Chapter 2084

Langley is ready to fight back. Their worries finally turned into reality. However, George and Elizabeth can not be caught without a hand.

So what should they do?

At the charity auction, they will not be guests. Lanli hopes to humiliate them in this way and let them out completely; But what if? What if Lan Li sent out an invitation to humiliate them in a confrontation? Then, they must be prepared to fight back in an arrogant and determined manner at the auction, so that Lan Li can understand that they can not be easily humiliated.

As a result, they began to look forward to the invitation letter, and began to make preparations early, thinking about how to fight back at the auction.

Their expectations were dashed: the invitation did not appear. Among all the heated discussions in London, the name of "Hall" is undoubtedly the absolute core; But they were completely forgotten, as if there were no such two people in the hall family at all. The shame of being ignored and neglected severely burned their self-esteem. Every minute of every day was a kind of suffering, and then they began to discuss how to deal with it.

They don't even need to fight head-on, just rely on gossip can hurt them to the skin.

This is what lanli has now!

The name "Langley hall" has enough energy to pry half of London's vanity fair and easily complete the encirclement and suppression of George and Elizabeth; Of course, George and Elizabeth are not without any resistance.

In addition to the titles of "father" and "mother", George and Elizabeth still have an unshakable position among the old aristocrats, especially those "old friends" who stubbornly adhere to the tradition. They disdain and will not treat blue Lee differently. Blue Lee has not and can not break these shackles, just like the Viscount Beaufort at the private party of the Earl of Oxford, It's also like the royal family's award to blue rite - even though blue rite has created such a brilliant record, it still has an unbreakable invisible ceiling.

But the question is, what's the use of that?

George and Elizabeth can take advantage of their parents' title, which is an advantage that Langley can't overthrow, but can't turn these advantages into interests——

Their lives, their work and their world are being affected with the times. Those old nobles have fame and glory, but they can't control the economic lifeline. The real economic lifeline is in the hands of the young generation, the rising stars, the self-made entrepreneurs and the upstarts, and in the hands of the groups they despise and exclude. And these groups are exactly the most far-reaching part of lanli's influence.

Therefore, just by making public the news, such as refusing to send an invitation and drawing a clear line, Langley can easily close the door of the mainstream social circle, completely keep George and Elizabeth out, and even cut off their economic lifeline and completely subvert their situation.

George and Elizabeth originally thought that at least this charity auction, blue will be merciful, but... No, blue will be so cold-blooded and cruel pain killer. As a result, the ultimatum came suddenly. If the charity auction could not launch a Jedi counterattack, then there might be no chance.

They have to be present. Even if there is no invitation, they must attend, but it is definitely not an easy choice.

attend?

Not present?

Neither George nor Elizabeth is a layman. They are clear about what Langley was taught, so they can't make low-level mistakes.

How can they not know the consequences of attending an auction without an invitation? They know the shame and shame of being watched, the fear and injury of being turned away when they come to the door, and the inferiority and humbleness of being humiliated when they are humble. They can even depict all the potential pictures in their mind.

But at the same time, they know the consequences of their absence are worse.

We know that this is a celebrity party that can't be missed. For George and Elizabeth, it's self-evident that such an occasion is more important than the count of Oxford's private party last year, because this is the economic lifeline of their work, and it's a key occasion that can open up a situation for them. If we miss it, the consequences are unimaginable

Because it's an occasion to stand in line.

When lanli's energy reaches a certain height, his influence will be deeper and wider, and gradually form a new circle of friends; After the official appearance of this auction, lanli will completely draw a clear line, and let the name of "lanli hall" officially appear, which is opposite to "George hall". Their absence will also become the isolation of self evasion, and they will surrender without fighting, and then lanli will be able to gradually Gradually, George and Elizabeth were completely squeezed out of the social circle.

Cut off your lifeblood!

At that time, George and Elizabeth will be living in poverty. They have no reputation, no honor, no money, no contacts, and no dignity. They can only watch the eyes of Langley. Even Arthur and Edith can easily suppress them.

Life like that is not like death.

They need to fight for themselves.

Absence is self abandonment; And if they are present, they can at least give it a shot in the end——

When they appear on the spot, no matter whether they can enter the auction site smoothly or not, they can at least win a positive fight, and even use their parents' identity to oppress Lan Li. Even if Lan Li embarrasses them on the spot, they can naturally put themselves in the position of the weak and gain the upper hand in public opinion, Win some space for the follow-up battle, and then launch the counterattack.

Attendance and absence, two choices are full of thorns, but they finally chose a more favorable one. Elizabeth understood that, and so did George. Let go, this is the last choice to stand on the edge of the cliff, they also broke out a rare bloody.

"... I don't need to explain it to you, or is your IQ beginning to deteriorate?" Elizabeth fought back without showing any weakness.

She can feel that George's self-esteem and pride are suffering in the sight of coming and going. The dignity of men seems to make George more "fragile". In the baptism of those eyes, he had the impulse to run away after only holding on for less than five minutes. It made her feel very funny.

Elizabeth raised her hands and slightly adjusted George's bow tie. "Or, you can leave now, and I'll stay and fight for myself."

Although this is the battle of the hall family, it's also the battle of George and Elizabeth - they need to fight for their own survival.

George understood Elizabeth's meaning in an instant: without George, Elizabeth, as a woman, would be more able to put her down. Even if Langley was really aggressive, she could easily arouse more sympathy, and even make full use of the helpless effect of "George turned away" to add points for herself, It will be easier for Elizabeth to fight back.

People do not necessarily choose to entrust their property to the financial manager because of some interpersonal relationships, which often requires George to spend more efforts to work hard; But it is not difficult to buy some works of art to show her empathy. Elizabeth can easily resolve the crisis.

Looking at Elizabeth in front of him, George's spine chills slightly.

George didn't say much, but her eyes stayed on Elizabeth's shoulder for a longer time. Then Elizabeth raised her eyes and looked at George, but she didn't flinch. Instead, she showed a smile. The coldness and firmness at the bottom of her eyes spread out in their eyes, and they had their own thoughts.

Then, lanli appeared... Along with Matthew.

George and Elizabeth can feel the whole field of vision projected towards here, just like thousands of arrows fired at the same time, they instantly became hedgehogs, the sharp and burning attention has almost no cover up, so it fell on the surface of their skin.

"Mr. Langley?" As the staff were moving forward, about 15 meters away from George and Elizabeth, he slowed down his pace slightly and looked back at lanli and Matthew with a smile. The subtext was to ask: does Matthew need to avoid suspicion?

Langley didn't answer, just smile at the staff, didn't express surprise at the appearance of George and Elizabeth, and didn't mind Matthew's stay.

The staff knew it immediately.

Without saying anything more, Langley and Matthew came to the door of the cloakroom and stopped two steps in front of George and Elizabeth.

Lanli's expression and action did not change much. It seemed that he had expected the scene before him.

It's no surprise, is it? For their own interests, they can even give up their face to send blank postcards, and they can also use Philip to write articles... Their bottom line is retreating step by step. Now lanli has created pressure step by step, forcing them to a dead corner. How can they wait to die at home? Taking the initiative, holding the initiative firmly in hand - at least trying to control it - is the only "good" quality his parents have.

Objectively speaking, if it was lanli himself, he would make the same choice. Therefore, he does not blame them and will not condescend to judge them.

However, the initiative is no longer in their hands.

At this time, standing in front of George and Elizabeth, not only did lenley not panic, but also there was a hint of fun in his eyes: it was really interesting.
