In the spacious hall, the previous items have been removed at this moment,

with two huge tables in the middle and rows of wooden chairs on either side.

On the two sides of the table are sitting on the two sides of the five major

chambers of commerce, on one side are the houses of Tissifone, Nissos, and

Anemie, and on the other side are the houses of Callites and Hellis.

"The Hollis family does not recognize your terms." Mei Lu said after reading

the terms in her hand.

The three companies jointly demanded that the Hollis family and Calides

completely withdraw from Hopelander and cede nearly half of the property under

their own name.

The negotiation was deadlocked from the beginning.

No matter how you look at it, the terms proposed by Tissifone, Nissos, Aniemi,

and the three are completely insincere.

Mei Lu's reaction didn't seem to surprise the three opposing companies. This

was what they expected.

"Miss May Lu did not agree with you yourself, or did the Holliss disagree"

Wick asked.

"Does it make any difference?" Mei Lu frowned.

"Sorry, what I want to say is that the Holliss actually agreed to this

matter." Noyce said, tapping the table with his stout fingers.

"How..." Before Mei Lu finished speaking, she suddenly saw a young man

surrounded by people walking out, her brother Bell.

The boy seemed a little nervous, but the elders beside him spoke.

"Mei Lu, as a girl, you are not suitable for leading the Helliss family." This

is the former Vito, the uncle of Mei Lu.

There are many people around him who are the elders of the Hollis family, that

is, the people who were forced to surrender power and property before. Most of

them are Mei Lu's uncles.

Mei Lu looked at this group of people, not moved, but directed her gaze at her

brother Bell.

"Bell, why are you here today? Shouldn't you stay at home?"

Bell seemed a little afraid to look at his sister, and said cautiously.

"Uncle Vito asked me to come...Uncles think that as a boy, I need to be

stronger, so...in order to protect my sister."

"My sister has been very tired every day since she became the owner of the

family, she slept very late, and she often shed tears secretly. I know all

this."

As he spoke, his tone became smoother.

"I hope my sister can rest and live well without being so tired and anxious

every day."

"So, do you think?" Mei Lu looked at her younger brother, so familiar, yet so

strange.

"I want to be a man, instead of hiding behind my sister. I want to be the

owner of the family. I also want to make a career by myself." When he said

this, his eyes showed envy.

"That's it." Mei Lu lowered her head.

"Does father know?"

"Well, my father agreed." Bell nodded happily.

There was a brief silence in the hall.

After a long time, Noyce continued to speak.

"Miss Mei Lu don't have to worry, we will not hold you accountable, you can

still live freely overseas in the future."

"Is this your kindness?"

Mei Lu raised her head, her eyes flushed a little.

Noyce looked at the girl in front of her and sighed slightly.

"I also watched you grow up. Feng Na and you have been friends for many years.

You don't have to worry about your future self."

"So, no one asked my opinion, so did you agree?"

Meilu turned her head and looked at Gerald beside her. This cousin seemed a

little guilty and did not dare to face Meilu's gaze. He really believed that

this would be good for Meilu and would keep her away from this dangerous

vortex. Get stable happiness.

Gerard still remembers the little sister she held when her aunt came to their

house when she was a child. She had a nice smile and held a red fruit in her

hand and handed it to herself.

Then the aunt said, "This is Brother Gerd, come on, Mei Lu, call brother."

The little girl just learned to speak sweetly and called out "Brother Gerald

is good~", and since then he has liked this well-behaved sister.

After several years, he followed his parents to the host’s house. At that

time, there were many guests and many children. Meilu walked down the stairs

wearing a skirt and saw that she called out "Brother Gerd."

It turns out that she still remembers herself, and a strange emotion rises in

her heart, like a weed on the hillside that no one cares about, for the first

time she has been seen from thousands of people.

Gerard was very naughty when he was young. His parents scolded him, his elders

misunderstood him, and children of his age rejected him.

But Mei Lu's call, like a small stone, fell in her heart, and the ripples of

water slowly spread all over her body.

It turned out that some people remember me.

Gerald answered softly. "Sorry, but I sincerely hope that you will be safe and

happy in the future."

"But, that's just what you think of happiness."

Mei Lu seemed to want to say something, but still could not speak, her left

hand gripped the skirt under her tightly, and finally dropped her eyelashes in

loss.

Adrienne, who was across from him, watched Meilu give in, smiled and continued

to speak.

"As for the Calites family, I don't think I need to ask, because Miss Lacey

sitting in front of me is not Angus' daughter."

As he spoke, bursts of exclamation sounded from the seats next to him, and

everyone turned their eyes to the calm and confident girl.

"Angus's daughter, Elaine, has passed away, and you, Miss Lacey, are just a

fake." Then a more powerful message spread in the hall.

"What, that Lexi actually faked it."

"Well, how could Angus's daughter be so beautiful."

"Haha, I would like to know how she ended up."

Edley also sighed in his heart. If it hadn't been learned from Daniel, it

would have been unexpected that Serres and Chelsea would comfortably assist a

stranger, and declared that Lacey was Angus' heir.

The people around pointed and pointed, and even the guards behind him were a

little shaken.

As the voice fell, there was a burst of discussion, ridicule, and sarcasm

around everyone. Everyone had some gloomy psychology. Watching the high

character fall, it seemed to get a special pleasure, even if it had nothing to

do with them. .

At this time, a messenger held up the document, stepped into the hall, and

declared loudly:

"Speak to all the Hoplander Chambers of Commerce and industry branches. The

Verga Business Alliance Industry Association Headquarters has issued an

official document. The Tisifone family will take full control of Hoplander,

become the representative of the region and the plenipotentiary representative

of the industry association, and withdraw the card. The seat of the Rites

family in the trade association is no longer included in one of the 26 seats."

"In view of the death of the former Chamber of Commerce President Angus and

his descendants, Calides will be taken over by the trade association with full

authority."

As the voice fell, there was an uproar in the hall.

"This decision of the league violated the agreement it had made." Chelsea's

cold voice came from behind Lorrain Hill.

"Does this mean that the headquarters of the guild is no longer the noble

union that pursued justice and trustworthiness?"

She continued to speak, which also triggered some discussions. This kind of

decision is indeed abnormal.

"The orders of the guild headquarters cannot be disobeyed." Wick spoke again.

"But we Calites will not succumb. In our hearts, Miss Lacey is still the most

orthodox heir to the Chamber of Commerce."

"And you are the killers who killed Angus." Following Chelsea's words, several

of Calites' guards drew their swords and stood in front of Lorrain Hill to

protect them.

"That seems to be out of talk."

As Wick’s voice fell, a team of black-clad soldiers poured into the hall from

the side door. They were holding silver-white muskets in their hands. They

were lined up neatly with the sound of armor and footsteps. They stood behind

Edley and the others. The gun body was flattened and the muzzles were pointed

at Lorrain Hill and others.

"You guys..." Mrs. Felia stood up, but Master Helang, who was sitting next to

her, took the lead and stopped in front of her.

"Mrs. Filia, please don't get angry. Emenas has a rule that teachers and

ungraded students shall not interfere in the internal affairs of other

organizations and the country."

Looking at the gray-bearded old man, several ** of light gradually floated

around Mrs. Felia, among which the brilliance flowed and disappeared.

"It seems that this old bone of mine is going to move." He Lang was not

surprised, took the long and thin sword handed by the person next to him, and

then pulled a sword flower.

"Last time I competed with you, it was twenty years ago. I was still very

young." The old man gradually exuded a mountain-like aura, and white smoke

began to emerge around the sword. All are slightly distorted.

And at this moment of tense confrontation, other people finally reacted, panic

cry sounded in the hall, and then frantically rushed out.

And the armed forces of the two chambers of commerce facing off outside the

mansion also changed suddenly. The Hellis family suddenly retreated, leaving

the Calites family alone with the other three to confront each other, and when

they sensed that they were not facing the Calites guards, they also began to

shrink in an emergency.

The bells in the city rang again, the other three teams attacked again, the

Hollis house was silent, and the Tissifune house, Nissos, and Anemii once

again joined forces to advance towards Calites. .

Seven or eight blue steel golems stood in the city and launched a fiery pillar

of fire, igniting the Carrites fleet that was about to fire, and a can of

kerosene was thrown from Nissos’ home and landed on the sea, setting the

harbor at night. Burned into a sea of flames.

screaming, the sound of fighting once again sounded everywhere in the city.

"Fire!"

Some warships far away from the harbour smashed artillery shells at Nissos’

home ~www.mtlnovel.com~, causing a loud noise. Some oil tanks that had not had

time to launch exploded on the spot, and the entire chamber of commerce was

immersed in a sea of flames.

But this time, the three coalition forces did not back down, and they still

marched towards Calites, and one by one long ladders were erected.

Without the assistance of the Hellis family, most of the fleet was caught in

flames, and the Calitis Chamber of Commerce seemed to be at stake.

boom--

In the negotiating mansion, the entire roof was lifted, and countless bricks

and tiles were scattered from the sky like a torrential rain, attracting

countless people to dodge everywhere.

In the spacious hall, the violent air flow directly penetrates all obstacles,

whether it is windows, beams, tables and chairs, as if swept away by a dragon,

directly dissipating on the sea and sky.

There was no light in the dark hall for a long time, and the cold silver

moonlight swayed down from the sky, shining into this messy and ruined hall.

Everyone in the hall was stumbling, and most of them were suppressed by

debris. The former musketeers were also scattered everywhere, and some of them

were missing.

Noyce climbed up from under the overwhelming stone pillar with difficulty, and

looked at the girl in the middle of the hall.

The long silver hair blown by the sea breeze gleams and dances in the

moonlight. The dresses on his body are undamaged. The strands of air flow

around his sides, and there seems to be a twinkling of stars in his eyes,

which is unique and independent.

In the entire strait outside Hopeland, a violent storm began to take shape,

and countless tides were swept up, rising to the sky, like a galaxy in the

sky, directly extinguishing the fire in the harbor.

"Is this the result you want." She finally responded to the enemies who used

conspiracy and tricks.
