Chapter 516 - Chapter 516: Meeting Alone (2/2)
“Could the Knights of the Round Table really be destroyed by such a young girl?”
“What the hell is going on with the Milore Family? Why would they betray us at such a critical moment?”
“The Lakatos Family has restricted our energy…”
…
Everyone present seemed to be experiencing the end of the world, each one visibly panicked.
Just as everyone was arguing, an assistant hurriedly ran up to Fox.
“Mr. Fox, Chen Yu is here!”
Fox abruptly stood up, “Who did you say, Chen Yu?”
As soon as these words were spoken, the scene immediately quieted down, and all eyes focused on the assistant, startling the young girl.
“Yes, that Mr. Chen. He said he has something he wants to discuss with you alone.”
The heads of the major families were suddenly restless.
“What do you mean by ’discuss alone’? Mr. Fox, could it be that you have already arranged something with Chen Yu?”
“Did you sell us out to the Tong Group, or do you have some secret contract with them?”

It was a sensitive moment; it wouldn’t take long for these people’s wealth to vanish, and the slightest word could arouse their suspicions.
Especially regarding the topic of Chen Yu!
Everyone knew that Tong Ya was Chen Yu’s wife; Tong Ya was leading the major capitals in besieging them. With Chen Yu appearing at this time and requesting a private talk with Fox, anyone would be suspicious.
Fox was somewhat panicked; in these perilous times, he still needed the support of the major families.
“Tell Chen Yu I won’t see him alone. Whatever he has to say, he can say it in front of everyone!”
The assistant didn’t dare delay and rushed out of the hall. It wasn’t long before Chen Yu walked into the hall with large strides.
“Mr. Fox, I just wanted to see you alone and catch up, but I didn’t expect you wouldn’t even afford me that courtesy!”
Fox’s face was grim. The Knights of the Round Table were in such a state, what courtesy could he give?
“Mr. Chen, let’s not talk about the past! You are well aware of the assets controlled by the Knights of the Round Table. Should the wealth of our families disappear, the entire world would be thrown into chaos!”
Chen Yu sat down in a chair he’d pulled up next to him, appearing utterly unconcerned.
“That’s a bit of a stretch. It’s only your families that would disappear, not the wealth; it would simply transfer!”
“The Lakato Family, the Milore Family, even families like William’s and Charlie’s, could fully take over your fortunes.”
Fox slammed his hand on the table hard.
“Mr. Chen, do you really want to push us to the brink? Don’t forget, the Knights of the Round Table possess not only assets but also the world’s strongest technological power. Push us too far, and destroying the world is not out of the question!”
Chen Yu laughed as if he’d heard a funny joke.
“Mr. Fox, can’t you read a map? All the families around us now stand with me. The Childe Family has been surrounded, and no matter how strong your technological power might be, what can you do?”
Fox’s pupils dilated suddenly, and his body slumped down.
