Chapter 1167: Attempting To Change The Heir (11)
Eric’s words brought even more fear into Huang Ying. She had lost all power to think and had no idea what she should do.
Lina was already extremely terrified, as has Eric described, what if the Ruan family joined in? She had no chance of living then.
Also, it would not just be the two of them. The Ling family might join forces as well. Though Huang Ying was not familiar with the Ling family, she heard Eric mention that Ling Tao was the president of the Ling Corporation. They must be a rich and influential family as well.
If these three families joined together, getting revenge on a poor woman in her dark days was the same as asking her to drop dead.
Seeing that his words had taken effect on Huang Ying, as Huang Ying’s mind and spirit were completely broken down, Eric decided that it was time for him to speak his true intention.
“Ms. Huang, I can help you. The reason I set up this meeting with you is to help you,” Eric said as if he were speaking from the heart.
Hearing that, Huang Ying turned to Eric immediately as if he was her ray of hope. “How can you help me? You must help me!” she exclaimed.
“Please, worry no more.” Eric nodded. “Even for Xu Cheng’s sake, I will help you.”
At this moment, the sweet love won over everything in Xu Cheng’s heart. She had no panic or anxiety in her heart, like Huang Ying did.
“Eric, say it already: how will you help my mom?” Xu Cheng said in an unnaturally sweet tone.
As a matter of fact, Eric hated this simple-minded, pretentious woman—Xu Cheng—deep within. It was just that they were still of no use to him.
Eric suppressed his objection towards Xu Cheng and said to Huang Ying, “If you do not wish to be a target to them, Lina must not know that Ling Tianya is her real daughter.”
Huang Ying nodded in agreement. “But, even you found out about me so easily, so how can we keep it from her?”
Eric looked at Huang Ying to calm her down. “Now, only the three of us, your brother in City H, and the private detective know the truth. Even the human trafficker only knows about you but has no idea that you sold the baby to Yu Meizi.”
“Right! Right! That is true!” Huang Ying’s eyes widened.
“For a secret to remain a secret forever, one must silence the ones who know the secret. Now, the private detective has been silenced forever. So, the only ones who know about this are us three and your brother.”
Huang Ying and Xu Cheng were stunned. So, Eric was saying that he had that a private detective killed?
Noticing the fear in the eyes of the two women, Eric put on a gentle face. “You have no need to be afraid of me. I did what I did for the love of my life, Miss Xu Cheng.”
Xu Cheng was terrified. However, once she heard Eric put it like that, the fear in her vanished immediately.
“Mom, I think Eric did the right thing. He did what he did for us.” Even though Xu Cheng was still somewhat unsure, the power of love was stronger than anything right now.
Huang Ying nodded. Though she was in fear, she must admit that dead men tell no tales.
With that thought in her head, Huang Ying widened her eyes again and said, “Are you going to kill me, too, brother?”
Eric shook his head and said, “Why would I kill the brother of Ms. Huang Ying? Also, he cannot die. He plays an important role in the plan we are going to carry out next.”
