Chapter 324: Chapter 322: Get Married Now!
Mr. Boris was deep in thought.
The disease was Golden-Niece Syndrome.
Golden-Niece Syndrome was indeed rare, with only a handful of patients worldwide, not exceeding four figures.
And the Royal Family of A Country was unfortunately one of the families afflicted by this disease.
Lady Lan, that is, Huo Zhenyang’s biological mother and his cousin with Asian blood, had also died because of Golden-Niece Syndrome.
Zhenyang’s nosebleed earlier had been all too similar to one of the symptoms of this disease.
Mr. Boris’s gaze grew a few shades dimmer.
Although Zhenyang’s recent actions had angered him, if Zhenyang truly had inherited this hereditary illness, it was not something Mr. Boris wanted to see.
However... if Zhenyang really did show early signs of the disease, then they could only use this opportunity to bring him back to China.
"Just get it done!" Mr. Boris made up his mind and swept his hand in a decisive gesture.
——
In the evening.
His assistant hurried back and handed a slip of paper to Mr. Boris.
Indeed, Huo Zhenyang had started taking medicine before coming to S Country and had not stopped since arriving.
Mr. Boris recognized the components of the medicine listed on the paper at a glance.
As a member of the same family, he was all too familiar with what these medicinal ingredients represented.
It was an initial treatment used to suppress the early signs of Golden-Niece Syndrome.
Mr. Boris took a deep breath.
He had not expected that the ticking time bomb in his nephew’s body had also begun showing signs of eruption.
The silver lining was that it had been discovered early enough to be controlled with medication.
Back then, Lady Lan had died at a young age because she found out too late, coupled with her innate physical frailty, as well as the heavy physical depletion after childbirth.
This disease was most averse to stimulation; any emotional fluctuation could lead to a nosebleed or fever.
During the day, Mr. Boris’s actions had agitated Huo Zhenyang, which was why he had had a nosebleed on the spot.
Mr. Boris stayed silent for a good while as the daylight faded.
There was a knock on the door.
From outside, George’s voice came in, "Mr. Boris, Huo has arranged the car for you, and the plane back home is in an hour. Please be reminded to pack your luggage."
The assistant frowned and muttered softly, "Is there really a need to rush like this?"
Mr. Boris’s eyes grew darker, and with a wave of his hand indicating not to complain, he raised his voice, "Alright, we’ll head to the airport immediately."
George left.
The assistant was surprised, "Mr. Boris, are we really just leaving like this?"
Mr. Boris sighed, his staying wouldn’t be of much use, he feared.
But at this moment, there was someone who would certainly take his place, using every means possible to bring him back to China.
If Zhenyang really had started showing early signs of the disease, that person might not yet know.
Yes, that person definitely didn’t know yet.
Otherwise, how could he possibly watch his most beloved eldest son neglect his condition overseas?
You see, with this disease, the timing of treatment is precious, and if it’s surgically eradicated in its early stages, there will be no issue.
If it’s delayed, it will end up like Lady Lan—
At this thought, Mr. Boris walked over to the desk, picked up his mobile phone, and dialed an overseas call.
Several seconds later, he spoke politely into the phone, "Mr. Huo, hello."
——*——
The news of Mr. Boris being sent away from S Country by Young Master Huo caused an uproar in the Chu Family.
Afternoon.
When Chu Yanhan was called to Ya Qianhuai’s study by the butler Pei, he almost could guess what Ya Qianhuai was about to say.
Indeed.
It didn’t take many words before Ya Qianhuai began, "Yanhan, you have seen the recent events. Young Master Huo lingers in S Country, even treating Boris’s words as nothing. I really didn’t expect your daughter to be so capable!"
The last sentence was clearly thick with irony.
As the head of the Royal Family, from the moment Young Master Huo showed up at the engagement party, Ya Qianhuai never wanted Ya Chen and Miss Chu to get married.
A girl with such a special past clearly no longer qualified to be a daughter-in-law of the Ya Family.
But as a father accommodating his only son, Ya Qianhuai could not refuse Ya Chen.
He owed his son too much, he couldn’t even provide a normal body, and now it was just a woman; he wanted to satisfy Ya Chen as much as possible.
Ya Qianhuai saw very clearly the feelings Ya Chen had for Miss Chu.
Ya Chen had never been with a woman before; for him, Miss Chu was his first love, and hence he was very persistent about it.
An accidental fall into the water years ago resulted in several years of Ya Chen’s concern, it must be fate!
However, now that Young Master Huo was completely unyielding, and Ya Qianhuai didn’t want to sour relations with the upper echelons of A Country because of this, he could only ask Chu Yanhan to come over to discuss the matter today.
If it really didn’t work out, they would have to give up on the marriage alliance between the Chu and Ya families.
After pondering for several seconds and seeing that Ya Qianhuai was considering giving up, Chu Yanhan, clenching his teeth, said resolutely,
"Just let the two of them get married, start the wedding now! Young Master Huo is delaying his departure from Nanga, simply because he is relying on our deference to his identity as A Country’s royal kin. He won’t hold the wedding for now. But even if we go ahead with the wedding, what could he do? We live in a society governed by law! Can he steal a marriage? Can he abduct a bride? I believe Young Master Huo wouldn’t be that reckless."
Go through with the wedding directly?
Ya Qianhuai was taken aback.
From the very beginning, they had only thought about how to persuade Young Master Huo to return to China.
If that was not possible, then just let Ya Chen and Jiayi get married straight away. Perhaps... this could indeed make Young Master Huo back off.
Without thinking for too long, Ya Qianhuai declared firmly, "Good."
After discussing with the Chu family, the wedding preparations quickly proceeded.
The wedding ceremonies of the modern Royal Family members of S Country had been simplified, neat and decisive, similar to most ordinary couples.
Typically, the couple would have a Western wedding at St. Jose Cathedral in Capital Nanga. As the first family, the palace would send a press release to domestic mainstream media two days in advance, announcing the news of the wedding, and then officially declare it to all sectors of society on the day of the wedding.
The wedding would be conducted by a priest, with family members attending and a number of media invited.
The stir among the castle’s servants as they prepared for the wedding had already alerted Jiayi.
Even if she were slow to catch on, the actions of the servants, congratulating her every time they saw her, made it clear to her that the wedding was imminent.
She had not expected it to be so soon, but without locating her mommy, she could only accept Xuan Yu’s manipulation.
Moreover, more importantly, subconsciously, Jiayi knew that man would not stand by in S Country and watch her marry Ya Chen.
Thinking this, her mood was surprisingly calm; she did not panic too much.
——*——
S Country’s night sky was dense, like ink that would not dissolve.
There were no stars tonight, the moon’s pale light dimmed, and thick clouds hung heavy, as if a storm was about to break out over the city at any minute.
The propellers of a private helicopter whirred in mid-air before finally coming to a halt on the runway of S Country’s private airport, slowing down.
Several black Lamborghinis were parked beside the runway, ready to welcome the arrival of those from the plane, their polished black steel gleaming with a dark allure under the moonlight.
