Chapter 529 Three Days
Barrafina Restaurant, London.
Barrafina is a boutique restaurant specializing in Spanish cuisine. However, due to its unpopular dishes and the high per capita consumption, it is almost out of reach for most people.
On the second floor of the restaurant, there were only two guests in the spacious hall.
After the waiter brought all the dishes, he said respectfully, "Sir, your dishes have been served. Is there anything else you need?"
"No more." Tukeng doctor number.
Cribber, who was dressed in formal attire, shook his head and handed a stack of tips to the other party.
After the waiter left, Cribber took the initiative to say, "Mr. Todd, I'm sorry about your situation, but there's really nothing I can do right now."
Todd Lawrence pushed aside a dish of salmon fried in olive oil before looking up at Kerry Barber and saying, "We can always find a solution. I believe Mr. Barber has the ability to do it."
Cribber raised his eyebrows and didn't rush to answer Todd.
They both knew that the important things had not been said yet, and whoever got anxious had already lost half the battle.
The fact that Cribber agreed to Todd's request to meet him already indicated that he was likely to cooperate with him. However, if he wanted him to give up his current interests, Todd would inevitably have to offer a price that would tempt Cribber.
"Mr. Barber, if you have any requests, you can just tell us directly."
Todd continued, "As long as I can do it, I will definitely complete this task seriously. At the same time, the Lawrence family owes you a favor."
Cribber tore the paella slowly and stirred it with a spoon, as if thinking about what conditions he should put forward.
After a long while, he finally said quietly, "The person I'm working with this time is Miranda."
Cribber's answer seemed to have nothing to do with Todd's question, but Todd knew that he was hinting at the difficulty of his matter.
Burberry's headquarters is in London. Once the relationship between the other party and Miranda breaks down, it will inevitably be affected in the future.
Although these effects will occur, in Todd's eyes, there is nothing in this world that cannot be solved with money. The only difference is the amount of money.
Todd cursed Jimmy in his heart. If it weren't for Jimmy's stupidity, why would he need to care about Cribber's face now?
"As long as you stop now, Mr. Barber, I will return all the profits you have gained to you later. As for Miranda and other funds, I will also give you half."
Todd said in a deep voice, looking very painful: "And from now on, when Miranda attacks me, I will also take the initiative to fight her."
If you listen carefully to Todd's words, you will find that the other party's current purpose is not just to recover the losses, but he has even begun planning to attack Miranda again.
The conditions Todd offered did not seem very generous, but he knew clearly that Cribber would agree.
As a chaebol family with hundreds of years of heritage, the Lawrence family's foundation is not comparable to that of some emerging nouveau riche families.
It seems that the foundation of the Lawrence family has begun to shake, but with Todd's methods, these difficulties are only temporary. As long as they can hold on for this period of time, the Lawrence family may be able to return to the top.
Cribber took two bites of the seafood rice before he slowly raised his head and replied, "I can give up, but I'll need some time to paralyze Miranda. You know, that woman is not a fool."
"It's a pleasure working with you!" Todd said with a forced smile.
Although Todd had achieved his goal, he himself was not happy at all.
I believe that this kind of behavior, which is almost like giving money to others to seek peace, will not make anyone feel happy.

The Montcalm Prestige Hotel. Luxury suite.
Accompanied by a burst of rapid breathing, the originally noisy room returned to silence.
John leaned against the bed and lit a cigarette. After taking two deep puffs, he said to Abby in his arms, "Help me find out tomorrow what agreement my father reached with Todd tonight."
Abby looked up at John and asked confusedly, "Why are you asking that?"
"Of course I knew what they meant and took action in advance," John replied. "My most important task now is to find a way to please my father. When I take over Burberry, you will be my sole personal secretary."
He didn't make any promise to Abby about marrying her because they both knew that such a thing would never happen.
"I see."
Abby said meekly, "But your father takes what happened tonight very seriously, so I probably won't be able to get much useful information out of him."
"Then tell me all about his recent work arrangements and all his plans."
John blew a puff of cigarette smoke into Abby's face and said with a wicked smile, "This way, no matter what changes there are, I can be prepared."
Abby's eyes were as charming as silk, and she leaned lazily into John's arms and said, "I'll keep an eye on it."
John looked at the beauty in his arms, put out the cigarette in the ashtray, and then, at Abby's exclamation, he turned over again and rode on her directly...
…
Claridge's Hotel.
Jimmy backed out of Todd's room.
As soon as he walked out, the guilt on his face disappeared instantly, replaced by resentment.
He himself had never thought that what originally seemed to be a slightly difficult task would turn out like this.
Now he has no chance of inheriting the family, and all this can be said to be thanks to Tang Shuo.
Walking back to his room, Jimmy took out his phone and dialed a number. He then said, "I'm Jimmy Lawrence, looking for your boss."
"Wait a moment." A very rough voice came from the other end of the phone.
After a while, a questioning voice came again. "What's the matter?"
Unlike the last man who answered the phone, this boss's voice sounded a little childish.
"How soon can you get rid of the person I mentioned last time?" Jimmy asked.
"Give me the compensation for last time first," the man on the other end of the phone said. "As long as you can pay, we can definitely get rid of him within a week."
"Five million pounds," said Jimmy. "I want you to do this in three days or so."
Although the family's available funds are now insufficient, Jimmy still has a huge sum of money in his name.
Originally, he planned to wait until the luxury brand issue was resolved, and then use the money to set up a separate trading company and separate it from the Lawrence family's affairs, but now it is obviously no longer necessary to wait until that time.
"Five and a half million." The young man said, "I can start preparing now."
"Deal!" Jimmy gritted his teeth.
Normally, a life is worth about 500,000 pounds. Although Jimmy knew that he was being ripped off, he had no choice but to wait any longer.
…
Tangyun Group.
After Tang Shuo told Yang Chen about his plan to establish a North American branch, Yang Chen smiled bitterly and said, "I was wondering why Zhang Jingxin became so strange in the end. Turns out it was all your doing!"
"If I can't fool you, how can I fool others?" Tang Shuo replied with a smile, and then said to Heizi who was sitting next to him: "Brother Hei, are you going to stay here or go to North America with Zhang Jingxin later?"
“I’ll go to North America!”
Heizi answered and then asked, "How is Master Xin doing now?"
"I was shot, but I won't die!" Tang Shuo replied.
"That's good."
Heizi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I thought he really betrayed me. I haven't slept well for a while. Now I can finally get a good night's sleep."
Tang Yun Group is now developing very well. Although Tang Yun was born under the halo of Burberry, if it wants to continue to develop, it must break away from the influence of Burberry.
Although this plan seems a little early, there will definitely be no major problems if we make arrangements early.
