Then there are the Brown family, the Dowell family, the Thomas family, the Garcia family, and the Rodriguez family, which represents the new aristocracy.
In addition, Irene family representative Irene Wo was also present.
The only family that hasn't arrived yet is the Mu family.
Mu Qingtian is one of the strongest branches of the Seron family and the second-ranked decision-maker on the island. Without his presence, the meeting could not proceed formally.
Everyone gathered together to chat more.
Ying Shi's grandmother was very suspicious: "How could someone know about the Fader's laboratory? Did someone leak the news on purpose?"
"Do you suspect the people on the island?" the patriarch of the Thomas family spoke.
In return, she crossed her hands on the table and said in a meaningful tone: "I didn't say that, but... it's impossible that the news was leaked for no reason. Whoever is outside now is the most suspicious."
"Are you referring to us, Mr. Ying?" Ailinwo was still dressed like a Taoist nun, with her hair neatly combed into a bun at the back, and her entire body wrapped in dull black, without any jewelry to embellish her look. She didn't look feminine at all, and she looked as rigid and wooden as many nuns.
None of the men and women present dared to underestimate her methods. Even the quick-tempered Grandma Ying Shi had to look her in the face when talking to her.
Just not very friendly.
"Humph, who knows. Your family is famous for being bold. I heard that the heir you chose before has a hidden vault outside, which contains a lot of your family's secrets and intends to use it to threaten you."
"Where did Mr. Ying hear this gossip?" Ailinwo said indifferently, "I didn't even know there was such a thing."
Grandma Yingshi didn't answer, but looked at her expressionlessly.
Irene Wo let her look at him and sat up straight: "She is dead, and the dead will not reveal secrets, not to mention that she doesn't know where the laboratory is. Even if she is still alive, she would not have done it. There is one more thing I hope you don't misunderstand. We were the first to notify everyone as soon as we got the news. If the leak was related to us, why should I do this?" "Maybe that's what you think, deliberately disrupting our thinking." The Shadow Family vowed to defend the orthodoxy of Theron, and naturally they had no good face for the Irene Family who wanted to marry the Mu family. Shadow Shi's grandmother was of a high generation, so she was very impolite in her words and deeds.
Ailinwo's face darkened, and he moved his lips to warn in a low voice: "Mr. Ying, I respect your status as an elder, please don't go too far."
"I was just saying it casually, why are you so excited?" Grandma Ying Shi just said a few sarcastic words to her, but she didn't mean to turn against her.
The two of them quarreled back and forth, attracting other people to watch the fun.
At this time, the gray-robed old man sitting in the upper seat knocked the teacup lightly, and the bottom of the cup hit the table with a crisp sound.
“Boom.”
The two people who were making such a fuss seemed to have pressed the pause button. Regardless of whether they were angry or not, without the person in a higher position saying anything, the two of them had already sat back in their seats and calmed down.
The ten elders raised their eyelids and gave instructions to the people hiding in the darkness.
"Go see why Mr. Mu hasn't come yet."
While talking.
The person who had not arrived yet pushed the door open.
Mu Qingtian was followed by the butler. After he came in, he sat directly in the second seat as if no one was around. He had an imposing aura as if a dark cloud was looming over his head.
As soon as he entered the room, he didn't care what other people thought of him. He only looked at the gray-robed old man in the upper position and said, "Let them all go out. I have something to tell you alone."
