Chapter 1385 Lend It to Me

Denniston's expression softened a little: "Remember, I am just a woman. The future Berwick Family will still be handed over to you, so you must become strong."

In fact, there were many core third-generation members with inheritance qualifications within the Berwick Family, but in her eyes, as long as she helped, the position of future Family Head would inevitably belong to Olivier, and others had no right to covet it.

"I understand, Sister. I was short-sighted, and it won't happen again," Olivier said. "I will forget about that woman, Alicia. No matter how beautiful she is, she cannot compare to the Family's interests. Tomorrow, I will go to the Perran Family to break off the engagement."

Denniston shook her head: "Commendable spirit, but still no brain."

"Uh…"

Olivier was a bit confused and asked, bewildered, "Sister, am I wrong? Didn't you just teach me not to ruin important matters because of a woman?

Under these circumstances, if I don't break off the engagement, am I supposed to propose?"

"That's right, we are going to propose."

Denniston said: "Before making any decision, you must weigh the pros and cons. If you break off the engagement now, wouldn't that just play into that bitch's hands? Besides temporary satisfaction, would it benefit our Berwick Family in any way?"

"This…" Olivier said through gritted teeth, "But that bitch has already slept with that damned Huaxia man. Am I really supposed to marry her?"

"That's right, you are going to marry her."

Denniston's words shocked Olivier immensely.

"Sister, there's no way I can marry that bitch. If I marry her into our Berwick Family, how will I ever have Face to live in the Federal Capital? How will I have Face to contend for the Family position?"

No matter how deep his scheming, people who mingle in that circle still have to care about Face. Alicia sleeping with Ye Bufan in front of so many people had already spread throughout the entire M Country's high society.

If he continued with this engagement at this time, everyone would probably think he had a cuckold's hat on his head, and he really wouldn't be able to continue in that circle.

"Don't rush, you need to think about this slowly."

Denniston asked: "Think about it, if our Berwick Family and the Perran Family intermarry, who will benefit?"

Olivier took a deep breath, calmed the anger in his heart, thought calmly, and said: "If the two Families successfully intermarry, and then jointly resist the Lorraine Family, both sides will benefit.

Compared to that, our Berwick Family should benefit more."

"That's right, but that was before. Now there's a change."

Denniston said, "Now our Berwick Family is completely at odds with Ye Bufan. If we break off the engagement now, then only our Family will have to contend with Ye Bufan. With that guy's strength, we will probably pay a greater price."

Olivier asked doubtfully: "Sister, even if we don't break off the engagement, will that old fox Gomes really stand up and help our Family?"

A cunning smile appeared on Denniston's Face: "The engagement between the two Families is known throughout the entire Capital. As long as we don't break it off, the Perran Family cannot actively break off the engagement.

Now that Alicia has slept with Ye Bufan, if you still continue this engagement and want to marry his woman into our Berwick Family, what do you think he will do?"

Olivier thought for a moment and suddenly understood: "That kid Ye will definitely try his best to stop this marriage, even going to the Perran Family to snatch her."

"That's right," Denniston said triumphantly. "Now that old fox Gomes is watching from the sidelines, but then he won't be able to hide, no matter if he wants to or not, he will have to Face Ye Bufan.

If the Perran Family kills Ye Bufan, that's a great thing for us. If Ye Bufan gains the upper hand, we won't have any losses either. So, this marriage cannot be broken off no matter what."

"I understand, Sister. Continuing this marriage, besides reputation, has no losses for us, but can bring infinite benefits."

Olivier said, "Tomorrow, I will go to that old fox Gomes to set the wedding date. Then I'll see what kind of reaction that bitch Alicia will have."

Denniston nodded: "Also, have you ever thought, Alicia is known as the most beautiful woman in M Country, and she has always been extremely proud. Would she really give her first time to a stranger the moment they meet?"

Olivier's expression changed: "Sister, you mean?"

"What I mean is, it's very likely they were acting for you, and not genuinely together," Denniston said. "Recall the scene at the time, is there such a possibility?"

Olivier had been blinded by anger at the time and hadn't paid attention to the details. Now, reminded by Denniston, he began to recall the scene in the room at that time.

As the Young Master of the Berwick Family, he naturally wasn't lacking women, and he was very clear about matters between men and women. After thinking carefully, he immediately

discovered the problem.

Although the two were very intimate at the time, nothing substantial had happened, meaning that the cuckold's hat on his head was fake.

"I understand, this damned bitch was playing me," Olivier said with a ferocious expression. "Since that's the case, I'll insist on marrying her and then thoroughly ravage her."

Early the next morning, just as Ye Bufan and the others finished breakfast, his phone rang. It was Lan Bingyu calling.

After curing Lan Guofeng last time, this girl did not choose her own Family's company, but instead followed Lu Banxia to work at Angel Pharmaceuticals.

"Old classmate, do you have time today? I want you to help me with something."

Lan Bingyu's tone on the phone was very cheerful, seemingly having returned to the happy little girl she was in high school.

"What is it? Tell me. I have time."

As the saying goes, meeting an old acquaintance in a foreign land. So far away, if an old classmate has a need, Ye Bufan would certainly not refuse as long as he could do it.

Lan Bingyu giggled: "That's great! I'm borrowing you for a bit today."

"Borrow me for a bit? What do you want to do? You're not going to use me as a boyfriend, are you?"

Ye Bufan was originally joking, but unexpectedly, Lan Bingyu directly affirmed, "You got it right, but there's no reward.

Tell me your location, I'm coming to pick you up now. We can talk about the details when we meet."

"Alright then."

Ye Bufan sent his location, and when he walked to the manor gate, a red Beetle drove up.

The car window lowered, revealing Lan Bingyu's smiling Face: "Come on, get in."

Lan Guofeng's illness was completely cured, her Family's company came back to life, and financial problems were completely resolved, allowing this girl to completely let go of the stone in her heart and return to her previous happy demeanor.

Ye Bufan sat in the passenger seat and said with a chuckle: "Tell me, what's going on? You didn't really fall in love with me, did you?"

"So what? Are you already taken?"

Lan Bingyu's Face was full of smiles, but she sighed inwardly, knowing that the man in front of her was no longer the classmate from high school, and she was completely unworthy of him.

Then she smiled again: "Since I can't fully own you, then I'll just borrow you for a bit."

Ye Bufan smiled: "No problem, we're old classmates. Tell me, how do you want to use me?"
