Chapter 1425: Publicly Breaking the Engagement
let her give up her position now."Su Hongzhang frowned: "I understand what you're saying. I also planned to make Xiao Bo the vice president and his sister his assistant before."But as you can see, it...Dennis was astonished, even though Alisha's actions had deeply stirred their nerves as siblings, she didn't intend to break the engagement.
Because marriage alliances are an extremely important strategy for their family, and also a trump card in her hand, she would never give it up until a critical moment.
I could never have expected her younger brother to publicly propose a breakup.
"Olivier, what are you doing Come down here right now."
Seeing this scene, Dennis Ton could no longer sit still and rushed to the stage to pull Olivier.
"Everyone, my brother had too much to drink, you can't take his words seriously..."
She was trying to explain to the audience below, attempting to salvage this broken engagement, when suddenly a big slap landed right across her face.
This slap was crisp and resounding, echoing throughout the entire banquet hall, once again shocking everyone.
Everyone in the upper circles of the Imperial Capital knows that Denise is the queen of the Berrick family. Normally, no one would dare to provoke her, yet today, Olivier actually hit her sister. Has he gone mad
Dennis Ton covered his swollen cheek with one hand, looking utterly shocked. He never thought his own brother would dare lay a hand on him.
"Dare you hit me"
"What's wrong with you I'm hitting you because I want to, what business is it of yours"
Olivier reeked of liquor and pointed at Dennis's nose, yelling, "I was cuckolded! Why can't I break off the engagement Because green wasn't yours to begin with, right"
I am the eldest son of the Berrick family, and I haven't found a woman. Why should I hang myself on this tree Today, I'm going to break off the engagement, no one can stop me.
Then, he shouted to the audience below: "I keep my word, I will never marry this woman Aliceca in my life. She can like whoever she wants, it has nothing to do with me."
"Crazy! You're crazy, get down here right now!"
Even though Dennis was cunning, he was currently so angry that his whole body was trembling.
"You tell me to go down, and I'll go down Why should I listen to you Who do you think you are"
Olivier swayed and said, "Do you really think you're so great Look at what you've done these past few days, has anything been successful"
First, they asked me to get Pike to snatch Ye Bufan's woman, and then have the Lorraine family fight with him until both were destroyed. Well Did it work Not at all! Instead, we ended up giving them a $100 million bonus!
The moment he finished speaking, it was like a thunderclap, causing a huge uproar at the entire party. No one had expected that the heir of the Berick family would suddenly drop such a bombshell.
You know, things like this shouldn't even be brought up in public, but now Olivier is just going around saying them!
Dennis was even more surprised, never expecting her own brother to say such a thing. She didn't know how to respond for a moment.
And the Lorien family members all changed color, especially Romonsis. Though she had brought back Silvara before and basically understood the situation,
But that is just the truth, there is no evidence. The Berrick family could easily deny it, and it's completely different from what Olivier himself said today.
Dennisston, after his shock, hysterically cried out, "Olivier, you're insane, do you know what you're saying"
“Of course I know, nobody can stop me today. I'm going to tell everything.” Olivier continued, “You later sent people into the Lorraine family and kidnapped Helena, the High Priestess in yellow robes from the Divine Court, trying to frame Ye Bufan and have him killed by the Divine Court.”
And the result You failed again. Not only did they suffer no losses, but they were also awarded the Golden Holy Cross medal by the Divine Court, received a 100 million dollar reward, and even won Helena's heart.
"This is your plan You're not harming anyone, you're doing them a favor! This self-righteous woman, you haven't accomplished anything and still act like you're superior, ordering me around. Who do you think you are"
After Olivier finished speaking, the entire party fell silent. Everyone was stunned into silence.
To say that using Pik against Ye Bufan was a bombshell was an understatement; this statement was akin to a thunderbolt from the heavens, causing ripples of shock and awe in everyone's hearts. This matter involved the Divine Court and the supreme authority of the Divine Court Patriarch, making it incredibly sensitive.
At that moment, all eyes in the room were on Dennis.
Even though Dennis's usual cunning was on full display, a hint of panic now flickered in his eyes.
"Don't listen to him, he's just drunk and talking nonsense. All of this is fake, it never happened..."
"Could Ramos possibly miss such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity He stepped forward and asked, "Olivier, are you sure you're telling the truth"
"Of course it's true, not a bit of it is false." Olivier elaborated, "That night she sent our family's hidden master, Anderson, and he used an invisibility charm. "
After that talisman was used, no one could detect his presence, so he could freely enter and exit the Lorin family. Even the scarlet archbishop couldn't detect him...
This statement leaves nothing unsaid, laying bare Dennis's entire plan for all to see.
Those from the Shadow Moss and the Divine Court were all enlightened. No wonder they could abduct Helen under layers of protection, it turned out there was something like an invisibility charm existing.
Seeing that there was no way to turn things around, Danteston sat down on the ground, completely losing his composure.
Casillas' expression was terrifyingly grim as he approached, his voice cold and menacing. "This matter, the Berrick family must give our divine court an explanation."
"I... I..."
It all came so suddenly, Dennis had no time to think, let alone come up with an answer.
If someone else had been in her place, she could have easily denied it, after all there was no evidence. But the one standing there was her own younger brother. No matter what she said, people wouldn't believe her.
"Blasphemy against the temple, your House Berrick will surely pay the price."
Casillas originally considered the existence of the Black Wizard Alliance and Helena's safety, and didn't intend to use force. But now the situation must be resolved.
He turned his head to look at the crowd, his expression grave as he said, “On behalf of the Pantheon, I formally announce that, from this moment forward, the Berick family will become the Pantheon’s eternal enemy.”
Whoever befriends the Berrick family will be dealt with.
"Uh..."
Everyone present was silent, but inwardly they were in an uproar.
I have to say Casillas' move this time was ruthless. While he didn't use force, it was enough to deal a heavy blow to the Berrick family, after all, the influence of the Divine Court is immense.
As the head of the household, Ramos naturally knew how to seize this opportunity. He immediately stepped forward and said, "On behalf of the Lorin family, I formally declare that from today onwards, we will sever all ties with the Berick family, including economic dealings. Everyone, please state your position as well."
The Lorin family were already enemies of the Beric family, so it wasn't surprising they were the first to take a side. The most crucial point was that Ramos directly demanded that everyone present declare their allegiance immediately. This forced families in a neutral position to make a decision right away. I kill them, shouldn't I""You are right, my son wants to kill you, so you should just stand there and let him."Because I am the Emperor, all under heaven are my subjects. I make you live, and I make...
