Chapter 409: Unexpected Birth
Hearing Lu Ling's voice, Lu Ran stopped going upstairs and sat back in the living room.
"When? I know, I'll be back in two days. Lu Ling chatted with the other side and hung up the phone in a hurry.
"What's wrong?"
"Eli just called and said that Charles had been assassinated and was dying."
"How could it be so sudden?" Lu Ran was surprised.
"I don't know, Charles has always been cautious, I'm afraid it won't be easy to be assassinated this time, I may need to go back to country A early." Lu Ling looked at Lu Ran and said with some reluctance.
"Originally, I wanted you to stay here for two more days, but now that things abroad are important, you don't have to worry about here, and me." Lu Ran said.
After handing over the affairs of the domestic organization with Lu Ran, Lu Ling immediately rushed back to country A.
Eli couldn't leave, so he sent his henchmen to pick him up.
When they arrive at the Will family, Luling finds Eli guarding Charles' Villa.
"What the hell is going on? How could something happen to Charles out of the blue? Haven't his whereabouts been kept secret all along? Lu Ling asked, looking at Eli.
Eli was much more emaciated than she had left and even had fine stubble on her face.
But this did not detract from his handsomeness, but instead showed that he was becoming more and more mature and tasteful.
Eli rubbed his temples that were a little sore, "It was originally a secret, but I don't know why there was an accident this time, I suspect that there is an internal ghost, and it is still under investigation." ”
Lu Ling was surprised.
"What's the situation like now?"
"As soon as my father had an accident, some small families began to come alive, and after I suppressed the two families strongly, they stopped a lot." Eli said this, but his expression still couldn't hide his worry.
Lu Ling understood his worries, and the current peace was only temporary.
There are a bunch of imps with difficult births below, and there is also Mu Sen, the great king of Yama, next to him, peace is just a façade, and at this time, Charles's accident is likely to break this peaceful pebble.
"How's Uncle doing?" Lu Ling asked.
"Still in a coma, the doctor said the situation was not very optimistic." Eli shook her head.
As he was talking, someone from the Will family came to report on his work.
Eli let people in, then listened to the debriefing and gave his advice, as if he were a member of the family.
Charles has reused Eli many times before, and has asked him to handle some things for himself many times, so now he can't be in charge, and the people below are also used to dealing with Eli.
Seeing Eli dealing with the affairs of the family, Lu Ling said hello to him and went upstairs to see Charles.
The person on the hospital bed was on a ventilator, and it was difficult for Lu Ling to associate this person with the powerful Charles before, at this moment his sideburns were almost completely white, and the whole person looked haggard, and most of his originally ruddy face had been sunken.
Lu Ling sighed with emotion that creation makes people.
Sensing someone watching her as she went out, she looked up and glanced around the third floor to see something sliding down the hallway.
Lu Ling's eyes narrowed slightly, if she was not mistaken, it should be Taylor's wheelchair.
Taylor seems to be very peaceful lately, but what is hidden under this security is elusive.
When Lu Ling went downstairs again, she saw that only Eli was left in the living room.
"I didn't have time to ask you how things are going in China? Is Uncle okay? Did he say anything when you came back this time? ”
"The domestic affairs have been dealt with almost completely, my father's body is recovering quickly, and many things can be handled, so I can come back so quickly."
Eli looked at Lu Ling tightly and took her hand on the sofa, "Thank you for your hard work." ”
"It's not hard, what do you want to do next." Lu Ling quietly withdrew her hand.
"Now my father is in poor health, and I will take care of the affairs of the clan, and my eldest brother is not in a good state now, and his mind is gloomy and temporarily unsuitable for work, so I want you to come over and assist me." Eli finished speaking and looked at Lu Ling.
There are too many things going on now, of course he can't do it alone, but he has to trouble her again.
"Of course I'm willing, I'm afraid that some people in the family will disagree." Lu Ling's face was a little embarrassed.
"What are you afraid of, you are still my fiancée, they don't dare to gossip, but it will be hard for you to do so."
"It should." Lu Ling said with a smile.
Lu Ling quickly put herself into work after she returned, and with her joining, Eli's work went much better.
The Will family's chaotic state since Charles was in a coma has finally been effectively controlled.
A kingdom cannot be without a king, and a family cannot be without a ruler for a day.
Eli and Lu Ling decided to convene a meeting of the family to announce the news that Charles was in a coma and that he would temporarily manage the family on Charles' behalf.
It was the first meeting since Charles was unconscious, but everyone knew what it meant, so everyone who had time to come came.
Most people in Eli's power have no opinion on Charles' coma. Because Eli is Charles's son, and his abilities are obvious to all.
In the middle of the meeting, Taylor suddenly entered with a henchman pushing the door.
"Sorry, I didn't block it." The secretary looked at Eli and said guiltily.
"You get out." Eli waved his hand and asked the door to close the conference room.
"It's quite lively." Taylor said, looking at Eli on the throne. "I heard that the family held a meeting, I still don't believe it, so I came here to take a look."
Taylor looked at Eli, the smile on his face fading.
"What, as soon as my father falls, he will seize power?"
From the moment Taylor appeared, Eli felt uncomfortable. At first, he was afraid that Taylor would be upset, so he didn't tell him, but he didn't expect him to know about it and find it.
"It's not a matter of seizing power, the patriarch is still my father, I'm just temporarily carrying out the affairs of this period of time in place of my father."
Eli wrinkled his eyebrows.
"Heh, it's a nice thing to say, I'm afraid only you know what you think in your heart." Taylor approached with a wheelchair.
"And you are not qualified to perform affairs in place of your father for the time being, after all, I am my father's eldest son, and the affairs of this family should be represented by me."
Taylor had a faint smile on his face.
"I just thought you weren't in good health, so you should have a good rest." Eli said.
This sentence stimulated Taylor's nerves, since he was sick, he hated others talking about his body the most, and at this moment, listening to Eli talk about it, his heart was even more angry.
"If you are physically inconvenient, can't you share it for your family? If you are physically inconvenient, can't you help your father solve problems? Taylor sneered.
"If you want to be in charge of the family affairs, don't come up with this high-sounding reason, if you say that you are so righteous, you should let the people in the family decide who is in charge of the family affairs, you are right."
Taylor's gaze scanned the conference room.
"Don't forget, when you weren't in the family before, my father and I were in charge of the affairs of the clan, so I have the ability and opportunity to be qualified for this position."
Everyone in the conference room looked at the brothers as if they were bustling.
There are a lot of people who want to inherit the patriarch of the Will family, but most of them don't have a chance, whether it is identity or ability, Taylor and Eli are pressing them, and seeing these two brothers fighting at this moment, everyone is watching these two people like a play.
"Big brother, do you really want to compete with me?" Eli looked at Taylor with a little hurt in his eye.
He always thought that Taylor was just a little distorted after injuring his body, and as long as he recovered, he didn't expect that he would really compete with him for the position of acting patriarch regardless of his feelings.
"What do you say?" Taylor looked at him with no concessions.
From the moment Taylor came in, Lu Ling knew that today's matter might not end so easily.
Several people in the conference room have changed their expressions since Taylor appeared, and although it is subtle, it has not escaped her glasses.
She had guessed that Taylor would be restless early on, so she had used a lot of Taylor's power before.
After returning to country A this time, he has basically consumed almost everything, and the order from below has also made him feel a lot more settled, but I don't know what gave him the courage to stand up this time.
Could it be that he still has a deeper hidden power, so he is so confident?
"What do you want me to do? Interested in me? Taylor looked at Lu Ling on the side and said lightly.
"Big brother, don't go too far!" His fiancée was molested in public, Eli said angrily, with a protective posture.
"I talked to her and I didn't talk to you." Taylor scoffed.
The smile on the corner of Lu Ling's mouth was even more playful, "Yes, I am interested in you, and the interest is not small." "You say, this angle passes, whether it passes directly through your ears or through your hair." Lu Ling smiled, but the smile on her face was a little cold.
"You, you dare, you dare to bring a murder weapon in the conference room!" Taylor's face turned blue from her anger.
"What's that, without me, how many people in the Will family might have been murdered by others, and I can't bring toys as a person like the captain of the security team?"
Lu Ling sneered, "And do you think you can use a murder weapon if you want to attack you?" ”
With a disdainful smile on her face, Taylor's face turned grim.
Seeing that Lu Ling had the upper hand, Eli breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
The meeting couldn't go on, and under Taylor's turmoil, Eli ended the meeting early.
"Acting patriarch or something, don't think about it so much." Taylor sneered, "Even if it's the acting patriarch, it's my turn first. ”
Eli looked at Taylor's back and gritted his teeth, if Taylor directly wanted to grab the position of patriarch, it would be okay to say, but it was obviously not the case today, he didn't want to take care of the affairs of the clan, and he didn't want Eli to be in charge alone.
When the others were gone, Eli asked his henchmen to go to his office, and Lu Ling followed him inside.
"How did you get in?"
"What's next for you?"
Both spoke at the same time.
"If you go outside, you must first settle inside, Taylor has been so disruptive that it is not a way, once the Mussen family takes advantage of the fire to rob, the Nawei family will face a threat, Taylor is an occasional bomb."
"So you want to?"
"Suppression by force, what do you think?"
Lu Ling shook her head, it seemed that Eli was still too soft-hearted and didn't want to be heavy on Taylor.
"You've got to give those bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods a chance to jump out." Although Lu Ling smiled, her tone was cold.
