Chapter 394 The confrontation between father and daughter
Edgeworth House.
The song Li knocked on the door of my father's study with the confession obtained by the family professionals.
She didn't know whether it was right or wrong to do so.
But...the reason told her that she had to do this now.
"Come in."
The voice of my father came from inside.
Ge Li took a deep breath and pushed open the door.
There are many affairs every day, gathered here from all directions, at the table of the Kingdom's Minister of Finance.
There was a time when Geli was very proud of it, but now she doesn't think it's a glory anymore.
Just as she never doubted all her father's decisions before, but now she has to doubt, or even object.
"Father." She called softly.
Standing here has almost consumed all her courage.
Even if you don’t get a good result in the end, you must let him understand what he thinks.
After exhausting his courage, what he is now supporting himself is his anger at Wayne.
Every word he said last night was so harsh, even the truth was unacceptable. If you really couldn't continue to say it, just think of Vine's hateful face, what you want to say would become smooth and natural again.
"What's wrong?"
Secretary Franz did not realize that Ge Li was in a bad mood and thought he was coming to report to him.
"Have you encountered any problems with the publisher recently? I also read the latest issue of Wangdu Morning Post last time. Their people are really smarter. If they have the opportunity, they can dig a few backbone from Shuye Publishing House for a high salary. The money is not a problem..."
He wanted to continue talking, but was interrupted by the song ritual for the first time.
"Father!" She increased the volume a little.
“—I don’t mean this.”
Franz was a little surprised to find that Song Li looked different.
"Well, what happened?" he asked.
Take the song two steps forward and place the tidy confession in your hand on the table.
Franz glanced at it, pushed the document that was originally placed in front of him to the side, and reached out to pick up the one of his daughters.
He looked down and browsed.
In silence, the atmosphere in the study became more and more stiff, as if a storm was about to take shape was lying dormant.
Finally, Franz finished reading this confession.
"Where did you get this thing?"
He had a calm face and looked very unhesitant.
"I... I accidentally saw the document with the word "top secret" on your desk, my father. I was curious and opened it and took a look."
The entire Edgeworth family originally stated that no one would be allowed to enter and exit the head's study without reporting.
But, only singing ceremony is the exception.
For the purpose of cultivating her, Franz would occasionally call her into the study to discuss matters together. Generally speaking, even when Franz was doing important things, he would not be angry when he knocked in the door.
But before that, except for helping to put on scattered pens, move stools, wipe the table, etc., Ge Li did not automatically operate Franz's personal belongings.
Therefore, over time, he was not particularly wary of anything that he shouldn't have seen.
In his eyes, she would know about those things sooner or later, but it was just a matter of time.
but--
This does not mean that he will easily forgive her mistakes this time.
"I think this is a huge handle for the family and must not be put into the hands of others, nor can it be delayed for a long time."
"So I found someone to sneak into the private estate of Earl Chapman, destroyed the contents of the Edgeworth family in the account book, and captured the magician who was guarding there..."
She hid Wien's existence and repeated the incident vaguely.
"Now, this magician is being held in the family basement."
There may be many shortcomings in specific operations, but Ge Li thinks that what he is doing is the right thing.
Such a handle could be used to threaten the Edgeworth family and thus to impose their family interests upon outsiders.
She is just trying her best to protect the interests of the family.
"—Where is the account book?" Franz asked again.
"After tearing up the pages involving the family, I stored them in a safe place."
If Wien took out the damaged account book and stirred up the wind and rain, he could only say that he had accidentally leaked the treasure clue, and then he noticed it and stole it...
"fool!"
Franz suddenly slapped the table with anger and made a deafening loud noise.
"Who asked you to do these things?!"
Ge Li was startled and subconsciously shrank a little.
But in an instant she straightened her back.
She yelled at Franz with her neck tampered, "Father! Earl Chapman is not worthy of deep friendship. He will drag the Edgeworth family into the abyss!"
"No one instructed me, I was going to do this myself!"
Ge Li's eyes were red and tears couldn't help but overflow.
"If such a thing is leaked, Edgeworth's family name that has been passed down for thousands of years will be destroyed in an instant..."
"Why do you do this..."
When I learned what this means, Ge Li really only had a feeling of disillusionment.
The Edgeworth family, who once made me proud of it from the bottom of my heart, made me constantly work hard and not want to shame my family name... Is the things I really want to protect are actually just such existence?
She doesn't accept it.
"What do you know again!"
On the other hand, Franz was also very angry.
To some extent, he was much more angry than singing at this time.
"Ha...it seems that I protected you so well before..."
Franz felt a burst of passionate blood pouring into his head and his hair was so angry that he was so angry that he stood up.
He suddenly stood up, walked to Ge Li, and shouted loudly: "Do you think this is the end?"
"—Their private accounts are more than this one!"
"Move your brain! Why didn't I take action after knowing that there is such an important thing?" He asked in reverse.
"They also know that this thing is very important, so why is there only one magician stationed?"
"This is a flag he hangs out from Chapman! Of course it's easy to take it out, but how to deal with it? Have you ever thought about it?"
He thought that he would wait a little later and let her practice in business for a few years before slowly getting into these complex power struggles.
