A man in black walked out of the shadows, knelt on one knee respectfully, and presented a tablet computer with both hands.
"The poisonous scorpion next to the Third Young Master has been dealt with by the Sixth Young Master. This is the surveillance video."
Eric took the tablet and swiped his finger across the screen.
In the picture, Renault shot the scorpion in the head with one shot. His movements were quick and decisive, and his eyes were as cold as ice.
Fernando, this idiot, really can't keep his temper!
He casually threw the tablet to the assistant behind him, his eyes full of calculation.
"Oh, my sixth brother is still so impulsive."
He had long expected that Fernando would not be able to resist attacking Lina.
And Renault... this madman who is blinded by love will definitely kill for that woman.
"Keep staring at Lina."
Eric ordered in a cold voice, "Especially Renault. I want to know his every move."
The man in black lowered his head and accepted the order, then quickly disappeared into the darkness.
Eric stood in front of the French window, overlooking the night view of the castle, with a confident smile on his face.
After enduring for so many years, I finally waited for this opportunity.
The harder Fernando and Renault fight, the better it is for him.
One is arrogant, the other is impulsive and brainless.
And he.
He is the one standing behind the scenes and controlling everything!
The one who laughs last is never the most flamboyant one.
But... the most patient hunter.
…
At the same time.
As soon as Renault got in the car, he said, "Go directly to the airport and return to Beijing immediately."
Lei Shuangcheng stepped on the accelerator hard, and the car shot out like an arrow, heading straight for the private airport.
In the rearview mirror, the outline of the Lesos Castle gradually disappeared into the distance.
Renault spoke slowly only after confirming that there were no pursuers.
"The old patriarch made a statement tonight."
Lei Shuangcheng's grip on the steering wheel tightened, "What happened?"
"Whoever marries Lina will be the next head of the family."
"Plus two-thirds of Rosenberg's property and two oil pipelines in Country Y."
"What?!" Lei Shuangcheng was so shocked that his hand almost slipped. "Then Fernando and Eric are..."
"They've gone crazy." Renault's eyes were cold. "Lina is in danger now. We must make arrangements before they act."
…
An hour later.
The private plane cut through the night sky and headed straight for the capital of China.
Inside the cabin, Renault closed his eyes to rest, but the coldness between his brows did not diminish at all.
Lei Shuangcheng handed over a glass of whiskey and whispered, "Boss, China is not our territory after all. If Fernando and Eric really take action..."
"So, we need help." Renault opened his eyes and took the wine glass.
"You mean... Shi Heng?" Lei Shuangcheng hesitated.
Renault was silent for a moment and nodded slowly.
Shi Heng, the head of one of the four great families in Beijing and the president of Shi Group, has absolute power in China.
More importantly, he is Gu Youran's husband.
Lei Shuangcheng hesitated to speak, "But, your relationship with Shi Heng...will he give you a hard time?"
"For Lina, what's wrong with bowing my head once?" Renault drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, his eyes determined.
…
Early in the morning on the third day of the Lunar New Year, outside the ICU of Kangrui Hospital.
“Bang!”
A loud slap echoed in the corridor.
Jack Rosenberg, Lina's grandfather, had red eyes at this moment and stared at Renault.
"If my granddaughter doesn't wake up, I want your entire Rethers family to be buried with her!"
Renault stood there and took the slap head-on, blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, but he didn't say a word in rebuttal.
Lei Shuangcheng stood aside, his fists clenched so tightly that they made a creaking sound, but he did not step forward in the end.
Because Renault had warned him in advance: no matter what happened, he was not allowed to interfere.
Just then, the elevator opened with a ding.
Shi Heng and Gu Youran walked out quickly.
"Mr. Jack."
Shi Heng reached out to stop the old man who was about to continue his anger, "Let's go to the conference room to discuss Lina's situation in detail."
Jack glared at Renault fiercely, then turned and walked side by side with Shi Heng.
The atmosphere in the conference room was solemn.
Gu Youran handed the latest inspection report to Jack.
"Mr. Jack, Lina is out of danger. The bullet was only two millimeters away from her heart, but fortunately, it didn't injure any major blood vessels."
The old man took the report with trembling hands, his eyes red, "She has never suffered such hardship since she was a child..."
Renault whispered, "It's my fault."
Jack raised his head suddenly and glared at him, "Of course it's your fault! If it weren't for the internal strife in your Leathers family, how could Lina be shot?"
Shi Heng spoke at the right time: "Mr. Jack, now is not the time to assign responsibilities, but how to protect Lina."
Jack took a deep breath and finally calmed down.
"I have reached an agreement with the head of the Leisers family."
"Linna will marry whoever can protect her. The dowry will be two-thirds of the Rosenberg family's wealth, plus two oil pipelines in Country Y."
"The head of the family announced it in front of everyone at the family dinner last night."
Renault's voice was calm, his eyes fixed on Jack.
"I am willing to marry Lina, but I don't need the dowry."
"Because I really like him, the marriage was not forced."
Jack sneered, "Do you think I'm negotiating with you?"
"That's not what I meant. I'll make sure she lives well without relying on a penny from Rosenberg."
"Bullshit!" Jack slammed the table. "I, Jack Rosenberg's granddaughter, deserve the best!"
The conference room suddenly became tense.
Shi Heng explained: "Mr. Jack, what Renault means is..."
