Chapter 1708: It Must Be You Playing Dirty!

~8 min read 1,441 words

At this very moment, William's entire inner defense line had completely collapsed.

He knew very well that if this kind of thing really went to court, he would definitely be the one who lost, and it would be a miserable defeat!

Not to mention the IOU he wrote himself was now in Ye Chen's hands, just the fact that he, as a descendant of the Rothschild family and also the fiancé of the Nordic Queen who was about to have a grand wedding, actually cheated in a card game to harm others was enough to ruin his reputation completely.

What's more, he cheated 30 billion euros plus a plane!

If this spread out, it would probably become the largest gambling fraud in the world! It would be a devastating disaster for the family's reputation!

European royal families and big families value reputation the most.

If a royal family member, even if he is a Prince, does something the royal family does not allow and it is made public, the royal family will definitely strip him of his royal status and expel him from the palace in order to maintain their own face.

Great Britain had a Prince who was removed from the royal family.

Therefore, if this matter were exposed, the wedding of William and Olivia would absolutely not be able to continue.

And if such a shameful thing spread out, it would be losing the face of the entire Rothschild family!

Their third-tier family would normally not be paid attention to by the core members of the Rothschild family.

But once such an international scandal broke out, the core members of the Rothschild family would definitely be furious!

By then, William's entire family would probably suffer a devastating disaster!

Besides that, there was an even more terrifying thing.

In Europe, cheating while gambling is no different from fraud! It is a criminal offense!

And the amount William defrauded was absolutely huge. This would definitely mean sitting in prison until the end of his life!

Thinking of this, he immediately knelt on the ground and begged with tears, "Ye Chen... I was wrong... I shouldn't have cheated to harm you... Please look at the fact that I'm getting married tomorrow and spare me this once... If this matter is really poked out, my life will be ruined..."

Ye Chen nodded and said casually, "Then let it be ruined, what does it have to do with me?"

William knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing, crying, "Ye Chen... Please look at the fact that I'm a first-time offender, give me another chance... I really know I was wrong, and I will definitely let my family find a way to help me pay off this gambling debt, just ask you to raise your hand and let me go..."

Ye Chen smiled, "You have to understand one thing. Now that you owe me this 20 billion, it is written in black and white. As long as I go to court to sue you, you will definitely have to pay it back to me. Since that's the case, why should I raise my hand and let you go?"

William was almost desperate, crying, "Ye Chen... what do you want me to do to forgive me? What do you want me to do so you won't take this matter to court?"

Ye Chen smiled faintly and said, "This matter depends on the sincerity of your families."

After speaking, he looked at Olivia and said, "Olivia, since you also participated in this matter, then this 50 billion euros will be paid by your two families together! As for how much each family pays, you can negotiate a ratio yourselves! Half an hour later, I want to see 50 billion euros transferred to my account!"

Olivia was stunned and blurted out, "Ye Chen... this matter, William's family is already willing to pay... how can you let our royal family pay too... for one thing, you can't earn double money, right?"

Ye Chen nodded and said with a smile, "Olivia, you're really right. For this matter, I just want to earn double money!" ===== CHAPTER 1709 =====

If her fiancé were to have such a huge scandal exposed at this time, and he were even arrested by the judicial authorities, then her reputation as the future Empress would also be ruined in advance!

Therefore, just like William, she could not let this matter be made public no matter what.

So, she hurriedly said to Ye Chen: "Mr. Ye, please wait a moment, I will go and invite William's parents up right now!"

After saying this, she hurriedly ran out.

At this time, inside the banquet hall.

Richard Iliad was clinking glasses with George Rothschild.

Abramovich, who had been slapped by Ye Chen, had long since returned to his room in a huff, and both of their wives had also returned to their rooms first because they could not hold their liquor.

In the banquet hall, only these two men remained, drinking cup after cup.

Both men were in a very good mood; after all, tomorrow was the big day for their two children's wedding, and not long after the wedding, Olivia would be able to ascend the throne as Empress.

By then, William, as her husband, would also be officially conferred the title of Prince.

By that time, William, with the title of Prince, would definitely become famous in the Rothschild family.

Perhaps their entire family could squeeze into the second tier of the Rothschild family.

Just as the two were happily drinking, Olivia ran down quickly, panting, and said: "Dad! Uncle George! You must go up to the second floor quickly! William has caused a huge disaster!"

"Caused a disaster?" William's father, George, asked with a look of surprise: "Didn't you young people go to play cards? What kind of disaster could William cause?"

Olivia cried and said: "William was bent on setting a trap for Ye Chen, and teamed up with one of his friends to cheat in order to scam Ye Chen, but it was seen through by Ye Chen, and he even lost two billion Euros to Ye Chen. Now Ye Chen is making a scene and wants to take it to court..."

"What?!" George felt a wave of dizziness, and blurted out: "What kind of guts did he eat to dare to cheat and scam Ye Chen? And he made it so big... Didn't I tell him not to provoke that man surnamed Ye?"

Olivia also said with immense regret: "William thought that this matter could definitely be done without anyone knowing, and that he could not only win a sum of money from Ye Chen, but also have a chance to win Ye Chen's Concorde airliner. But he didn't expect that in the end, he would lose two billion to Ye Chen..."

After hearing this, George was on the verge of a breakdown.

It goes without saying what a huge sum of money two billion Euros is; the key is that this matter has reached this current situation. If Ye Chen really wants to expose him, then his son will be completely finished.

In Europe, if a person's reputation goes bankrupt, then everything they have will also go bankrupt along with it.

Moreover, with such a large amount, he would likely be in prison from now until his eightieth birthday!

He only has this one son, so he cannot let him go to prison no matter what!

Therefore, George realized at the first moment that the most important thing right now is that Ye Chen must not be allowed to expose this matter no matter what!

He must try every possible way to reconcile with Ye Chen!

So, he hurriedly stood up and blurted out: "Take me there! I'm going to talk to Ye Chen!"

Richard also said nervously: "I'll go with you!"

Soon, the two of them, along with Olivia, ran into the card room on the second floor.

As soon as they entered the room, they saw William, who had lost one hand, kneeling on the ground, crying bitterly.

And Ye Chen, at this time, was standing in front of him with his arms crossed, looking arrogant.

As soon as George entered the door, he didn't dare to care about his son, and hurriedly came to Ye Chen, saying obsequiously: "Mr. Ye, this matter is because I failed to discipline my son properly. I didn't expect this rebellious son to do such an outrageous thing. I hope you can be more forgiving..."

Ye Chen asked him back: "He is your son, not mine, why should I be more forgiving to him?"
