"Meaning, before Eason even knew about what happened between you and Nate, he had already drawn up his will, which clearly stated that 70% of his inheritance would go to you and 30% to me and Steven, the day after he went into the hospital." Violet's voice was clear and cold as she spoke.
Talia's eyes widened, "That's impossible!"
Eason actually set up a will so early and left 70% to her?
How was this possible!
Eason had always taken his money very seriously, never refusing to reveal to her where it was and how much he had, and even when she asked him for money, he was as stingy as he could be.
So how could he have written his will that early and given her that much?
Not to mention Talia, even Jessie was surprised, "Violet, is it really true?"
"Yes." Violet took out her phone from her bag, tapped on the photo album and flipped out a photo, then pressed the phone against the glass window, "This photo, it's of that will, it has the date on it. The date was the day after Eason collapsed and went into the hospital, at that time, he knew he might not live long, so he made the will."
It was for this moment that he asked Lawyer Hopkins for this will.
She knew Talia might see her, which was why she made it a point to shoot it, and now it came in handy.
Talia looked at Violet's phone, looking at the date on it, as well as the distribution of property on the will, and she was dumbfounded.
She could not believe it was true!
There was still Eason's own signature on there, and she was familiar with Eason's writing, so she could tell at a glance if it was real or not.
So, Eason was really ready to give her so many properties at that time.
Looking at Talia's disbelieving look, Violet blandly put the phone back, "At that time, Eason didn't know about you and Nate yet, let alone the fact that you drugged him before he could not live long, and he hadn't had a stroke yet. The signatures on this were all done by him personally, and there was still video there from Lawyer Hopkins to testify, so you just had to hold on and not talk to Nate on the phone, and maybe you would have inherited his estate by now."
Talia's lips trembled, she did not speak, but she regretted it.
Yeah, if she had held back and not answered the phone, she wouldn't be in jail right now, wouldn't be on death row.
Probably, she had already had the will and lived a happy with Nate and Filip.
Violet didn't know what Talia had in mind, if she did, she would definitely think that Talia was imagining.
Even if Eason didn't know Talia did it, she did.
She wouldn't let Talia go, so in the end, Talia would end up in the same place.
"In addition to the inheritance, Eason was even worried that you won't have children to be filial to in the future, so he booked you a nursing home early, arranging for the rest of your life. Eason really cared about you." Violet muttered.
Jessie was amazed, "Your scum dad is thinking quite a lot about her."
"Yeah." Violet nodded noncommittally.
Tears flowed down Talia's face.
And Eason actually did this for her?
If the inheritance made her start to regret everything she did to Eason, with the addition of this, she was really regretting it.
Yes, Eason was macho, bad-tempered and stingy, but she could still get what she wanted.
And this was something that Nate could not give her. Although Nate was gentle to her and would coax her, but Nate could never give her what she wanted. It was always her offering to Nate.
She never used to compare Eason with Nate, thinking that a man who understood her and treated her gently like Nate was what she wanted, and that Eason was nowhere near as good as Nate.
But now she was starting to question if Nate was really right for her.
If she didn't have money to give to Nate, would Nate really be gentle with her, would he really coax her?
It was not a must.
Maybe Nate didn't love her, and if he did, how could he have let her seduce rich men over twenty years ago, and then let her give him money?
At this moment, many facts that had not been seen in the past were clear.
