Chapter 73 The Franklin Family
Luoshe and others left, taking the bodies of Cooper and others with them. Shallan also returned to the mansion with Sally and Ode. Since he had to go to the ruins with Ailan to conduct archaeological activities early tomorrow morning, Shallan simply took today's leave and made good preparations at home. He was not the kind of young kid who knew nothing. Shallan knew from his experience in his previous life that no matter in that world or this world, it was usually not without danger for ordinary people to explore the ruins for archaeological purposes.
Walking up the stairs of the mansion, Shalan suddenly saw Vanessa walking down the stairs with Keda. He smiled slightly, bowed to Vanessa, and said, "Please accept my condolences."
Vanessa looked at Shallan and finally couldn't help but tear off the mask of a good mother. She sneered and passed by Keda and Shallan and quickly left the mansion. She wanted to know how the Cynthia City Police Department judged Cooper's death, so as to refer to how to deal with this matter next.
Seeing Vanessa leaving, Shalan knew that Vanessa had finally decided to break up with him. He smiled and didn't care. He turned around and went back to his room. For Shalan, dealing with Vanessa was only a matter of time. However, dealing with Vanessa had to be done after dealing with the Franklin family. As long as the Franklin family fell, Vanessa would be just an ordinary woman who could be destroyed with just a breath.
…
As the sun sets, the Franklin Manor on the outskirts of Ukrainian City is filled with golden splendor. If it were not for the consideration of the face of the King of Greenland, the Franklin Manor would definitely be several times more magnificent. In the eyes of the Franklin family, they are really very low-key for the sake of the face of the monarchy.
At this time, in the largest office of the Franklin family, an old man with gray hair but well-groomed, wearing a luxurious yet elegant shirt, was looking at the message transmitted from the Cynthia City Police Station. He read it three times before taking off his reading glasses.
"It seems that the murderer is really not Hasid, but we cannot rule out the possibility that Roll secretly hired someone to kill Cooper. However, no matter what evidence we have now, I am afraid there is no way to prove that Cooper's death is related to the Werman family.
Unfortunately, if it can be proven that he is related to the Werman family, even if it is just a little bit, I can make that kid Roll pay a huge price.
Cooper is a piece of shit. It's fine when he's alive, but he's useless after he dies. He's really an insult to the bloodline of my Franklin family."
As soon as the old man finished speaking, a young man of similar age to Shalan came over with a cup of black tea, placed it next to the old man, and said with a smile: "Grandpa, don't worry so much about this matter. Your health is the most important. Doesn't the Werman family have Aunt Vanessa and Shaman? I think with the support of our Franklin family, Earl Werman will not be so blind to the situation that he will give the title to his useless eldest son, right? Moreover, even if he eventually gives the title to his eldest son, we can still make it happen so that Shaman will become the future Earl Werman."
The old man took a sip of the black tea brought by the young man, nodded with satisfaction, and said to the young man: "Ryan, you still know grandpa's taste. Only your black tea in this family can make me feel comfortable. As for the Werman family, I have recently discovered that Luo Er has started to make moves in secret.
It's just that your stupid aunt didn't notice anything unusual, and those people around her were kicked out by Luo Er before, with good reasons, so there was no possibility of refusal. She allowed the servants to bully the maids in the manor. It's shameful to talk about this. I have nothing to say about how she used such a good subordinate. I am speechless when I call her stupid because she is my daughter."
The young Ryan reached out and gently patted the old man's shoulder, still looking calm and calm: "Grandpa, our Franklin family's plan is nothing more than to find a noble with a decent history as a springboard to officially enter the aristocratic class, and then enter the upper class of the Kingdom of Greenland, and finally enter the Seven Kingdoms of Orlan.
Although Aunt Vanessa did not have such a smooth journey with the Werman family, it went very smoothly with Aunt Vanna and Uncle Xiada. Marquis Dai Qiong of the Black Mountain Kingdom and Countess Rainforest of the Saint Jones Kingdom obeyed Aunt Vanna and Uncle Xiada's orders. "
Listening to the young man's words, the old man nodded: "Strictly speaking, our Franklin family only needs a springboard, but our Franklin family is located in the Kingdom of Greenland after all. It is best to enter the political arena from the Kingdom of Greenland. Although the Black Mountain Kingdom and the Saint Jones Kingdom are not impossible, it is inconvenient for our Franklin family to be there after all.
Moreover, even if the Werman family cannot be used as a springboard for us, I cannot let them have it too easy, otherwise where will the face of our Franklin family be!"
"Grandpa is right. Our Franklin family really cannot lose face."
Reaching out and gently patting Ryan's hand, the old man continued, "Ryan, it's a pity that your father died too early, otherwise I wouldn't have to be so tired, and neither would you. It's just that I have many sons and daughters, but countless fools and wastes. Only your father is the one who suits my heart the most, and he is also an absolutely smart man. Unfortunately...
Therefore, you will be the only heir of the Franklin family in the future. This is something that no one can change. Therefore, you must look like the future patriarch of our Franklin family. Even the prince of the Kingdom of Greenland cannot stand above you. Do you have confidence?"
"Of course, Grandpa, there is no doubt about it. I have recently found my future university destination. I plan to go to the University of Birona in our city of Yukxin."
"University of Virona... History or Law?"
"Of course it's the law department. Isn't the key to our Franklin family's continued success our familiarity with the law? In the future, I want to develop the Franklin family. Those places where the law can't be overthrown are the real way to make money."
Nodding slowly, the old man said to Ryan with satisfaction: "You are right. Our Franklin family is a huge family business, and it is definitely among the top three in the Seven Nations Alliance of Europe. We are the only one without a royal or ducal family background. We rely on our familiarity with the laws of various countries. Only in this way can we prevent those greedy beasts from attacking our Franklin family. I am relieved that you can understand this!"
"This is all from grandpa's teaching. All thanks to grandpa." After the words fell, Ryan, who was standing behind the old man, flashed a hint of mockery in his eyes. He looked at the old man in front of him as if he was looking at a stinky pork, full of contempt and disgust.
