"Tell me exactly what happened." Giovanni looked at Donny, and although he was very angry, he still spoke slowly.

After all, in order to get Downey out, he used a lot of connections and money.

"Okay." Donnie nodded stiffly, without any trace of the arrogance he displayed in the academy.

Then, he organized what he knew into a timeline and told Giovanni everything.

"I see..." Giovanni nodded after hearing this and then fell into deep thought.

After a long moment, he looked up at Donnie.

"After all, it was me who asked you to deal with them in the academy. It's not your fault that you fell into Orson's trap." Giovanni said in a flat tone.

"Father, you really don't blame me?" Donny was overjoyed to see that Giovanni had no intention of blaming him.

"Well, just consider it as a lesson for yourself," Giovanni said.

"By the way, father, there is something else I need to talk to you about." At this time, Tony thought of another thing.

"what's up?"

"It's about the daughter of the president of the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce, Chelinina Bonaventura."

"What's up with her?"

"Orson seems to have an affair with her..."

"What did you say?" Giovanni slammed the table when he heard this. "That guy Louis is playing both sides?"

"No, no." Upon hearing this, Donnie waved his hand. "President Louis is a very nice person.

She has been standing here with us. She also reprimanded Orson at the banquet before. But it seems that Cherylina was drugged by Orson and she is determined not to let him go. "

"You want me to help you?"

"Yeah." Donnie nodded. "Father, I think you're the only one who can help me with this matter."

"You're talking nonsense." Giovanni said this and slammed the table. "Isn't it your own fault that you can't win over women?!"

"Don't make me do everything!" Giovanni pointed to the door. "Go out and think about it carefully. I'll give you three days to come to me with your ideas. Otherwise, I won't care about you even if you marry a bitch."

"..." Looking at his suddenly angry father, Donnie could only nod and leave the room.

……

A few days later, a fast horse arrived in Antica City, bringing two letters to Chelinina of the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce.

One was a reply from Orson to Chelinina, and the other was a letter of resignation from the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce headquarters.

"Hehe, it seems that father has been forced into a corner. After all, he has cut off such a large piece of meat." Chelinina looked at the resignation letter, then glanced at Paul in front of her and smiled.

"Grandpa Paul, you wrote this letter of resignation, right?"

"That's right." Paul nodded. "Miss, please understand the president's painstaking efforts. He is also for the benefit of the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce. By forming an alliance with the Duke of Napoli, the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce will be able to move freely everywhere."

"Grandpa Paul, do you really think so?" Celinina looked at Paul with a smile in her eyes. "It would be fine if nothing happened to the Duke of Napoli, but if something happened, wouldn't we all be on this ship together?"

"Grandpa Paul, you and grandpa started from scratch, and the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce was developed by you all. You know the principle of keeping a low profile, right?"

“However, the six great dukes of the empire, except the Duke of Antica, have continued to operate without decline for hundreds of years. In other words, there is no more stable investment than them…” Paul said with his head down.

"But if there is a risk, we will go bankrupt." Chelinina said this and turned around. "I'm sorry, I can't accept this dismissal."

"Of course, I will hold a representative meeting in the branch. If the representatives from various places think that I am not doing a good job and want me to step down, I will of course step down."

"But if the result is not like this, and you still want to dismiss me, please forgive me for severing ties with the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce and setting up my own business."

“…” Paul stared at Chelinina’s back.

For some reason, he felt that he suddenly saw the shadow of the old president in her.

If the old president were still alive, he would never let his children become victims of a political marriage.

Because the old president never wanted to have anything to do with politics.

A few days later, representatives from the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce's Antica branch and the chambers of commerce in various cities in the Duchy of Antica came to Antica City.

This general meeting will decide whether Chelinina stays or goes.

At the conference, Paul and Chelinina sat on either side of the podium.

When the representatives saw Paul, they were all stunned.

They all knew that Paul was Louis's deputy and a veteran of the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce.

The presence of such a heavyweight figure here must mean that this meeting is extraordinary.

"Well, first of all, let me announce the reason for holding this meeting." Paul said this and looked at everyone present.

"Because President Chelinina leaked business secrets to the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce's rival, the Ali Chamber of Commerce, without authorization, and caused a loss of 4 million gold coins to the Chamber of Commerce headquarters, the headquarters decided to remove President Chelinina from her position."

After Paul finished speaking, he didn't say anything more, but sat down and waited for Chelinina to speak.

After hearing Paul's words, the representatives in the audience began to whisper.

They were not clear about the inheritance issues within the president's family and did not know why Chelinina did this.

"Then let me explain why I did this." Celinina said, looking at the audience. "Everyone has more or less noticed that in the past month, the Silver Moon Merchant Guild outside the Dukedom of Antica has cut off business dealings with us. This is an order from the headquarters, which is to suppress our Antica branch and make our business unable to continue."

"what?"

"No way……"

"Why did President Louis do this..."

In the audience, the representatives expressed their incomprehension when they heard what Chelinina said.

"Well, you all probably want to know the reason.

, why did President Louis do this. "Cherinina said this, her tone became serious. "That's because President Louis, in order to prevent me from inheriting the family business, deliberately created obstacles in my business and wanted to force me to give up the competition."

As soon as these words were spoken, the audience immediately exploded.

Chelinina paused before continuing, "Everyone, although I have not worked here for a long time, the development of the Chamber of Commerce during this time is obvious to all. I believe you have seen my ability. You should also understand who can lead the Chamber of Commerce to become better. So, the question of whether I stay or leave is up to you to decide."

Having said this, the audience began to vote.

During this period, Paul did not say a single inflammatory word, but just watched silently as the representatives voted for Celinina.

Then, the vote was over, and all the representatives in the audience, without exception, agreed that Chelinina should stay.

"Okay, then the voting is over. Thank you all for your trust in me." Chelinina said this and turned to look at Paul.

"Director Paul, you should have seen it too."

"Yes." Paul nodded. "I will go back and tell the president about this matter. As for the dismissal, let's just pretend it never happened."

As he said this, he smiled at Chelinina.

"President Chelinina, I hope you can lead the Antica branch to further progress."

"I will." Chelinina nodded and said goodbye to Paul.

……

Saint Laurent City, slums.

Litt came down into the alley with a few of Virgil's men.

This was her first time going out on a mission on her own.

Virgil felt that he had taught almost everything he should have taught in the past few days, so he asked Litt to take his men on a mission.

This time, he was dealing with a gangster who had recently caused trouble in his own tavern.

When they arrived at the alley, there were more than a dozen tall and strong men standing inside. Lit looked at them and frowned.

The men did not look at Litt, but surrounded a person. Litt walked closer and found that the figure was the elf lady he had seen in the hotel before.

"Hey, little girl, just hand over everything you had on you so that I can let you go. Otherwise, don't blame us for being ruthless." The tall man in the lead approached her with a smile.

"Ah! You, please stay away from me! Is there anyone here? Please save me!" Miss Elf said this and shouted loudly.

Litt couldn't help it immediately, she rushed forward and knocked the tall man to the ground with one punch.

Then he protected the elf lady.

"You bunch of people..." Lit looked at the gangster angrily.

Virgil said that the day before yesterday, they got drunk in the bar and refused to pay. When the staff wanted to talk to them about it, they beat them up instead. That's how the grudge between them started.

In fact, Virgil knew that this gangster was sent by another big gang in Saint Laurent City to cause trouble, but he deliberately concealed this news from Litt.

"Damn it." The man who was knocked down by Leeteuk stood up and looked at Leeteuk with anger in his eyes. "Didn't anyone tell you that there is a price to pay for being a hero and saving a beautiful girl?"

Having said this, he called on his men to rush over.

A few minutes later, Lit looked at the man lying on the ground wailing and rubbed his fists.

Then, she called on her men to tie up all these people and take them to the tavern.

Then, she looked at the elf lady behind her.

At this time, stars were already appearing in Miss Elf's eyes.

"Wow, Mr. Lit, you are so awesome!"

"Uh, do you still remember me?" Litt looked at Miss Elf with some confusion.

"Yeah, of course I remember!" The elf nodded. "After all, you are the young master of Master Orson."

"Anyway, thank you, Mr. Leeteuk."

"It's okay." Lit shook his head.

It just so happens that I was going to settle accounts with that gang anyway, so this way I could kill two birds with one stone.

"By the way, Mr. Litt, what are you doing here?" Miss Elf suddenly asked.

"Uh, I..." Li Te didn't know what to say.

She couldn't say that she came here to beat someone up and saved Miss Elf by the way, right?

If that happens, the goodwill he has built up in Miss Elf's heart will collapse in an instant.

Thinking of this, Li Te hurriedly found an excuse: "

Well, I was just wandering around here, and when I heard something was wrong, I came here to take a look."

"By the way, Miss Elf, how about you? This is a slum now..."

"Ah, I...I." Miss Elf was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I...I have a friend living here, and I was going to visit her, but I ran into this group of criminals. Well, that's it."

"Anyway, thank you, Mr. Lit!" Miss Elf said this, bowed to Lit, and then hurried out of the alley.

Lit looked at the elf lady's back and fell into deep thought.

When Orson signed her ears before, did he sign both ears?

Litt thought about it, but still couldn't figure out how many autographs Orson signed for Miss Elf that day.

Then, as she was about to leave the slum, she was surrounded by a group of gang members.

There were quite a lot of them, probably about fifty or sixty of them, blocking the street from both the front and back directions and surrounding themselves in the center.

Then, a burly man walked out from the crowd, holding a big iron rod in his hand.

"Boy, you were the one who beat up our brother?"

"It's me." Li Te nodded, his expression as calm as water.

"Okay." The big man nodded and walked forward. "My name is Bell, and I'm the boss of the Hammer Gang here. You beat up my brothers, and I can't just sit there and watch."

"Well, I'm not a bad person. This iron rod in my hand weighs fifty kilograms. I'll break one of your legs, and then you can go."

"Oh?" Seeing Bell's arrogant look, Lit couldn't help but want to laugh. "Are you serious?"

"Heh, do you think I'm lying?" Bell said, swinging the big iron rod and smashing it into the ground, creating a crack. "Don't be ungrateful. I'm telling you, I was an adventurer before, with the strength of the third level, and I've made a name for myself here. If you're smart, accept my terms, or else it won't just be your leg that's going to be crippled."

"Oh." Litte nodded, and then took a stance. "You mean, we have to fight?"

"Tsk." Bell clicked his tongue. "Okay, since you're so stubborn, don't blame me."
