Old Kate looked at her domineering granddaughter with a headache. Among the children of the third generation, the granddaughter Adele is undoubtedly the most dazzling. Whether it is source power, combat skills, ability to manage the family, etc., they are all outstanding in the third generation. The flaws are probably her wild horse-like temperament and the fact that she is a woman.

If Adele were a boy, Kate would have desperately nominated her as the first heir. But she is not after all, and the old Kate also admitted that it is not that a woman is necessarily less than a man. But it is also undeniable that they are always overwhelmed in some places. It has nothing to do with ability, but is restricted by the issue of gender.

In the history of more than 400 years of the Federation, there have also been several female presidents. However, the term of office of these female presidents is usually not long, and they often pass through the political circle like a meteor, leaving their brilliant and eye-catching strokes, and then disappear.

So in old Kate's heart, he loves Adele very much. But there is one thing, even if the heirs in the front row are insufficient, Adele will not be allowed to take charge of the family. In the end, Adele's future will stop at the family elder, which is predictable.

As for Jass and his brothers, in fact, these two children are not as unbearable as Adele said. It's just that Adele's light is so dazzling that the two stars of them are dimmed.

In the evaluation of old Kate, either of the two will take over the position of patriarch. Even if he can't make progress, he is more than conservative.

Old Kate gave a light cough and said, "Alright, Adele, let's talk about where your money went. That's your personal money, but the amount is too big, I have to ask about it."

"It's nothing, grandpa, I took them to bet." Adele said lightly.

"Bet?" Old Kate raised his eyebrows: "Death Ring? Who did you vote for?"

"The number 1." Adele said complacently: "I have a hunch, I will make a lot of money."

"Number 1?" Jas and his brother looked at each other and laughed: "Adele, your head is not broken, right? Who doesn't know, the number one guy in the previous death rings usually die very quickly ."

"That's all previous years!" Adele raised his head, it is not difficult to look at her brother: "You would say that, it means that you have no investment vision and no enterprising guts. My dear brother, maybe You still have to pay attention to the news. As of yesterday, that number 1 was still alive and killed six people! Of course, if it were you, there must be none."

"You!" Jas stood up, a burgundy color on his face.

Adele said lazily: "Besides, you haven't heard that Mr. Horne also made a heavy bet on this number 1. Isn't Mr. Horne's head also broken?"

Justin couldn't say a word.

"Jace, sit down." Old Kate said solemnly, and said, "The whole of Babylon knows about Horn's betting. But Adele, you see, except for the fact that you cast 10 million without permission not long ago. Besides, do you see anyone putting a heavy bet on this teenager? I think your approach is too risky."

"Grandpa, are you a friend of Mr. Horne?" Adele asked, "During the years you know him, have you seen him do any loss-making business? I have studied Horne. Mr.'s life, every decision he made, every transaction is almost a must."

"If Horn is as good as you said, ten years ago, Berncord would not have slipped from the ranking of the family to the celebrity." Adele's other brother Ted said.

"Oh, it seems that you have also studied Mr. Horn's deeds." Adele raised an eyebrow.

Ted stood up and said: "Grandpa always said that whether it is our enemy or allies, we must understand every detail of them. It's nothing, I just do what Grandpa said."

"Really an obedient puppy." Adele nodded.

"What did you say!" Ted immediately changed color. Their sister has this ability, and can always light them up like a gunpowder barrel with a sentence or two.

Adele sat on the sofa and ignored Ted's anger. She shrugged and said: "You are not deaf, can't you hear what I say? Okay, I don't want to entangle you on this issue. Listen. So, under the series of inconspicuous tactics of the Alexander family, Mr. Horn was not defeated, but he did not fight at all. During that time, he was depressed and ignored the provocations of the Alexander family at all. The ranking slipped. But even so, Berncord’s back garden is still full of flowers. None of their five colonial stars have fallen. Over a dozen business chains are still operating, and the family’s profitability continues at a steady 5% per year. Up."

"Beskard only lost their reputation, not their strength! Their heritage was not affected at all!" Adele sat up a little bit: "Also, according to my observations. Recently. In the past few years, Beskod has invested more budget in family force. This budget has been gradually increasing since five years ago. What does this mean, my dear brother? It means that Mr. Horn is ready to take action. Beskod will once again show its eloquence to all those who despise it in Babylon. In the foreseeable years in the future, this family must be in an upswing period. It is very likely that Beskod will return to the family. , Even, the sword refers to the rich!"

Don't mention the two brothers Jas and Ted, even the old Kate was deeply shocked by Adele's prediction. After the old Kate adjusted his mood, he said: "But all this is just your guess."

"Of course, if I have full confidence, then I am a prophet, grandpa." Adele waved his hand: "But for me, this is enough. Don't say that we and Bethkod are My friend, even if I just exchange 10 million for the kindness of a family that may enter a wealthy family, I think this business has been done. Grandpa, don’t you think that our Mosen family stayed in the celebrity for too long, it’s time to move Moved position."

Old Kate's eyes lit up immediately, and he nodded and said: "It is indeed too long. It has been 127 years since our Morsen family started as a business and now we have become a famous celebrity!"

"Yes, if at this time, we catch Beth Kod, who will rush into Yun Xiao's rocket. Forget it, it shouldn't be difficult to mix with a family." Adele said here, the body Leaning forward: "And grandpa, aren't you interested in Mr. Horn's sudden heavy shot? In fact, I know a little bit of inside information."

Old Kate looked at the granddaughter immediately.

Adele deliberately glanced at her two elder brothers, and said with a smile: "But I want to just tell you about this. It is better for outsiders to know less about it."

Jace and Ted suddenly exploded, and the two got up in anger, their eyes widened, and their expressions were ferocious as if they were about to swallow Adele alive. It was Adele who pretended to look at Kate pitifully, and God knew that with her means, even if Jas and Ted joined forces, there was no way to use her.

Old Kate shook his head secretly, waved and said: "You two go out first."

"Grandpa!"

Jace's chest rises and falls, and he wants to say something. Ted shook his head and pulled him out of the door. So dying, Adele added another sentence: "By the way, help us close the door."

After the two angrily heirs left, Adele also changed his face with a serious expression: "Shortly after the youngsters on the surface arrived in Babylon, Mr. Horn used his own channel to get the caller in the training building. Allen’s teenage blood. A few days later, he publicly placed a heavy bet on this teenage boy. Grandpa, don’t you think there is any connection with this?"

"Also, we all know what happened to the Beskard's house ten years ago. If these two things are linked together, Mr. Horn's actions will have the answer."

Old Kate lost his voice: "You mean, that kid is Horn's grandson, Lanni's son?"

Adele nodded and said: "I can't think of a more reasonable explanation."

Old Kate showed a thoughtful expression. Ten years ago, something great happened on Babylon. But this matter was limited to the circle of nobles, that is Horn's daughter Lanni eloped with a surface man. This was a shame among the nobles, and it was a blow to Bethkod's reputation, and it also depressed Horn.

Everyone knows how much Horne loves this daughter, and in the same way, Horne is going to fight for Lannie. Dispatch the family powerhouse master to chase and kill the madman who dared to peep at his treasure, however, Lanni still chose that man. The departure of his daughter caused Horn to be hit hard, and his will was depressed, and only then did Alexander take advantage of his vacancy to enter.

In the end, Beskod squeezed the ranking of the family and slipped into the list of famous celebrities.

If you count time, Adele's inference is not impossible. Especially taking blood and betting, this is even more important.

Old Kate raised her head and said: "In other words, Horn is going to take back his grandson."

"No, to be precise, it is the future leader who took back Beskod." Adele corrected: "Grandpa, don't forget, Beskod is facing an embarrassing situation with no successor. After Horn , None of his sons can be worthy of the important task. As for the third-generation heir, as weak as my idiot eldest brother... Oh, it turned out to be my mistake. In short, Mr. Horn is likely to take this grandson as a continuation. Human training, if he can survive the death ring."

"In that case, we also have to be prepared." Old Kai said in a special way.

"Don't worry about this, I have already thought it out." Adele stood up, raised her eyebrows and said, "As long as Mr. Horn adds the boy named Allen to the family heir sequence, grandpa, you I’ll marry him. With my looks and methods, I can guarantee that Mr. Horn will not find a good candidate. Besides, he can still get the help of our Mosen family. Among the resources, the help from the wife's clan is also a force that cannot be ignored. Especially considering the future situation of that kid, Mr. Horn will definitely not refuse."

Old Kate nodded again, if Horn added Allen to the heir sequence. Because Alan did not grow up in the family, it is no exaggeration to say that he will be enemies on all sides by then. At this time, if the Mosen family were to help him, then Alan's path to the power would be much smoother, and this is what Horn would like to see. What's more, in this way, Adele can be properly removed from the family heir sequence, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone!
