Chapter 132 Enemy or Friend?
"No, I didn't say that!" Kaya hurriedly denied: "We can make a gentleman's agreement--"
"I swear on the honor of the Firoz family, as long as you let me go, I will never come back to cause trouble."
However, Seraphine translated simultaneously: "Damn it! How did they know that I wanted Grandma Camille to help me with revenge? Did I let it slip?"
Kaya: “…”
Seraphine helped translate the silence: "Can you read minds?"
“Yes.” Seraphine asked herself and answered: “I will.”
Kaya was silent longer this time.
"What is this girl thinking about?" Levi asked curiously.
Seraphine pursed her lips aggrievedly and said, "She is greeting my family."
It turns out that the elegant and beautiful noble lady would also curse in her heart.
"And the curses were very ugly." Seraphine frowned, as if her ears were polluted.
“Damn it…” Miss Kaya finally despaired and broke down. She stopped acting: “Let me tell you, I am the heir of the Philos family, the granddaughter of the head of the family, Stevan Philos, and the great-niece of Lady Grey Camille Philos!”
"Kill me if you can!"
"The Firoz family will tear you into pieces and grind you into ashes, making you pay for your sins with blood!"
At first glance, Kaya's hearty scolding really seems to have some of the aloof, chaste, and righteousness-conscious style of a nobleman.
However, what Seraphine translated for her was: "Wuwuwuwu... Help me, aunt!"
Kaya: “…”
This farce made Levi feel overwhelmed:
This girl is not a generous person. If she is released, she will definitely encourage the elders of the family to come for revenge.
The leaders and the business tycoons of Piltover are already in a delicate balance of cooperation and competition, fighting without breaking.
Many chaebol businessmen are unhappy with the Leaders Association, especially those small and medium-sized business owners who have been "negotiated".
They are still afraid of the power of the Medarda and Jiraman families, and the goddess Janna who is said to be standing behind the leader, so they dare not act rashly.
But once the Leaders Association and the Filos Family came into direct conflict, with the powerful Filos Family as the leader...
Then this small kidnapping incident may very well become the fuse for an all-out war between business owners and leaders.
Although the leader now has the ability to protect himself, he may not lose if a real fight breaks out.
But organizational development is like stacking Q with Nasus - if possible, Levi would certainly want to develop safely for a while, and then go for a team fight when the damage is high and the time is right.
"What should I do?" Levi was also thinking about this question.
"Just kill him." Jinx stepped forward responsibly: "I did it, so let me handle it."
She even looked at Lina, who was implicated by her, a little embarrassedly: "I was very efficient when I kidnapped people, and no one noticed at all."
"Even if those Piltover guys can find clues, they can only find them on me - I'm not the leader. This matter has nothing to do with Sister Lina or you!"
"No." Levi shook his head in denial.
This girl has moved into the leader's dormitory and called Sister Lina. If the Philos family really investigates, it won't be a problem just because she says it's okay.
"Besides, Kaya doesn't deserve the death penalty." Levi still has some humanitarian concern.
"Yes, yes!" Kaya also nodded frantically.
"Let's first send her to the coal mine in Zaun and put her through labor reform." Levi said, "As long as the Philos family can't find her in their lifetime, this matter will be covered up."
Kaya: “…”
Going to Zaun to dig coal for the rest of my life would be worse than dying!
"No, Mr. Levi... I beg you..." Kaya begged.
But no one paid any attention to her.
Even the most gentle and kind Seraphine knew that Kaya could not be released. If she went back, a lot of blood would be shed and many people would die.
Locking her up for labor reform is the greatest mercy the leader can show.
“No, don’t…” Kaya twisted her tightly bound body and backed away in despair: “Don’t come near me!!”
But Jinx had already picked up her stinky socks and approached her with a kind look on her face: "Come on, be good and open your mouth."
"We should go to your new home, Miss Kaya - don't forget to keep quiet on the way."
Kaya twisted her body like a slug covered in salt, trying desperately to hide.
But Jinx still approached step by step, holding his socks and sack. Finally, he was so close that there was no place to hide.
"Wait." Just as Jinx was about to pack Kaya up again, Levi suddenly stopped her.
He thought of something.
"Ms. Kaya." Levi asked thoughtfully, "You just said that your grandfather is Stevan Fellowes?"
"The head of the Firoz family, Mr. Stevan?"
"Yes..." Kaya spat out the half-stuffed stinky socks that Jinx had stuffed in her, breathing heavily with lingering fear.
"Mr. Stevan, you are Mrs. Camille's biological brother, right?" Levi asked again to confirm.
"Of course." Isn't that nonsense?
Stevan is her grandfather and Camille is her great aunt, so Camille and Stevan are naturally siblings.
"Then..." Levi also knew that the current head of the Philos family was still Stevan.
The Steel Shadow Camille he was familiar with was currently a loyal family spy leader serving her brother, the head of the family.
She is equivalent to the general and spy chief of the Philos family.
And Stevan is the "emperor" who controls everything.
Whether the Philos family should go to war with the Leader Association is still up to Stevan.
"Ms. Kaya," Levi asked suddenly without thinking, "How is your grandfather, Mr. Stevan, doing?"
"Of course it's okay..." Kaya instinctively wanted to hide the negative news about her family.
But seeing Seraphine's big blinking eyes, she could only helplessly and angrily tell him the true situation of her family:
"No, my grandfather's health is already very bad."
"He was born with a weak constitution and is already over 80 years old. He has been in a wheelchair for several years and cannot even leave the house. He has to take a large amount of alchemical drugs every day to barely stay alive."
"The doctor said..." Kaya couldn't help but look a little sad when she said this.
Unlike those cold-blooded nobles who had long lost their humanity due to conflicts of interest, she obviously still loved her family very much.
"The doctor said my grandfather only has two months to live at most," Kaya said dejectedly.
"So fast?" Li Wei was delighted: "That's great!"
Kaya: “???”
"Ahem, what I mean is..." Levi straightened his expression: "You can go now, Miss Kaya."
"You let me go?" Kaya widened her eyes in disbelief.
"Yes, I'll let you go."
"Aren't you afraid that I will go back to my grandfather and complain to him, and ask him to send my aunt to take revenge on you?" Kaya was still worried.
Lina, Jinx and Seraphine all looked at Levi with worried and puzzled eyes.
But Levi said, "I'm not afraid."
"Because not only will I let you go back, I will also go with you to the Philos family to meet your grandfather, the head of the family."
"You, you want to go to my house?" Kaya was even more confused: "Aren't you afraid that my grandfather will kill you?"
"Why would he want to kill me?" Levi smiled mysteriously, "Only enemies need to fight and kill each other."
Are the Leader and the Firoz family enemies? Of course they are .
But the leader and head of the Fellowes family, Stevan Fellowes, is not necessarily an enemy.
Because Levi knew that Stevan was a selfish person who could ignore his family for his own personal gain.
And this selfish guy now needs something very much - something that is even more important than his own granddaughter - his life.
"Stevan is dying."
"And I can save him."
Levi suddenly realized that this accident was not only not a trouble, but also an opportunity.
An opportunity for him to intervene in the internal struggle of the Ferros family and defeat the largest chaebol family in Piltover from within:
"I think we'll become good friends."
