Half an hour later, Jonathan left his lodgings.

His face was a little ugly as he left, and he barely restrained the anger in his heart.

That woman dared to act under the banner of the Astor family after remarrying, who did she think she was?

Britain, can you sit back and relax by hiding in the UK?

Is she underestimating herself too much, Jonathan's heart is like frost.

At this time, Madeleine, who was worried about life in London, did not know that greater trouble was coming.

After the hasty end of her second marriage, unwilling to be ordinary, she began to try to regain the respect and status she deserved with her own abilities.

So, after feeding a certain fat-headed general with her body, she gets a chance.

Ammunition.

Madeleine never imagined that she would one day become an arms dealer.

For God's sake, she just wanted to give it a try, but she didn't expect it to be incredibly successful.

The turbulent times and backward technology in North Africa have made those weapons that have been eliminated and outdated very popular.

With the status of Astor's widow and viscountess, Madeleine has gained a lot of convenience, which makes her earn a lot of money.

The price to pay for these weapons is a few boring nights and an extra expense.

It's just that happiness comes faster and goes faster.

The Germans' retreat and retreat left Madeleine without a source of weapons.

The skirmishes were too conspicuous for the loot to be taken away, and even though she protested many times, the general only tried to calm her emotions.

This made Madeleine annoyed and irritated at the same time, she had already tasted the sweetness of arms.

Almost all the money for nothing, who would want to let it go.

It's just that the current situation can no longer be replicated, and Madeleine has to find another way.

According to the information she stumbled upon, the Allies were planning a large-scale campaign, and perhaps she should look for an opportunity in it.

It's just that Madeleine is clearly not a patient person.

After waiting anxiously for half a month, she began to consider other possibilities.

If you can reach out to the Far East, maybe there is another way out.

It's just that what kind of identity should she use to get in touch?

The friendship between Jonathan and Charlie Lee may be the answer she was looking for.

"Ma'am. The butler appeared beside him and whispered, "A telegram from the United States." ”

"Who is it?" Madeleine wondered.

"Uh... If you read it right, it's signed Astor IV. The butler cautiously looked up at the hostess's back.

Madeleine's body trembled, as if frozen on the couch, and the butler quickly buried her head again.

"Take it. Taking a deep breath, Madeleine laughed at herself and thought, 'Why should I be nervous, she's not the same person she used to be.' ’

The telegram was quickly handed into her hands, and Madeleine was natural on the surface, but her trembling hands revealed the tension in her heart.

When she opened the telegram and read it carefully, her face became extremely exciting.

Swallowing the anger and shame in her heart to read the last word, Madeleine jumped to her feet and tore the telegram to shreds in a fit of rage.

"Damn Jonathan, wild seed, vile bastard, if it weren't for me, he'd still be begging in the dirty slums, this bastard ......"

The screaming roar didn't last long, and Madeleine sat back down breathlessly, and after a moment said, "Give it back to him... This is England, and I am the honorable viscountess of the British Empire, and if he wants to do something, be prepared to pay the price. ”

"Yes. The butler left with her message.

The telegram was quickly sent, but Madeleine became anxious.

That damn bastard dared to threaten himself, how dare he do that, he was his mother, even if it was just a stepmother.

In fact, Jonathan's guts are a lot, and this time it was also beyond Madeleine's expectations.

The day after she sent the telegram, Her Excellency the General, who was her patron, appeared at the estate.

On that day, the servants heard a violent quarrel breaking out in the living room from outside.

Soon the general shook his hand and left, and judging by his pace and expression, the two parted unhappily.

Followed by the suppression of Madeleine's investment in the UK, she couldn't even find out who the other party was.

As a courtesan, Madeleine naturally refused to admit defeat, and she began to look for the rich and high-ranking officials who were close to her in the past.

But she was greeted by indifferent faces: "The master is not here, Madame Madeleine, please come back another day." ”

"The master commanded that no one should be seen in the next few days. ”

"The master is sick, ma'am, please go back!"

"The host ......"

Boom.

The precious vase, which was smashed to pieces and valued at £8,000, was one of Madeleine's favourite collections.

But now it is shattered to pieces, and its owner, who once cherished it, is now not even interested in looking at it.

Compared to the predicament and losses she is facing now, a small collection is nothing.

"Is he going to kill them all?" said Madeleine, gritting her teeth, sitting in the empty room.

What made her feel even more desperate was that she thought she was enough to resist the other party, and the solid relationship and power disappeared with a gentle wave of the other party's hand.

All efforts were in vain, and she was like a funny clown, dying on the edge of an invincible cliff.

How could she have imagined with her limited knowledge that now the entire Allies are not only militarily dependent on the United States.

Business is more centered on the United States, and if you want to ensure your profits in the United States, it is not wise to annoy the Astor family.

As one of the important members of the Lee Consortium, the Astor family no longer has the glory it once had.

But in terms of wealth, Jonathan, who is far beyond his peak, and Jonathan, who controls Express and can directly influence rich countries, is not a small role that can be ignored.

Within the Lee consortium, Astor has become a faint independent force, with its own influence and determination.

Although it is not comparable to other consortium members in terms of industrial magnitude, it is still regarded as a behemoth in the outside world.

Besides, who knows who his actions represent?

Li Zitao didn't mind this misunderstanding, in fact, he would love to see people think so.

It's also time to teach that self-righteous woman a lesson, stealing business with skunks, doesn't she understand what that means?

If it weren't for her being Aster's former widow, Li Zitao would be concerned about the face of the Astor family.

As long as he simply expresses his dissatisfaction with the outside world, he doesn't need to do it himself, and someone will diligently clear the dust that is an eyesore for him.

For example, a stupid woman like Madeleine who is self-righteous and simple-minded.

One-third of the Allied countries' arms are supplied by his own industries, which in turn have the most advanced technology in the world.

Politicians and generals within the allies know better than anyone what this represents.
