Xiao Yunhai's guess was right. After Franklin's incident happened, Elvis immediately called Wesley over. At the same time, he started a video call with Vanessa Bessie on a big screen.
"Vanessa, you've been in Los Angeles all this while. What exactly is going on?" Although Elvis sounded like he was questioning Lin Li, he was actually suspecting that his daughter was the culprit behind this.
Franklin was the CEO of Paramount. Unless he was a fool, he wouldn't do such a thing all of a sudden.
And Vanessa and Wesley had only exchanged positions in the past two months. Could it be that she was the one behind it? That was why Franklin did this.
Vanessa was an extremely intelligent woman. She immediately understood what Elvis meant. She said, "Father, are you suspecting me?"
Wesley, who was beside her, had an unusually ugly expression. He said, "Sister, could it not be you? Are you trying to take me down and make yourself the leader of the Bessie Family? Let me tell you, don't even think about being the leader of the Bessie Family even if I go in, let's not talk about this small matter. "
Elvis frowned and scolded, "Wesley, how can you talk to your sister like that? Vanessa, your brother is in a terrible mood now. I hope you don't mind. "
Vanessa shook her head and said, "Of course I don't mind. Wesley, just like what you said, this small matter can't do anything to you at all. Do you think I'll be stupid enough to use it to attack you? Even if I want to find trouble with you, I won't use my subordinates to do it. Moreover, this person is the CEO of Paramount. "
Hearing Vanessa's words, Elvis pondered for a while and said, "Vanessa, what you said makes a lot of sense. It's just that I don't understand why Franklin would suddenly do such a thing when he was doing so well. Also, does he have a backup plan? “
Vanessa thought for a while and said, "I feel that this is a conspiracy. It's as if there's a net attacking our Bessie Family. Franklin's actions were obviously instructed by someone else. And this other person should have something on Franklin to kill him. Franklin had no choice but to do this. I believe that they must have a backup plan, but I don't know what kind of backup plan it is. "
It had to be said that Vanessa's ability was indeed outstanding to be able to become one of the heirs to the Bessie Family's patriarch position. His guess was right.
Wesley had also calmed down at this moment. His eyes narrowed slightly as he said, "Could it be Kungfu Xiao?"
Vanessa said, "I don't think so. Kungfu Xiao was a celebrity, so he wouldn't do something that would be criticized by others. I'm guessing it's the Anderson Family. "
Elvis snorted, and said, "Vanessa, I agree with you. The entire Merrica knew about this matter. Since Franklin dared to sue, it was obvious that he had evidence. We can't let them lead us by the nose, and we can't give them time to spread the news. Wesley, when did you give such an order? "
Wesley thought for a while and said, "I really don't remember saying something like that."
Elvis asked, "Did Paramount evade taxes?"
Vanessa said, "An hour ago, I sent someone to investigate. There was indeed such a problem. The amount wasn't big, only five hundred million USD. "
Elvis frowned and said, "For a movie company, five hundred million USD is already a very high amount. How about this, since they're suing Wesley, then we'll sue Franklin. We'll say that he used Wesley's words to frame him. "
Wesley's eyes lit up, and he said, "Uncle, you're amazing. In this way, we can turn the tables. Even if I said something inappropriate, I can say that I was drunk. I don't know anything about Paramount. "
Elvis said, "Let's do that. Wesley, go find a lawyer. "
Wesley nodded his head and left quickly.
Elvis looked at the calm Vanessa and said, "My daughter, do you hate Wesley a lot?"
Vanessa said, "If you put the Bessie Family's future in his hands, I can be 100% sure that the Bessie Family will go downhill."
Elvis sighed and said, "Vanessa, if only you were a man. Your intellect and ability are indeed better than Wesley's, but it's a pity that you have to marry eventually. I can't let an outsider enter the Bessie Family. Moreover, Wesley is still young. After a few years of training in the business world, I believe he can become a talent. "
Vanessa laughed coldly and said, "No matter how much he grows, he can't be Apollo's opponent. If we really choose a leader who's most beneficial to the Bessie Family, we might as well choose Fu Roda. "
Elvis said angrily, "I definitely won't allow Fu Roda to become the leader."
Vanessa asked, confused, "Why?"
Elvis had always disliked Fu Roda. This was something that everyone in the Bessie Family knew, but no one knew the reason.
Elvis said, "It's time for you to know. Because the blood flowing in Fu Roda's body might not be from the Bessie Family. "
"What? How is that possible? "Vanessa was shocked.
Elvis said, "Nothing is impossible. That year, after your uncle passed away, the private doctor who had been serving him secretly gave me a medical report that your uncle was infertile. I've asked many experts to take a look. The chances of fertility are zero. "
Vanessa opened her sexy lips, as if in disbelief. After a while, she said, "So, Fu Roda might be the bastard child of Auntie and another man?"
Elvis nodded and said, "That's right. It's just that your uncle is already dead, so we can't do a paternity test. But no matter how outstanding Fu Roda is, I won't risk handing the Bessie Family to him, understand? "
In foreign countries, big families were more conservative than the people in the country. They paid more attention to bloodlines.
Vanessa said, "I understand. Father, Wesley's matter can't be so simple. There must be some conspiracy that we don't know about. You have to be careful. "
Elvis said, "I know."
After ending the video call, Elvis called Aaron Anderson.
"Aaron, did you do it?" Elvis asked.
Aaron Anderson smiled and said, "Elvis, what are you talking about?"
Elvis snorted and said, "You don't have to pretend here. Aaron, don't you think it's boring to use such methods? "
Aaron said, "Elvis, I really don't know what you're talking about. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up. "
Elvis said coldly, "Aaron, I'm warning you. Don't make me angry. Otherwise, the Anderson Family won't be able to bear the consequences. "
Aaron was silent for a while and said, "Elvis, I'll take what you said just now as a declaration of war."
Elvis laughed and said, "So you've already planned this. Wesley is just the beginning, right? Alright, I'll wait for you. "
After saying that, Elvis hung up the phone.
Although he sounded tough and didn't seem to care about the Anderson Family, in reality, he already had a huge sense of danger in his heart.
He felt that the Anderson Family might have found his weakness, and the key to the problem must be Citibank.
But he didn't know why Aaron wanted to deal with Wesley alone.
Wesley was just a university graduate who had just graduated a few years ago. He had only been in charge of the company for a year.
If he was looking for trouble with Fu Roda or Vanessa, Elvis could understand. But looking for trouble with Wesley was really puzzling.
