Chapter 5056
The sun never sets, and on the outskirts of the foggy city, there is an ancient castle that has been around for hundreds of years.
Compared to other castles, which were dilapidated, crumbling, and about to collapse, this castle appeared to be very resilient and showed no signs of collapse.
Because this old castle is the family headquarters of the Sassoon family.
Every year, at a specific time, direct descendants of the Sassoon family would come here from all over the world to listen to the reprimands of the family head and clan elders.
At the same time, they will also list the younger generation of direct descendants of the Sassoon family. The most outstanding person will become the next heir to the head of the Sassoon family. Today, it is not the Sassoon family's annual gathering of direct descendants. It was a day, but in the evening, luxury cars drove into the castle from outside.
These luxury cars are not just one, but each fleet has several luxury cars.
The car drove into the castle and stopped in front of the castle garden.
The car door opens.
One by one, very formal and neatly dressed old men in tuxedos slowly got off the cars. The youngest of these old men was no less than sixty years old.
They exuded an aura of nobility.
These people are all elders of the Sassoon family.
In the Sassoon family, in addition to the head of the family, there are seven clan elders. These people come together to form the clan elders meeting of the Sassoon family.
In extremely serious matters, it needs to be approved by the clan elders meeting.
For example, the future head of the Sassoon family must be approved by the clan elders meeting. At this time, the six elders of the Sassoon family have already come to the Sassoon family.........
These elders of the Sassoon family are all big shots. The industries they control are not too weak, and they are actually rich people.
However, when these clan elders were raised together, no one had a smile on their face. Instead, they had a gloomy face, and their faces were covered with clouds.
"Dear clan elders, please come into the conference hall. The clan leader has been waiting for you for a long time."A middle-aged man in his fifties walked out of the castle, bowed and made an invitation. The others looked at each other and nodded.
The group walked into the castle.
Through the castle In the hall of the fort, they came to an extremely spacious room, which was a room with an area of about more than 100 square meters.
In the middle, there was a conference table.
The table was made of pure mahogany and covered with The mottled spots show the long history of this conference table.
And at the top of the conference table, sits an old man who is nearly seventy years old..........
"Everyone is here, sit down!"
Matt Sassoon spoke.
He is the head of this generation of the Sassoon family. He has inherited the status of the Sassoon family more than 20 years ago. It has been more than 20 years now.
He has been in the Sassoon family for more than 20 years. The family's prestige is not small. When the other clan elders heard his words, they sat down slowly.
Matt Sassoon said:"You have got the news about the family!"
"Master, what is going on? How come my grandson Lant was robbed and killed by a homeless man."The old man sitting at the bottom of Matt Sassoon said with a gloomy face.
This man is called Burr Sassoon, who is Lant's grandfather. He is now nearly eighty years old and one of the oldest clan elders here.
This is In the Sassoon family, he has been the patriarch for forty years and has great influence. Moreover, his lineage in the Sassoon family is just not as good as the head of the family.
Other branches are not as good as his..........
Lant is his most outstanding grandson and the most outstanding young generation in the Sassoon family. He is qualified to participate in the position of the head of the Sassoon family.
In recent years, he has invested a lot of resources in his grandson Lant to support Lant's industries and give him a better chance of becoming the head of the Sassoon family.
However, news suddenly came today that his best grandson died?
He was angry.
The anger was not because he loved this grandson the most, nor was it because he was his only grandson. How could someone from a big family like them and with a high status have only one grandson.
When he was young, he had more than a dozen women. He didn't know how many relationships he had with them in the entertainment industry, the modeling industry, and those aristocratic ladies.
There are as many as three marriages in his life.
Today's wife is more than thirty years younger than him, even younger than his eldest son, and now is the age where charm still exists.
His children, not to mention dozens of them.........
However, there are more than a dozen.
There are even more grandchildren, because many of his children, whether they are sons or daughters, have more than one relationship.
He has more than thirty grandchildren.
However, among these grandchildren, his grandson Lant was the best, and now he was killed, and it seemed that he was killed accidentally.
He was very angry because the loss was too great. After Lant died, his family was no longer qualified to compete for the position of head of the Sassoon family.
Because it is not easy to cultivate a descendant who can compete for this position. Those resources have already been invested, and now we are unable to invest so many resources.
Moreover, when he continued to invest in other branches, not only did he not invest, but his time was even slower than others.
But Sassoon suppressed his anger and wanted an explanation.........
"Boot!"Matt Sassoon spoke and said coldly:"This time, not only your grandson Lant was attacked, but also many outstanding direct heirs of our Sassoon family were attacked by 933, and basically all of them were assassinated. Fallen, except for a few lucky ones, all died"
"I suspect that this is someone's revenge against our Sassoon family, and they want to destroy our centuries-old family."
"This matter is a big conspiracy, we must calm down."
Matt comforted Bute.
Bute said solemnly:"Master, I also guessed that this was a big conspiracy, so I swallowed my anger like this and didn't get angry and lose my temper."
"But my grandson’s death cannot be in vain."
He gritted his teeth, with hatred in his heart.
If he hadn't known that other direct descendants of the family were also brutally killed, he would have suspected that this was the courtesy of the Sassoon family. The other branches killed each other in order to compete for the position of the head of the family.
Such things, in Sassoon, It is not that it has never happened in the history of the family.
Even a few decades ago, one of the heads of the Sassoon family used this method to kill several other competitors.
However, it was a time of war. During World War I, at this time, he used those means to make it impossible for the family to take measures against him.......
"The head of the family, not only Bute’s grandson, but also my grandson was brutally killed."
"And mine!"
"mine!"
Other clan elders also spoke one after another.
