Chapter 1426: A Lone Soul
were powerful; he had a strong network in the capital. How could he not even dare to answer his own phone What was going onUndeterred, he made several more calls until finally, one went through.The ph...At the invitation of the Lorin family, today's banquet almost encompassed the entire upper class of the Federal Empire. Every family sent its own representative.
"My House of Ross shall, guided by God, turn away from the wicked House of Berkley and sever all ties with them..."
"My Lorien family, is willing to sever all ties with the Berrick family..."
"My Foxen family, is willing to sever all ties with the Berrick family..."
Those families who were already allied with the Lorraine family immediately came forward, instantly elevating the atmosphere of condemnation against the Berick family to its peak.
Ramos was very pleased with the atmosphere and soon turned his attention to the Perlan family, landing on Gomez.
Gomez still had a faint smile on his face, but in his heart he was screaming "what the **" over a hundred times.
He was originally accustomed to playing both sides, reaping the benefits without taking any risks. His purpose in coming today was to provoke conflict between the Berrick family and Ye Bufan, but he didn't expect so many things to happen suddenly.
The situation has completely spiraled out of control, ultimately dragging itself down as well. It's now forced to make a public choice.
If it were just the Pelan, Berick, and Lorin families, he could handle things relatively easily. But now, with the addition of the enormous force that is the Divine Court, this situation demands clarity on his stance.
And Casillas made it very clear, it's friends or enemies. If they don't publicly break with the Beric family, they will become targets of the Divine Court.
After weighing the pros and cons, he could only say: "I really didn't expect the Berrick family to do such a heinous thing. Just now, Oliver withdrew his engagement with our family, so we have no more ties with them, and all communication will be cut off in the future!"
As soon as he said those words, Alice almost cheered. She had worked so hard for this, her ultimate goal was to get out of the marriage, and today she finally got what she wanted. From now on, she wouldn't have to be bothered by Oliver anymore.
And this time, the annulment took place in front of the Divine Court and everyone present. From now on, there would be no need to worry about the Berick family going back on their word or being confined by them. I could finally be with the person I love, happily ever after.
With overwhelming excitement, she hugged Ye Bufan's neck and gave him a hard kiss on the cheek.
"My dear, we can finally be together from now on."
Gomez's public statement indicated that more than just a marriage was being called off; it also signified the official rupture of the alliance between the Pelan and Berick families.
Immediately after, the smaller clans that had previously followed the Pelan family rose up one by one, declaring their intention to sever ties with the ruthless Berick clan.
As the saying goes, "a falling wall will be pushed by everyone." By the end of things, even those small families who had previously belonged to the Berick family jumped out and declared their severance of all ties.
There's no way, because the other side is simply too powerful. They're a Crimson Cardinal, backed by the divine Court that's beyond our reach.
In less than half an hour, nearly all the forces present at the banquet had taken a stand, and the Berick family truly became isolated.
"How could this be How could this be"
Dennis Ton sat slumped on the ground, muttering to himself, his eyes filled with despair. He prided himself on his intellect and cunning, yet he never imagined his family would fall so low.
Suddenly, her mind flashed back to Ye Bufan's words, "This is your last chance, or you'll regret it."
Yes, she really regretted it now, and her intestines were blue with regret!
Although it's still unknown how Ye Bufan managed to do this, this incident is definitely related to him. If there was a chance to start over, the Berick family would never make an enemy of this Chinese man under any circumstances.
Looking at all this before him, Ramos' heart was already filled with joy. For so many years, he had been confronting the Berick family and had never been able to overpower them. Today, however, he easily crushed them completely. The victory came too suddenly.
The Berrick family was ostracized by everyone, which effectively severed their economic lifeline. Even if no one attacked them, decline would only be a matter of time. They would surely be removed from the Federal Imperial Capital soon enough. There is no better example of "victory without bloodshed."
He wore a smug smile and walked over, saying: "Miss Danielton, the Lorrin family does not welcome enemies here as guests. Please leave."
By now, Ramos showed no politeness whatsoever and directly issued an expulsion order.
Even if Ramos didn't say anything, Dennis had no face to stay any longer. He originally came here today with the mindset of not being suspected, but in the end, his crime was confirmed.
She climbed to her feet, her face ashen, and walked out of the hall.
"Sis, wait for me."
Olivier tossed the microphone aside and chased after him, but Dennis was consumed by anger at that moment, wishing he could kill him, and completely ignored Olivier.
Two people went outside and came directly to the parking lot. Dennis Ton opened the car door and got in, while Olivier, possibly out of fear, didn't sit in the co-pilot seat but sat in the back row instead.
"You wait, I'll get even with you when I go back."
Dennis drove off, muttering under his breath, and sped back to the Berkley estate.
After getting back home, she parked the car and angrily shouted to the back: "Damn thing, get out here!"
She yelled several times, but there was no response. She yanked open the car door and saw Oliver lying sound asleep in the back seat, his clothes strewn about him, with only a pair of underwear left on.
Seeing this, Dennis could no longer hold back his anger. He waved his hand and called over four bodyguards from the family.
"Drag him down here for me."
The bodyguards, though clueless about what was happening, dared not disobey the young lady's command. They scrambled to pull Oliver out of the car with all their might.
And yet, until this very moment, he was still fast asleep, showing no sign of waking up.
Denton gritted his teeth with hatred and roared, "Beat them! Beat them hard!"
The bodyguards felt the young lady's fury and didn't dare to hesitate for a moment, beating Oliver up with punches and kicks.
At first, he wasn't using much force. But after Dennis's shouts, he started hitting harder and soon woke up Oliver who was unconscious.
"Ouch... who hit me"
He awoke as if from a dream, looking around in confusion.
When he discovered that the person attacking him was one of his own family's bodyguards, he immediately flew into a rage, "You bastards are all crazy! You dare to hit young master!"
"You're crazy! What did you do today"
Dennis stormed, his fury reaching a boiling point. He lifted his leg and sent a vicious kick crashing into Olivier's face, sending him sprawling to the ground.
Olivier was utterly baffled, clueless as to why Dennis would suddenly turn on him.
"I'll beat you up! I wish I could kill that stupid jerk!"
Aniston reached out and snatched a rubber baton from her bodyguard's hand, swinging it wildly.
Olivier was beaten to the ground, rolling and wailing, "Sis, please stop! Why are you hitting me What did I do wrong"gzhen said coldly, "Does it help to see it What matters is getting your hands on it."Ye Bufan said, “You're being too domineering, aren't you Now we're a team, the three Hongyuan fruits should be divi...
