Chapter: 3598

Leafy didn't listen to him and instead looked at William, saying coldly, "William, if you want me to lift my hand of justice, you must immediately confess the entire truth behind this incident, including who else was involved in making this decision. And besides the dealer, are there any other accomplices among these many people present?"

William hurriedly said, "No, no... only the dealer is my partner... he used to be a high-rolling professional card player at the Las Vegas casino for many years and has exceptional gaming skills. So I often work with him to form teams and win some extra money at similar gatherings... this whole thing was planned by just the two of us, without any third-party involvement."

Leafy spoke coldly, "Is everything you're saying true? I warn you, if you've even lied about half a sentence, I'll immediately report it to the authorities! When that time comes, I'll also pressure the Nordic legal system on behalf of the Ye family to demand a severe punishment for you!"

As he was speaking, Leafy added, "And think carefully, William. If you get caught by the police, you may spend the rest of your life in prison! At that time, whoever you want to protect is irrelevant... you might not even have the opportunity to see her again, and at that point, others will still be able to live their lives freely, while you'll only be accompanied by iron bars."

George heard Leafy's words and took three steps forward to stand in front of William, then slapped him across the face with a loud palm, shouting angrily, "What's going on now? You're not telling the truth? Do you really want to go to prison? You can't bring the whole family down with you!"

William's inner turmoil was intense, and he subconsciously began crying as he said, "I'll tell! I'll tell! I'll tell it all right now... The mastermind behind this incident is also Olivia, and we two planned it together..."

Olivia heard these words and suddenly became enraged, shouting, "William! Don't spout nonsense! This is all your own idea, what does it have to do with me?"

William looked down, feeling helpless, saying, "The idea was indeed mine, but you also supported it... And you said that no matter how much I make, I'll give you half. If I can win that luxurious private jet from Leafy, the plane will be yours too..."

"You're talking nonsense!" Olivia exclaimed, taken aback. William was so afraid of being thoroughly investigated that he ended up revealing everything about himself!

"She suddenly became enraged and shouted at the top of her lungs, 'William! You're still trying to drag me down with you? I must have been seeing things! Cancel the wedding tomorrow and from now on, there will be no relationship between us!'"

"Leafy looked at Olivia and coldly said, 'Olivia, if the North European police confirm that you are indeed William's accomplice, then this marriage won't take place even if you want it to. And even as a first-time offender, you'll probably spend several years in prison!'"

"Olivia heard these words and immediately began crying out of despair, begging Leafy, 'Sir, we have no grudge against each other. There's no need to ruin my future. Please reconsider! Even if it costs as much as the royal family is willing to pay within their budget, they'll compensate you!'"

"George quickly chimed in and said, 'Leafy sir, I also agree with this sentiment. How can we satisfy you? Just open your price! As long as we can afford it, we'll definitely take care of it!'"

"As he spoke, George pointed at William and Olivia, choking back tears, 'You see, these two kids are still so young, and Olivia is about to become the Queen of North Europe. If this matter gets exposed in the future, their lives will be ruined!'"

"Leafy stroked his chin, fell silent for a moment, and then smiled, 'You're right, they're indeed still very young. I wouldn't want to ruin their futures either.'"

"As he spoke, Leafy sighed and said, 'Well! Given your sincerity, I can consider settling this matter privately... but it depends on how you two families resolve the issue.'"

"Once Leafy finished speaking, both families immediately understood his intentions."

"Since it's about attitude, of course, you'll need to show good faith. Therefore, William's father George immediately opened his mouth and said, 'Leafy sir, please don't worry! As long as you're willing to raise your hand high enough, I'll pay the 20 billion euros to you right away!'"

"As he spoke, George's heart was dripping with blood."

"They had a family asset of 100 billion euros in total, and originally agreed to invest heavily into the North European royal court after the two got married."

"Now, William has poked such a huge hole, and this 20 billion euros is already way beyond their current cash reserve."

"George could only take out the money he was preparing to invest after the marriage and use it to pay Leafy back."

"Leafy listened and raised an eyebrow, asking him: 'As his father, you're supposed to be responsible for settling your son's debts. Why are you begging me to raise my hand now?'"

"George didn't expect that 20 billion euros wouldn't even satisfy Leafy, and could only ask: 'Leafy... sir... how can I make it up to you?'"

"Leafy replied calmly: 'If you want me to raise my hand, besides paying off this 20 billion euro debt, you'll also need to show some sincerity.'" JrNovels.com
