Edge of the Apocalypse

Old Kate looked at her domineering granddaughter with a headache. Among the children of the third generation family, the granddaughter Adele is undoubtedly the most dazzling. Whether it is source power, combat skills, ability to manage the family, etc., they are all outstanding in the third generation. To talk about the flaws, it is probably her wild horse-like temperament and the fact that she is a woman.

If Adele were a boy, old Kate would desperately nominate her as the first in line. But she is not after all, and old Kate also admitted that it is not that women are necessarily inferior to men. But it is also undeniable that they are always overwhelmed in some places. It has nothing to do with ability, but is limited by the issue of gender.

In the history of the Federation for more than 400 years, there have also been several female presidents. However, these female presidents usually have short term of office, and they often pass through the political circles like a meteor, leaving behind their brilliant and eye-catching strokes, and then disappear.

So in old Kate's heart, he loved Adele very much. But there is one thing, even if the heirs in the front row are insufficient, Adele will not be allowed to take charge of the family. In the end, Adele's future will stop at the family elder, which is predictable.

As for Jas and his brothers, the two children are not as unbearable as Adele said. It's just that Adele's light is so dazzling that the two stars of them dim.

In the evaluation of the old Kate, either of the two took over the position of patriarch. Even if he can't make progress, he is more than conservative.

Old Kate gave a light cough and said, "Alright, Adele, let's talk about where your money went. That's your personal money, but the amount is too big, I have to ask."

"It's nothing, Grandpa, I took them to bet." Adele said lightly.

"Bet?" Old Kate raised his eyebrows: "Death ring? Who did you vote for?"

"That number 1." Adele said triumphantly: "I have a hunch that I will make a fortune."

"Number 1?" Jas and his brother glanced at each other and laughed: "Adele, your head isn't broken, right? Who doesn't know, in the past death rings, the number one guy usually died very quickly."

"That's all previous years!" Adele raised his head, it is not difficult to look at her elder brother: "You would say that, it means that you have no investment vision and no aggressive guts. My dear brother, maybe you have to Pay attention to the news. As of yesterday, that number 1 was still alive and had killed six people! Of course, if it were you, you would definitely not be able to kill one."

"You!" Jas stood up, a burgundy color on his face.

Adele said lazily: "Besides, you haven't heard that Mr. Horn also made a heavy bet on this number 1. Isn't Mr. Horn's head also broken?"

Juston couldn't say a word.

"Jace, sit down." Old Kate said solemnly, and said, "The whole of Babylon knows about Horn's betting. But Adele, you see, in addition to the 10 million you voted without permission not long ago, Do you see anyone putting a heavy bet on this teenager? I think your approach is too risky."

"Grandpa, aren't you a friend of Mr. Horne?" Adele asked, "Did you see him doing any loss-making business during the years when you knew him? I have studied the life of Mr. Horne. , Every decision he makes, every transaction is almost guaranteed."

"If Horn is as good as you said, ten years ago, Berncord would not have slipped from the ranking of the family to the celebrity." Adele's other brother Ted said.

"Oh, it seems that you have also studied Mr. Horn's deeds." Adele raised an eyebrow.

Ted straightened his chest and said, "Grandpa always said that whether it is our enemy or allies, we must understand every detail of them. It's nothing, I just do what Grandpa said."

"Really obedient puppy." Adele nodded.

"What are you talking about!" Ted immediately changed color. Their sister has this ability and can always light them up like a gunpowder barrel with a sentence or two.

Adele sat on the sofa and ignored Ted’s anger. She shrugged and said, “You’re not deaf, can’t you hear me? Okay, I don’t want to entangle you on this issue. Listen, Under the series of inconspicuous tactics of the Alexander family, Mr. Horn was not defeated, but he did not fight at all. During that time, he was depressed and ignored the provocations of the Alexander family at all, which caused the ranking to slip. But even so, Berncord’s back garden is still full of flowers. None of their five colonial stars has fallen, and a dozen or so business chains are still in operation, and family profits continue to rise by a steady 5 percentage points every year."

"Beskard only lost their reputation, not their strength! Their heritage has not been affected at all!" Adele sat up a little bit: "Also, according to my observations. In recent years, Beskod has invested more budget in family force. This budget has been gradually increasing since five years ago. What does this mean, my dear brother? It means that Mr. Horn is ready to do something, Besko De will once again show its eloquence to all those who despise it in Babylon. In the foreseeable next few years, this family will surely be in an upswing period. It is very likely that Beth Kod will return to the family, and even, The sword refers to the rich!"

Not to mention the brothers Jas and Ted, even the old Kate was deeply shocked by Adele's prediction. After the old Kate adjusted his mood, he said: "But all this is just your guess."

"Of course, if I have full confidence, then I am a prophet, grandpa." Adele waved his hand: "But for me, this is enough. Don't say that we and Bethkod are friends, even if I just exchanged 10 million for the good intentions of a family who might be stationed in a wealthy family. I also think this business has been done. Grandpa, don’t you think our Mosen family stayed in the celebrities for too long? It’s time to move. ."

Old Kate's eyes lit up immediately, and he nodded and said: "It's indeed too long. It has been 127 years since our Morsen family started in business and now become a famous celebrity!"

"Yes, if at this time, we hold on to Bethkod, who is about to rush to Yunxiao's rocket. Forget the rich, it shouldn't be difficult to mix with a family." Adele said here, her body moved forward. He said: "And grandpa, aren't you interested in Mr. Horn's sudden heavy shot? In fact, I know a little bit of inside information."

Old Kate looked at the granddaughter immediately.

Adele deliberately glanced at her two elder brothers and said with a smile: "But I want to just tell you about this. It's better for outsiders to know less about it."

Jas and Ted suddenly exploded, and the two got up in anger, their eyes widened, and their expressions were ferocious as if they were about to swallow Adele alive. It was Adele who pretended to look at Kate pitifully, and God knew that with her means, even if Jas and Ted joined forces, there was nothing to do with her.

Old Kate shook his head secretly, waved and said, "You two go out first."

"grandfather!"

Jas's chest rises and falls, and he wants to say something. Ted shook his head and pulled him out of the door. So dying, Adele added: "By the way, help us close the door."

After the two angrily heirs left, Adele also put on a serious expression: "Shortly after the youngsters on the surface arrived in Babylon, Mr. Horn used his own channel to get the man named Allen in the training building. Juvenile blood. A few days later, he publicly placed a heavy bet on this teenager. Grandpa, don't you think there is any connection in this?"

"Also, we all know what happened to the Beskard's house ten years ago. If these two things are linked together, Mr. Horn's actions will have the answer."

Old Kate said silently, "You mean, that kid is Horn's grandson, Lanni's son?"

Adele nodded and said, "I can't think of a more reasonable explanation."

Old Kate showed a thoughtful expression. Ten years ago, something big happened on Babylon. But this matter was limited to the circle of nobles, that is Horn's daughter Lanni eloped with a surface man. This was a shame among the nobles, and it was a blow to Bethkod's reputation, and it also depressed Horn.

Everyone knows how much Horne loves this daughter, and similarly, Horne will fight hard for Lannie. The family powerhouse master was dispatched to hunt down the madman who dared to peek at his treasure, but Lanni still chose that man. The departure of his daughter caused Horn to be hit hard and his will was depressed, and only then did Alexander take advantage of it to enter.

In the end, ~www.readwn.com~ Beskode squeezed the ranking of the family and fell into the ranks of the famous.

If you count time, Adele's inference is not impossible. Especially taking blood and betting, this is even more important.

Old Kate raised his head and said, "In other words, Horn is going to take back his grandson."

"No, to be precise, it is the person in charge of the future who took back Beskod." Adele corrected: "Grandpa, don't forget, Beskod is facing an embarrassing situation with no successor. After Horn, his None of the sons can be worthy of the important task. As for the third-generation heir, he is as weak as my idiot eldest brother... Oh, it turned out to be my mistake. In short, Mr. Horn is likely to train this grandson as a continuation person. If he can survive the death ring."

"In that case, we also have to be prepared." Lao Kai headed out.

"Don't worry about this, I have already thought about it." Adele stood up, raised her eyebrows and said, "As long as Mr. Horn adds the boy named Allen to the family heir sequence, grandpa you will marry me. Let him. With my looks and methods, I dare to guarantee that Mr. Horn will not find a good candidate. Besides, he can still get the help of our Mosen family. You must know that in the resources of a person in power, The help from the wife's clan is also a force that cannot be ignored, especially considering that kid's future situation, Mr. Horn will definitely not refuse."

Old Kate nodded again, if Horn added Allen to the heir sequence. Because Allen did not grow up in the family, it is no exaggeration to say that he will be enemies on all sides by then. At this time, if the Mosen family were to help him, then Alan's road to the power would be much smoother, and this is what Horne would like to see. What's more, in this way, Adele can be properly removed from the family heir sequence. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone!
