Chapter 232: Do you remember Brighton a month ago?

'Hey, remember that huge case from over a month ago? The one where Brook Investment sued 45 investment companies, including Caribbean, Louis, St. Martin and New Dawn, for 100 billion in the South Brighton Court? It seems that there has been no news for a long time. Could it be that everyone has already forgotten about him?'

'How could there be such a big case? I don't think there has ever been anything like it in the United States. However, since the case heated up last month, it seems that there has been no news this month.'

'Exactly! I don't even know what's going on with this case. You're always so well-informed about things in the financial markets, so why don't you tell me, the court hasn't ruled yet, right?'

'Of course not, if it had, the media would have exploded, wouldn't they? It's still in the debate stage. As far as I know, the court held its twelfth hearing just last week. The court's stance is clearly biased towards the 45 investment companies. It's estimated that the court will not only refuse to award compensation, but will also reject the lawsuit filed by Brock Investment.

'That's a real shame. To be honest, I was really hoping the court would award a compensation of 100 billion yuan. After all, that would be a miracle!'

'It's not that simple! You should think about who is behind those 45 investment companies: the Brighton Bank and the Addams family. That's our biggest bank in Brighton, and it's very famous throughout the Commonwealth. Not to mention the Addams family, as the family that created the first federal dynasty and actually controls Brighton Bank, how could he possibly allow his own industry to be sued? You know how the rich are: the richer they are, the stingier they get. So the Addams family would never agree to pay even a billion dollars, let alone 100 million. So it's just crazy for little Brock Investment to try to take down those 45 companies!

'That's not necessarily true. I heard that the reason why Brook Investment Company dared to take this lawsuit is that they are not fighting alone. Behind them are the three families of Candini, Lawrence and Lowe Willis. None of them are a match for the Addams family, but together they could still cause the Addams family a lot of trouble.'

'So I say you don't know, you just don't know. If it were just the Adams and the Kennedys going at it, it would be hard to say who would win, but you forget that the Adams are the first dynasty of the federation. If any idiot really forgets that, they're going to be in big trouble!'

'Really? So what happened next? It's as if you know, isn't it?'

'If you bought fewer Playboys and took your eyes off the big-breasted ladies and paid more attention to the news, you'd know too. Just last Christmas, the Rockefeller empire also got involved. His Rockefeller Bank publicly announced that it would spend 30 billion to buy shares in these 45 investment companies, and also acquired more than 500 million US dollars of CDS contracts on the market.'

'My God, Rockefeller is a blood brother of the Addams family, and he is actually supporting him so much!'

'Maybe there's some kind of dirty deal going on that we don't know about, but with the full support of the Rockefeller consortium, I don't think anything will happen for the time being. But as God is my witness, I always feel that this matter is not that simple. If Brookfield can orchestrate such a lawsuit, why can't they think of the Adams family's capabilities? Could it be that their intelligence has suddenly left them?'

The two pulled up their trousers and left the toilet. After they had gone, the door to the toilet in the middle behind them opened and a relatively short white man walked out. This was Massachusetts Governor Edward.

The Governor looked at the backs of the two big talkers and said with a wry smile, 'You're half right. There really are idiots who have forgotten the title of the first dynasty of the Addams family title. It wasn't that their intelligence had suddenly left them, but that someone with intelligence had suddenly left them. It was ridiculous that the bad drove out the good, and the idiots had dug their own pit.'

At that moment suddenly the bathroom door opened, and his secretary walked in to inform him that the others had arrived. Edward nodded, and he immediately walked out the door, washed his hands and then left the bathroom.

Edward Edward had an important meeting with a client in the restaurant today, but he didn't expect to hear such an interesting conversation while waiting in the bathroom. Perhaps many people like to talking about things that are far away, but they probably don't realise that their casual conversations are, to a large extent, the facts of what has already happened.

'Mr Governor, please go this way, the hall is that way, and this way is the private room!'

Suddenly a sudden cry brought Edward back to his senses. He then saw that he had already walked into the hall, and the guests dining here were all looking at him with surprised eyes. After all, it is not easy to meet the governor just by going out for dinner.

'I'm I'm sorry, I think I've taken a wrong turn. I hope I haven't disturbed you. I hope I haven't spoiled your meal.

After saying that Edward turned around and left to take another route. No one chased after him, because this was an upscale restaurant, and all the people who could afford to eat here were upper class. Even if there were some fanatics, they would be stopped by the secretary and there was no need to worry.

Finally Edward arrived in his own private box, where two other friends were already waiting: Lawrence and Louis. The three of them represented the three major families mentioned by the toilet critic.

'Our our distinguished guests will be arriving soon, and to show our respect, we must restrain our appetites.'

Edward said teasingly, but Lawrence and Louis just smiled formulaically, obviously not in a very good mood at the moment.

Just like that way, half an hour passed quickly, and the door to the private room opened. A very charming figure walked in and said, 'I'm sorry, I got held up on the way, I'm late, so I'll treat you to dinner today.'

As the representatives of the three most powerful families, who are second only to the Addams Family in terms of prestige on any occasion, and there is even a state governor, they waited in the private room for half an hour but put on a smile and said, ' It's fine. Ms Lin has her own things to do, and we all understand. We can appreciate that. After all, we often encounter things that make us unable to get away, too.'

'Non Thank you all for your understanding.'

She is Lin Muqing, and as she came in, she thanked the three people on this side. Her secretary Ah Min from Gangcheng and lawyer Alan followed her.

Lin Mu Lin Muqing was as beautiful as ever. She was wearing a slim-fitting little suit that, although not deliberate, accentuated her perfect figure to the fullest. However, in this private room, neither Edward nor the others had the heart to look at her any longer, but instead sat there with furrowed brows.

Very and got straight to the point. Lin Muqing sat down and asked, 'Okay, I'm here now, so you can tell me what you want from me.'

Facing this question, Edward and the other two, even though they were all old hands, still felt a little awkward. In the end, Edward said, 'Ms. Lin Mucheng, you must be aware of recent events. beginning, the Rockefeller family has fully entered into the war between us and the Addams family. Not only did they acquire the shares of the 45 companies we sued, they also purchased many CD contracts.'

Edward Edward paused deliberately here, but as Lin Muerqing showed no intention of speaking, he had to continue: 'This completely disrupted our rhythm. Our original idea was to use this lawsuit to send a signal to the market that the CDS contract has lost its credibility, and to use the collapse of the CDS market and the pressure of the lawsuit against the 45 investment companies to force the Adams family to resign.'

Edward sighed exhaled: 'However, with Rockefeller's capital entering now, not only has the lawsuit become more difficult, but the market has also been completely stabilised with that 500 million CDS contract, and all plans have gone bankrupt.'

Lin Muqing took up Edward's train of thought and asked them, 'So the reason you asked me out today is that you hope I can get Zhou Ming to help you turn the tables?'

Edward and the other two nodded sheepishly.

At this, Lin Mu Qing looked at the three of them and suddenly asked, 'You can all be considered aristocrats, right?'

Hearing this sudden question, the three of them were stunned. They couldn't understand why Lin Muqing would suddenly ask such a question.

Lin Muqing not intend to let them really answer, she continued, 'The three families of the Kennedys, Lawrence and Lowell each have a history of at least a hundred years. If you are not aristocrats, I'm afraid no one is. So in the past I was skeptical when I was told that aristocrats are the last guys with a sense of shame, but now that I've met you, I'm completely convinced.'

These words left Edward and the other two were stunned for a moment. Before they could blush, they heard Lin Muqing continue, 'You say you're embarrassed. When Zhou Ming wanted to completely destroy the Addams family, who pushed him out of the way?'

Facing Lin Muqing's Qing's questioning, Edward explained with a wry smile: 'I think Ms. Lin Muqing may have misunderstood something. Our original idea was simply that Ming Zhou had done too much and used too much brain power. We hoped to give him a holiday and let him adjust his state of mind. After all, if he were to fall ill as a result, we would all be very sad.'

Lin Muqing smiled at Edward, 'It is said that politicians are the best actors. It seems that Mr. Governor has grasped the essence. Then when I came here, I saw a five-year-old child outside. Mr Governor, why don't you tell the five-year-old child outside about the whole story and your explanation, and see if he believes you? Anyway, I can't convince myself to believe it. I just think it's all you guys...'

Lin Muqing pointing her finger at Edward Lawrence and Louis, she said in a stern tone, 'At first, when you thought you had the upper hand, you drove Zhou Ming away and wanted to enjoy the fruits of victory alone. Now, the Adams family has found help, the situation has taken a turn for the worse. You feel that you are no longer a match, so you thought of bringing him back. This is really what you are thinking, isn't it?'

Edward. The three of them lowered their heads in shame at Lin Muzhen's words. If they could, they really wouldn't want to stay here for another moment. Although they were representatives of their family and had thick skin, but to be told off like this by a woman was still very embarrassing, and their pride was incredibly frustrated; however, there were some things that they could not help.

In the end, Edward Edward looked up and said, 'Ms. Lin Muqing, I know that some explanations are very pale right now, but there is one point that I still hope to respect Mr. Zhou Ming's meaning. After all, this is his hard work.'

Lin Muqing's face did not change: 'Of course I understand, otherwise I wouldn't have come here today...'

Edward and the others were rejoicing, when they heard Lin Muqing continue, 'But I can't guarantee whether he will have time now. After all, California is also a good place blessed by God. Perhaps Mr. Zhou Ming doesn't have the big heart you think he does.'
