In the video, Lottie's pathetic and sad look, as well as Ralph's pale face, which was even paler than a wall, burned the eyes of the three old men.
Jerryl and Yuki, who were still making fun of each other, stopped talking.
Aiden frowned.
After a moment of silence, Aiden's cell phone rang. It was Alfred.
"Uncle."
As soon as the phone was connected, Alfred sighed.
"I know you have a hard time abroad, but... I think I have to let you know."
"Ian didn't allow me to tell you the truth about Ralph, and he didn't want you to know what kind of predicament Lottie was in..."
"But I think you still know something."
"Ralph doesn't have much time left."
"Lottie is thinking of a way to wake him up."
"Hank said that if Jenny were to personally come to Ralph and make everything clear, Ralph would truly believe that he hadn't done anything that he shouldn't have done, he may woke up."
"But Jenny had already committed suicide by jumping off the building yesterday. The only method that can make Ralph hear Jenny saying those words... is using the recording by Lottie."
"But that record was taken away by Yara."
"The condition Yara proposed is, first, let Lottie's friend divorce and give up her career."
"Second... she wants Ian to occupy all Ralph's assets."
Alfred finished his words in one breath.
"I know. We are all adults. There are some things that should be solved by ourselves. Don't bother you elders."
"But now, it's a matter of life and death..."
"I really can't keep it a secret anymore."
"Uncle, if you still acknowledge Ralph as your son, I hope he can survive..."
"I think this matter can only be solved by you, to look for Ian."
Alfred's words silenced the living room of the Bartons's villa.
Aiden took a deep breath and looked at Yuki and Jerryl behind him.
"What do you think?"
Yuki's lips curled into a smile. She was no longer as friendly to Aiden as before. There was a hint of coldness on her lips. "So, our son-in-law, Ralph, is about to die. You and your eldest son have been hiding this from me, right?"
Jerryl's eyes were also cold.
"Aiden, I don't care what the inside of the Bartons wants to do, but Ralph is our son-in-law. And over the years, he has made money for Chapman Group and his own assets of the DS Group step by step."
"If you and your eldest son Ian want to take away what belongs to him, our Bells will not allow it!"
Yuki also nodded. "If you protect Ian, we must protect our son-in-law."
"If we take action at that time, don't blame us for being cruel."
Aiden silently rubbed his aching mid-brows.
He had seen how cruel Yuki was.
After all...
A mother would love her own child.
However, in order to prevent Jenna Kennedy from threatening her with Lottie, Yuki had cut off their kinship and let Lottie live with Arthur Bell more than 20 years!
She had been fighting with a crazy woman like Jenna Kennedy for more than 20 years. Jenna Kennedy was a pervert, and Yuki was not a good person!
If they really forced Yuki to do it herself...
Aiden shivered and quickly took out his mobile phone to call the housekeeper.
"Now, immediately, immediately come here!"
"If you hadn't find a job in a management company to treat me, how could you have become the movie queen, Natalia?"
"From this point of view... you should thank me."
She winked at Natalia and said,
"Do you agree?"
Natalia's hands clenched into fists.
She curled her lips and looked at Yara's face with a fake smile. "Yes."
"It's all thanks to you that I could have everything that happened later."
"So if you want to destroy me now, didn't I refuse?"
Her words finally made Yara laugh with satisfaction.
"Natalia, you should have known that you are not as good as me."
"Fate is unfair. It allows you to have a happy family, all of your parents and younger brother loved you, but I have nothing."
"But fate is fair. Although I don't have relatives, I have Kayden and Ian, and I am going to get a lot of Ralph's assets..."
After that, she smiled.
"You came to see me today because of Lottie, didn't you?"
"No problem. As long as you divorce Kayden, and then announce in public that you will quit the entertainment circle, I will consider returning the recording to Lottie."
Natalia bit her lip and stared at Yara.
"I want you to give me an accurate answer. If I do that, will you give it to me or not?"
"If it's just a matter of consideration, I won't do it."
Yara raised her eyebrows.
She didn't expect that the fool Natalia had become smart.
