Chapter 1308: Borrowing a Knife to Kill
At the Berwick Family estate, Olivier said with a look of unwillingness, “Sister, are we just going to give that shop to Ye? Two hundred million usd is not a small sum, and besides, this publicly slapped our Family’s face.”
Denniston’s expression was solemn, with a hint of ruthlessness in her eyes.
“What do you know? A person who wants to achieve great things must know when to yield and when to stand firm. Only a brainless person would stubbornly resist when their strength is clearly inferior to the opponent, and in the end, only they would suffer.
Ye clearly came looking for trouble today. His strength is too great; just one of his subordinates took out Matteus and Poseidon. We still can’t see where his bottom line is.
If a direct confrontation were to happen, he would only lose as an individual, but if we lose, it would destroy a Family. In this situation, temporarily avoiding his sharp edge is the wisest choice.
The property is still there and won’t run away; we will get it back sooner or later.”
Olivier knew that what his sister said was right, but as the Young Master of the Berwick Family, he had never suffered such a grievance before, so he still said unwillingly, “Sister, are we just going to endure this?”
“Temporary concession does not mean complete submission.” Denniston’s face once again showed a ruthless expression. “The Berwick Family’s advantages are not that easy to take. I will not let Ye have an easy time.”
Olivier’s face showed a hint of joy: “Sister, are you planning to make a move on Ye Bufan?”
“For an opponent with such formidable strength as Ye Bufan, if we want to make a move on him, we must ensure a single fatal blow, otherwise, the consequences will be endless.
I need to plan thoroughly. Once I strike, it will be a thunderous blow, and I absolutely cannot give him a chance to survive. However, the timing is not right yet; I need to wait a bit longer.”
Olivier said with some disappointment, “Then what do you mean?”
“It’s simple, use someone else’s hand to deal with this little guy. In the words of Huaxia, it’s called ‘borrowing a knife to kill’,” Denniston said. “The Federal Capital has Three Great Families. Some matters don’t necessarily require us to act personally, such as the strongest Lorraine Family.”
Olivier looked stunned: “How is that possible? The Lorraine Family is already our enemy; how could they help us deal with Ye Bufan?”
“If they don’t make a move, we can make them make a move.”
“Miss Romons and Raul are indeed formidable, but the Lorraine Family doesn’t just consist of the two of them. There are also good-for-nothings like Cassiano, for example, the lustful and brainless Pike.”
Denniston smiled slyly, “You just need to do this, and the rest we just need to watch the show…”
After listening to Denniston’s plan, Olivier immediately became beaming with joy.
“Sister, you are truly too smart!”
Denniston said proudly, “I have thoroughly studied Ye Bufan’s information these past few days. He is indeed very powerful and has created many miracles, but he also has his weakness, and that is his women.
As long as our plan succeeds, the Lorraine Family and he will inevitably become mortal enemies. At that time, we just need to watch from the sidelines, and if we want, we can give a finishing blow to whoever needs it.”
“Understood, I’ll go do it now.”
Olivier finished speaking and excitedly walked out of the room.
Inside a luxurious clubhouse, a tall Young man sat on a luxurious sofa, with a seductive woman on each side, drinking and fondling them, looking very comfortable.
Just then, the door opened, and a little guy hurried in.
“Young Master Pike, I have good news to tell you.”
The Young man was Pike, a good-for-nothing among the third generation of the Lorraine Family. Although this guy was also the Patriarch’s Grandson and born of the same mother as Raul and Miss Romons, his personality was completely different, and he spent his days doing nothing but eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling.
The little guy’s name was Silva, a notorious pimp in the Federal Capital, who controlled a large number of beautiful women. And since Pike was obsessed with women, their relationship was extremely close.
Pike glared at Silva: “What good news could you possibly have? You said a long time ago that you’d help me find a top-tier beauty, and there’s been no sign of it yet.”
Silva had a lewd look on his face: “Young Master, there’s news now, and it’s an extremely top-tier Huaxia beauty.”
“Really? You’re not lying to me, are you?”
Pike looked excited. As the Young Master of the Lorraine Family, he never lacked beautiful women, but his favorite were still oriental women from Huaxia.
“Young Master, how would I dare to lie to you? Look, I’ve even brought the photo.”
Silva said, taking out his phone and bringing up a photo of a radiant oriental beauty, who was Lu Banxia.
Pike snatched the phone into his hand and excitedly exclaimed, “Oh my God, there’s actually such a beautiful oriental woman, she’s simply too beautiful.”
He pushed away the two women in his arms and eagerly shouted, “Quickly tell me where this woman is! No matter what, I must have her.”
“Don’t worry, Young Master, I saw her by chance on the street, and I have people watching her now. As long as you want to, you can go over anytime.”
“Let’s go quickly, I can’t wait.”
Pike finished speaking, stood up, and hurried out the door. Silva showed a strange smile on his face and followed him out.
Alice had something to do in the afternoon and left the hotel alone.
After Lu Banxia finished work, Ye Bufan took Ye Tian to meet her, and the three of them had dinner together, then headed to the newly purchased shop.
Although it was already evening, the shop was brightly lit, with hundreds of workers busy inside.
To re-plan everything here in just one day was undoubtedly a huge workload, but the Berwick Family had sent a lot of manpower, and everything was tense and orderly.
At this moment, all the previous facilities in the clubhouse had been removed, and new furniture was now being re-planned and arranged.
“Ye Dage, is this the shop you bought? It’s truly amazing.”
After looking around, Lu Banxia loved it immensely.
“That’s right, tomorrow this will be our Chinese medicine clinic.”
“This shop is large enough, the location is good enough, and there’s not much renovation needed. This must have cost a lot of money, right?”
As an excellent business Genius, Lu Banxia immediately saw the extraordinary aspects of the place.
Ye Bufan smiled playfully: “It cost a lot, a whole one usd.”
“What? One usd? Ye Dage, be serious, no joking.”
Lu Banxia naturally didn’t believe this absurd price.
Ye Bufan laughed: “I’m not joking, I’m serious. I bought this shop for one usd, and it even came with renovations. If you don’t believe me, ask Ye Tian.”
Confirming that it wasn’t a joke, Lu Banxia’s jaw dropped in surprise: “Ye Dage, how is that possible?”
“It’s like this, this is a property of the Berwick Family…”
Ye Bufan briefly and concisely explained what had happened.
“Ye Dage, you are truly amazing.” Lu Banxia calmed down from her shock and asked with some concern, “But if such a large property is given away for free, will the Berwick Family be willing?”
Ye Bufan smiled: “Certainly not. Given the character of that woman, Denniston, she will definitely cause me some trouble in the future, but at least for now, it belongs to me.”
