Chapter 961: Where Is the One Million Dollars That You’ve Promised Me?
No matter how reluctant Han Xue was to move out, she was still forced to move out. She moved out with her son Ye Chenyu.
Most of the maids employed at the castle also moved with Han Xue to the other mansion and only four employees of the castle remained; they were two security guards, Qin Xiaoyu, and the doorman Xiao Wang.
Ye Hao had asked them to remain.
He had also specially transferred two of his personal bodyguards to the castle for his daughter’s safety.
Ye Hao also hired new chefs and two new maids.
The huge castle would not seem so quiet and empty if there were more people living within it.
He Xiyan moved into the castle a week later.
She did not feel happy but instead, she felt very heavy-hearted when she returned to the castle.
The decor of the castle had changed quite significantly and some of the furniture had been replaced but it wasn’t very different from when she had first moved into the castle. She could even spot some furnishings that had been purchased while she had been living at the castle.
Xi Xi was extremely excited since the detestable Aunty Han and Ye Chenyu were finally gone from the house.
Humph, she didn’t want to see their faces anymore.
“Mom, look! These are the flowers that I’ve planted and over there you’ll see my pet goldfish,” Xi Xi said excitedly as she skipped around the backyard. She had forgotten what she had planted because the plant she had pointed at had not even started flowering.
This would be her personal paradise in the future.
She had decided that she would invite her classmates to come over to play hide-in-seek in the castle if she was in a good mood.
He Xiyan noticed how happy Xi Xi was but she wasn’t as happy as her daughter, especially when she realized that Xi Xi must have probably suffered a lot with Han Xue as her stepmother for her to be so elated now that Han Xue had left.

At the same time, Han Xue was sullen and upset in a mansion located at Yangguang Road which was in the southern part of the city. It had been more than 10 days since she moved to this mansion but she was still very upset.
This mansion was more than 4,000 square meters and also lavishly decorated but it still paled in comparison to the castle. The castle was more than 5,300 square meters and decor and the design and decor were absolutely spectacular. She still missed the private hot spring bath and movie theatre facilities that the castle boasted.
Han Xue fumed angrily as she stood in front of the windowsill and the wine glass in her hand was already half empty. Her habit of drinking wine had recently turned into an addiction and she would drink a bottle of Rothschild wine every day.
Suddenly, a detestable figure appeared at the doorway.
Wang Lan entered Han Xue’s room expressionlessly, like a god of pestilence.
She closed the door after she entered.
“Where is the one million dollars that you’ve promised me?” Wang Lan said as she cut right to the chase and immediately quoted a figure
Han Xue turned to face her and her eyes widened in anger.
Wang Lan’s words were like a spark that kindled Han Xue’s rage and she yelled angrily, “Are you crazy? When did I promise to give you a million dollars?”
Han Xue wished that this woman would just disappear forever. Wang Lan had merely stumbled upon some of her secrets but she had used it against her and repeatedly blackmailed her.
Wang Lan scoffed coldly and stuck her hands leisurely in her pockets. Han Xue’s angry outburst did not scare her at all and she looked completely fearless as she replied confidently, “I want to see the money in my account within three days. My bank account hasn’t changed.”
Han Xue’s face flushed in anger.
She suddenly rushed over and gripped Wang Lan’s collar, her eyes blazed with rage as she asked, “Who the hell do you think you are? How dare you threaten me over and over again? You must be dreaming if you think that I’m still going to wire the money to you.”
