Chapter 834: Rivalry!
Chapter 834: Rivalry! (Page 1/1)
Cyril stood at the door of the blacksmith shop with a smug face, looking at the team that was carefully checking the bills in the blacksmith shop and checking the remaining arrears, and felt that he had won the battle.
Regardless of his abilities, Jeffrey had no choice but to let him inherit the Morton family.
He was destined to be the winner from the start, because he knew Jeffrey, his rigid and somewhat arrogant father, and he would never hand over the empire he had built to a woman to inherit, just as he had mocked Warren Buffett Sr. countless times, and he would never allow himself to become like that.
Thinking of this, the smile on Cyril's face grew, and he seemed to have seen what his future would look like in the city of chaos.
Kerry stood aside with a shy smile, his eyes were also shining, he had been in this blacksmith shop for half his life, and he had never been able to get any chance of promotion, and he didn't bother to take care of the blacksmith shop on weekdays, so Kerry's blacksmith shop would go to the point of loss step by step.
But now it's different, he's holding Cyril's thigh.
When he becomes the ruler of the Morton family in the future, or even the ruler of the Aden Chamber of Commerce, he will definitely be able to ascend to heaven, no longer need to guard a blacksmith shop, and become the real upper class of the chaotic city.
The employees of the blacksmith shop looked also a little excited, they didn't know much about the duel, but they knew that the business of the blacksmith shop was unexpectedly good this month, the salary must be indispensable, and they could take three days off from tomorrow, and they could also receive a big red envelope, which was enough to make them happy all day.
Half an hour later.
The review team sealed the ledger, locked it in an iron box, and walked out of the blacksmith shop one by one.
The middle-aged man in the black coat in the leader looked at Cyril and said, "Young Master Cyril, the bill has been reviewed, now please return to the manor with us, where the master will announce the results of this competition." ”
"Then what are you waiting for, hurry up!" Cyril said with a smile, and walked towards the ornate carriage beside him, stepping on the kneeling Kerry and getting into the carriage.
The censors got into two separate carriages and headed for Moreton Manor.
Almost at about the same time, the censors in the Dailan fabric shop also walked out of the store, although everyone's faces remained calm, but their eyes could not hide the shock.
The middle-aged man in the lead stepped forward and said respectfully, "Miss Gloria, please go back to the manor with us, where the president will announce the results of this competition." ”
The eyes of the censors who looked at Gloria also changed a little, and they were more in awe.
Gloria smiled and nodded, "Okay, you first, please." ”
After the censors got into the carriage, Gloria turned to look at Mars who was standing aside and said, "Mars, you can also go to the manor with me." ”
Mars shook his head and said, "I don't think it's time yet, so go ahead, miss." ”
Gloria looked at Mars, thought for a moment, smiled and nodded, "I think it's going to be soon." ”
Mars also had a smile on his face.
The three carriages pulled away from Teyrne and headed for Moulton Manor.
……
The halls of Moulton Manor, which will be especially lively.
Old lady Dennis sat in front of her, her eyes closed, her thin cheeks looking a little sharp-mouthed, and she was obviously not an easy old lady to get close to.
Jeffrey's third daughter, Aurora, was hunched in a chair with her legs crossed, her loose clothes still couldn't hide her skeleton-like figure, her sunken eye sockets looked a little scary, her gray hair had fallen out a lot, and she looked like an old lady with a playful smile on her face.
Cyril's twin daughters, dressed in gorgeous dresses, looked at the Lance family sitting across from them, their faces full of schadenfreude.
"What else is there to compare this, how could my father lose to a girl who hasn't even touched the money." Hernie said with some disdain.
"It's just that I don't think my grandfather should have done this competition, and the result won't be any surprise anyway, but it will make others laugh." Hetty chimed in.
"Shhh Aviva, who was sitting next to them and was well-maintained, said, but there was no scolding on her face, and she also had a smug smile.
The Lance family sat on the chair opposite, Lance held a book in his hand, looked at it calmly, and did not seem to hear the words of the crowd.
Mickey, on the other hand, glared at Hetty and Hernie with some indignation, and tried to speak out several times, but Mrs. Debra's hand kept gently holding his wrist, and constantly signaled him with her eyes not to be impulsive.
Debra didn't have any resentment on her face, but a smile of relief, and she thought silently in her heart: "Even if you fail, it will be a very good experience for Gloria, the child has grown up, and there is no longer a need to feel inferior to himself and close himself off." ”
"The master has arrived."
Outside, the butler's voice was heard.
Hetty and Herni laughed all of a sudden, and sat on the chair obediently, although they looked mediocre, but they also looked a little bit like a lady.
And Aurora, who was slumped in the chair, also sat up straight all of a sudden, and a trace of brilliance burst out in her eyes, as if she was a few years younger all of a sudden, but there was a little fear in her eyes.
Lance put down the book in his hand and sat down.
Mikey straightened his chest and sat upright in his chair, not daring to move.
Old Lady Denise opened her eyes.
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became oppressive and tense.
Jeffrey walked in slowly from the doorway, first glanced at Lance, then paused on Mickey's body for a moment, directly skipped Hetty and Herney, swept over the undisguised disgust in Aurora's eyes, and walked straight to the first place and sat down.
Hetty and Hernie, who were ignored, gave Mikey a vicious look, but they didn't dare to say anything.
The hall was quiet, everyone dared not make a sound, and the atmosphere was a little depressing.
Six carriages stopped outside Moulton Manor.
Cyril jumped out of the carriage and looked at Gloria, who was gracefully and slowly walking down the wooden ladder, and mocked with some disdain: "Isn't this my excellent niece?" It's surprising that the president can make an exception and give you a chance to challenge me, but unfortunately, even if you are given a chance, it doesn't seem to have any effect on the outcome. ”
Gloria looked at Cyril and smiled, "If there is no impact, how can Uncle Cyril stand here with me now?" ”
The smile on Cyril's face froze, and he shook his hand and said, "Sharp teeth, I want to see if you can still say what you are now, and let the president give you another chance!" He turned and walked briskly towards the manor.
"You should say this to yourself." A smile appeared on the corner of Gloria's mouth, and she walked towards the manor without hurrying.
