Chapter 781: A Different Locke
"I ...... I don't want to be the head of the house!"
Before Chrissy could agree, Alice's eldest brother David trembled with fright, and quickly waved his hand to refuse, as if this head of the family was some kind of beast.
Chrissy's face suddenly turned red with anger, and secretly scolded her son for not being angry, do you think that if you don't become the head of the family, you will be fine?
Seeing this, Alice chuckled, she had long known that this would be the case.
She really knows too much about the character of her eldest brother, and she is timid and cowardly, and she is embarrassed at all.
That's why she said that the matter was extremely serious in advance, creating a situation where the Illuminati might want to eradicate their Rothschild family at any time, so that others would not dare to compete with her for the position of head of the family, and even afraid that they would be retaliated against by the Illuminati and leave the best.
Alice felt that her plan was very successful, and in the end, she might not even use the remaining trump cards, and she could easily take the position of head of the family.
"If no one objects, then I will be the head of the house. The corners of Alice's mouth showed a hint of smugness, and she looked around.
John wanted to say something, but at the thought of the Illuminati's methods, he finally swallowed back with a pale face.
Just when Alice thought that no one objected anymore, Locke's voice suddenly rang out.
"Wait. ”
"Uncle, what do you have to say?" Alice looked at Locke.
Locke said: "Although there is no rule in the family that a woman cannot be the head of the family, but what qualifications do you have to sit in this position, you are neither a descendant nor the eldest son." ”
The uncle who originally seemed to be kind seemed to be a different person at this time.
Alice was a little surprised that Locke would jump out against her, and immediately squinted at her uncle.
Originally, she thought that her biggest competitors were her uncle and brother, but now she felt that she was wrong, and her uncle was the biggest obstacle.
"Uncle, if I'm not mistaken, the selection criteria for the head of the family have never been these two, but to see whose talent is greater, and who can lead the family to prosperity, right?" asked Alice.
"That's true, but just because that's the case, you can't be the head of the house. Locke said calmly.
"Oh, why?"
"Because, if you become the head of the family, it will only lead to the destruction of the family. Don't forget, you killed the six patriarchs of the Illuminati, if Mogg knew about it, do you think our family would still be able to exist?"
"You don't have to worry about this, uncle, and even if you let someone else be the head of this family, will the Illuminati let our family go?"
"I don't know about the others, but there is one person who can. Locke said confidently.
"Who?"
Alice was immediately interested.
"I!" Locke said, pointing to himself.
"You?"
"That's right, as long as I become the head of the family, I guarantee that the family will be safe. ”
Alice was stunned, thinking that he would say something big, but she didn't expect it to be himself?
Alice sneered in her heart, she wanted to hear what her uncle could do to keep the Illuminati from angering their entire family.
"Uncle is so confident, I wonder what you can do?" Alice looked at Locke with a curious expression.
"Locke, do you really have a way to keep us safe?"
"yes, Locke, tell me what you can do?"
Immediately, everyone showed joy, and looked at Locke and asked.
Originally, they were all going to pack their bags and leave their homes and flee as far away as possible, if Locke had a way to keep them okay, it would be great, so even if Locke was the head of the house, what did it matter?
Seeing his brother so confident, John looked at Locke with a look of surprise on his face, and wanted to hear what he could do.
Locke glanced at everyone, and finally looked at Alice, a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes and said coldly: "My solution is to send you to Mogg to deal with, after all, this matter has nothing to do with the rest of us, it is all you and your father who made it up, I believe that as long as I know how to persuade Mog with reason and emotion, he will not blame us for this matter." ”
"Uncle, is this what you call a good idea, and how is this different from what Uncle just proposed?"
Alice didn't care about Locke's eyes, her face still didn't change, she had no feelings for the relatives in this family for a long time, so naturally she wouldn't feel sad because of Locke's words.
"yes!"
Everyone immediately showed a look of disappointment, and thought that Locke would have something to do.
Being named by Alice in public, John was very embarrassed and glared at Alice fiercely.
But Alice didn't care.
Locke raised the corners of his mouth, and there was no panic at all.
Just listen to him continue: "This is the most important guarantee I want to say next. ”
"What guarantees?" someone asked subconsciously.
"More than ten years ago, I did something for Mogg, and Mogg promised me that if I asked for anything in the future, he would agree to me. ”
"So, if I make this request in exchange, Mogg will surely agree to get rid of only Alice, the first evil, and let me go of all of us. ”
"What, anything like that?"
Everyone was overjoyed, as for whether Alice died or not, they didn't care at all, as long as they could live.
Some people suddenly became interested and asked Locke, "Locke, what have you done for Mogg that deserves his promise to you?"
"That's it, Locke, hurry up and share it!"
Locke was immediately very proud, and glanced at everyone, especially Alice and his eldest brother John.
John was suddenly unhappy, feeling that his previous scenery had been completely robbed by his younger brother.
Alice, on the other hand, was expressionless, as if Locke was going to take her to appease Mogg's anger without care.
Locke coughed and said with some evasion: "Actually, there is nothing to say, after all, this is not the point, being able to extinguish the anger of the Illuminati is the most important thing, isn't it?"
Everyone was immediately disappointed, but they still nodded!
"I didn't expect that there was such an agreement between my uncle and Mogg, which really impressed my niece!"
Locke heard Alice's sarcasm, but he didn't blush.
"Alice, my good niece, will you take the initiative to come with me next, or will I have you arrested?" said Locke, looking at Alice.
"Uncle, it's too early to talk about this, right?" Alice looked at Locke and smiled faintly, without a panicked look at all.
"Why, do you think anyone will agree to you being the head of the house now?" said Locke, looking at Alice with disdain.
