Rebirth of England

The Devonshire landed again in New York.

Yes, Barron came to the United States two days after his phone call with Bruni.

Because on the phone, Barron learned that according to Lao Salvador's schedule, he was about to visit the United States with Bruni - in this case, Barron would be able to meet Lao Salvador in the United States. In his opinion, this was better than him. Go to France to meet the other party. After all, the confidentiality is better.

He came to America not specifically to meet Lao Sa.

Barron had planned to go to the United States after meeting him, and now it happened to be a incidental matter.

When he came to America this time, Barron didn't come by himself. He came with Beatrice Borromeo.

Beatrice has graduated from Bocconi University this year and received an offer from Columbia University for a master's degree in journalism. Therefore, coming to New York with Barron this time can be regarded as Beatrice's early adaptation to life here.

She chose Columbia University to continue her studies, and Barron didn't have any objections. After all, it was better than Beatrice choosing a university in London.

In addition, Columbia University is located in Manhattan, in the bustling city center of New York. Going to school here makes life more comfortable for Beatrice.

For this reason, Barron specially bought a high-end apartment for her near the school, which can be used as Beatrice's residence when she studies here.

In addition, Beatrice can also live in Barron's penthouse at the Walworth Building in Manhattan.

After all, Barron rarely lives in New York now. He prefers to live in a manor on Long Island.

This is easy to understand. When he first bought the penthouse, Barron was just an ordinary British Duke. Unlike now, his status is already very important...

So no matter where he goes, especially when he comes to the United States, the security measures around him are strict enough - after all, this is a place where the commander-in-chief can open up his imagination...

If you think about it from this aspect, living in the penthouse of the Woolworth Building is naturally different from living in the Long Island Manor, and the security measures are more complete.

Of course, this penthouse mansion is not without its advantages. It is very impressive to study certain knowledge in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows on the top floor of the building, overlooking the lights of New York at night.

Just like after Barron and Beatrice moved in here together, the two of them had such an experience that night.

Fortunately, I know that the sound insulation of this mansion is very good, otherwise Barron would be a little worried that Beatrice's passionate voice would be transmitted downstairs...

It can be felt that Beatrice also has a rather bold character. Well, just now, she was indeed very happy.

But the only drawback is that her physical strength is not very good. Although she is relatively young among Barron's women, she only studied twice, and Barron finally carried her back to the bed...

…

Just like many people who come to China visit the Magic City, dignitaries who come to the United States often come to New York.

And New York is not far from Washington, D.C., less than a four-hour drive.

Barron met with Lao Sa and Bruni when they came to New York.

At this time, Barron and Beatrice had already moved into the manor on Long Island, where the privacy was better.

Knowing that Barron had something to discuss with her husband, Bruni started chatting and laughing with Beatrice and followed her to visit the manor.

"The Gucci-Hermès Group is preparing to acquire the L'Oréal Group, sir."

Sitting down in the study, Barron stated his intention directly.

"We welcome all business investments, Your Highness the Duke."

"But the Bettencourt family is currently involved in litigation, which you should know, sir."

Hearing Barron's words, Lao Sa frowned slightly, almost imperceptibly. Just when he was about to speak, he heard Barron continue:

"I know, you are also involved in this..."

"What do you mean?"

Seeing Lao Sa's slightly worried look, Barron looked at him and said:

"Of course, maybe this is not a big trouble for you, but sometimes this kind of small trouble can cause big problems if not handled properly."

"This is not a problem at all..."

"What if Françoise wins the lawsuit?"

Barron leaned forward slightly and said:

"Of course, like you, sir, I hope that Lilinaia Bettencourt can win the lawsuit, so that not only can the matter you intervene in be reduced to a big and trivial matter, but also for our acquisition of L'Oréal Group. It is more beneficial. To achieve this result, you need to exert a certain influence..."

Lao Sa shook his head:

"Even if I wanted to do that, it wouldn't be convenient because it would get me into trouble."

Barron understood what he meant. Originally, the call about Françoise eavesdropping on her mother involved Lao Sa's promise to help Lilinaia Bettencourt win the lawsuit.

Therefore, Lao Sa will be worried that if he is too obviously involved in these lawsuits, others will seize more leverage.

"Of course you don't need to come forward directly, we will also push this matter forward..."

Barron smiled and said:

"You just need to exert some influence at certain times..."

I'm afraid that now, Lao Sa hopes that the lawsuit within the Bettencourt family can be concluded as soon as possible, which can also calm down the things he was involved in before.

As for who will win the lawsuit in the end...

Yes, of course, under the interests, even if the conversation that Francoise overheard before showed that Lao Sa was ready to help her mother win the lawsuit, but after she really got hold of the shares of L'Oreal Group held by the Bettencourt family, she could establish contact with Lao Sa again...

But relatively speaking, it is the most convenient for Lao Sa to win the lawsuit by Lilinaya Bettencourt herself-the connection between the two parties has long been established, and there will be no more variables.

But if he wants to participate in it, Lao Sa still needs to weigh the pros and cons. Only when the risks are relatively small, he is willing to be one of the driving forces.

Barron himself did not put all his hopes on Lao Sa.

The Weber family itself has its own power, plus Barron's relationship with the Lagardere family, with whom he has a good relationship, and Lilina Bettencourt's own power - if the lawsuit can have a result in the short term, it will still be beneficial to them, and adding an old Sa is just an extra insurance.
