Outside the door stood Arthur, Maltz, Dicko and others, as well as the Bernices.

It was Mr. Bernice who kicked the door open.

The gentleman, who had a good reputation in Nanlos, stared at his daughter on the ground, his eyes filled with anger, and without saying a word, he picked up the soft sword on the ground and stabbed at his daughter.

Mrs. Bernice sobbed quietly, but did not stop.

For, the lady knew, that Edith, who had done such a thing, did not deserve anyone's sympathy, and must be punished.

Even though......

Reluctant!

Otherwise, it will be the Bernese family who will suffer.

Mrs. Bernice knows, and Mr. Bernice knows better.

So, this gentleman showed no mercy.

Linda on the side breathed a sigh of relief, but she felt that she was not perfect - as one of the inheritors of the bloodline of the 'Credos family', she always had a unique perspective.

It's just that Linda is not used to it now.

But among those present, there are people who are accustomed to it, and they have long been carried forward.

"Wait!"

When Arthur snorted softly, the whole person had already appeared beside Mr. Bernice, his palm grabbed the other party's wrist, and the words in his mouth were continuous-

"Mr. Bernice, please calm down.

While this misfortune is enough to heartbreak anyone, we must understand that it was the members of the Dead Poets Society who provoked Edith, and your enemies, to make this happen.

So, we need to talk. ”

As he spoke, Arthur looked at Bernice.

Bernice also looked at Arthur.

The two looked at each other.

A second later, the soft sword was thrown to the ground.

"Your Excellency Krados, please come to my study, we need to talk about it seriously."

Mr. Bernice extended an invitation to the young 'medium'.

"Of course!"

The young 'medium' gladly went to the appointment.

The whole time, the young 'medium' didn't look at Edith on the ground - although he wished that the other party was dead now, he would never let Bernice do it.

Because, anger!

Does Bernice hate Edith?

Naturally, he hated it, and he couldn't wait to kill the daughter who killed the second son.

But that doesn't mean Bernice doesn't have waves in his heart.

Bernice might have done it on impulse, but what about afterwards?

Bernice, who calmed down afterwards, will definitely regret it, and as long as he regrets it, this Mr. Bernice must find a reason for himself.

And what better reason than 'there are too many people around, I need to worry about the reputation of the Bernice family'?

No!

That's the best reason, and once this Mr. Bernice has found an excuse for himself, the next step is to start passing the buck.

There is a high probability that in the end, I will come to the conclusion that it is because of Arthur and others who are watching, and I have to do it.

And, with such a conclusion, convince those around him who accuse him.

For example: his wife, his eldest son, etc.

And at that time, Arthur will inexplicably have an extra group of enemies.

Therefore, Edith deserves to die, but not here.

Must die at the hands of the Dead Poets Society!

Because, Edith knows too much, they are killing people!

The people of the 'Dead Poets Society' have caused him so much trouble, and it is only natural for him to pay back once in a while, isn't it?

Anyway, the people of the 'Dead Poets Society' won't jump out and say that it's not their own.

Even if it jumps out, no one will believe it.

What a perfect 'backstabber'!

And in addition, it is the core part -

Benefit!

Arthur needed to plan for the pre-setup of the 'Five Misters' Exchange, and Bernice's warehouse was an integral part of it.

As he followed Mr. Bernice into his private study, the young 'medium' saw him pull out a bottle of wine and two glasses from behind the bookshelf.

When the young 'medium' waved his hand, Mr. Bernice poured himself a glass, drank it all, and then poured himself another glass.

However, the bottle and another glass were put back behind the bookshelf.

Mr. Bernice, glass in hand, walked back to the young 'medium' and ripped off the collar of his shirt as he went.

The young 'medium' remained smiling and silent the entire time.

[Eyes like torches] and [Observing words and colors] are constantly flickering.

By the time I had a drink for the first time, my emotions had calmed down.

After pouring the wine, it was thinking.

Buttoning the collar of my shirt was an attempt to mislead me.

Tsk, should it be said that he is worthy of being a big businessman who was born in a ship-pressing? ’

Arthur didn't mind in the slightest, but breathed a sigh of relief - he didn't want to talk to an angry father about how to 'borrow' the right to use the dock warehouse.

That would lead to nothing.

It's not the same with a calm and shrewd businessman.

Especially when he has a handle, everything will be different.

When the other party motioned to sit down, Arthur immediately sat down on the sofa opposite, but still did not speak.

At this time, waiting for the other party to speak is the best choice.

After taking another sip of the wine in the glass, the Mr. Bernice sighed heavily—

"I'm sorry for the trouble, but I will send 20,000 gold coins to No. 2 Kirk Street as promised, and I will add another 20,000 gold coins, I hope you can accept it."

Bernice looked apologetic and looked sincere, as if he really wanted to make up for Arthur.

"Thank you for your patronage.

However, the 'medium' does not accept money beyond the agreed remuneration. ”

Arthur smiled and shook his head, politely refusing.

20,000 gold is a lot, but it's not enough to deal with the matter at hand.

Bernice heard something like this.

This let him know that this time he was afraid that he would really have to hemorrhage.

Looking at the smiling young 'medium' in front of him, Bernice always felt that he saw a little fox who had stolen a hen, and he smiled so much......

Angry!

However, Bernice did not really get angry, but asked tentatively.

"What do you think of Edith?"

"Then what do you think of Malinda. Julius. How about Caesar? ”

Arthur asked rhetorically with a smile.

And in the bottom of his heart, Arthur applauded this Bernice gently.

There is no doubt that the other party has probably guessed what he wants, so he is ready to use his daughter as a bargaining chip to pull him into the chariot of the Bernice family.

It not only perfectly solved the reputation problem, but also got his help.

What's more, someone was able to keep an eye on their daughter.

Even if you pay for the right to use some dock warehouses, you will make a lot of money.

It's a win-win-win-win situation.

Is this a self-made businessman? ’

Arthur thought to himself, but Bernice on the other side insisted.

"There is no doubt that Lady Caesar is excellent, but Edith can do better—she now has a twenty-percent inheritance of the Bernes family, and with Clay's misfortune, it belongs to Clay's two-percent inheritance, and I am willing to leave it to those who can give Edith happiness."

Arthur listened to Bernice's words, and for the first time was glad that he didn't have the ability to see souls, otherwise, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to help it at this time, right?

Poor Kley!

What a fool!

With emotion in his heart, Arthur stood up in Bernice's surprised gaze, walked straight to the door, and said in his mouth while opening the door-

"I'm not good at words, so I ......",

Why don't you talk to her personally? ”

Outside the door, Malinda, with a pipe in her mouth, was frosty.
