Chapter 111
Zachary was so upset by Yvette’s words that his chest hurt. “This daughter of mine is infuriating he thought.
Meanwhile, Lucas wished he could shrink into a tiny gnome, thinking Ms. Zeller is so brave. Can’t she see that Mr. Chambers head is practically steaming with anger?
Lucas also wondered why Zachary would suddenly make a will, not to mention calling Yvette over there alone without Nellie, Winona, or Zeke. The whole thing was strange on its own. Still, Lucas lowered his head further, knowing that sometimes ignorance is bliss.
Zachary took a sip of his coffee to calm himself. His expression seemed gloomy as he sighed softly.
“Yvette, I know you’re still mad at me for kicking you out and forcing you to live in the dorms. Let’s move on from that. I had my reasons. I won’t make you if you don’t want to return to the family. This will is a token of my affection to you. Could you please do me a favor and look at it?” said Zachary
Zachary had lowered his pride and practically begged. Even Lucas felt bad for Zachary as he thought about how deep the latter’s feelings were toward Yvette.
However, Yvette looked up with her brows slightly furrowed. Her gaze was cold as she seemed unmoved.
Zachary hung his head in defeat. Is it still not enough? Yvette doesn’t even care about the inheritance. Just how much does she detest me?’ he thought.
“Give me,” Yvette said.
Instantly, Zachary lifted his head. His eyes were filled with immense joy as he replied shakily, “H-Here. Take your time, Yvette. There’s no rush. No rush…”
Zachary carefully placed the documents in Yvette’s hands and refilled her coffee cup attentively when she read the document.
Even Lucas couldn’t stand watching Zachary’s behavior. Lucas thought, ‘Is this the same man who ruled the business world? He’s completely devoted to his daughter’
Yvette skimmed through the document, which was about 20 pages. Spending less than 30 seconds on each page, it only took her five to six minutes to finish them. When Yvette finished reading the will and put it down, the coffee Zachary poured was still warm.
Then, Zachary said, “Yvette, you’ve finished already? Do you want to look again? There are many additional clauses. You-”
Yvette interrupted, “No need. I’m done.”
Zachary was astonished, but he didn’t doubt Yvette’s words. He was merely surprised how she read everything in underten minutes. How can anyone read that fast? He couldn’t grasp what kind of extraordinary daughter he and Lilion had giv
birth to.
Yet, seeing Yvette’s expressionless face after reading the document, Zachary couldn’t help but feel a little uneasy.
What does this mean? Is she dissatisfied? I already left 60% of my shares, plus the mansion, my antique collection, and a trust fund to her, thought Zachary
Zachary racked his brains, wondering what else he had. However, no matter how much he tried, those were all his assets. Thus, he said. These are all I have. There’s really nothing else. They’re all yours when I’m gone one day.”
Lucas stood by in astonishment. He never imagined the content of the will would be so shocking. The will had basically made Yvette the future heir of the Chambers family.
