Chapter 25 Five days and three days

Five days passed quickly, and the family meeting in Harrusburg was not held as scheduled. When Zhou Ming Caitlin and Louise came to the castle, they were told that since Andre was not in the castle, today's family meeting was cancelled. Please come again in three days. Chinese website √√.

When he heard this news, someone immediately shouted and mocked: "Hey! Has our noble Earl Andre gone to handle his funeral? Five days are not enough for him to prepare. I think he wants to choose a beautiful cemetery, or find twelve beautiful nuns to accompany him, and then ask the Cardinal to pray for him, but this is a beautiful dream that God cannot describe!"

Some people also bluntly said: "What dream? I think he was afraid at all! He knew that he had no chance of winning against Princess Louise and Caitlin, so he hid like an ostrich! He was a timid coward. He had no courage to face us. He could only hide in the sewer like a mouse, with a disgusting stench all over his body. When we glared at him, he would tremble all over, haha!"

After a merciless mockery and contempt, the others laughed, and some people accused him: "I don't care what he is preparing for, but why didn't this hateful bastard notify us in advance? Instead, we will ask the butler to say here, is this the attitude that a heir should have? If this idiot who is untrustworthy and unrespectful, if he really gives him inheritance, it will definitely be a disaster in Harrusburg!"

Faced with the surging ridicule and accusations, even those who supported Andre didn't know what to say. Ifaman opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he still said nothing, because Andre didn't even tell him, which made him not know how to cleanse him.

Even Efaman was wondering if he should go to Kaitlyn to apologize, at least he is familiar with him. You know, he is the person who supports Andre the most, but he has not received any news yet. In these eight days, he has also tried to contact Andre, but he was unable to find anyone at all, which made him panic.

But the most painful thing is the housekeeper who was sent by Andre to inform the news, because he was on the front line to face everyone's accusations and saliva.

Since they were all facing nobles in the family, even Andre had to worry about the members of their faces, the butler had to accompany him to explain and apologize over and over again, but God knew how vicious he had cursed Andre in his heart.

Neither Zhou Ming nor Louise went to the front, nor did they participate in this verbal battle against the innocent old housekeeper. Louise was esteemed as a royal family, while Zhou Ming was thinking about things.

"What do you think about this situation?" Louise asked.

Caitlin looked at Zhou Ming, and Zhou Ming shook his head and said, "It's completely clueless. Maybe Andre is preparing something, but there is a change that he can't control himself, so he has to continue postponing the meeting."

"So you think this would be a very bad news, and it might even directly threaten Caitlyn's inheritance power, so that she would not be as happy as those idiots, right?" Louise asked again.

Zhou Ming shrugged meaninglessly: "To be honest, I really hope this is because Andrei was not prepared at all."

Zhou Ming only said half of his words, but the meaning was clearer. Andrei's unpreparedness was indeed fortunate for them, but they also understood more that Andrei, who had spent half his life finally reaching this point, could not have been like this. Then the result was the most regrettable. Andrei was preparing for a big thing, perhaps to be able to end the dispute over inheritance rights directly.

Louise hesitated for a while before asking, “If that’s the case, what should we do?”

Zhou Ming thought about this and asked her back: "What Caitlin and I can do is very limited. It mainly depends on how much support you and the royal family behind you can give."

Louise was very surprised at this answer. She didn't understand why Zhou Ming asked this, especially when he didn't know what Andre would do, or he had guessed it, but because of some uncertain reasons, he didn't say it out loud. If this is true, what would his so-called support be like?

Thinking of this, Louise was silent. She didn't dare to give an answer. She suddenly felt very regretful. She shouldn't have told Zhou Ming and Caitlin about the meeting, so that the matter would be deviated from her control. But if she didn't tell them, the meeting would have ended with cheers supporting Andre, and this was not the result she wanted.

Louise's heart was extremely entangled...

In the end, Louise was unable to give Zhou Ming an answer, but Zhou Ming did not expect her to give any answer, or the royal family behind her could not give an answer before Andre's plan came out.

Zhou Ming and Caitlin returned to the hotel room, and Caitlin said to Zhou Ming: "Do you have a bad premonition?"

Zhou Ming nodded, Caitlin was not surprised by the answer, and then said: "So should we go to Paris again? We will use quantum funds to put more pressure on Fuger Bank?"

"If this is useful, I will not hesitate. The key to the problem now is that doing so will not bring us any advantages." Zhou Ming said, "And Fuger Bank is the core of the Harrusburg family no matter what. We can attack Fuger Bank to attack Andre's prestige, but we cannot go too far. After all, those who are cursing at the door today are shareholders of Fuger Bank."

At the end of the talk, Zhou Ming sighed: "Now before we can think of a better solution, we can only wait patiently. I firmly believe that there is no problem in this world that cannot be solved, only brains that are unwilling to start!"

...

Soon, three days later, Zhou Ming and Caitlin came to Harrusburg again. This time, the butler of the castle did not stop him at the door, but when they entered the hall, Andre still did not show up, and even the butler did not inform the meeting to come with Andre. This made many family members make trouble again.

"This damn Andre, we have been waiting for five days and three days now. When will he let us wait? Could it be that he really fulfilled our curse and went to hell? Then this is great news!"

There is no shortage of speculators. When they saw that there was such a big situation with Andre, they immediately thought of Louise and Caitlin, and someone immediately came over.

"Actually, from the beginning, we did not think that Andre was a qualified heir. His true bloodline was still in the line of Grand Duke Ferdinand. As the Grand Duke's daughter, Caitlin, you are of course the most qualified person to inherit the family. We also saw your courage and wisdom at the meeting. These are essential conditions for the heirs! Or you will hold this meeting now. As the heir, you need to swear sovereignty here!"

Some people even played the card of pain: "His Royal Highness Caitlin, we are extremely sad about your father's affairs. In fact, we all want to help him, but Andre has been obstructing him in the middle, and we have no choice at all! But now that we have the opportunity to choose, we will make the most correct choice according to God's will!"

Faced with these speculators and their poor acting skills, Zhou Ming and Caitlin could only deal with it with a wry smile, but they didn't need to deal with it for long, because it took only half an hour, and the housekeeper finally said loudly: "Earl Andre is here!"

This voice made the hall quiet suddenly. Everyone subconsciously looked at the door, and saw Andre walking in from the door. He looked around the entire hall and said with a smile: "Before I came in, I heard the noise in the hall. Why did you take an eight-day holiday? So you were all at a loss. Have you forgotten who is the owner of this castle?"

Andre's last words made many people tremble subconsciously. The speculators who had just congratulated Caitlin even lowered their heads and did not dare to look at him again.

Andre was very satisfied with the effect he had caused. It seemed that although he was slapped by Zhou Ming in the face, his prestige still existed, which made him more confident. He then said: "I know that among you bastards, there must be someone who is praying that I can't come. Now I obviously disappointed these people. Today I not only came here, but I also want you to testify to me about how I inherited the Harrusburg family!"

A declaration made the hall suddenly in an uproar. Everyone was wondering why Andrey said that. Zhou Ming also frowned. Louise looked back at Zhou Ming. It seemed that the thing they were most worried about was to have a child.

Andre suddenly grinned: "I know, you are not convinced by what I say, so I can tell you with practical actions that this is the truth. But before that, I need everyone to come out with me to welcome a distinguished guest, because this is my most important testimony!"

After Andrey finished speaking, he turned around and left without saying a word. The situation stunned everyone in the hall. They looked at each other and no one knew what to do.

The first person to react was Ifaman, Andre's most important supporter shouted: "I believe that Count Andre would never be just playing with mud by the lotus pond in the past eight days. He must have done something surprising enough. I have always believed that he was the one who could change the Harrusburg family. So now that he has said that he has a distinguished guest, I will go out to welcome this distinguished guest with him!"

After Efaman said that, he followed Andre out, and after Efaman, other Andre's supporters also followed him out.

The other speculators had no position at all, but simply thought that they would fall to the other side. Now that Andre had put this in a situation, he would go out and take a look without any loss. It's amazing that if it doesn't work there, he would come back to Caitlin. Anyway, as a fence-bearer, his skin is the most useless thing.

When the people in the hall went out one by one, the only ones left were Zhou Ming Caitlin and Louise.

"Zhou Ming, what do you think about the current situation?" Louise asked.

Zhou Ming frowned and said, "My intuition tells me that Andre should have made a big move. He doesn't want to fight with us in the meeting. He wants to determine the whole situation at one time."

He raised his head and looked at the door: "It seems that the identity of the person he invited is not simple!"
