"That's right! They will enter Flosinone in batches, and they are all good fighters with clean identities. No one will find out what they have done! " Domenech sneered. His words revealed more information to Jack Ferguson, but Jack Ferguson didn't feel relieved as he expected. Instead, Jack Ferguson was more confused.
If Domenech was right, he would send his men into Flosinone first before coming to discuss with Jack Ferguson. It meant that no matter what the result of the discussion was, Domenech was going to betray Martinez. Otherwise, he wouldn't have sent his men into Flosinone.
Logically speaking, Domenech should've come to discuss with Domenech first, and they should've reached an agreement. Then, they would've started planning, and Domenech would've sent his men into Flosino. Even though Domenech was recruiting men from outside the Ferguson Family, if he wanted to succeed within the Ferguson Family, he had to have the support of Domenech as the second heir of the Ferguson Family. Otherwise, even if he killed Butler Martinez, he wouldn't have the legitimacy to do so, and he would be arrested by the armed forces of the Empire.
However, Domenech still chose to let his men enter Flosino and be discovered by Butler Martinez. Maybe Domenech was confident that Jack Ferguson would agree to his request, or he had other plans even if Jack Ferguson didn't agree. Thinking of that, Jack Ferguson thought of the intimate relationship between his wife and Domenech, and a touch of sadness appeared in his eyes.
Domenech didn't notice the change in Jack Ferguson's mentality, and he continued confidently, "The victory in the Council of Elders made Martinez, that old fox, relax a bit. That guy named Zeke left his side, and it will only take two hours for my people to take control of the Ferguson Mansion!"
Although Domenech was excited about his plan, Jack Ferguson was cold. He glanced at Domenech and said, "Domenech, you haven't given me a reason yet. Tell me, why should I trust you?"
"A few days ago, you and that guy Bernardo patted your chests in the hotel room and promised me that you'd definitely support me in the family elders' meeting to become the new Earl Ferguson. I listened to you, and now I've ended up like this!" After saying that, Jack Ferguson looked at Domenech with a hint of hatred.
Domenech snorted and pointed at Jack Ferguson's nose, "You still have the face to talk about this? Why don't you take a look at yourself in the mirror? You can't even clean up your own mess. How can you be Earl Ferguson if you're so easily caught? "
"Martinez, that old fox, has already used your weakness against you! How do you expect us to help you? Jack Ferguson, you're a piece of trash! Do you know that? Do you know how much you've put us in? It's fine that I didn't get back at you, but you brought this up to me? How can someone like you be the new Earl? "Domenech mocked Jack Ferguson without hiding his sarcasm.
Hearing Domenech's insult, Jack Ferguson was furious. He clenched his fists and stared at Domenech viciously, but he didn't show it on his face.
However, Jack Ferguson didn't dare to attack Domenech. He knew that although Domenech was older than him by dozens of years, Domenech was an experienced grand knight. Jack Ferguson, on the other hand, was just a formal knight who hadn't fought for many years. If they really started a fight, Jack Ferguson might not even be able to survive one strike from Domenech, let alone defeat him.
Domenech sneered at Jack Ferguson when he saw that Jack Ferguson wanted to attack him, but didn't have the courage to do so, "Piece of trash! How did your father, Wegswit, give birth to a piece of trash like you? "
Right at this moment, Eugenia who was outside the study heard the quarrel between Jack Ferguson and Domenech. She immediately went back into the study. When she saw Jack Ferguson and Domenech, she realized that she had messed up. She thought for a while and said gently to Domenech, "You can go back now."
Domenech wanted to reject Eugenia, but when he saw Eugenia's begging eyes, he didn't. He turned around and walked out of the study. However, he didn't want to leave just like that, so he suddenly turned around and walked to Eugenia. In front of Jack Ferguson, he touched Eugenia's body. After that, he put on his black robe and walked away.
Since Domenech was a Grand Knight, he moved really fast. The whole process only took a few seconds. When Jack Ferguson realized what was going on, he walked to his desk and took out his revolver. When he rushed out of the room and shot Domenech twice, Domenech had already disappeared into the darkness. Jack Ferguson looked around in the darkness and roared silently because he didn't want to attract the attention of others.
After venting for a while, Jack Ferguson returned to the study with a red face and a revolver in his hand. He sat on the sofa and didn't say anything. Eugenia, who was touched by Domenech, also lowered her head and remained silent. This awkward atmosphere lasted for a few seconds before it was broken by Jack Ferguson's action.
Jack Ferguson took out a white handkerchief from the drawer of his desk. While wiping the revolver in his hand, he asked his wife Eugenia in a low voice, "How long has it been?"
