Chapter Index

    Hearing what the old lady said, William nodded slightly: “Understood!”

    Didn’t he know that the old man was dead and the family needed to fight to show their bloodiness? This was why Scarlett stood up and took the lead and he and the old lady compromised.

    But seeing the treasury and manpower in such a state, he was still extremely heartbroken.

    One night, I returned to ten years ago.

    The old lady looked at the portrait and sighed again: “I am still old after all, otherwise I wouldn’t have handled the matter so poorly this time and brought the old man into it.”

    William forced a smile: “Old lady, you are not old, you are just overworked these days, and the old man is dead, so you are a little depressed.”

    “When you go to the palace to negotiate, explain the whole story, find out Asna, the common enemy, and restore peace to everyone, you will regain your confidence.”

    William added: “I believe that our Boston family will definitely regain its glory. Old lady, don’t think too much, it’s better to go to bed early!”

    “I want to sleep too, but the negotiations are not completed, so where can I sleep?”

    The old lady sighed softly: “Tell me, can we and the Amber Group sit down and finalize the settlement agreement tomorrow?”

    William smiled and responded to the old lady: “This negotiation was personally brokered by the Swiss royal family, and Temu Cihua presided over the overall situation on their behalf!”

    “With the official name behind it, the Amber Group will probably stop playing tricks. No, bitch Asna doesn’t dare to do anything, otherwise she will become a public enemy.”

    He made a judgment: “So this negotiation should go smoothly.”

    “I hope so!”

    The old lady coughed lightly, and then looked at the portrait again, adding an extra layer of silence: “I’m afraid that so many people in the Amber Group have died, and they won’t let it go.”

    William smiled and comforted again: “With this fight, both the Amber Group and the Boston family will be miserable.”

    “If the Amber Group does not sit down and negotiate, the final result will be a lose-lose situation for both parties. This is not the outcome we want, nor is it what he wants to see.”

    “Besides, Amber Group only killed the chairman’s nephew and dozens of senior executives, while we killed the old man and hundreds of senior officials.”

    He was very sure: “So, the Amber Group will definitely negotiate peace with us.”

    The old lady nodded, and then squeezed out a sentence: “Tell me, if peace is negotiated, what conditions will the Boston family offer?”

    “It’s very simple. We need money and territory.”

    William narrowed his eyes slightly: “Of course, we will be asked for the murderer, but don’t worry, I have already made arrangements.”

    “As long as the Swiss Group sincerely sits down and negotiates, I will hold Scarlett in front of them!”

    “Then he fired three shots in front of them and blocked their lion’s mouth with one life.”

    “We can’t take Asna’s blame, but since my sister is also the instigator of this war, how can the Kohaku Group have the nerve to impose harsh demands?”

    He added: “Besides, the old man is dead and we haven’t asked them for the murderer yet. Those two Lawrence men, even a fool can see that they are taking the blame.”

    Hearing this, the old lady gave a thumbs up and praised: “Yes, this is a good move. It is calculated carefully. A Scarlett can block the mouth of the lion of the Amber Group. It is very good.”

    “But she is my daughter and your sister after all. If we do this, will we be ridiculed by others? Will we be criticized by our nephews?”

    The old lady still had some worries: “If you don’t handle it well, not only will you and I be criticized by thousands of people, but it may also cause internal strife in the family. In that case, the gains outweigh the losses.”

    “Old lady, don’t worry, nothing will happen!”

    William had obviously weighed it up a long time ago, with a smile on his face:

    “Although Scarlett has accumulated a lot of family reputation this time, the new force surrounding her has already been exhausted by me sending her to the front line.”

    “Aren’t those bloody nephews and Scarlett fans clamoring for a fight to the death with the Amber Group?”

    “I fulfilled them!”

    “In the past week or so, wherever it is the most dangerous and intense, I will arrange for them to charge into battle!”

    “They killed a lot of Amber Bones, but they themselves were basically exhausted.”

    “So even though Scarlett has a very high reputation now, she is actually almost becoming a bachelor commander!”

    “Coupled with the dangers and hardships brought about by these ten days of fighting, many neutral faction elders and nephews have changed their attitudes and want to end the confrontation as soon as possible.”

    “Everyone wants to re-enter a peaceful environment, otherwise they will not be able to continue the feasting and sensuality they had before!”

    William’s smile turned cold: “So even though Scarlett has a great reputation now, there are actually very few backbones supporting her!”

    The old lady gave a thumbs up and praised: “Well done, this has reduced many unstable factors for the family.”

    “I wanted Scarlett to take revenge and gave her a lot of resources to support me. The idea was to use her to create some peace negotiation value, and then use her brain to calm the war!”

    “I didn’t expect you to indirectly eradicate those rebellious nephews.”

    The old lady exhaled a long breath: “In this way, the peace talks will be easier this time. At least there will be no fear of division within the family!”

    William nodded: “Yes, as long as there is no trouble inside, it doesn’t matter how outsiders see the joke. Time will dilute everything, including the shame!”

    Speaking of shame, he clenched his fist again, as if he remembered the ambiguity between Asna and Ye Fan, which seemed to be something that time could not dilute.

    “Very good! As expected of my son, he has considered it in detail!”

    The old lady praised again, then tilted her head slightly when she remembered something: “Are you sure you can take down Scarlett? Not only does she now have more guards, but she also hired experts to help her out.”

    She has already checked that the power Scarlett used to attack the Amber Group in the early stage did not come from the Boston family, but an unknown Eastern force.

    “Yes!”

    William smiled proudly: “Although I haven’t found out where the Eastern power in her hand comes from, I have already called her to tell her that you are sick and ask her to come back and take a look!”

    “Scarlett heard that you were sick and very serious, so she promised to come back to see you tonight.”

    William looked at the time: “I guess she’s almost here.”

    The old lady was very happy: “Okay, okay, blood is indeed thicker than water!”

    “By the way, as soon as Scarlett comes back, get it for me immediately. It’s best to break her hands and feet to avoid any accidents.”

    She reminded: “This is a bargaining chip that can block the mouth of the lion of the Amber Group. You must not let it go!”

    William nodded: “Don’t worry, I’ve asked Jenny to wait for her at the back door. I’ll greet her quietly and bring her in. If I catch her by surprise, she won’t be able to escape!”

    The old lady slapped the chair and said, “Very good, we have captured Scarlett, and the negotiations will be completely stable tomorrow. It will be easy to join forces with the Amber Group to deal with Asna in the future.”

    William narrowed his eyes: “Yes, I must kill that bitch Asna!”

    “Bang!”

    At this moment, a gunshot suddenly sounded outside the window, accompanied by a shrill scream.

    Then, the gunshots started popping, popping like fried beans.

    The faces of the old lady and William changed drastically. They subconsciously rushed to the window to check, but they couldn’t see anything for a while. They just heard bursts of gunfire from the back door.

    William rushed back to the table, picked up the phone and shouted: “Jenny, what happened at the back door?”

    “William, old lady, run!”

    On the other end of the phone, Jenny yelled in panic: “Scarlett is going to seize power, and she is leading people to kill you…”

    “Ah——”

    Before she finished speaking, there was another scream, and Jenny was silent again…
