for her hand and they walked out together.

Yue Feng, Madam Yue, and Yue Lanchen followed them out.

Seeing Shi Jin get into Fu Xiuyuan’s car, Madam Yue wanted to follow her, but Yue Feng stopped her. “Alright, give them some time alone.”

Madam Yue nodded slightly and turned back to look at Yue Lanchen. “Is your hand alright? Why didn’t you tell us before?”

“It’s already healed. There wasn’t much clear evidence before, and at that time, I didn’t know Yue Yu’s identity. No matter what, I still don’t quite believe that she would do such a thing to me.” Yue Lanchen’s voice was a little low.

Actually, even now, he couldn’t believe it. However, the truth was right in front of them. Being gentle to Yue Yu was cruel to the entire family.

Madam Yue sighed. “I really don’t know why Xiao Yu became like this. How did this happen? Did I not educate her well? Or did I do something…”

“Jingxiu, it’s not your fault.” Yue Feng put a hand on his wife’s shoulder. “The fact that she’s been able to do so many things one by one shows that her nature is already wrong. If she was still concerned about our relationship, she should have stopped after the first sign of it. She wouldn’t have made the same mistakes over and over again. We fulfilled our duty to raise and educate her. We can regret what she’s become, but we definitely don’t need to blame ourselves and feel that it’s all our own fault.”

“That’s right, Mom. You guys already have a clear conscience about what you did. There’s nothing we can do if she wants to go down the wrong path.” Yue Lanchen also comforted his mother.

Madam Yue nodded slightly and could not help but sigh.

Yue Feng said, “Let’s go and visit Old Master Li. There have been many things going on recently, so we haven’t had the time to thank him for taking care of Shi Jin.”

“I’ll come with you,” Yue Lanchen said immediately.

“Get in.” Madam Yue’s mood lightened. She got in the car with her son and hurried toward Taizhou, where Old Master Li was doing food research.

After the Yue family’s farce ended, Yue Ling hired many famous doctors to treat Old Madam Yue and nurse her body, barely stopping her condition from worsening.

She had originally thought that Shi Jin would use her identity as a member of the Yue family to publicize it. However, there was not much news from the outside world.
