Chapter 1409 Lorraine Family

After leaving the club, the three of them walked towards the parking lot, preparing to return to the hotel to rest.

But after only a few steps, a group of people suddenly rushed over, led by a young man and a little guy, who were Pike and Silva, followed by more than a dozen Lorraine Family bodyguards.

When he saw Lu Banxia, Pike's face showed an expression of extreme amazement; he hadn't expected the woman to be even more beautiful, sexier, and more charming than in the photos.

The guy's mouth was wide open in surprise, and drool was almost dripping down.

Seeing this guy staring at her, Lu Banxia gave him a disgusted look but ignored him, continuing to walk forward.

"This beautiful Young Miss, wait for me."

Seeing Lu Banxia about to leave, Pike finally came to his senses and rushed over to block her path.

"Beautiful Young Miss, allow me to introduce myself, my name is Pike!"

Silva quickly followed up, "This is our Lorraine Family's Young Master."

Ye Bufan now had a preliminary understanding of the three great families of the Federal Capital, and upon hearing that he was the Young Master of the Lorraine Family, he couldn't help but look at Pike a few more times.

However, he didn't say anything, leaving it to Lu Banxia to handle herself.

"Do you need something?"

Lu Banxia looked at Pike with disgust.

"Beautiful Young Miss, can you tell me your name?"

"No."

Lu Banxia refused very directly.

"Uh…"

This result was somewhat unexpected for Pike; in the past, as long as he revealed his identity as the Lorraine Family's Young Master, those women would flock to him, and being rejected was a first.

Although Lu Banxia's meaning was already very clear, he still persisted, saying,

"Beautiful Young Miss, may I invite you to dinner?"

"No," Lu Banxia said with a frown, "If you don't have anything important, please move aside. My boyfriend and I are going back to rest."

She refused very directly, and her words were very straightforward, directly stating that she already had a boyfriend.

"This…"

Normally, Pike might have given up after being rejected, but today was different; the temptation of the woman in front of him was simply too great, he couldn't even bear to move his gaze for a second.

"Well, a dinner with me costs ten thousand usd."

Seeing Lu Banxia about to leave, Pike directly pulled out his trump card, using money to overwhelm her.

"Keep your ten thousand usd, and move aside quickly."

"One hundred thousand

usd."

Pike immediately increased the price tenfold.

"Get lost!"

Lu Banxia could no longer suppress the anger in her heart and directly cursed.

"One million usd should be enough, right?"

Pike gritted his teeth and directly raised the price to one million usd. In his opinion, this was wealth that many people couldn't earn in a lifetime, so this woman had no reason to refuse.

The result, however, was beyond his expectation. Lu Banxia didn't speak this time but raised her leg and kicked him in the abdomen.

Although she had not practiced martial Dao, Lu Banxia had always kept fit, and her physical quality was very good. This kick was powerful enough to send him sprawling to the ground.

"You stinky bitch, you dare to hit someone? Do you know who this is? This is the Young Master of the Lorraine Family."

Silva quickly stepped forward and helped Pike up. "There's no need to be polite with this kind of woman; just snatch her back."

"This…"

Pike's face showed a hint of hesitation. Although he liked women, he had always used money to get them and had never resorted to forceful abduction.

After all, he had the Lorraine Family behind him, and if the Family Head found out, the consequences would be very serious.

"Young Master, what is there to hesitate about? This kind of opportunity doesn't come often. She's clearly an outsider. If she leaves, there won't be another chance."

Silva whispered into Pike's ear, continuously tempting him, "Besides, this woman was the first to strike, so even if we take her away, nothing will be said."

He thought his voice was very low, but Ye Bufan heard it clearly. He scanned the little guy from head to toe, finally looking at a button on his chest, and a cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Pike hesitated for a moment, and under Silva's instigation, he ultimately failed to control his inner desires. He waved his hand to the bodyguards behind him: "Take this woman away for me."

Lorraine Family, in the Family Head's study.

Ramos sat on the central sofa, and opposite him sat a pair of young men and women, the two most outstanding among the Family's third generation, Raul and Miss Romons.

The three of them were holding a small Family meeting. Although there seemed to be fewer people, this elder and two juniors could completely decide the affairs of the entire Lorraine Family.

Ramos said, "Have you all heard about the Berwick Family's recent affairs?"

"I've heard," Raul nodded. "I heard that the Berwick Family provoked a ruthless character, and not only did their own Family suffer heavy losses, but even the Ghost Witch Sect behind them was wiped out."

Miss Romons's face showed

a sweet smile: "Although the other party is just a Huaxia person, the enemy of our enemy is our friend. Being able to weaken the Berwick Family's strength is a great thing for us."

"This Huaxia person interests me greatly. He is very young, very powerful, and very bold," Ramos said. "I just received news that Ye Bufan has arrived in the Federal Capital, and as soon as he got here, he crippled two Grand Elders of the Berwick Family and took away a shop worth two hundred million…"

Miss Romons said, "It seems Denniston has met her match."

Raul said, "That woman is not simple either; she directly adopted a strategy of retreat and did not engage in too intense a conflict with the other party, which is a very smart move."

Ramos said, "Ye Bufan's strength is very formidable. Since he is the enemy of the Berwick Family, we just need to watch. Even if we can't be friends, we must not provoke him under any circumstances…"

Raul nodded: "Grandfather is right; no matter what, we cannot let him become an enemy of our Family…"

As he was speaking, the phone in his pocket suddenly rang. Since he was responsible for the Family's intelligence work, his phone was always on.

Raul looked at the phone number, then pressed the answer button. Soon, his expression became serious, and he abruptly hung up the phone.

"What happened?"

Ramos asked.

"Just now, Pike encountered Ye Bufan and tried to snatch his woman…"

"What? That beast?"

Ramos, who had been calm, suddenly flew into a rage, grabbing the wine glass in front of him and smashing it to the ground.

It was no wonder he was so angry; he had just said not to provoke the other party, yet his Grandson had gotten into a conflict with him, and a very serious one at that.

Raul comforted him, "Grandfather, don't be angry. I'll go bring him back now. This matter will definitely be handled well."

"Go quickly. This matter must be handled properly, and try your best not to have a conflict with Ye Bufan."

"Grandfather, let me go instead."

Miss Romons stood up and said, "I am a woman, and it would be more appropriate for me to handle this matter."

Ramos immediately understood his Granddaughter's meaning. Since they didn't want to conflict with the other party, some concessions would inevitably have to be made.

In this situation, Raul, as the Family heir, was indeed not very suitable; Miss Romons would be more adept at handling it.

He said, "Alright, you go. You have full authority to handle this matter."
