Chapter 230 Luther's will__2
"I own fifteen cars and they will remain in the family, free for use by anyone at home with the exception of my five antique cars, they will be donated to the Citrus auto museum...."
"What!" Someone exclaimed before Cornwell could even finish.
The antique cars were worth about two hundred fifty million, how could they be donated?
Cornwell gestured at one of the junior lawyers at his firm and the man stepped out. "I invited the higher ups of the museum, they are already here to take the cars."
The junior lawyer stepped out to assist in this process, an action that angered many of the Verdemonts. They were planning to sell off the cars quickly before the museum's people could show up, now it was not going to happen.
Clearing his voice Cornwell moved his eyes around in
The sharp ones in the room perked up at Caroline's question. Indeed, who was going to be in charge of the 100 billion dollar foundation?
Cornwell folded his lips. "I am sorry but I cannot give you anymore information on the manager. Mr. Verdemont chose someone he deemed suitable to head this foundation."
"And who is that?" Emilia shouted, she couldn't help but feel like she had been robbed. "Is it someone in the family?" Her suspicious eyes moved around.
"I suggest that you settle down such that this process can continue and you can all know what he left for you." Cornwell's words flew right above their heads. The Verdemonts continued to discuss what they had just heard.
"This isn't the will that I saw guys, something is definitely wrong here." Ekhart spoke loudly. He had bribed a clerk at T&C who allowed him to take a sneak peak at Luther's will, he was highly favored in it and there was no such thing as the Linda foundation.
Cornwell and Tucker traded gazes, they agreed silently to handle the matter lest it grow bigger.
"What do you mean by that statement Mr Verdemont? What you are saying here is a crime, something illegal. We are going to thoroughly investigate and if it turns out that someone at our offices showed you Mr Luther's will then he will be terminated and sued." Cornwell spoke decisively.
"And you too will be implicated for bribing someone." Tucker added.
Ekhart blinked rapidly, he realized that he had spoken carelessly. "Who said that I saw it from your office? I read through it when it was still a draft, it was in my father's study." He's defended himself.
But the two head lawyers were not convinced, they planned to look into the matter.
"Tell us what happens to the other half of the money?" Paul perched on the edge of the chair, his hands moved and opened the two top buttons of his shirt.
Cornwell nodded. "The other half will under the control of DP holdings."
Cornwell delivered even more surprising news that caused a mixture of reactions. The most extravagant one was Caroline who fainted directly and Nina that started wailing mournfully, a thing she had not done even when her father's body had been lowered into the ground.
Others lost their sanity for a brief second. Ekhart leaped at Cornwell in the bid to put his hands around the lawyer's throat and strangle him.
Cornwell dodged and Ekhart grabbed Tucker's hair instead, eliciting a surprised cry out of the lawyer's mouth.
"Mr. Ekhart please behave yourself." Tucker said as he struggled against Ekhart's assault.
Cornwell had come prepared with security standing right behind the door. On hearing the fracas, they swarmed in to control the situation.
