Chapter 363 He's Here Too Among the people present, apart from Oliver, it seemed that only Miles could make a decision.
Kelly was not happy about that. After all, she was the rightful heir of the Young family. Mr. Kane had also witnessed Oliver's will, so he should've known who the benefactor was.
Mr. Kane should've turned to her for everything. She should've been the one calling the shots. However, he chose to let Miles take charge instead.
But it didn't bother Kelly for long. Mr. Kane was just ignorant. Once the will was announced and she inherited the family business, she would make sure they learned their lesson. "You may start declaring the will, Mr. Kane," Miles said gracefully.
Mr. Kane opened the sealed envelope and began to read the will out loud under everyone's gaze. "I, Oliver Young, hereby give bequeath and devise all my interest and rights in my property to..." As Mr. Kane began to read the contents of the will, everyone in the hall held their breath. At that point, everyone was tense. He left all his assets to... one person? Chloe started feeling uneasy. If Oliver's assets were divided amongst his relatives, she would be able to get a share. But if he were to give it all to one person, Chloe didn't believe that she would be the one he'd give it to. "Wait!" Chloe interrupted without thinking.
Mr. Kane paused, and everyone turned to look at Chloe. It seemed as if they were waiting for her to justify her interruption.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIn her haste, Chloe cup with a reason. "Grandpa toldthat the Young family's assets are meant for every descendant of the Young family." "Ha!" As soon as she finished speaking, a scornful laugh was heard.
Everyone turned to Miles, who looked disdainful. He said coldly, "Where's your proof?" Chloe already mentioned that he only said it to her. What proof could there be? Even if she were to make up evidence, nobody would've let her get away with it.
For a moment, Chloe looked extremely displeased. On the other hand, Kelly was getting impatient. She was already making an effort to remain patient, but the anticipation of hearing her name, coupled with the immense wealth at stake, proved too much for her to bear.
"Can you stop it!" Kelly said as she bit her lip. At that moment, even her voice started to waver.
When Kelly's gaze fell onto Oliver, her eyes were filled with deep sorrow. Her face even turned pale, as if she were about to faint from the sadness. The people watching thought that she cared for Oliver deeply. "Grandpa is already dead. Don't you feel bad for disturbing his peace with these matters?" Kelly rebuked as a few tears fell from her cheek.
Those present were moved as they didn't know about her ulterior intent. However, the person in the crystal coffin suddenly moved his fingers. The movement was subtle and went unnoticed.
Miles gazed deeply at Kelly. Unexpectedly, he walked to Kelly's side and held her shoulders.
Kelly was slightly surprised. She raised her head to look at Mile's handsface. She hadn't expected to see compassion from him. Kelly felt extremely pleased.
What Miles cared most about was Oliver. Kelly's genuine concern for Oliver naturally moved him.
At this moment, a thought crossed Kelly's mind. If Miles was willing to stand by her side, she wouldn't mind having his support once she gained full control of the entire Young family. In her view, Miles was far more important than Gabriel.
While Kelly was basking in her glory, feeling as if she had already obtained everything from the Young family and planning for the future, Miles' deep and powerful voice echoed beside her. "If there's anyone who doesn't wish to stay here, they may leave immediately." As he spoke, a group of men in colorful suits entered the room. Their domineering presence indicated that anyone causing trouble would be thrown out.
Chloe's confidence instantly plummeted. She suddenly felt that today's atmosphere was somewhat unusual. After a glance at the newcomers, Chloe was startled. The insignia on their bodies made her heart skip a beat. It was the Azure Clan of the Finches! Why were members of the Finch family here? It wasn't just her. Anastasia also recognized them. After a brief moment of astonishment, Anastasia suddenly realized that everything today seemed unusually peculiar, especially after Mr. Kane's arrival. Anastasia sat deep in thought for a while. She discreetly glanced at Miles and then shifted her gaze to the crystal coffin. She focused on Oliver's remains. From her memory, she hadn't seen Oliver's body. It had continuously been covered. Today was the only exception where Oliver's face was revealed. Several days had passed since Oliver's incident. Yet his face still looked vivid, as if he were peacefully asleep, except for his pale complexion. Asleep...
As Anastasia was lost in thought, a sudden thought popped into her mind, leaving her shocked. She even accidentally knocked over a flowerpot behind her, causing a loud bang that caught everyone's attention. "I..." Even someone as experienced as Anastasia couldn't help but be frightened by this conjecture. Her eyes kept blinking, and her mind raced She was quick to hold her forehead, making it seem like she was dizzy from the grief.

"If you're not feeling well, then leave. Who are you trying to fool?" Chloe spoke with displeasure, venting her frustration on Anastasia She had already been irritated by Kelly's tearful performance earlier. Oliver had passed away, but everyone was plotting something. Was there anyone who truly cared? Kelly was Oliver's biological granddaughter, which made it difficult to criticize her.
However, Anastasia was an adopted granddaughter and was already married. Chloe would've normally shown her srespect, but today she did not consider her important.
Chloe's hostility made Anastasia frown. At this moment, her mind was still focused on her guess from earlier. She was now even more convinced.
When she cback to her senses, she immediately replied to Chloe in a seemingly apologetic tone, "I'm sorry..."
Perhaps because the discovery was too shocking, but Anastasia's face suddenly turned slightly pale. To the oplockers, she seemed as if she could collapse at any moment.
Before anyone could do anything, she collapsed. "Oh my..." The funeral hall was instantly filled with commotion.
Chloe, Gabriel, and Kelly looked indifferent, while Miles furrowed his brows slightly. Only the butle m vel exclaimed in surprise, immediately instructing the servants to carry Anastasia out of the funeral hall and back to her room. X It wasn't until she was out of everyone's sight that Anastasia opened her eyes. She quickly got up and walked to the window.
RULE #1 choose married Through the curtain's gap, she saw a car outside the mansion. Even though the vehicle was discreetly parked, Anastasia recognized it immediately, even from a distance.
It was Jonathan's car! Could it be that he was here too? women They have reason to keep things secret, as do you.
