My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire novel Chapter 721

As soon as those words left Nathan's mouth, everyone turned to look at old Mrs. Horton.

She glanced at Lewis, then at Oliver, and smiled. “I'll go along with whatever you decide.”

Oliver immediately beamed. “Granduncle, you heard her, right? Grandma said to go with our plan, so…”

Julius interrupted, “No, what she meant was to listen to me! When she was fully aware, the one she loved most was Lewis. It's under his leadership that the Horton family has made it this far. Without him, we wouldn't have even made it to Clance! If my sister were still of sound mind, there's no way she'd agree to change the will.”

Oliver was starting to panic and shot a look at Nathan.

Nathan didn't hesitate. “Uncle, we've never denied Lewis's contributions to the family, and we're grateful for them. But my mother's will is crucial for us, too. Surely, she didn't mean to give everything to Lewis without leaving something for us?”

Oliver quickly chimed in. “Exactly! Even if Grandma just gave us 5%—5% out of the 20% of the company shares that Lewis is holding right now—that wouldn't be unreasonable, would it? She can't possibly leave nothing for us and give everything to Lewis, right?”

Julius frowned, deep in thought.

At that moment, Julius suddenly asked, “Wait, have you already seen the current will? Is that why you're pushing for these changes? Are you saying that my sister really didn't leave you anything?”

Nathan's expression soured. “Of course, she didn't leave us anything! After all…”

After all, if they could just secure 5%, they'd surpass Lewis's stake in the company. Even though 10% of the shares were unaccounted for, the person with the most shares would still have the loudest voice on the board.

Considering how much old Mrs. Horton adored Lewis, there was no way she'd leave anything less than everything to him.

Nathan was deep in thought when Julius spoke again, “Why don't we go take a look at the will before we make any decisions?”

Nathan waved it off. “What's the point of looking at it? Let's just change it already. No need to complicate things.”

 

Julius sighed. “It's better to check first.”

He turned to Nathan. “Come with me to the lawyer's office. Since the will has been officially filed, it's being kept under their management. They won't just show it to us. If it's really unreasonable, I'll help you draft a new one.”

Nathan frowned but, seeing Julius's determination, stood up. “Alright, I'll go.”

Oliver immediately jumped to his feet as well. “I'll come with you!”

Nathan quickly shot him a look, his gaze shifting between Lewis and Keira Olsen. He then said to Oliver, “You stay here.”

He glanced at Oliver.

Oliver instantly understood what he meant.
