Task NO.1 How to Pursue Miss CEO novel Chapter 496

Chapter 496 That Is a Forged Will!

When Pierre and Selena arrived, a hush fell over the crowd in the meeting room. Aside from the Fowlers, the rest of the stockholders were also there to watch the drama unfold.

The couple took their seats, upon which Joseph immediately addressed the room with the authority of an elderly family member. “Okay, Pierre, since everyone’s here, you can announce the contents of the will now. Let’s not waste any time.”

Knowing that Helen had been sentenced to death and Chris was not John’s biological son, the Fowlers were planning to request for a redistribution of the portion of inheritance bequeathed to the mother and son.

Since they all believed that they had contributed greatly to Fowler Corporation, they felt entitled to their share of the inheritance. In addition, there was an ancestral rule in the Fowler Family: The patriarch of the family would have to take into consideration every single family member in writing his will.

Therefore, every time a patriarch passed away, the relatives could always receive some assets.

Pierre calmly snapped his fingers, then the attorney behind him took out a document from an office bag. The envelope was sealed with wax to prove that Pierre had not opened the will.

At that moment, everyone was kept on their toes.

The attorney enunciated each word from the will, and she finally reached the highlight. “After my death, my shares in Fowler Corporation shall be divided into two portions, 80% of which to be bequeathed to Pierre Fowler, my eldest son, and the remainder to be granted to Selena Yard, my daughter-in-law. Everything else that I own, wherever any such assets may be, shall be distributed according to the list below…”

Selena was taken aback on the spot. She looked at Pierre, but he merely squeezed her hand underneath the table.

She had never thought that John would include her in his will, and more shockingly, he had given 20% of his shares to her!
