    Violet told him. “It’s done.”


    Once he had gone through the inheritance process, the mansion would be his, and his alone,


    “Bemard’s and Felix’s families have probably conferred behind the scenes yesterday. Today, Felix


    agreed to take just 5% of the shares and the rest of your grandpa’s properties. Bernard got the rest of


    the shares.”


    Rnd held 56% of the shares in thepany. Felix only taking 5% meant that he was cementing


    Cody’s position as president of thepany by leaving him the bigger percentage of shares.


    Although Bernard’s and Felix’s families were in cahoots with each other, they frequently fought among


    themselves due to their selfish natures. For Felix to agree to make such a big sacrifice meant that


    Bernard’s family must have made some sort of guarantee–either that or Bernard’s family had gotten


    some leverage over Felix’s family.


    Kevan was not interested in the reasons that made this happen. He only cared whether or not his n


    could still proceed smoothly–as long as Cody’s position did not change, he had nothing else to worry


    about


    In the afternoon, he went to Pine Mansion. Aher Grandpa’s funeral was over, this ce became as


    deserted as it used to be.


    Kevan knocked on the door for a long while before someone linally came, and they were sweaty from


    having run all the way.


    “Y–Young Mr. Rogers the stall member panted, his speech choppy.


    Kevan found it odd. “Where’s Ben?”


    Normally, Ben was in charge of weing visitors to Pine Mansion–Alter all most visitors who came


    here were usually from wealthy circles. It was only by having a butler of Ben’s station–second only to


    Rnd himself to wee them that people would not feel that they have been neglected or snubbed.


    The staff member looked sad. “Mr. Ben, he is packing up his things in his room.”


    Kevan owned. “What for? Where is he going?”


    “I heard that he wanted to go home.” the stall member said. “Old Mr. Rogers is gone now, and this


    mansion is empty. None of us know what to do now Even Mr. Ben wants to leave too Sigh! Perhaps


    soon everyone will be leaving this ce!”


    Kevan quickly stepped into the mansion and found Ben’s room.


    “Ben? Are you there?”


    The door creaked open, and Ben stepped out slowly. “Young Mr. Rogers?” He was very surprised when


    he saw Kevan. “What brings you here?”

    “I’ve inhended the mansion,” Kevan answered.


    Ben froze before letting out a smile. “Oh, how fortunate indeed!” He eximed with somewhat teary


    eyes. “Old Mr. Rogers must be resting assured now from where he is! Ben wiped his eyes with his


    sleeve. “I will hand over all the keys of this ce to youter.”


    Histone made Kevan feel frantic for a moment.


    “I heard a staff member say that you n to go home?” Kevan asked tentatively.


    “That’s right?” Ben smiled bitterly. “Old Mr. Rogers is gone, so there’s no point in me staying here


    anymore. It’s better to go home and help my nephew raise his children.”


    Kevan had once heard Grandpa talk about Ben–his wife passed early on, and he never remarried. He


    was simr to Rnd in this regard. But Ben had it worse than Rnd–his wife was not able to leave


    him children, which led him to be so lonely for so many years. Because of that Ben put all of his energy


    and focus on taking care of Rnd, who became his closest friend as well as his emotional support.


    Rnd’s passing was a huge blow to Ben. Kevan could understand his desire to not remain here. But-


    “I hope you can stay.” Kevan gazed straight into Ben’s eyes as he spoke with sincerity. “This was not


    only Grandpa’s home–it’s your home too.”


    Ben froze, his mouth opening slightly even as his eyes leared up again. “Young Mr. Rogers He was so


    touched that he could not speak.
