Chapter 302 What is this gentleman doing here again?
Leo stared at Raneta with a sinister look, a stark contrast to his previous gentle and harmless demeanor.
“Mr. Lanetta, the Berg family did not want to come uninvited, but you have been unwilling to fulfill the promises you made to us, so we have no choice but to resort to this tactic.”
After saying this, he glanced around the banquet and finally spotted Michaela in the swarm of insects.
He pointed at Michele and said, "Michele was my mistress back then. You redeemed her by taking 10% of the sugarcane ownership, and that's why I was willing to terminate the registration with her. But now our Berg family has lost both our money and our wealth! You have to let me have at least one of these things, right?"
Michele's heart sank immediately.
He knew that although he still held some weight in Lanetta's heart, it was insignificant compared to the family's wealth.
Michele immediately grabbed Acosta's wrist pitifully, "Lord Acosta, save me! I don't want to go back to the Berg family with him, I'll die..."
His voice wasn't loud, but it was just enough for Acosta to hear clearly.
In particular, his voice had a distinct sob in it.
It was as if if he didn't help him, it would be tantamount to watching him die.
How could Acosta bear to watch that face, which resembled Mien's, suffer?
He raised his hand and patted Michelle's hand, gently reassuring her, "Don't worry, I've got you covered. I won't let the Berg family take you back."
Michele immediately looked at Acosta with gratitude, as if he were his only light.
Acosta became even more assertive. He walked directly to Ranetta's side and said, "Since you already agreed to let Michele return to the Ranetta family, what are you doing here causing trouble?"
Leo saw that before he could cause any trouble for Michele, another male insect was already standing up for Michele.
His face was extremely pale.
When Michele was with him before, she was surrounded by other male insects.
He even thought it was because Michele was so charming that he felt it was his good fortune and luck to be one of them.
Now, haha, what a fucking bad luck!
Leo glanced coldly at Acosta. "This is a matter between me and the Lanetta family. It has nothing to do with you, you little bug!"
He then looked at Lanetta and said, "The Lanetta family sold all their sugarcane ownership without the Berg family's permission. We need that money today, or else..."
His gaze swept over Michele, the meaning of which was not too obvious.
However, the Berg family members present were all of one mind.
Whoever wants this unclean worm, go ahead and take it.
The Berg family was unwilling to spend that much money to acquire a sub-female.
Could it be that this sub-female is edged with gold?
Laneta naturally knew which was more important, but with so many nobles and insects around, he couldn't bring himself to use Michele to settle the debt.
Fortunately, seeing that Acosta was wholeheartedly protecting Michele, he turned to Acosta and asked, "I heard that you and our Michele have a good relationship. If you are willing to marry him, I can make the decision right now."
By doing this, Lanetta was simply shifting the blame to Acosta.
If he agrees, he can reduce the amount of money he has to give to the Berg family.
After all, once Michele married Acosta, she became Acosta's female insect.
Even if the Berg family wanted to settle accounts, they would have to ask Acosta and the two families for it.
Everyone present could see through Ranetta's scheme, and Acosta, being no fool, certainly could too.
He genuinely wanted to help Michele, but Lanetta's actions disgusted him.
He has now been found by the Graham family's insects and will become a member of the nobility.
As far as he knew, the Graham family was an ancient family, almost comparable in lineage to royalty.
What right does a nouveau riche aristocrat have to scheme against him?
Acosta was about to retort when Michele stopped him, "Your Excellency Acosta, you should leave this matter alone. I... I can handle it..."
He took a deep breath and was about to step forward when Acosta pulled him back. "No, this can't be something you, a mere insect, have to shoulder!"
His words were tantamount to making a decision for Michele.
He essentially took on the burden of the Lanetta family's problems himself.
Seeing this, Lanetta immediately felt more confident.
Although he didn't know where Michele had picked up the male insect from, he figured that if Michele could get this insect to stand out, then this insect must have some kind of background.
Lanetta immediately patted Acosta on the back with a beaming smile and said, "In that case, we're all in the same boat. I'll leave this to you to handle."
Michele: "..."
Acosta: "..."
The other insects standing to the side were also stunned by Laneta's crazy move, and immediately started chattering away.
"My God! Has Lanetta gone mad with greed? These two bugs are nothing, but now he's going to clean up this mess?"
"Ha! How many insects associated with Michele can have a good ending?"
"That's true. Wasn't this male insect from the Berg family the lord of the Michaeli family before? Tsk tsk, I heard he lost everything, both his insect possessions and his wealth!"
"That's right, we should stay away from that female insect from the Lanetta family in the future, lest we get ourselves into trouble!"
...
Fortunately, the surrounding insects were talking about Michele, not all the female insects in the Lanetta family.
Otherwise, Tan Chi would make them realize that the female insects of the Mikaela and Lanetta families are not the same thing!
Don't let one bug dropping ruin the whole pot of soup!
Although he didn't know much about the other female insects in the Lanetta family, his wife was a good insect!
He would never allow any stigma to be associated with his beautiful, lovely, weak, and helpless wife!
Eli, standing beside Tan Chi, naturally noticed this interesting scene as well.
Even the bugs in the Berg family probably didn't expect Ranetta to be so shameless, but now that Acosta has agreed in front of Ranetta, he's probably going to suffer a huge loss.
After all, with so many noble insects present, everyone remembered that this male insect, a great traitor, was going to marry the infamous female insect of the Lanetta family.
I really don't know how he could eat that.
The other insects were happily watching the drama unfold, completely unaware that some insects, unable to resist the hype, had secretly started a live stream using their personal computers.
"This is getting more and more lively." Tan Chi couldn't help but kiss Letekar on the cheek, whom he was holding in his arms, and then felt a passionate gaze upon him...
