Chapter 687 Insurance
The Devonshire landed in New York again.
Yes, Barron came to the United States two days after he called 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. It seems that this is better than him going to France to meet the other party. After all, the confidentiality is better.
He came to the United States not specifically to meet Lao Sa.
Barron had planned to go to the United States after meeting him, and now it just happened to happen by the way.
When he came to America this time, Barron didn’t come by himself. He came with him, and there was Beatrice Borromeo.
Beatrice has graduated from Bocconi University this year and received an offer from Columbia University for a master's degree in journalism, so this time she came to New York with Barron, it can be considered that Beatrice is here after she has adapted in advance. life.
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 also 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 on the street...
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 still very impressive when you are learning 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.
It was like after Barron and Beatrice moved in here together, the two of them had such an experience that night.
Thankfully 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 reach downstairs...
I can feel it, Bi Tris 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...< br>
......
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, DC, 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 his 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.”
Setting down in the study, Barron directly stated his intention. "We welcome all commercial investment, 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 unnoticeably. When he was about to speak, he heard Barron continue:
"I know, this also involves you..."
"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 small trouble can cause big problems if not handled properly."
"This is not a problem at all..."
“What if Françoise wins this lawsuit?”
Barron leaned forward slightly and said:
“Of course, I am the same as you, sir. , all in the hope that Lilinaia Bettencourt can win the lawsuit, so that not only can the matters you intervene in be reduced to major and trivial matters, but it will also be more beneficial to our acquisition of L'Oréal Group. To achieve this result, You need to exert a certain influence on it..."
Lao Sa shook his head:
"Even if I hope that, it is not convenient because it will cause me trouble."
Barron understood what he meant. In the call about Françoise eavesdropping on her mother, it 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 catch more evidence.
“Of course you don’t need to come forward directly, we will also promote this matter...”
Barron smiled and said:
“It just needs you to exert some influence at some point...”
I am afraid that everyone in Old Sabi now hopes that there will be more changes within the Bettencourt family. This lawsuit can be concluded as soon as possible, which will also allow the matters he was previously involved in to be settled as soon as possible.
As for who won the lawsuit in the end...
Yes, of course under the interests, even the phone calls that Françoise had eavesdropped before showed that Lao Sa was prepared to help her. The mother won the lawsuit, but after truly gaining control of the shares of the L'Oréal Group held by the Betancourt family, she was not unable to establish contact with Lao Sa again...
But relatively speaking, it is Lilinaia Bettencourt who wins the lawsuit, which is the easiest for Lao Sa - the connection between the two parties has long been established, and there will be no more variables.
But if he wants to participate, Lao Sa still needs to weigh the pros and cons. He will only be willing to be a driving force when the risks are relatively small.
Barron himself did not put all his hopes in Lao Sa.
The Weber family itself also has its own energy, plus the relationship between Barron and the Lagardère family, who have a good relationship with him, and the energy of Lilynaya Bettencourt - if the lawsuit can be There will be results in the short term, which is still beneficial to them, and adding another old Sasha is just an extra insurance.
