The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1386

Hearing that Claire was still treating Baldrick, whose health had improved significantly compared to last year.

They had visited the Green family during the holidays and naturally saw Baldrick's condition for themselves.

So, the couple really hoped Claire could cure Kendrick as well.

An elder was a treasure in the family; although Kendrick had retired early, his connections remained, and with him anchoring the Cole family, they could go further.

It had to be said, compared to the eldest brother, Pearce was practically useless.

Finally, Corbin couldn't stand it anymore and told his parents directly, "Mom, Dad, you should head back first."

"I can stay here."

Without his parents around, no one had any objections to him staying.

Even his uncle and aunt actually quite liked their youngest nephew.

It was just that his parents' ugly behavior easily made him a target for collateral anger.

"Corbin?" Winona actually didn't want her son to stay behind.

But if no one from their family stayed, they worried that if something happened to Kendrick, the eldest branch would take all the advantage.

It had to be said, Pearce and his wife really overthought things.

Corbin stayed, the couple left, and the living room finally fell quiet.

Corbin then apologized on behalf of his parents to his uncle, aunt, and even his cousin and sister.

His uncle patted the young nephew's shoulder. "It must be tough on you, having parents like that."

Corbin remained silent, having already experienced his uncle's sharp tongue.

His uncle spoke without caring about anyone else's feelings.

Still, they were his biological parents, so what was there for him to feel wronged about?

"Corbin, we don't have any issues with you, so don't overthink it."

"However, no matter how much your parents fuss, your grandfather probably won't change his will."

His uncle comforted his nephew.

Corbin never expected there to be such an arrangement.

No wonder his parents were so anxious, wanting to perform well in front of his grandfather.

So they already knew they weren't included in the will?

"What, do you have a problem with your grandfather's will too?" Seeing his nephew stay quiet, his uncle's expression darkened.

If Corbin was like his parents, believing that his branch's inheritance should all go to him and not a girl like Cassandra, then he didn't deserve to be a grandson of the Cole family!

If the old man found out, he probably wouldn't even give Corbin the share he had planned for him.

Seeing through his uncle's thoughts, Corbin quickly shook his head. "I don't. Grandfather can do whatever he wants with his things, and I have no objections."

"I just didn't expect him to make a will so soon, and my parents..."

Was he supposed to criticize his own parents?

Corbin found it hard to say.

Because it seemed like his parents were doing it for his sake.
