C823 Eviction
"Grandfather!"
Seeing this, Qiao Anna's face changed. She hurriedly pulled on Bush's hand and said in a trembling voice, "Grandfather, this is not just Keith's fault, I'm also in the wrong. The main reason for this is me. Grandpa, don't blame Keith. I'm willing to accept the punishment!"
The middle-aged man was stunned as soon as he finished speaking. He didn't think that Qiao Anna would actually take the initiative to ask for forgiveness on behalf of his son.
Although Bush Keith was a favored member of the family, the middle-aged man knew that he was only favored because Bush Keith could not threaten any of the Bush family members. To put it bluntly, he was an unimportant person.
But Bush Keith was in trouble, and it was almost certain that the older brothers and sisters who normally treated him well would be eager to get out of it.
However, Qiao Anna's actions surprised him.
"Are you planning on protecting him?"
Bush looked at her coldly and said.
Under the dignified gaze of old Bush, Qiao Anna's body shuddered subconsciously. A look of struggle appeared in her eyes, but it was quickly replaced by determination.
"Grandfather, it's not that I want to protect Keith, it's just that the main responsibility lies with me, so I'm begging you, grandfather, not to make things difficult for Keith."
Qiao Anna lowered her head, not daring to meet Bush's eyes. However, her tone was firm.
"Think about it clearly. This matter concerns the life and death of our entire Bush family. No matter who caused this calamity, there is no chance of it being forgiven. If you want a single person to bear the consequences, you should know what the consequences are."
Old Bush looked at her with shining eyes.
In fact, it was his intention to throw all the blame on Bush Keith and abandon his grandson to protect her.
Although this was a bit unkind, as the leader of the Bush family, whatever he did had to be done with the future of the family in mind. In his eyes, the best thing to do was to act in the interest of the family.
Qiao Anna's delicate body trembled and she knelt down powerlessly on the ground. However, after a moment, she gritted her teeth and spat out a sentence.
"Grandpa, please grant us your wish!"
Old Bush took a deep breath and looked at Bush Keith. "What do you think?" he asked coldly.
Now that Joe Anna insisted on taking the blame, he could only hope that Bush Keith would have some sense of responsibility.
"Grandfather, second … Second Sister is right, although this matter was caused by me, but in reality, if Second Sister had not insisted on standing up for me, she would not have caused this kind of disaster in the clan, so this matter was completely wrong on Second Sister's part, it has nothing to do with me, please do not blame this grandson wrongly! "
Bush Keith trembled and knelt on the ground and said in a quavering voice. His eyes struggled for a moment, but the words did not come out of his mouth in the least bit.
Although he was reluctant to part with his second sister, but compared to his own life, what could he not give up?
Thinking of this, Bush Keith suddenly smiled sinisterly. He looked at Qiao Anna who was kneeling on the ground and said, "Second sister, look at you. Who asked you to stand up for me? In the end, you just counteracted and caused so much trouble for the family, you are truly unforgivable! If your family falls, you will be the biggest sinner! "
Qiao Anna's delicate body trembled as she finished her sentence. Her eyes opened under her blonde hair, revealing an expression of disbelief. Two streams of clear tears flowed down her face.
At the risk of being ridiculed by the world, she was willing to give anything, even her life, to break that taboo relationship with Bush Keith, simply because she believed that Bush Keith loved her just as much.
But Jovu Li was wrong, no matter how gifted she was in the business world, and yet she was a woman, a sentient being like all other women, so she gave in to her wishful thinking without knowing that she was not important to Bush Keith at all.
"You!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the old Bush's gaze hardened and became stifling. He looked coldly at the middle-aged man beside him and said: "Good, very good! You have a good son. "
The middle-aged man had a look of shame on his face as he lowered his head and didn't say a word.
Although he did not agree with Bush Keith, as a father, he certainly did not want to see his son punished, so he chose to remain silent.
"After this is over, I will find you guys to settle the score."1
Old Bush snorted, unwilling to see Bush Keith and his son and Joe Anna again, turned and walked out the door.
When the middle-aged man saw his father leave, his gaze landed on Bush Keith. After a moment of silence, he did not say anything else and turned to leave as well.
For a moment there was only Bush Keith and Joe Wullie.
Um, sorry, second sister, you also know that this matter started because of me. If I plead guilty just now, grandpa would definitely not let me off, maybe he would just see me give it to Ye Ling to vent his anger. I had no choice but to do this, second sister, you will forgive me, right?
Bush Keith squatted down and placed both hands on Qiao Anna's shoulders. He smiled apologetically and said, "I promise you, when this matter is over, I will make you a good compensation."
The atmosphere turned silent for a long time after she finished speaking. Qiao Anna raised her head. Her dark blue eyes were incomparably calm. There was no resentment, and they no longer had the previous fiery heat. They were as calm as death itself.
"Two... Second Sister? "
Bush Keith's heart skipped a beat, and he thought that Joe Anna was going to do something to him.
However, she slapped Bush Keith's hand off her shoulder, then stood up and left without a word.
On the other side, in a control room, dozens of workers were staring at the equipment in front of them. At this moment, not a single one of them was idle. They were all flustered and in a hurry to carry the equipment.
These were the most powerful men in the Bush family, and many of them had been invited from the outside world.
However, at this moment, these people had long since been drenched in sweat, and their faces all revealed an anxious expression.
"This is bad!"
All of a sudden, a player cried out in shock. His eyes stared straight at the screen in front of him before he slumped back in his chair.
Another industry had fallen. In less than two hours, the Bush family had already lost a total of thirty industries. It could be said that this was their biggest loss since the founding of the family.
"Reporting to the Patriarch … We. There is a shortage of funds and the situation is not looking good. "
At that moment, a voice sounded. It sounded a bit awkward, as if the elder had already anticipated the scene where George W. Bush would fly into a rage.
