This was not the first ti Stephens t with Lin Fan. Back when Lin Fan helped the royal family, he was just as straightforward and efficient as he is now, disliking any waste of ti when handling business!
Speed! That's Lin Fan's secret to success!
However, out of courtesy, Stephens still ordered a drink for Lin Fan. He grabbed the intercom on the table and said a few words. In no ti, the personal guard standing outside brought Lin Fan a cup of Huaxia-produced West Lake Pre-Ming Longjing tea!
"Please!" Stephens gestured to Lin Fan.
Lin Fan was not shy, taking a sip. Indeed, it was no wonder that such a place would attract soone of Stephens' status; the hot tea was very authentic and had a fragrant taste!
Then Lin Fan asked, "Mr. Stephens, I believe the information I have investigated is not as comprehensive as what you know. I hope you can tell
what you haven't yet revealed."
Hearing this, Stephens hesitated slightly!
Seeing this, Lin Fan raised an eyebrow. It indeed matched his suspicion that Stephens indeed was hiding so unspeakable secrets!
"What exactly happened?" Lin Fan asked imdiately!
"Mr. Tyrant is no outsider; I won't conceal it further."
Stephens sighed and said, "As I age, many things have not been handled properly, especially the enterprises under our royal family, which are beyond control."
Lin Fan nodded to show understanding. After all, the British royal family is one of the world's three major financial conglorates, alongside the Child Clan and East Asia's Mitsubishi Group, with many industries, including shares in the famous Land Rover and Jaguar cars!
The Yanyu Group controlled by Su Yanyu alone is already troubleso to manage, let alone this giant comrcial ship!
"Your Majesty, please continue," Lin Fan said.
"I have a son and a daughter, with this, Mr. Tyrant must be familiar," Stephens said.
Lin Fan nodded.
Stephens continued, "My son has been indulged in a life of debauchery for years. Although now he is the general manager of the royal family group, he does nothing every day and just causes trouble everywhere. You could say in recent years the group has been managed entirely by Dai Mo."
"Not long ago, I prepared to retire and vacate the position of chairman, likely giving them both the sa problem, with whoever solves it becoming the chairman!" Stephens said.
After hearing these words, Lin Fan's face darkened. He more or less analyzed the whole situation in his mind, suspecting that Dai Mo's disappearance was definitely related to this matter!
The ancients said there was much trouble among the rich, and looking at the current situation, the ancient's words from the wise seem to be completely true. The battles among the affluent are hidden but even more terrifying, truly akin to bloodless murder. In a normal family, without several houses and much savings, how could such disputes arise?
Stephens continued, "Originally, Dai Mo was handling this matter well, and I prepared to let her hold the chairman position, but Madam Jenny stood up in opposition!"
This Madam Jenny is His Majesty Stephens's second wife. After Madam Deve gave birth to Dai Mo, she lost her ability to have children due to a severe illness. As the British royal King, how could there not be an heir, hence married this second wife!
"I'm afraid Madam Jenny is not the only one opposing it!" Lin Fan narrowed his eyes, having t this second wife a few tis. On the surface, she seed kind and friendly, but she was actually very cunning and devious!
Seeing Lin Fan's expression, Stephens swallowed the words he was about to use to cover-up his family's scandal and then nodded instead!
Stephens said, "So of the royal family's key mbers also opposed it. They felt that as a woman, Dai Mo would eventually get married and thus hoped Maidan, the prince, would take on the position!"
"I suppose Dai Mo didn't just disappear like that!" Lin Fan asked.
"Correct! I initially handled things impartially, not wanting private matters to affect the whole group. But the pressure they put on
was imnse, so I had to temporarily shelve it and revisit it another day. Unexpectedly, after just one day, Dai Mo was gone. The following events, I've already told you; Dai Mo just mysteriously disappeared!"
After speaking, Stephens let out a long sigh, showing signs of fatigue on his face!
Everyone wants to be in a high position. Yet, for those in high places, just like Stephens, having held the royal title for many years, appear to have imnse glories, but how many comfortable days have they truly had?
It's similar to Lin Fan. He seems glamorous, but how many nights can he fully let himself fall asleep? Fearing if he doesn't stay alert, he may never see the next day's sun!
This is the saying about going up the mountain being easy, but coming down is tough. For people like them, even if they eventually step down, it's challenging to have a peaceful life throughout!
Lin Fan replayed the whole situation in his mind, finally identifying Madam Jenny as the primary suspect!
"His Majesty Stephens, is there a way for
to et Madam Jenny?" Lin Fan asked.
"Why do you want to see her?" Stephens asked in confusion.
"I believe my intention should be clear to you, Your Majesty," Lin Fan didn't speak directly, but his aning was unmistakable!
Stephens sighed, "There is, indeed. Mr. Tyrant is the most honorable guest of our British royal family. Our whole royal family is open to you unconditionally. You can co and go as you please, and no one in the royal family can stop you!"
"His Majesty Stephens, I don't wish to expose my identity this ti in Britain. Only by hiding in the shadows can I clearly observe the enemy's movents," Lin Fan said.
"If it's to conceal your identity, it isn't impossible. I can hold a eting, and you can join my guards to sneak into the palace with !" Stephens suggested.
"Very well! I hope, His Majesty Stephens, you can host this eting by tomorrow. Ti is precious, and any delay is fatal to Dai Mo. We can't afford any waste of ti!" Lin Fan stated seriously.
"Alright! Since Mr. Tyrant has made up his mind, tomorrow I'll have my guards co for you!" Stephens said.
"If that's the case, I won't disturb your rest further, wishing Your Majesty a pleasant dream tonight, farewell!"
With that, Lin Fan, without hesitation, finished his cup of hot tea and turned to leave. Everything awaited tomorrow's eting, where Lin Fan would analyze every detail to achieve a more accurate judgnt about who is related to Dai Mo's disappearance.
