Attempting To Change the Heir (5)

Hearing Eric's question, Huang Ying's entire body stilled, and her brain went completely blank.0

Seen Huang Ying's response, Eric continued to ask impatiently, "Ms. Huang, please answer me. Yes or no?"

Huang Ying's head turned from a blank sheet into chaos. She had almost forgotten about the matter until Eric brought it up. After all, it had happened more than twenty years ago. She never heard anything about the child or the child's mother after she bought the child. Things had been quiet all these years. Why was it coming back to her after all this time?

Huang Ying looked away from Eric with alarm, trying to avoid eye contact. "What are you talking about? I don't understand a word of what you're saying."

"You do understand! You know exactly what I am talking about!" Eric stared at Huang Ying with his bright eyes, giving her no chance to escape.

Xu Cheng had no idea what Eric and her mother was talking about. She pulled Eric's arm a bit and said, "What are you talking about? What baby?"

"I don't know what he's talking about! I don't like this man. I won't let you two be together!" With that, Huang Ying stood up from her seat, grabbed Xu Cheng, and turned to leave the café.

Xu Cheng was anxious to know what had happened, and why her mother and Eric's conversation had gone south so inexplicably.

"Mom, what's going on?" Xu Cheng planted her feet, refusing to leave. She had finally met with Eric.

"Are you coming or not? If not, then I'll go by myself!" Seeing that Xu Cheng wouldn't leave, Huang Ying let go of her hand and turned to go.

"A moment please, Ms. Huang!" Eric grabbed Huang Ying as she was about to leave. "Please don't worry. I meant no harm. If I did, I wouldn't be here, having a conversation with you."

Eric held Huang Ying's arm firmly and continued to explain, "I am here to learn more about what happened with the child. This matter affects our future. Please trust me. I mean no harm to you. I want to offer my help."

Huang Ying turned around, trembling. "You want to offer your help? Help with what? I have no idea what you are talking about!"

"Ms. Huang, you know what I am saying. Otherwise, you wouldn't be reacting like this! I contacted you because I already have enough evidence. How else would I have your phone number?" Eric said, lowering his voice. Then he let go of Huang Ying's arm. "You can leave now if you really want to. I won't stop you. However, I can tell you what will happen next; the birth mother of that baby girl will use everything she has to take vengeance on you!"

Huang Ying's body abruptly began to shake. Eric's words had gotten to her. She had thought that her life was already at its lowest point. Her mother-in-law bossed her around like a tyrant, and Xu Cheng was working in Ling Tianya's company. It seemed her entire family relied on others to survive. If someone sought vengeance against her right now, she would be utterly destroyed.

After looking at Eric's completely serious face, Huang Ying took a deep breath and sat back down.

When Huang Ying settled back into her seat, Eric sat back down as well.

Though Xu Cheng had no idea what was going on, she knew from her mother's reaction that it wasn't something simple. Her heart started to pound as well.

"What do you want to know? Ask your questions," Huang Ying said weakly. Her face had grown pale, with no sign of any of the excitement she had felt when she first entered the café.
