Chapter 1453: Chapter 1453: Ending Part One
"Mommy, please don’t cry. This is what I’m willing to do," Ye Yuan said, helplessly wiping the tears from the corner of her eyes.
"Silly child."
Ye Lu’s hands trembled as she gently kissed his little face.
She held her two children tightly in her arms.
Separated by blood, the bond of seven years spent together—thinking about the countless days they shared—it felt like a knife piercing her heart. How could she bear to part with her children?
But for their future peace and happiness, free from control...
She was willing.
Then she forced a smile: "Come on, Mommy will make dinner for you—a big, hearty meal for tonight."
The dinner that night was lavish. Ye Lu pulled herself together, making the atmosphere lighthearted and natural, as if everything had returned to the way it once was. The evening was filled with laughter.
That night, the three of them—mother and children—slept together on the large bed.
She told her two beloved children a bedtime fairy tale, her soothing voice lulling them into sleep. Then, lying quietly beside them, she gazed at their adorable sleeping faces, watching them the entire night.
No matter how much she looked, it never felt like enough!
When dawn broke, her face was streaked with tears.
She quietly got up, kneeling down tenderly, planting gentle kisses on their little cheeks.
"My Yuanyuan, my Yiyi..." Her sorrowful voice broke into sobs. "Mommy will love you forever."
After saying this, she dared not linger and left silently.
...
The next day, Ye Lu appeared at the Hua Group, entering the office that Hua Linqi once used.
It was Hua Linqi’s personal office, sealed off even after his death.
As the heir, Ye Lu held the authority to open it.
She stepped into the office and, guided by the confidential information she saw in the bank vault about the Godfather’s hidden secrets, reached for a painting on the wall.
After flipping it over, there seemed to be nothing unusual. Ye Lu broke the painting frame, uncovering a stack of old papers hidden within the layers.
Nervously and urgently, Ye Lu clutched the papers, examining each sheet meticulously. As she stared at the words and photographs on them, her expression shook with intensity, her gaze sharp, emitting piercing coldness.
Perfect. As expected, these were indeed the evidence collected by her father against the Godfather!
Ye Lu clenched her fists, her entire body emanating a murderous aura. Once this evidence was made public, the Godfather’s identity and crimes would be exposed with nowhere to hide.
Although a part of her wished to expose it immediately, she maintained her rationality and quickly calmed herself.
She swiftly organized the documents and placed them in a sealed black file box.
Then, she sat in Hua Linqi’s office chair, her face solemn. She picked up a pen and paper and began writing calmly and methodically.
She wrote several letters—to Huffman, to Hua Lunxi, and to the Third Young Master Jun, as well as to her children.
She explained everything clearly, including her will!
When she finished, she exhaled deeply. Though filled with reluctance, she held no regrets.
Then, using the internal line, she called Huffman to her office.
She handed him the black file box, instructing him to secretly deliver the documents to Congress in three days and to send the letters afterward.
Though Huffman didn’t understand what she planned to do, he solemnly promised to carry out her requests because he admired this woman deeply.
As Ye Lu prepared to leave.
"Are you heading somewhere?" Huffman asked.
Ye Lu turned back and flashed a confident, radiant smile.
"I’m going to do what must be done!"
...
Her final stop was at Dr. K’s secret medical facility.
She held her two babies tightly in her arms, feeding them one last time. She lowered her head and kissed them tearfully.
From then on, they would grow up without their mother.
Of all the people she had wronged, it was these twins she felt the most guilt toward—they would lose their mother so soon after being born.
"Babies, you must grow up healthy and strong. In the future, listen to your father, your older brother, and sister. Mommy will always be watching over you!"
She wiped away her tears, walked out of the room, and gently closed the door behind her.
Calming her emotions, she picked up the phone and dialed the Godfather.
ps: The story is finally coming to an end. Once the confrontation with the Godfather concludes, this novel will be complete! After building up the tragic atmosphere for so long, I feel that an ending with some regrets is more beautiful. While a happy ending is possible, blending it with a touch of imperfection seems even better. Do you all agree?
