Chapter 940
When Margaret had Ralph, her eldest son was already about to get married, so Ralph was only a few years older than Alexander.
Margaret had spent most of her time caring for and nurturing her youngest son, and she was unhappy with her eldest daughter-in- law, so naturally, she did not like her grandson either.She wanted to pass the family business on to her youngest son, but her husband disagreed.
Hugo had high hopes for his eldest, and his eldest did not disappoint him either.
Unfortunately, Patrick passed away at a young age, and Hugo had no choice but to nurture his grandson, Alexander, into taking over the family business.
To Hugo’s pleasant surprise, Alexander had proved to be an outstanding successor as he was excellent at handling the family businesses and relations.
When Hugo knew he would not make it, he made his will and appointed Alexander as his official successor to the Russell family’s wealth.
When the will was announced, there was a big internal feud between members of the Russell family.
Margaret took the lead in questioning whether the will was authentic, but for some reason, Alexander had managed to settle the commotion in the family, and everyone accepted the will.
Although a fierce conflict had broken out in the Russell family, the public did not know about it as it was a private matter.
The Russell family had taken precautions to conceal the situation and put pressure on the press not to report it.
Margaret was still upset that her son was not the successor.
Her life would be easier if he had been.
Ralph passed Margaret some tissues after noticing that she had finished her bowl.
After she cleaned herself, she turned to him and asked, "How was your meeting with Ms.Riggs?"
"Of course, it went well! It’s me, after all,"
