Domineering Mr. CEO and His Impudent Love

Chapter 709: Chapter 712: Conversation between David Redington and Larry Scott (2)

Larry Scott waved his hand, “No problem, Uncle will listen to you first.”

From the few words David Redington revealed when he hurried in just now, Larry Scott could roughly guess what he wanted to say.

Among his peers, David Redington’s abilities were top-notch.

But compared to Larry Scott, who had experienced family strife from a young age and taught him personally, David seemed somewhat immature.

Without much thought, David had come over to talk about this matter with Larry Scott.

Without any evasion, David adjusted his tone to avoid sounding accusatory before he slowly began to speak.

“Uncle, I heard… you plan to use the military to go against Lily?”

David lifted his head and seeing that Larry Scott was not angry, he continued.

“I understand why you’re doing this, it’s just to seek justice for my mother. However, if the military really gets involved this time, the repercussions might exceed our control. Uncle, I hope you will reconsider.”

Previously, Larry Scott did reveal some bias towards the Presidential Palace, but it was only limited to private measures, never letting the military officially intervene in this struggle.

The military is different from other state institutions.

The current system of Eastonia is a presidential-parliamentary system, with a nearly non-existent royal family acting as a mascot.

Apart from these, there’s the military.

The military has always been the most formidable branch of power in Eastonia.

The President, Parliament House, and the military, although touted as a balanced triangle of power, that’s not the complete truth.

This is because, among the three, the President holds the least power.

If it wasn’t for the ambitious Rodney Rhodes who had stirred up the nation upon taking power, David wouldn’t have even noticed the changes in Presidency of Eastonia.

The Parliament House, on the other hand, is typically dominated by longstanding, powerful families.

For instance, the Lucas family, a century-old family, certainly holds sway in Parliament, they are the top players in Eastonia.

It is for this reason that the Lucas family is so powerful and wealthy.

If it wasn’t for Theodore Lucas, a traitor coming from the Lucas family, the Presidential Palace on its own could never wreak any substantial harm to the powerful Lucas family.

The situation between the Presidential Palace and the Lucas family is currently tense, Larry Scott has only shown support but never had the military actively engaged.

Now, however, David had heard that Larry Scott has given the Presidential Palace temporary permission to use a small portion of military force.

“Uncontrollable consequences?” Larry Scott, not even batting an eye, replied coldly, “Aaron, you underestimate your uncle. If your uncle dared to grant power to Rodney Rhodes, he is confident enough to take it back. Don’t worry, it won’t be a big deal.”

What he wants is just for the Lucas family to abandon Bella Scott’s daughter.

Thought that this could be easily done.

Who would have thought that the Lucas family would show him their true power as a century-old family?

Whatever.

As long as he can make Bella Scott’s daughter experience the pain Sylvia went through, that would be enough.

If warnings don’t work, then he’ll play rough.

“Uncle, Lily is still a girl and she’s my cousin…” David’s cold eyes flickered.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

He didn’t understand how things had turned out this way.

Just when he had decided to let go, his uncle…

“Ha, a girl?”

Larry Scott’s deep eyes, full of coldness, stared at David, “Don’t forget, Sylvia was also a girl. She was your cousin, Sylvia and Bella, they were real sisters who grew up together. Bella Scott, that worthless bitch, thought that with your grandfather’s protection, she can forget what happened years ago? Humph, since she could harm her own sister, she can’t blame me for torturing her own daughter.”

“Aaron, let me tell you honestly…what I want has always been simple. I am a fair person. The pain Sylvia went through losing a child, I want Bella’s daughter to experience the same.”

His deep blue eyes suddenly contracted, “Uncle, you’re threatening Lily’s child!”
