Baby Alliance: Helping Daddy Get A Rich Mommy Chapter 496
Chapter 496 That Is a Forged Will!
When Pierre and Selena arrived, a hush fell over the crowd in the meeting room. Aside from the
Fowlers, the rest of the stockholders were also there to watch the drama unfold.
The couple took their seats, upon which Joseph immediately addressed the room with the authority of
an elderly family member. “Okay, Pierre, since everyone’s here, you can announce the contents of the
will now. Let’s not waste any time.”
Knowing that Helen had been sentenced to death and Chris was not John’s biological son, the Fowlers
were nning to request for a redistribution of the portion of inheritance bequeathed to the mother and
son.
Since they all believed that they had contributed greatly to Fowler Corporation, they felt entitled to their
share of the inheritance. In addition, there was an ancestral rule in the Fowler Family: The patriarch of
the family would have to take into consideration every single family member in writing his will.
Therefore, every time a patriarch passed away, the rtives could always receive some assets.
Pierre calmly snapped his fingers, then the attorney behind him took out a document from an office
bag. The envelope was sealed with wax to prove that Pierre had not opened the will.
At that moment, everyone was kept on their toes.
The attorney enunciated each word from the will, and she finally reached the highlight. “After my death,
my shares in Fowler Corporation shall be divided into two portions, 80% of which to be bequeathed to
Pierre Fowler, my eldest son, and the remainder to be granted to Selena Yard, my daughter-inw.
Everything else that I own, wherever any such assets may be, shall be distributed ording to the list
below…”
Selena was taken aback on the spot. She looked at Pierre, but he merely squeezed her hand
underneath the table.
She had never thought that John would include her in his will, and more shockingly, he had given 20%
of his shares to her!
John had held 60% of the shares in Fowler Corporation. If she inherited 20% of those shares, she
would be inheriting an astronomical amount of wealth!
Aside from that, John had drawn up the distribution of the assets under his name. Among those assets,
his antique collection at Fowler Residence would be gifted to Pierre. His properties that were scattered
around the area would be distributed ordingly to the other members of the Fowler Family.
“Chris Fowler, my second son, has been a sensible and obedient person since a young age. He is also
known to be ambitious. If he expresses interest to join Fowler Corporation by the age of thirty, I shall
leave it to Pierre, my eldest, to transfer a portion of his shares to Chris. The exact amount of shares to
be transferred shall be Pierre’s decision to make. If Chris does not intend to join the family business,
Pierre shall transfer a suitable amount of the family assets to him.”
Before the attorney could finish reading the will, someone abruptly voiced out their objection.
“This will can’t be the real one!”
“I know! How is this possible? Pierre, you came up with the will, didn’t you?”
“I bet so! Uncle John would never havee up with that will. Pierre, you and your wife received
almost all of the inheritance. If you wanted to forge a will, you should not have done it so sloppily! This
is too obvious!”
Everyone at the scene was talking to each other with indignance. They were all dissatisfied with the
contents of the will.
From N?velDrama.Org.
Knowing that John had passed away suddenly, and therefore likely did not leave a will, they all
suspected that Pierre had forged John’s will because he was the sole heir to his father’s fortunes. As
long as Pierre could give them an equitable amount of assets, they were going to turn a blind eye to the
authenticity of the will.
To their dismay, Pierre took everything for himself, leaving only scraps for them.
On the topic of John’s asset distribution, he had named some of the rtives to inherit certain items
from the antique collection, while some would receive housing properties instead. Other than the
assets listed, the Fowler rtives had no right to take more than their share.
More importantly, after going through the will, they realized that nothing was given to Helen and Chris.
As a result, the Fowler rtives could not fight for a redistribution. They were understandably upset at
theck of opportunity to gain more wealth for themselves!
