Chapter 1397 I Can’t Stand It Anymore

Alicia and Ye Bufan were already similar in height, and with her sudden lunge, her body rushed forward, bringing the bottomless chasm of her chest directly into Ye Bufan's view. A rich fragrance assailed him, bringing with it a powerful sense of suffocation.

He swallowed with difficulty, "We've achieved our goal for today. Is this really necessary?"

Alicia lowered her head, first pecking him lightly on the forehead, then said with seductive eyes, "I'm throwing myself at you simply because I like you. It has nothing to do with anything else."

With that, she reached out and tugged lightly, and her bikini top fell off to the side.

Instantly, Ye Bufan felt a dizzying sensation, like mountains toppling and seas overturning. In this situation, any normal man would be unable to hold back, and the flames that had accumulated in his body for days erupted instantly.

He flipped over, pinning Alicia beneath him, and soon his swimming trunks and Alicia's only remaining bikini also flew off.

At this moment, he no longer cared about anything else. Whether she was an Eastern woman or a Western woman, he would make her his own first.

In the Perran Family's main hall, an Old Man with a face full of anger sat in the center. It was the Family Head, Gomes.

Kneeling rigidly before him was a Young man, none other than Alicia's older half-brother, Cassiano.

"Bastard, you little beast! Who told you to lay a hand on Ye Bufan? This is such a big matter; did you get my permission?"

When Gomes heard that Cassiano had sent people to assassinate Ye Bufan, he broke out in a cold sweat.

The fates of the Brown Family and the Ghost Witch Sect were clear for all to see. Although the Perran Family also had its own trump cards, there was absolutely no need to provoke such a powerful enemy.

Cassiano was directly brought here by the Family's Elder, and he had no idea why. He even thought the Family had found out about his gambling debts.

At this moment, after hearing Gomes speak, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking it was no big deal at all.

"Grandfather, wasn't it just killing a pretty boy from Huaxia? It's nothing serious!

Besides, my sister is engaged. It's not appropriate for them to be together. As a member of the Perran Family, I can't just stand by and watch our Family be shamed. We have to do something.

I did this entirely for the sake of the Family. Was I wrong?"

The Young man's words were so righteous and high-sounding that Gomes's anger, which had just subsided a little, flared up again.

"You brainless scoundrel, I'll beat you to death!"

Gomes swung the cane in his hand, striking Cassiano repeatedly on the head.

Facing the Family Head's punishment, even though Cassiano was a wastrel, he dared not move.

After beating him for a while, Gomes threw the cane on the ground and angrily cursed, "How dare a good-for-nothing like you say you're thinking for the Family? You've brought great disaster upon the Family this time!"

"Grandfather, I just don't understand. Isn't it just killing a Huaxia person? What's the big deal…?"

Cassiano was completely bewildered. Even now, he didn't know what had happened. He had no control over the Perran Family's information network, and there had been no news from the people he had sent out.

"You're spouting nonsense!" Gomes roared, "If you could kill him, of course, it would be no big deal, but can you? The few people you sent out aren't even enough to stick between his teeth!"

"Grandfather, it's not as serious as you say. The other party is just a small doctor…"

Cassiano usually only indulged in eating, drinking, gambling, and whoring, never concerning himself with Family affairs. Even now, he didn't know what kind of mistake he had made.

"Who told you he was a small doctor? He's the Medical Immortal of Huaxia! He even annihilated the Ghost Witch Sect. What makes you think you can kill him? Do you have the right?"

The more Gomes spoke, the angrier he became, wishing he could directly beat this Grandson to death with a stick.

Cassiano's father, Buffon, had been standing nearby. Seeing this, he quickly advised, "Father, your health is important. There's no need to get angry over such a little beast."

Gomes took a deep breath, suppressing the anger in his heart, and asked, "Tell me, who exactly told you to do it?"

Cassiano hesitated for a moment, then stammered, "It…it was me. I felt that my sister and that Huaxia person were affecting our Family's reputation…"

He had only spoken half of his sentence when Gomes angrily interrupted him, "Shut up! Do you think I don't know what kind of person you are? You'd consider the Family?

If you don't tell the truth, I'll kick you out of the Perran Family!"

Seeing that the Old Man was truly enraged, Cassiano no longer dared to hide anything. Trembling, he said, "It…it was my brother-in-law who told me to do it…"

He was just a good-for-nothing who only knew how to eat, drink, gamble, and whore. Once he was kicked out of the Family, begging would be his only option. In his fear, he recounted the entire incident from beginning to end.

"Take this beast out for me. Without my

permission, he is not allowed to leave the house again."

Gomes gave the order, directly imprisoning Cassiano.

After he was taken out, only Buffon and his son remained in the hall.

"Father, what exactly is going on? Since Olivier wants to deal with that Ye, why doesn't he do it himself? Why involve Cassiano?"

"Why involve him? Because he's a brainless good-for-nothing who was used as a pawn without even knowing it."

Gomes's anger had not yet subsided. "He has a head, but I don't know what he's thinking all day. For such a big matter, if I wanted to act, I would send people myself. There's no way it would be his turn!"

"But Father, there's one thing I don't understand. Now, Alicia and that Young man's affair is known globally. This isn't good for our Family. Why aren't you stopping it?"

"You still see things too superficially. You're not even as good as that little girl from the Berwick Family."

Gomes shook his head, his eyes filled with disappointment towards his son.

"This…"

Buffon was completely bewildered. Although he wasn't as stubborn as Cassiano, their intelligence was quite similar.

Seeing his expression, Gomes explained, "No matter how things develop now, it will be beneficial to our Perran Family.

An alliance with the Berwick Family is of immense benefit to our Family, otherwise, I wouldn't have agreed."

"Yes, Father, that's why I said we should stop that girl Alicia from acting recklessly."

Gomes said, "You don't understand that Huaxia person named Ye. At such a young age, he possesses hundreds of billions in assets. As soon as he arrived in Apple City, he completely dealt with the Brown Family and easily annihilated the Ghost Witch Sect behind the Berwick Family.

If such a man truly gets together with Alicia, the benefits he brings to our Family will be no less than an alliance with the Berwick Family."

"What? That Huaxia person annihilated the Ghost Witch Sect?"

As a core member of one of the three great Families in the Federal Capital, Buffon naturally knew how formidable the Ghost Witch Sect was. He couldn't imagine how it could be destroyed by a Young man.

Gomes said, "Otherwise, if the other party wasn't too powerful, why would that little girl from the Berwick Family think of having Cassiano take action?"

Buffon looked astonished, "But with such a powerful opponent, how could Cassiano possibly deal with him? Didn't Denniston see that?"
