Before Chen Meng’er could explain her plan to her grandfather and the others in detail, the phone in the manor rang. Elder Liu picked it up. It was a call from Arthur.
When Chen Meng’er found out that it was a call from Arthur, she was quite puzzled. It was already so late. What urgent matter did Arthur have?
However, Chen Meng’er really guessed it. Arthur called. It was really an urgent matter. He was prepared to hand over the Buyano family to Yuwen Jing. He was prepared to retire early.
Arthur had this thought for a long time. In fact, when he learned that his wife had passed away, his heart for power had faded. At that time, if it weren’t for his young son supporting him, he would have probably chosen to leave with his wife.
All these years, he had been doing his best to nurture his son, and his son had lived up to his expectations. He had always been outstanding, much more outstanding than he was back then. Arthur had always known that his son was more suitable for the position of head of the Buyano family than he was. He also knew that his son was born to stand at the top of the power hierarchy.
When Arthur returned from the country this time, he wanted to pass the position of family head to his son, Yuwen Jing. However, the matter of the Hill family’s engagement had dragged on until now.
Elder Liu Hung up the phone. His face didn’t look good. Chen Meng’er, Zhuge Yu, and the others looked at Elder Liu, waiting for Elder Liu to give them an answer.
“Meng’er’s plan has to be suspended for a while. There’s a change in the plan,” Elder Liu said in a deep voice, “What’s going on with this Arthur? Why did he make such a decision at this time?” After Elder Liu heard Arthur’s words on the other end of the phone, he felt quite uncomfortable in his heart.
“Grandpa, what’s wrong? What did Uncle Arthur say?” Chen Meng’er was quite curious.
“Humph, your uncle Arthur invited us to participate in the inheritance ceremony of the family head of the Buyano family tomorrow.” Elder Liu said and snorted coldly.
The few people present were all shrewd people. How could they not know what this meant?
Zhuge Yu also said with an expression of disapproval, “What is Arthur thinking? The Hill family has always been holding onto the matter of the engagement between the two families. Now, it’s great that this engagement hasn’t been canceled yet. He actually used this trick to make Yuwen Jing become the head of the family. Isn’t this obvious? It will make the Hill family even more unwilling to give up the engagement?”
“Is that kid playing with us?” Fatty looked like he was going to fight with Arthur.
“Grandpa, uncles, don’t be angry. I don’t think Uncle Arthur is such an impulsive person. He probably has his own plans.” Chen Meng’er looked at her grandpa and the other unsightly faces; she quickly calmed them down. “Since Uncle Arthur invited us to participate in this inheritance ceremony, let’s go. We can see what Uncle Arthur is preparing to do.”
“Okay. Listen to Meng’er.” Elder Liu, who doted on his granddaughter without principles, was relieved by Chen Meng’er’s smooth movements.
In fact, when Chen Meng’er heard Arthur’s decision, her thoughts were the same as her grandfather’s. She was very uncomfortable. It was not obvious that she wanted the Hill family to hold onto the engagement tightly. However, she believed in Yuwen Jing. She believed that Yuwen Jing would not let such a thing happen.
Before she went to bed, Chen Meng’er thought to herself that if Yuwen Jing disappointed her tomorrow, she would be prepared to deal with the Kronbo family and the Hill family and return to the country. She would never bother with Yuwen Jing again.
That night, Chen Meng’er, Elder Liu, and the others had a good night’s sleep. However, many people in the upper class of British society did not sleep at all. They had all received news from the Buyano family that the family head of the Buyano family was going to be replaced.
