399 Legacy V
A burly man smiled and said, "My sister-in-law is a good age in her prime, and she needs a man's care and love, and Bella is also a beautiful and lovely little girl, and the two cuties are pitiful, Lao Bei!
Bedwell's eyes lit up and he said angrily, "Wren, it's you, what did you do to them?!"
Wren is one of the elders of the Silver Knights, second only to the Silver Three Musketeers in the Order, and he is also a respected role in Archduke Thomas, giving him good treatment, which is why Bedwell is so angry about his betrayal.
"Don't worry, I didn't do anything, I just invited them to be guests at the house. Wren opened his hand and said innocently, "If nothing happens today, I believe they will meet you safely in the evening." ”
Stabilizing Bedwell was a strategy for Brad, and by being able to set aside the First Mythril Knight, he could remove a lot of pressure.
Bedwell let out a scorching breath, of course he understood what Wren meant, if he didn't cooperate, with Brad's temperament, there was no doubt that his wife and daughter would be subjected to indescribable abuse, it was a pain that a man couldn't bear, and the thought of it made his heart twist.
On the one hand, there is a suzerain-master who swears allegiance to the death, and on the other hand, there are dearest and beloved relatives, it is really difficult to choose, and there is a dilemma.
Seeing this, Gosta muttered, "Bedwell, you don't want to get involved in today's affairs!"
Bedwell was shocked, but he couldn't refute it, he knew that Gosta was doing it for his good.
Charlie sneered: "Uncle Brad, you are really unscrupulous in order to achieve your goal!
"For all possible betrayals, I have to be fully prepared, I don't think it's a mistake, this is a necessary precaution, if there is no betrayal, of course there is no harm, this is very reasonable!"
Charlie said in a deep voice: "For the definition of betrayal, maybe we have different answers!"
"That's right, little Charlie, you really look more and more like my brother, not only in appearance, but also in temperament. Brad narrowed his eyes, looked Charlie up and down, and said with a smile: "You think that by pulling the Silver Knights over, you can change the situation in front of you?!"
Actually, I never counted on the Silver Knights.
Charlie said in his heart, however, he also knew that even if he said it, Brad would not believe it, he could only shrug his shoulders.
"I might as well tell you, I expected today's situation a long time ago, after all, there are some people in the Silver Knights who disagree with the Pavel family, I want to find them out one by one and kill them all! Let's go! I want to see how many people dare to stand on the opposite side of the family today!"
The crowd followed Brad's footsteps and moved to the glade.
It was the central garden of the family mansion, there was a tall maple forest, and there was a shallow grass in the center of the maple forest, and the pale green grass had long been covered with fiery red leaves, layered on top of each other, and the color of green was no longer visible, and at this moment, more than 500 silver knights were standing loosely on the grass.
When the silver knights saw a group of people walking towards them, they reacted one after another, and some sluggish guys saw their teammates start to move, and hurriedly looked for their positions, and after a short period of turmoil, these 500 silver knights stood in a big phalanx, not to mention neat, but also stood out of their order, reflecting quite outstanding military quality.
Without waiting for Charlie and Gosta to say anything, Brad spoke: "I am very disappointed that you are here today, because you have put my instructions aside, and I have arranged this with good intentions to prevent you from having to face some difficult choices in the family meeting......"
Someone in the phalanx immediately replied loudly: "It was Lord Bedwell who brought them here, he is an instructor of the Silver Knights, we must obey his orders!"
"Yes! As a soldier, obedience is the first principle!"
"That's right!"
Hearing Brad's words, the butler Brian was a little anxious, secretly pulled Charlie's clothes, and said softly: "Young master, now is the critical moment to compete for the Silver Knight, you can't be so calm, you can't let Brad take the lead!"
Charlie shook his head and motioned for Brian to calm down.
Brad was very satisfied with the reaction of these Silver Knights, raised his hand and pressed down, and continued: "Regarding the Bedwell issue, there will be a fair verdict afterwards, now I just want to ask you a few questions: Are you willing to continue to serve the Pavel family? Are you willing to continue to maintain the glory of the Silver Knights? Are you willing to follow me, the next head of the Pavel family, to create a more brilliant future together?"
"Yes!"
"I do! I do!!"
"Support Mr. Brad!"
"Mr. Brad is the undisputed leader of the Silver Knights!"
The shouts of the phalanx came and went, and it could be seen that the majority of those who answered in the affirmative made Brad's face more beautiful, and he glanced at Charlie rather proudly, eager to see his dejected expression, but unfortunately he couldn't.
When the cries gradually subsided, Charlie said calmly, "Is Uncle Brad's show over? Can I say a few words?"
Brad stretched out one hand and said with a smile: "Yes, I was just trying to see who were holding the family money, wearing the family equipment, and enjoying the family welfare, who had different thoughts behind their backs, and I also wanted to see what these betrayers looked like, would he blush, would he be ashamed?"
Brad's voice increased a few points, and these heart-wrenching words were another heavy blow to the person who didn't express his position just now, and he was also questioning himself in his heart, is he a traitor in the end?
Charlie smiled and said, "First of all, I don't agree with Mr. Bullard's remarks, this is not a betrayal, because the Silver Knights were originally a private army created by my father.
It is undeniable that my father used the resources of the family, but he is the head of the Pavel family, which is understandable, and he is still the nominal head of the family, but some people can't wait anymore and want to remove the word 'generation' on the top of their heads.
Therefore, you need not feel guilty, whether you choose to finally Archduke Thomas, or finally choose to finally Mr. Bullard, it has nothing to do with betrayal. ”
Hearing Charlie's opening remarks, Brad was slightly moved, for Charlie's good attitude, but also for his wit and eloquence, is this still the ignorant young master Charlie before?
However, Brad didn't stop Charlie, because he really wanted to find out how many people in the Silver Knights would stand on Charlie's side, and he wanted to make a decision today and solve the problem once and for all, so don't stop Charlie and let him perform to his heart's content! He will make Charlie understand that he can't afford to play with the strategies of the adult world, he is just a child who is not deeply involved in the world!
Abby stood behind Charlie and was also puzzled, in her memory, she had never seen her cousin so calm and sharp, she couldn't believe her eyes and ears.
Charlie continued: "I am here today because I have heard about my father and the family's intention to reformulate a set of rules to complete a new round of power shuffle.
My purpose was simple, not to expect anything from the family, but to fulfill one of the things my father had told me, which Uncle Gosta had now announced. ”
As he spoke, Charlie raised his hand to gesture to Gosta, who pulled out a piece of letterhead from his lined pocket and took out a piece of stationery.
Seeing this, Brad was slightly startled, and immediately understood that the letterhead he burned just now was probably a fake, and the real letter was now in Gosta's hands, and there was a momentary impulse that he wanted to stop Gosta, but considering his ultimate goal, considering that it might cause dissatisfaction among the Silver Knights, he decided to listen to the content of this suicide note first.
Gosta flicked open the letter and read, "Brothers of the Silver Knights, I am Thomas Pavel, your master, and when you hear this letter, I may no longer be alive.
I remember thirteen years ago, when I started this team, there were only ten people at the beginning, Gosta, Bedwell, Wren, Snet, Iman, Pique, the Kate Brothers, Belinda and Michiel, and it was hard to imagine that it would have grown to the size it is today.
Over the past decade, we have defeated countless powerful opponents, including Harris, the Devil Wolf King, the Defia Thieves, the Elvin Road Tyrant, and even defeated a mysterious elven team, which is our glorious record, and we have brought a stable and safe living environment to the port of Haynes.
There is no doubt that you are great, and I believe that you are strong enough to join any of the main battle regiments! But I am very honored and proud that you have chosen to follow me!
I'm glad that seven of the ten old friends have survived today, and that the Silver Three Musketeers, who founded the team in the first place, are still alive and well.
As time goes on, as we grow older and young people grow up, you will be the strongest line of defense in Haynes City in the future, for yourself and for your growing family.
Speaking of which, I feel very ashamed that I am gone, and I have left behind a loved one that I cannot leave behind.
Charlie, undeniably, is a bear child, he is arrogant and withdrawn, indulgent, he takes pleasure in destruction, he is a typical child who has not been taught well.
However, he is my son and it is my responsibility.
So, I have an unspeakable request, and there is no doubt that Costa and Bedwell accepted my request and were willing to take care of him, and now it is your turn.
You are faced with two choices: first, to continue to serve the Pavel family and to be loyal to the head of the Pavel family, and second, to be loyal to my son, under the leadership of Gosta and Bedwell.
I put forward these two choices very calmly, without any tendencies, you can make a choice in your heart, for any choice, I will bless you, thank you!
In addition, I have a message for my dear brother Brad: If you can be a little bigger, I believe you will become a worthy head of the family. ”
After a letter of belief, many of the silver knights present wept, they seemed to think of those eventful years, and aroused the feelings of the robes.
Bang Bang Bang!
A slow-paced applause broke the faint sadness, and Brad sneered, "Yes, Gosta, who did you concoct such a sensational suicide note?"
