"I'll think about this again and talk about it tomorrow."
Creston did not immediately agree to this idea. As the head of the family, he must have many more things to consider than Banks.
The Brown family is one of the four major families in Apple City anyway. If they are scared by a killer and run away, how can they have the face to come back and establish a foothold in the future?
Early the next morning, Orlando came to the Brown family early to discuss with Creston how to deal with the next step.
"Master Creston, what should we do now? The other party's killers are so powerful that they are almost impossible to guard against. So far we haven't even seen a single person, but one person dies every day.
If this continues, the family simply cannot bear it.
Apart from anything else, family members can no longer bear this kind of boundless fear, and I’m afraid it won’t be long before they fall apart.”
Creston did not immediately express his position. In fact, Orlando's difficulties are not the pressure that the Brown family has to bear.
After a moment of silence he asked: "What are you going to do?"
"I think the top priority is to reconcile with Ye Bufan as soon as possible and end this war where we can't see the enemy. Otherwise, the price we have to pay will be too high."
After Orlando finished speaking, he looked at Creston and was secretly glad in his heart. Fortunately, Ye Bufan did not attack his own family alone. Otherwise, it would be difficult for the other party to agree to his suggestion.
"Well, you go ahead and try your best to bring benefits to both our families."
Sure enough, under tremendous pressure, even someone as strong as Creston could only temporarily give up his position.
"Okay, I'll go now."
After receiving the other party's consent, Orlando hurried towards the Lawrence family's castle without any further hesitation.
In the hall of the Lawrence family, George, Feili, and Lu Banxia were sitting together.
"Father, I just got the latest news. Important members of the Brown family and the Field family were assassinated again last night."
Feili's delicate cheeks were filled with excitement, "According to the information sent back by our people, the opponent's killer is elusive. Although the two families used their strongest strength to protect themselves, they didn't even see the shadow of the other party.
In the end, despite tight defense, two important members were killed.
Now both the Brown family and the Field family are under tremendous pressure, and their family members are about to collapse because no one knows who will die next."
"Brother Ye is really awesome!" Lu Banxia cheered after hearing the news and said excitedly, "If this continues, I think it won't be long before they come to us and beg us for peace talks..."
George was shocked when he heard this. He never expected that Ye Bufan could suppress the two major families with his own strength. What a terrifying power it was.
But at this moment, the butler hurriedly walked in: "The head of the family, Orlando of the Field family, wants to see you."
"You came really quickly." George said, "Let him come in and see me."
The housekeeper agreed and walked out, and Feili said excitedly: "I didn't expect that the situation would turn around. He was playing tricks on us a few days ago, and he came to beg us for peace so soon."
George said: "The key point is that Doctor Ye is really powerful. He told the other party to kill one person every day, but they couldn't prevent it. No one can bear this kind of pressure."
While several people were talking, the housekeeper came in from outside with Orlando.
"Dear Master George, I'm here to visit you."
After Orlando saw a few people, he immediately came over with a big smile.
On the contrary, George acted much colder, waving his hand for the other party to sit down, and said: "Master Orlando, why do you have time to come to my place today?"
Feili looked at Orlando's two panda eyes teasingly: "Mr. Orlando, why do you think you don't look good?
Have you stayed up late again recently? Let me tell you, staying up late is not good, especially for an elderly person like you. Staying up late will be very harmful to your body."
"Uh...I'll pay attention to that in the future. When people get older, they don't always sleep well."
Orlando is indeed an old fox, and he didn't react much to Feili's ridicule.
George asked: "Mr. Orlando, I heard that there have been many funerals in your Field family recently. How come you have time to come to my place?"
"Uh..." Orlando also knew that now was not the time to hide, so he could only say straight to the point, "Mr. George, actually the main reason I came here this time is to talk to you about Mr. Ye Bufan.
After you left that day, I thought about it carefully and realized that Dr. Ye's responsibility for this matter was indeed very small. The reason why Buckley was beaten to death was completely a misunderstanding.
I think it’s best for both of us to discuss it. After all, we’re both in Apple City, so what can’t be discussed, right?”
A sneer appeared at the corner of George's mouth: "I remember you didn't say that at the time. Buckley is your favorite grandson and a talent of your Field family. Now that he is dead, you are very angry and unwilling to accept peace talks."
Orlando swallowed hard. These words were all what he said that day. He didn't expect them to be sent back so soon.
There was no way, the situation was stronger than the man, and under the coercion of Ye Bufan's invisible giant sword, he could only choose to bow his head and surrender.
"Mr. George, I later realized the error of this idea. Everyone is dead. There is no need to get entangled in this matter. It is better to resolve it as soon as possible, so I am willing to negotiate with you."
A weird smile appeared on George's face: "Okay, I also think that peace makes money, and everything must be discussed and settled."
"Yes, we all live in Apple City. We don't meet each other when we look up. Is there anything we can't discuss?"
When Orlando saw that the other party agreed to the peace talks, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The request I made that day was indeed a bit high. Do you think this is good? We only want the shares of Angel Pharmaceuticals, and we don't need the 10 billion US dollars."
George looked at him with burning eyes: "Orlando, have you ever inquired about the value of Angel Pharmaceuticals?"
"Uh... about... about 100 billion US dollars."
Even though Orlando is very thick-skinned, it is still a bit embarrassing to say this number.
George said coldly: "In that case, do you think your grandson Barkley is worth so much money? Even if he is made of pure gold, he is not worth so much money, right?"
"Um...Master George, aren't we discussing this?" Orlando said nonchalantly, "Do you think this is okay? We only want 50% of the shares..."
Feili gave him a mocking look. At this time, this old fox still wanted to ask for a high price.
"Orlando, to tell you the truth, Dr. Ye has already set the terms for peace talks."
"oh!"
Orlando felt bitter in his heart, it seemed that the other party had determined that he would eventually bow his head.
He asked dryly: "What did Mr. Ye say?"
Feili said: "Ten billion U.S. dollars, one manor, ten luxury cars, at least tens of millions of dollars."
Orlando hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "This condition is indeed a bit low, but in order to show our sincerity, our Field family has agreed."
