Chapter 1141
A bold speculation came to the old duke’s mind, could it be that L meant that Night Shocking would not live long?
This thought flashed through his mind, and the old duke’s face turned white as he looked around in panic, his heart beating like a drum in panic.
It seems that L has never let go of the hatred between the two families, and he must have sent someone to secretly plot against him ……
This is not a trivial matter, but must not involve our Louis family.
The old duke patted his heart and hurried upstairs to find Louis.
Louis was in his room, gleefully calling his friends to tell them he was getting married, and they were all happy for him ……
One of them happened to be one of the shareholders in the Paris Arena project and, hearing that Louis was getting married, said with a smile –
“No wonder, Mr. Night called several of us shareholders to meet at the Foothill Manor and you didn’t come, we were speculating if you two were having some kind of conflict, but it turns out it’s because you’re getting married? This is to accompany your future wife, too busy to take time off work, right?”
“Timothy called you all together? Did he mention me? Did he say what it was about?”
Louie was a little uneasy, it couldn’t be because he was with Leng Qianxue and Night ZhenTing was annoyed and wanted to pull out of the project, could it?
If he pulled out, then the project would be put on hold, and where would he find someone to fill in that large sum of money?
“Of course it’s because of the project, what’s wrong? Don’t you know?”
“I’m in E these days, busy with the wedding.” Although Louie was uneasy in his heart, he still trusted Night ZhenTing, “Just listen to ZhenTing about the project, he has more experience than me.”
“Okay, I’m going to the banquet soon, he should know about your wedding news, right?”
“Not yet, I called you first.”
“Then hurry up and let him know, we’ll celebrate the good news together tonight.”
“I ……”
“My wife is rushing me, I’ll hang up now.”
Hanging up the phone, Louis held the phone, all the joy he had just felt had disappeared and was replaced by a feeling full of sadness ……
He really didn’t know how to open his mouth to talk to Night Zhen Ting about this matter, nor did he know how to face him.
Even if he deliberately avoided it, the project still had to be carried out.
What was to be done about it?
“This is where you start to fret?” The old duke’s voice came and Louis was startled, turning around and asking in dismay, “Daddy, when did you come in?”
“A while ago.”
The old duke sat down on the sofa opposite him and the maids rushed to bring him coffee, he made a gesture and the two maids hurriedly retreated and closed the door behind them.
The old duke took a sip of coffee and said with a gloomy expression, “Before the news is released, Night Zhen Ting has already called a gathering of shareholders, it seems that he wants to withdraw from the project and catch us off guard.”
“I don’t think so ……”
Louis was a little apprehensive, in fact he had the same suspicion in his heart as his father ……
He had known Night Zhen Ting for so long and knew that guy was a bad one to mess with.
He had snatched his child’s mother away, and even the child, he must be very angry, even if he did something about it, it was normal ……
“You know in your heart that he won’t.” The old duke said without good grace, “Do you think Night Zhen Ting is a vegetarian?”
“Even if he does, I can understand.” Louis lowered his head, “In the end, I was the one who wronged him first, and I can’t blame him for wanting to cut me off.”
The old duke was furious, “They’ve been separated for a long time, it’s not like you’re taking away from him, so how can you be sorry? Besides, it’s not like you’re forcing Leng Qianxue to marry you …….”
“That’s true, but ……” Louis was still a little uneasy, “it will still be inevitably awkward to see each other in the future.”
Chapter 1142
“That’s right too.” The old duke solemnly admonished, “So during this recent period, you should not interact with him, it’s best to have less contact, and leave the project to others.”
In fact, when the old duke said this, he didn’t really want Louis to avoid embarra*sment, but wanted him to keep his distance from Night Zhen Ting.
That way, if any further conflict occurred between the Leng and Night families, it would not involve their family.
“That’s not good, is it?” Louie always felt uneasy, “Even if we have less interaction in the future, how can I still give him an explanation about the project?”
“And give an account of what?” The old duke didn’t think so, “I’m afraid that if he calls a shareholders’ meeting now, he wants to quit.”
“If he really wants to quit, then this project is over.” Louis frowned, “I’ve got nothing to show for it, I’m trying to prove myself, and if I give up halfway, I’ll be laughed at again.”
“In the past, I would have been worried about this, but now it’s different, you’re going to marry Qianxue soon, with Leng as a big backer, what’s there to fear from the Night family in the future?”
The old duke spoke with a clear mind, “L has always been uncomfortable with Night Zhen Ting, if he knew that Night Zhen Ting was withdrawing from the project, he would definitely be willing to join.”
“But ……”
“Well, don’t get your head in the clouds.” The old duke patted Louie’s shoulder, “The Leng and Night families are old enemies, you will soon become Leng Di Feng’s brother-in-law, keep your distance from Night Zhen Ting in the future.”
Louie’s heart was heavy and he bowed his head in silence.
“You, you’re just indecisive.” The old duke couldn’t see him like this, “Can’t you get your head around the situation? Now it’s not you who is sorry to Night Zhen Ting, it’s him who is unkind and unrighteous and has privately called the shareholders to impeach you ……”
“Daddy ……” Louis was about to speak when his phone rang, it was the same Ma Dong who had just called, he hastily answered it, “Hello, Ma Dong.”
The old duke snatched his phone straight away and turned it on the speaker.
“Louis, I have informed the other shareholders on your behalf about your marriage, everyone is happy for you, listen ……”
As soon as the words left his mouth, the voices of several other shareholders came from the other end of the phone, all congratulating Louis and saying that they must tell them when the date was set, and that they would definitely go to the wedding, no matter how busy they were.
Everyone was scrambling to say their blessings, and some of the family members were excitedly asking who the bride was, Louis was a bit confused and it took him a while to come to his senses and blurt out, “Where’s Zhen Ting?”
“Mr. Night just finished a meeting with us and went back to rest.” A director said, “I see he doesn’t look too good lately, maybe he’s tired from the death of his old man, by the way, he also brought his son out with him, he probably went back to the villa to be with him.”
“Louis ……” Ma Dong grabbed the phone and said, “I told him the news of your marriage, he asked me to say congratulations to you for him, and also asked you to remember to inform him when the date is set.”
Hearing this, Louis became even more nervous and asked in a panic: “What else did he say?”
“Nothing else, just good news to inform you.” Ma Dong said with a smile.
“What, what good news?”
Louie’s hand was shaking nervously as he held the phone, he felt that the “good news” should be a black humor ……
“Mr. Night has raised the stakes for our Paris project, we don’t need to raise any more money, we can start early, when are you coming back to Paris? A few of us will go over and meet you.”
Hearing these words, Louis was shocked, he thought that Night Zhen Ting would withdraw the funds and leave him in ruins, but he did not expect him not only to withdraw but also to raise the stakes.
Did he, indeed, not blame him?
The old duke was also shocked and full of doubts.
Night Zhen Ting, what on earth was he doing?
“Louis, Louis ……” Ma Dong shouted a few times at the other end of the phone.
“Oh, I’m leaving this afternoon, I’ll be in Paris tomorrow.” Louis came back to his senses and said absentmindedly, “I’ll call with ZhenTing first ……”
“Good!”
