?Chapter 734:
Kenton had mentioned that Le wasn’t so frail that she needed a wheelchair. In other words, the im that Le was dying and wanted to see her granddaughter onest time was just an excuse.
“If I had done this, how else could I have forced them to find you and bring you back?” Le sighed. “When you were lost, your mother’s spirits were deeply affected. I was preupied with caring for her, leaving the burden of searching for you to Conroy and Gianna. But years went by without any news of you until your mother’s death. Not being able to find you has been a sore spot in my heart.”
By the time she had realized what had been happening, the Vazquez Group had already fallen under Conroy’s control, leaving her powerless. With no other options, she had repeatedly pressured Conroy to search for Eileen. It had taken him a long time to gather any information.
“So the Vazquez family isn’t struggling at all. They’ve been deceiving me,” Eileen said.
Le nodded.
“They convinced me by saying that we didn’t know your true nature and were concerned you might have malicious intentions if you desired the Vazquez family’s assets. But now I know it was just a pretext to get rid of you.”
As soon as Eileen was convinced there was nothing of value here and chose to leave, the Vazquez family would inevitably fall into Conroy’s hands.
“Gianna has likely been bought off by Conroy. She respects me out of duty but follows Conroy’s lead in everything else. After all, the Vazquez family is now dependent on Conroy,” Le said.

“Grandma, what are you nning? What do you need me for?” Eileen asked directly.
Le gritted her teeth and said, “The Vazquez family has a legacy of a thousand years. It can’t be ruined after your mother passed. If Conroy gains control of the Vazquez family’s assets, the Vazquez Group will be the Finch Group!”
“Grandma, if it’s just the Vazquez Group you’re concerned about, I have a solution,” Eileen replied. She wasn’t fully aware of the Vazquez Group’s significance in Alverton, but she was confident that either the EB Group or the Apex Group could reim it.
But Le quickly pointed out that it wasn’t that simple. Historically, the Vazquez family had a rule that family property could not be inherited by men. Every woman must marry someone who then resides with the Vazquez family. To ensure the family’s legacy is preserved, descendants must choose their spouses carefully. ording to tradition, only couples can be buried together in the Vazquez family’s ancestral tomb.
With Eileen’s mother now deceased before her husband, she could only be temporarily interred outside the family’s ancestral burial site. It would only be after Conroy’s death that they could finally beid to rest side by side in the Vazquez family’s ancestral tomb.
Le said, “Eileen, Alverton may be vast, but there’s an old saying that lonely spirits cannot be reincarnated. I don’t care whether you manage to reim the Vazquez family’s property or not—after death, all is meaningless. But you must ensure that your mother isid to rest in the Vazquez family’s ancestral tomb!”
The Vazquez family’s ancestral tomb was situated deep in the mountains, where other noble ns of the family resided. Only couples could be interred there, with their approval. Eileen frowned, pondering how to make that happen.
“Aside from arranging for Conroy and your mother to be buried together so that your mother can enter the ancestral tomb, there’s another option: if you can uncover evidence of Conroy’s…”
