Chapter 2416

“Mr. Owen, there is one question you still haven’t answered. That is assuming the United States or forces like the Rothschilds used mercenaries to initiate turmoil and disrupt the situation before the war started.”

“If that is the case, how can you ensure that the agreement at this meeting can be carried out as promised?”

“Like today’s attack. Maybe, many of us here will be wiped out. Especially us, the heads of the local Qari families. If we die here, new members of the family will soon take our place. And they are very likely to be the spies arranged in advance by forces like Rothschild. Just like Kimbra.”

Warwick’s words were like a heavy hammer hitting everyone’s hearts.

What he said was something that many families here were worried about.

A series of events that happened during the day today fully demonstrated why Kimbra was able to imprison his father and brother and successfully ascend to power. All because the Rothschilds supported him. This made many families even more dissatisfied with the Rothschilds and also cast doubt in their hearts.

Originally they were dissatisfied with Kimbra’s coup in the clan, but now this dissatisfaction had become a concern. After all, no one wanted to be like Baltimore in the end. They did not want to be betrayed by their son secretly.

Now there were many mercenaries in Qari and they were all very powerful.

Although they were not as good as the official Qari army as a whole, if they were to be mobilized, the individual families would not be able to handle that kind of force.

Just like today when the Sky Wolves Mercenaries were the only ones who launched the attack but were almost wiped out because they were unprepared.

If Sandra’s people had not stalled so that the reinforcements could arrive in time, Warwick’s worries might have become a reality.

Owen’s face darkened.

Shulman’s rise to prominence was sudden but expected. However, he never expected that Qari’s local forces, which he considered weak and easy to manipulate, would also express objections now. In addition, the person who spoke first was not the head of the family, but Warwick, the next generation.

The change in the situation made Owen feel a little uncomfortable.

“Solander, who is this?” He narrowed his eyes and asked Solander, pretending not to know him.

However, to his surprise, Solander did not spare him the embarrassment, but said lightly, “I forgot to introduce him to you all. This is my nephew, Warwick, the heir of the Elvis family. His stance also represents my opinion.”

Solander was already dissatisfied with Owen’s attitude just now, and in his opinion, the nature of Warwick’s questions was also a breakthrough for them to fight for the interests of the local Qari forces.

After Solander said that, the other local forces joined in.

“Indeed. What Warwick said makes sense. Mr. Owen, no matter how good our agreement is, it is based on the premise that we can survive. What if something happens to us and the new person who takes office refuses to accept the agreement?”

“Now, these mercenaries are unstable factors, and there are obviously foreign instigations behind them. This matter must be resolved.”

As Owen listened to these people, he could feel a headache coming. He regretted the decision to exclude Qari officials from the meeting. These problems were something those guys were supposed to deal with.

Just as Owen’s head was throbbing, a voice that no one expected spoke up. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“Everyone, I have an idea…” Sandra stood up quietly and spoke.
