Chapter 32: A Man's Conversation
Ian McConaughey!
The witcher siblings hadn't heard the name, and their eyes were on the mayor to the side. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Robin McConaughey's son, a very mysterious young man."
Logan said in a deep voice that as the mayor of Memphis, he knew a lot about the people and things in the city, but he knew very little about the mysterious successor of the Connor Chamber of Commerce, and he had never even met him.
"The mastermind behind the kidnapping case has been found, I wonder what Mr. Mayor is going to do next?" John smiled, and added,
"If I need help, I'll do my best."
Hearing the latter words, the witch huntress glanced at him, and doubts flashed in her eyes, this eldest young master of the Conton family belongs to the kind of master who doesn't see rabbits and doesn't scatter eagles, why did he start to take the initiative to help, and he went all out!
She didn't understand, but the old man on the side knew why John did this, sometimes cooperation doesn't need a foundation, as long as there are the same enemies.
But until he thinks of the perfect solution, Rogan will never strike.
McConaughey is by no means a simple family, the old governor's influence in the whole of Tennessee is too great, whether it is the army, the government, or the law department, there is his shadow.
If you attack rashly, you will definitely not be pleased, and you will even completely detonate the family war between Francis and McConaughey.
John's eyes were half-squinted, and his gaze remained fixed on the old man.
The old fox is the old fox, it's all at this time, and he can still calm down.
It seems that it will not work without adding some ingredients, John's expression was slightly retracted, and he said in a deep voice,
"There's one thing I have to say, it's about Miss Grace."
As soon as the topic of this woman opened, the eyes of the three immediately gathered, and John said with a solemn face and a serious tone,
"Presumably, through the conversation just now, you have guessed that Grace's mind has been guided in some way, but this is not the most troublesome, I am worried about another thing,
Did you notice that when I mentioned the word McConaughey, she was very emotional, and her words were filled with endless admiration and affection, and she was not even allowed to say a little bad thing about McConaughey. β
John took a light breath, looked at Logan with burning eyes, and said word by word,
"Your Excellency, we may wish to imagine that
Say, I mean, if you die in some accident some time later,
So, who will Miss Grace, who will inherit the Francis family inheritance marry, and to whom will she give this family business? β
After saying a word, the air seemed to freeze at this moment, and the eyes of the demon hunter brothers and sisters widened with horror.
The silence on Logan's face finally disappeared, his brows furrowed, and a hint of gloom flashed in his eyes, it was not that he hadn't thought about this problem, but thinking about it and being brought up in public were fundamentally different things.
The old man's face twitched slightly, and the fists behind his back were clenched together.
Involving his decades of hard work and the inheritance of the Francis family, this extremely forbearant old man finally couldn't bear it any longer, he looked at John deeply, and shouted,
"Follow me."
With that, he turned to leave.
The corners of John's mouth hooked upward, and he bowed his head to the two people beside him, and followed.
The two of them went to the first floor and followed the corridor covered with marble tiles to the easternmost study.
The door opens and closes again.
John sat in a chair in the middle of the study, his hands clasped together, and casually surveyed the dΓ©cor in the study.
Three large bookshelves full of books, two symmetrical antler heads, a piano next to the antlers, an old shotgun hanging from the piano, and a discarded bucket cannon in the corner.
I have to say that compared with the superficial stoic and calm character, Mr. Mayor's study is a completely different style.
"For the past few days, Grace has been whispering in my ear, calling you a bastard who knows a little bit about art."
"Miss praised it falsely, I know a little bit about art, but I don't dare to be a bastard."
"Really?" Logan smiled and said, "Grace said you're good at playing the piano, how about it, let's have a song, let me see your piano skills." β
"In this way, then it will be ugly!" John bowed slightly, walked to the piano, and said with a smile, "I wonder what the mayor wants to hear?" β
"That's what you played at the ball."
"Good!"
John said in a low voice, inexplicable doubts flashed on his face, what is this old fox going to do, changing his face faster than turning a book, his face was still gloomy just now, and his face was pleasant in a blink of an eye, isn't he in a hurry at all?
The old man's mind is the most difficult to guess.
John frowned, feeling like a young man who had hit a soft nail, and the impassioned excitement brewing in his chest disappeared at once.
Fingertips touch the keys, and a piano song of the night comes out leisurely.
The melodious melody contains a calming power, and Logan, who listens, unconsciously closes his eyes and gently sways his body to the music.
The sound of the piano was transmitted to the living room, and the brother and sister who were drinking tea looked slightly stunned, and they were inexplicable for a while.
Gretel put down the teacup and said with some concern, "You say, what did Mr. Logan call him to the study alone. β
"Who knows?" Hansel took a sip of ale wine, thought of something from yesterday, and couldn't help but have doubts on his face, and said, "Yesterday at noon, the mayor asked me about Conton Manor?" β
"What do you say?" Gretel was a little nervous,
"What else can I say, everything that should be said has been said, and not a word has been missed that should not be said."
"That's good!"
Hearing this, the witch witch breathed a sigh of relief, in the past few days she found that Mayor Logan seemed to be investigating something, and once when she accompanied Grace into the study, she also found the words John and Conton Manor on the file,
This made her uneasy, and she was even more puzzled, she couldn't figure out how a young master of a plantation could enter the mayor's eyes? Is it because of Miss Grace?
β¦β¦
The sound of the piano rises and falls, and gradually enters the end.
Logan poured a glass of red wine and put it in front of John, smiling,
"No wonder Grace keeps mentioning that piano piece over and over again, it turns out to be really good."
John smiled, picked up his glass and touched it with him.
The dark red liquid poured down his mouth into his viscera, leaving a little spicy and heavy taste swirling on the tip of his tongue, Logan returned to his desk and smiled,
"What do you know about the Francis family?"
"Very little." John shrugged, "It's just a rumor that Memphis' largest trading company, the South S Chamber of Commerce, is the exclusive holding company of the Francis family. β
"Really?" Logan smiled, took a sip of red wine, and after being silent for a while, he suddenly said, "Are you interested in learning more about the Francis family?" β
As the words fell, John's hand shaking the wine glass suddenly stopped, and he raised his head,......
