Mr. CEO Loves The Devilish Beauty Chapter 252 - The Camouflage Of Deception

When Ye Jie saw the time on the huge clock in the room, he smiled beautifully as he said, "Happy anniversary to both of you!" Both Zhu Chen and He Susu turned to look at the time. It was precisely 12:00 am. "I don't have a present for you both. So, you guys have to cut me some slack." Ye Jie was trying to ease up the intense mood in the room.
Both He Susu and Zhu Chen chuckled at him as He Susu told him, "I have already gotten the most precious gift, tonight."
"What's that?" Ye Jie asked curiously.
"You!" Zhu Chen replied to his question. "Getting our son is already the best gift we can wish for."
Ye Jie pursed his lips before his lips slowly turned upwards.
"Look at my forgetfulness," He Susu facepalmed herself as she pushed Ye Jie back to the bed saying, "I totally forgot that you're still sick. And look at you, you've been standing barefoot all this time. What if the fever got worse?" He Susu checked his temperature with the back of her hand.
"I'm fine really," Ye Jie had to repeat this umpteenth time but it appeared that even now, no-one cared of what he said.
"That's for Chen to decide. He's the doctor here." He Susu told him as she tucked him under the duvet and bundled him as sushi only leaving this face out.
Zhu Chen checked his pulse again and said, "Your fever hasn't gone down yet. You need plenty of rest. We won't disturb you for now. Go to sleep and leave all those crazy thoughts out of your mind." Ye Jie nodded his head.
"Oh, I have to tell Azalea. She'll be so happy to know that you're her brother." He Susu announced happily. But seeing the odd expression on Ye Jie's face, she had a thought, "Does she already know?"
Ye Jie scratched the back of his neck sheepishly. But his reaction only confirmed her suspicion. "That child! How dare she hide such a big thing from me?" He Susu suddenly raged with fury as she turned to leave.
"Oh no! Su, stop! Calm down first," Zhu Chen tried to stop He Susu since he was the one most familiar with his wife's anger. "Let's hear him out." He suggested but He Susu wasn't planning on listening to anyone.
Seeing her leaving with such angry vibes emitting from her, Ye Jie got anxious. He couldn't let her blame Azalea for his own stubbornness. He was the one trying to hide from them. Azalea had been nagging him from the day one. But Ye Jie and his stupid lack of security made him keep his mouth shut until now. His mind was reeling and in his disarrayed mind, he called out, "Mom, stop!"
Those two words fell like a spell that had frozen He Susu to her spot. Not daring to move an inch at all. And Ye Jie continued to talk, "I asked Zelie not to tell you. I'm sorry about that! But Zelie is not at fault here." He was doing a good job defending his sister. "Please, don't be angry."
He Susu turned around and Ye Jie saw a bright smile on her face as if a rose had bloomed anew. She paced back to his bed and said, "Say it one more time!"
Ye Jie pursed his lips but still managed to say, "Mom!"
"I can die in peace now." He Susu palmed his face saying, "If my son will say then this mother will give her life much less forgiving Zelie." She couldn't possibly explain the feelings that she felt when she heard him call her, 'mom'.
Although Zhu Chen was brooding at the side that Ye Jie didn't call him dad, he was still glad that Ye Jie managed to accept He Susu as his mother subconsciously. Slowly, his son will accept everyone. He needed to stay patient.
"Aren't we forgetting the most basic issue here?" Ye Jie voiced out his question making both He Susu and Zhu Chen look at him.
"What issue?" Zhu Chen asked.
"How did I become a Ye?" Listening to his question both of them went silent. That was the mystery that needed to be solved. But since both of them were too engrossed in the happiness of finding their son that they had disregarded this issue.
Finding the real culprit of this whole mystery was the main purpose. Mysteries are always bent and twisted. It's our job to untangle the webs of secrets and camouflage of deceptions to reveal the truth. Because in the end, every mystery starts with oneself and ends with oneself.
Mysteries begins when we start questioning and turn to look for answers but mysteries only end when we understand those questions to find the answers hidden in them.
Now, it was time to reveal some people's real face by snatching their camouflage of deceptions away from them.
