In room 208 of the Phoebus Hotel, a handsome man was arranging his suit in front of the mirror. The door to the room opened and closed, and a man who was equally handsome as him but dozens of years older came over.
"Are you ready?" the older man asked.
"I've done what I promised you. I said, even if I marry that woman home, I won't treat her well. You have to think about it carefully." William Renault unhurriedly arranged his clothes and said casually Said.
"As long as you can have children with Helen, I won't care about your other affairs." William Homan looked at his son.
"I said, I'm not interested in that Duke's position. I only agreed because you promised to let me go free as long as you gave birth to an heir. Don't regret it then."
"I keep my word."
"It's the best." At this time, William Renault's hair was still meticulous. If he had an extra pair of glasses, it would obviously be exactly the same as the Renault that Cheng Cheng had a blind date with. "I have never understood why the great elder must wear the Viscount's glasses." Daughter’s marriage.”
William Homan glanced at his son. This son was outstanding. He did not doubt his son's ability at all. If Renault was serious, he would not be much worse than Hill. However, he did not like restraint by nature. He left his side early in the morning and still He concealed his identity and founded Lei's Enterprise. His father did not have much restraint on him. If he could not get permanent freedom, he would not obediently come back and get engaged to Helen.
"You know the Great Elder is an elder with a foreign surname, right?"
"Everyone knows this." Renault frowned.
"Just because he is an elder with a foreign surname, he will always only have the right to assist the William family, but cannot truly control the William family."
"What does this have to do with Helen Charles."
"The Viscountess had already broken Helen when she married Henry Charles."
"You don't mean to tell me that Helen is the daughter of the great elder and the viscountess."
William Homan nodded, and Renault digested this shocking news. This kind of secret has been kept secret for so many years: "So the great elder wants Helen and I to have a son, so that his grandson can naturally become the head of the family. ? And you can join in the trouble with that old guy."
"Is this what you said about your father?" William Homan glared angrily.
"Did I say something wrong?" Renault put on his bow tie and shrugged, "Let's go, the engagement ceremony is about to begin, don't be late and miss your good news."
For this unfilial son William Homan, he simply loved and hated him, but he was helpless. Now that things still depended on him, he had no choice but to swallow his anger in his stomach.
William Renault slowly walked into the hotel. The interior had been decorated. Fresh white roses surrounded every corner of the lobby. He stood quietly at the end of the lobby. His polite smile made him look like a real prince, looking forward to it. holding his princess.
The host announced the start of the ceremony. Henry Charles walked slowly holding Helen's hand. The father and daughter looked harmonious, but the movement of the holding hands did not escape Renault's eyes.
Henry handed Helen's hand to Renault: "Helen will be left to you from now on."
Renault showed a perfect smile: "Don't worry, Father."
Taking Helen's hand, Renault could clearly feel the latter's stiffness. He didn't know what kind of medicine Henry had used to make her come here obediently: "It seems that she is not very satisfied with this engagement ceremony."
Hearing Renault's whispered words, Helen looked up in shock and felt happy in her heart: "So you're not satisfied either?"
"Haha, even if I am not satisfied, I will carry out this ceremony to the end."
"Why?" Helen finally got hope, hoping that she could convince Renault so that everything would be solved.
"Because I can only be truly free if I give birth to a child with Miss Helen, so before you get pregnant, I'm afraid you will have to see me all the time." Renault listened to the host's words intently.
"Have a baby?" Helen didn't expect why Renault would have a baby with her since he didn't like her. "Don't go too far."
"Now Mr. Renault, you can kiss your fiancée and let us witness this moment of love together."
Renault slowly lowered his head, and Helen backed away stiffly. The medicine was still there, and her whole body was stiff and unable to move. She could only try to tilt her head to one side: "You and I are not familiar with each other, so why wouldn't I be willing to sacrifice you in exchange for my freedom. "
Several people who witnessed the event showed happy smiles. At this moment, at the main entrance of the hall, William Hill appeared in front of everyone in formal attire.
"It's too early to be happy now."
When they saw William Hill, everyone present was well-trained and drew their guns as soon as possible. Except for the host who was scared to death, he had already hid in a corner and shivered.
As a large group of people behind William Hill came in, the venue was immediately sealed. The great elder George Green stared at Hill and said: "The young master brought a large number of underworld people here. Could it be that he wants to rebel."
"Rebellion? The Great Elder knows how to catch thieves. What are you thinking in your heart? Do you think no one really knows?" Hill snorted coldly.
"Don't talk nonsense to him and do something." George Green was afraid that he would tell his secret, so he immediately wanted to kill him to silence him. However, when the people around him wanted to take action, the people around Yue Dui also drew their guns and angrily attacked him at the same time.
This kind of firepower would not benefit either end, and compared to Nuo's large supply of firepower, they still suffered a bit. The atmosphere became anxious for a while.
Soothing songs were playing in the room, but Cheng Cheng was a little restless. Yue Yiyi left early in the morning. She knew that they were going to start a fight today, so naturally she couldn't follow because she was pregnant.
Ring ring ring…
Whose phone? Cheng Cheng looked around and found Bai Tianshui's cell phone on the sofa. Seeing that the caller's name was Qingya, he picked up the call suspiciously and heard Qingya's hurried voice on the other side: "White Fox, what's going on?" Unfortunately, the old guy was on guard. All the explosives outside were dismantled, but the compartments on the ceiling and floor were all covered with explosives. The young master must not get into trouble with the old fox, otherwise he might be anxious. Drag everyone to die together."
Explosives? Why is it such a coincidence every time: "Qingya."
Hearing the female voice, Qingya, who was sitting in front of the hotel computer monitor, was also stunned for a moment: "Miss Cheng Cheng."
"Shui's cell phone was forgotten at home during the day."
"Damn it." Qing Ya hung up the phone while cursing, and then hurriedly dialed Xuan Yi's cell phone.
Listening to the busy signal on the other end of the phone and thinking about the explosives, Cheng Cheng couldn't sit still. He picked up the car keys and rushed out of the house.
In the hall, Xuan Yi received a call from Qing Ya and looked very unhappy: "Needless to say, that old guy already has the detonator."
"Everyone, listen, the goal is to rescue Helen, the rest will depend on the situation."
"yes."
After hearing Yue Duyi's instructions, everyone focused their attention on George Green, but the old fox was an old fox after all. He had already seen their plan and grabbed Helen: "Don't come over, let me out now, or I will kill her." .”
"Old guy, a tiger's poison cannot eat its seeds. She is your biological daughter." Renault was still casual, as if he was the only audience, and these guns and ammunition were all like toys.
"What did you say?" Helen thought she heard wrongly, "My biological daughter, what do you mean!"
"That's what it means literally." Renault kindly helped Helen clear up her doubts.
Helen was completely stunned. She looked at Henry blankly and asked cautiously. She expected Henry to give her an answer, but she was so afraid that the answer would make her collapse: "Father, is it true?"
Henry couldn't bear his eyes. He devoted all his love to Helen and her mother. Even if he already knew that Helen was not his biological daughter, he couldn't bear to use her like this. It was just that George held the evidence that he had made mistakes. He didn't. The solution was to look away, he didn't want to look at Helen's frightened eyes.
Seeing that Henry was unwilling to face her, Helen almost knew the answer. She closed her eyes in pain, as if she was unwilling to face all this. This could not be true. Her father, who had loved her for more than twenty years, was not true. Her biological father, and her biological father actually threatened her life. This was ridiculous.
The so-called sadness is nothing more than giving up. Helen had no idea at all, and let George pull her step by step towards the door.
"Little Lord."
Yue Duyi raised his hand to stop Xuan Yi from saying anything. Of course he knew that he couldn't let the old guy run away. He would definitely detonate explosives as soon as he went out, and everyone in the hall would die.
George walked very slowly. He turned his back to the door and stepped back step by step. Just when he was about to step out of the door, Qingya, who had been ambushing on the second floor, suddenly jumped down and kicked the detonator out of his hand immediately.
"unique."
With a loud cry, almost everyone focused on the woman. At the moment when time froze, George took out his gun without thinking.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Time was like a magic, slowing down all movements. Almost at the moment when Bullet left thinking about Cheng Cheng, three men rushed towards her at the same time.
Then, George was shot dead on the spot, but Yue Yiyi and William Hill were not as fast as the person at the other end. The moment he picked up the gun on the ground and threw Cheng Cheng down, he pulled her up again: "Don't move! "
Yue Yiyi and William Hill glared at Renault who was leaving quickly: "What do you want to do?"
Renault smiled: "I don't want to do anything, I hope to use this beautiful lady to accompany me for a while."
Renault threatened Cheng Cheng with a gun and got into the car, then got into the passenger seat and said, "Drive."
Of course, Cheng Cheng recognized Renault. Staring at Renault's gun, she silently turned on the accelerator.
Seeing that his son had smartly chosen to kidnap the woman and run away, William Homan gritted his teeth. As expected, that damn brat would not care about his father.
Seeing Renault's car driving away, Yue Yiyi solemnly ordered to leave the overall situation to Bai Tianshui, and he drove to catch up with Renault.
"Are you William Renaud?"
"Well." Renault pointed his gun at Cheng Cheng, "Are you surprised?"
"Then the parents' urging for marriage and blind dates are all fake?"
"very smart."
Cheng Cheng took a deep breath: "You can't escape."
"Who said I wanted to escape?" Renault smiled weakly. The hand holding the gun finally lost the strength to lift it up again. He lay on the chair and breathed heavily.
Only then did Cheng Cheng realize that something was wrong with him. There was no color on his face. He saw that he was covering his abdomen with blood on his hands: "Are you injured?" Thinking of the thrilling scene just now, everyone thought he was trying to catch her. She thought so, but he actually blocked the gun for her. Cheng Cheng braked and stopped the car on the side of the road. "You need treatment, I will take you to the hospital."
Renault held her hand: "No, it can't be cured."
"How could that happen?" Cheng Cheng panicked, tears welling up in his eyes. "Why? Why do you want to block the gun for me? You are stupid."
Renault's smile became even fainter, and he wiped away her tears with his hands that were not stained with blood: "Maybe I'm stupid, and I didn't want to block it for you. By the time I realized it, my body had already moved. Stop crying, others You thought I was bullying you."
Cheng Cheng couldn't control her tears and shook her head.
"When I first met you, I thought you were very interesting... I kept bragging about myself, but you were immersed in eating. I was thinking that this girl is really cute, so I asked you out again." Renault said very much. Slow and very tired, but when he closed his eyes, he seemed to be recalling the first time he met Cheng Cheng, with a smile on his lips, "I don't know when I fell in love with you, but I fell in love with you because you stepped on me." His feet deliberately took the wrong dance steps."
"I don't think I'll ever forget that girl who stared at her feet and carefully counted her steps before snickering just to step on my feet."
"I'm sorry... I'm really sorry..." Cheng Cheng held Renault's trembling hand and felt his body gradually becoming colder. The blood in his abdomen gurgled out, along with Renault's life.
"Idiot." Renault opened his eyes, "You're not sorry for me, I didn't mean to take you away, but I just hope I can be alone with you for a while, just for a while. That man should be worried."
"Stop talking, let's go back immediately. Bai Tianshui is the best doctor. Without him, we can't save people." Cheng Cheng held on to a glimmer of hope. She didn't want to see this man lose his life because of her. She didn't want to at all. .
"I heard that Nuo's young master is a very good man. You should be very happy if you follow him. That's good. That's good. Ahem, cough, cough..."
"Reno."
"I'm very happy that you remember my name every time... I hope you won't forget it in the future..."
"Okay, I will definitely not forget it." Cheng Cheng cried silently and nodded vigorously.
Seeing that she agreed, Renault smiled with satisfaction. He straightened up with difficulty, and without Cheng Cheng being prepared, he gently touched her lips: "In this way, you will remember me as well... Just Think I’m being greedy.”
The hand that was holding her tightly slipped slowly. Cheng Cheng looked at Renault with wide eyes, and then cautiously called out: "Reynold?"
"Reno!" She shook the man beside her vigorously, but her closed eyes could no longer be opened.
"Reno! Wake up! Woohoo..."
Yue Duyi hurried over and saw the car parked on the roadside from a distance. After being suspicious, she hurriedly got out of the car and saw Cheng Cheng getting out of the car in despair. Her eyes were hollow with tears on her face and her hands were full of blood. She walked towards him. .
"Cheng Cheng." Yue Du called her in a deep voice.
Cheng Cheng seemed to hear someone calling her, but she was not sure. She raised her eyes and looked forward, and her newly dried eyes filled with tears again: "The only one..."
That soft call made Yue Du's heart freeze for a while. He had never seen Cheng Cheng like this before. When he saw her body falling into his arms, Zhu Yan, who stepped forward to investigate the situation, reported in a deep voice: "William Renault is dead." ”
"Go back first." Cheng Chengyue's expression was solemn while holding the unconscious Cheng Yue.
