“How is that possible?”

Sir Brad and Earl Downey were both dumbfounded and Kirkel even wanted to scream. Kirkel was the Deputy Director of the Department of Economics and Industry, how would he not know about the economic resolution of the European Union?

“The leaders of the European Union made the decision during their joint meeting.”

Eddie hung up and he looked sullen.

The others were all speechless.

The Joint Summit Meeting was the highest decision-making body in the entire Europe where the leaders of every country partic.i.p.ated. Once they made a decision, no one in Europe could disagree. The politicians all seemed powerless in front of the leaders of the European countries and even the Lance Family would be unable to dissuade them.

“What could make all the leaders agree? It’s impossible. Isn’t North Qiong Corp a Chinese company? Did the Chinese government help?” someone doubted.

“The European Union would never succ.u.mb to China. There must be something I don’t know.” Eddie shook his head and made another phone call.

“Mr. Clair, didn’t you promise to me not to let North Qiong Corp enter the European market?”

A furious voice came from the receiver. “I did, but you didn’t tell me Chen Beixuan was behind North Qiong Corp!”

“Who?” Eddie was shocked.

“You mean the legendary Chinese Overlord Chen Beixuan, who destroyed the European Union’s Black Sea Fleet?”

Everyone in the villa immediately turned pale.

Having been in the United States, he had no idea that Chen Fan had stirred up troubles across all of Europe. When Chen Fan was creating the super weapon near London, all of the officials in the area were completely frightened. The name Chen Beixuan was a total nightmare for them.

“Yes, that’s him.” The other party grunted.

“Chen Beixuan requested to let the North Qiong Corp into the European market and he would leave Europe in exchange, so the leaders of all countries agreed unanimously. Compared to Chen Beixuan, North Qiong Corp is nothing to them. I’m warning you not to offend North Qiong Corp. You and your Lance Family can’t afford the consequences.”

Then, he hung up.

Eddie was pale and livid; he was so angry he wanted to throw his phone on the floor.

The man on the other side of the phone was a heavyweight from the European Union called Clair. Even though Eddie was the heir of the Lance Family, Clair wasn’t someone he could offend.

“Is it really Chen Beixuan?” Earl Downey said in a panicked tone.

The others were trembling.

Although they had heard about Chen Beixuan every day, he was a superior Overlord that stood on an equal footing with the superpowers. They were only some insignificant councillors and directors; how could they be on a par with Chen Fan?

“Is Chen Beixuan powerful?”

Eddie came from the United States so he didn’t know as much as the Europeans did.

“He’s not only powerful, but also like a demon,” Earl Downey said.

Sir Brad suddenly got up and said, “Mr. Lance, I’ve got something to do. Goodbye.” Then, the others also started to leave as if they were hiding from a bane.

Viscount York was startled.

He thought that North Qiong Corp would give in; he had never expected such a twist.

“Is Chen Beixuan the Chinese man called Chen Fan?” Viscount York trembled and felt like he had gone through h.e.l.l.

Soon, Eddie and Earl Downey were the only ones left in the hall.

Eddie looked ghastly.

Earl Downey wanted to leave but he couldn’t move.

“Tell me, what’s so special about Chen Beixuan? Why are they so scared of him?” Eddie said.

As Earl Downey explained, Eddie finally knew what Chen Fan had done in Europe.

He destroyed the Black Sea Fleet, eliminated the Dark World Arbitration Department, slaughtered a dozen ancient families and created a weapon comparable to nuclear weapons, all these things made Eddie’s jaw drop.

“Is he human? He’s a Deity.”

When Eddie thought about Chen Fan’s contemptuous look, he was immediately enraged and there was a glint of anger in his eyes. “Chen Beixuan, you might be powerful but you’re definitely not the world’s dominator!”

Chen Fan stayed for a few more days in London and was about to leave after witnessing the signing of the agreement between the European Union and North Qiong Corp. And yet, an unexpected person came.

“Mr. Chen, I came to apologize for the other time.”

Eddie was well-mannered.

“Forget about it.”

Chen Fan waved his hand.

Why would he care about a nonent.i.ty like Eddie?
