Chapter 15
i dialed a familiar number and put it close. “Trista here, Cora.”
“Great! Finally, you called. For the past several days, what have you been up to? No news at all!” On the phone, there was a lot of jeering and blaming.
“I’ve come to bring you some news.”
“Humph! A domestic phone number, yet you didn’t inform me of your return! My life in the United States was left in your hands. What a heartless person you are, Trista!”
“I’ve recently returned from a business trip. Getting down to business: Have you heard of Donald?”
Someone answered the phone after a brief pause and then stated, “Donald, are you referring to the Lion group’s CEO? You should know that he’s the country’s most eligible bachelor. He’s a man many ladies would love to marry. Is it because you owe him money or because you want to get married to him?”
“What do you have in mind?” I’m awestruck by her creativity. “I’ve arrived at his house.”
“What?”
This time, it was Cora screaming on the other end. “Emos wouldn’t have been able to see Trista cheating on him if it weren’t for you. Despite Donald’s attractiveness, you….”
“What do you have in mind?” I had to cut her off “In the last two days, a great deal has transpired. I know you don’t believe me. Emos and Ashley had been in love for a long time. He tried to get in touch with me while Ashley and I were having sex. He’s now a father!”
“What? What a b****!” Cora became enraged and screamed, “Restaurant dinner is underway for me right now. When I heard the news, I suddenly lost my appetite!”
“I didn’t discover the truth until the day before yesterday. I didn’t anticipate him to propose to my sister on his birthday, which was just a few days ago. Were you aware that it was also Moon and Nash group’s merger anniversary yesterday?”
“What? Merge?”
“A three-year union has been in place. It was only yesterday that I found out. What the hell are you thinking?” I chuckled at my own sarcasm. “Even the legacy I leave behind has evolved since my death. Is it not true that Ashley is now the group’s chairman, as is her aunt?”
I’m curious to know what happened.” “I recall that your grandfather didn’t create a will for them!” Cora replied in a quiet voice, realizing the seriousness of the situation.
“Yes, it’s clear what they’re trying to achieve. Both to develop a strong working connection with the internal staff and in the event that my father passes away, they will have a stake in the company. Their optimism is admirable, and I applaud them for it!”
“What a snub! I don’t think you should have gone that far! Wait! I’ll return to exact my revenge on you!” Cora was on the verge of hanging up when
“Not at all. are you of the opinion that I am not sufficiently disorganized? I just wanted to check in with you and see what you think of….”
“Is there anything else we can do? We can certainly reclaim our heritage!”
“In order for us to receive the inheritance, we must meet two conditions. My father and I have the chance to inherit it if we complete the prerequisites first.”
“What condition?”
A design drawing is missing, so it is necessary for the Moon group to first copy the missing family treasure.
“What is the Moon group’s long-lost heirloom?”
“An ancestor’s crown passed down through the generations is a Bright Pearl. It’s well-thought-out and one-of-a-kind. Our forefathers and foremothers were the masterminds behind its conception and construction. Many years ago, it was destroyed in a conflict that left only an oil painting depicting it. I’m still able to make out the outline of its appearance. It wasn’t until three years ago that my father took me out of the country to study jewelry design and fabrication. In order to pass on my family’s heritage, I need to know how to make the crown.”
“What a cunning man your father is! In what way could he give you his heritage?”
“For the sake of the father and daughter, he added, he should donate the inheritance to others, regardless of who receives it. That’s what I expected, but I didn’t anticipate how different our family would be after three years of study….”
When it comes to the last three years, do you have any idea?C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
A rueful “I’m sorry” was all I could muster “The crown, on the other hand, is exquisitely designed. Although I have been exposed to a variety of jewelry since I was a child, I am willing to give up in front of it. I’m only able to sketch the broad shape. It’s impossible to get back the information, much less figure out how to accomplish it.”
“What do we need to do next? Initial of all, your first requirement is quite challenging. After three years of research, you still don’t know the answer. There’s no chance for you, in my opinion.”
“I’m not sure,”
“In order to inherit the inheritance, you must meet two conditions. What about the second one?”
Heirs need to start families and have children in order to be worthy heirs.
“What? It’s a real challenge. When you inquired about inheriting it from your grandfather, he simply stated his position. How could your grandfather, who loved you so much as a child, set such a high bar for your inheritance when you were so young? What does he intend to accomplish?”
“It’s not out of the ordinary at all. It’s his dream that I’ll be successful and find a fulfilling life partner. My best guess is that he’s utilizing his family history to inspire and give me hope for a brighter future.”
“Oh, I see now….”
I’m really worried about you, “The second requirement of inheritance has already been met by my father’s passing on. The two of us are part of his family. My aunt just had a baby boy a few weeks ago. There’s only one thing left to do now. Moon Group and hundreds of billions of dollars of assets are his as long as he keeps copying the Bright Pearl before me. A little money doesn’t matter. There are a number of reasons, but the most important one is that my grandfather spent his entire life working for the Moon organization.”
I’m curious as to what you’ll do next.
“No one knows that I’ve been acting CEO of the group for the past three years, just like my father. To be honest, I’m frightened that those employees have already accepted him as the legitimate leader of the organization. Aunt might put her people in the group to keep me from returning to compete for the inheritance. Is it possible that I was booted out before I even sat in the acting CEO’s chair?”
“What’s the matter, then? It’s time to show off to all of those individuals!”
“Is it effective? The will is at home…. I left it behind when I traveled three years ago. Is it too late to go back and get it?”
“Definitely! You must go back and get it! According to your statement, the Moon group is the result of your grandfather’s entire lifetime of work. No matter what, you must take it back! Your grandfather will regret losing it if it ends up in the hands of a stranger!”
That was a good answer. As I tightened my fists, I felt a tingling sensation in my fingers. When I first saw it, I thought it was mine. To share it to others, I’m flabbergasted!
When I was younger, I was more than happy to hand over my ancestry to my father with no questions asked. But now? My father has changed a lot since the days when he indulged me! Meaning he’s always been bad, but I’ve never realized it! t
