Chapter 320: Chapter 320 Mutual Alliance

At Anchana Manor.

Brown Edward swirled a glass of red wine, sitting comfortably on the couch.

“This manor was built during the time of Louis III. Back then, the Edward Family also took part in its construction. By rights, this manor should also belong to the Edward Family. It’s a pity it has always been occupied by the Charlies family. Today, it has finally returned to its rightful owner,” he mused.

Fang Yuan stood by, pretending to gracefully touch each object.

Her decision to marry Brown was essentially a huge gamble. Had the Edward Family not won this commercial war, she would have been doomed along with the entire Edward Family.

But now, not only had the Edward Family won, but they had won very impressively. It wouldn’t be long before they could enter the East with the financial capital they controlled.

At that time, she could finally settle the score with the Zhao Family!

“But ultimately, this manor is still the private property of the Louisian royalty. Many families, upon acquiring the manor, choose to return it to the descendants of the Louis Family. Should we also extend this favor?” she questioned.

Fang Yuan was indeed somewhat intelligent, or else how could she have easily won the three-billion capital wager?

Brown stroked his chin, thinking it over.

“Although the Louis Family has declined, they still hold some standing in Europe. If we could use this manor to bring them over to our side, it would make swallowing up other families much easier!” he declared.

As he finished speaking, Brown suddenly stood up and clinked his glass against Fang Yuan’s.

“In this period, you have demonstrated a wisdom beyond that of mere mortals. Had it not been for you and my second uncle working together on the Smart Group, I might not have achieved what I have today. How about we nullify our previous marriage agreement and truly get married!” he proposed.

Fang Yuan trembled slightly, unsure of how to respond.

Marrying Brown would indeed be a good choice. It would not only allow her to step into high society in one go but also save her a lot of trouble.

However, she had a child in this world, which was always a risk.

“What’s the matter, not willing?” Brown’s tone carried a hint of urgency.

“That’s not it, I’m just a bit surprised!” she replied hastily.

Just as Fang Yuan was making an excuse, the butler hurriedly ran in, handing the tablet to Brown.

“Young Master Brown, there’s a big problem!” the butler exclaimed.

The screen was showing information about a myriad of companies.

Some small companies that they had previously beaten without any resistance had unexpectedly merged overnight into a big company.

“Yu Ya Limited?” Brown was furious and slammed the tablet on the ground. “Where did this company spring up from?”

The butler was startled and didn’t dare to utter a word but handed over a phone instead.

Brown quickly composed himself and answered the call.

“Brown, a new company has arrived in Frankfurt, and it seems they’re opposing us. Prepare immediately and convene an emergency board meeting!”

Carter’s voice sounded extremely authoritative, proving the severity of the situation.

Brown didn’t dare delay, sending messages to all directors at once. As he left, he also took Fang Yuan with him.

Fang Yuan had already gained actual power within the Edward Family and was present as Brown’s personal assistant.

Many of the Edward Family elders even admired Fang Yuan’s wisdom and had come to regard her as one of their own.

At the top floor of a commercial building, nearly all the elders of the Edward Family had gathered here.

After all, this was just a branch of theirs, so the meeting wasn’t too particular. A group of people, swirling their glasses, sat together, their faces extremely solemn.
