Chapter 71
Leonard’s povBelonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Is Trista’s marriage to Donald real? Does she be pampered to the hilt? Because if they weren’t, how could these servants be so respectful! One hundred thousand dollars is a lot of money to pay for La Romanee-Conti. How did they manage to part with so much cash?
Unfortunately, I’d already missed my chance to mediate because the issue was out of hand.
Fanny softly stated, “Trista, when are you going to marry Mr. Donald? What’s holding you back from telling us?”
“Yes, that’s correct, sis. As it turns out, my brother-in-law was just a few feet away from us. Please introduce him to the rest of us.” Ashley’s voice was clearly heard!
“I’m here today to reclaim what’s mine,” I declare. Trista lifted her eyebrows towards Ira
Ira gave her a reassuring nod.
I have a nasty feeling about this scene!
Wedding images of newlyweds were replaced by a white and black will in the corner of the Garden Restaurant’s enormous screen.
It’s a wonder! Why does it have to be here?
Fanny and Ashley were unable to speak as we stared at each other. We quickly grasped what had happened when they recalled that Heidi had taken something!
She said, “the object you see today was left by my grandfather before he died.””
I was startled because I knew exactly what she was going to say. “Stop it, Trista. Let’s go back to our house and discuss it. Remove everything from the screen, please! It’s time to get moving!”
Ira had already intervened when his men were going to carry out the command.
“Wait for just a second,” I begged.
“What’s going on?” Trista inquired “There are two copies of the will. You can plainly read every word on it when it is magnified. After the death of my grandfather, I will vie with my father for the Moon group80 percent and the Swift family’s billions of dollars in assets. First in line to inherit is whoever achieves the requirements first.”
“Trista, please stop talking. Shut up, or I’ll kill you!”
In the nick of time, Ira and the others intervened, preventing me from approaching her. “Mr. Leonard, please don’t interrupt her harshly when she’s speaking. Don’t blame us for being rude!”
In order for the Moon group to succeed, they must imitate the moon group’s Bright Pearl.
“Both parties must form a family in order to assure their pleasure and contentment. To put it another way, my father and I will be the ones to receive the inheritance if we both achieve the two requirements first.”
“What? Is that the case?”
“Mr. Leonard has always been in charge of the group. When I saw the group, I assumed Mr. Troy had already given it to him.”
When I opened the will, I didn’t expect to find Miss Trista named as a beneficiary.
“How could you? How many mysteries are shrouded in the Swifts’ past?”
……
“My father united the Moon and Nash groups without my permission and changed the name to the Star Nash group when I was studying overseas. The group he formed also included my sister, brother-in-law, and stepmother. He disclosed my death to the media without my consent, denying me the opportunity to inherit!” Everybody was stunned by Trista’s utterances, which surprised everyone.
I’ve completely lost my semblance of self-respect! finished! My life had come to an end.
POV of Trista
I raised my head and took a deep breath.
Emos and Ashley trembled.
Fanny gritted her teeth and muttered, “I don’t know.” “It’s a hoax! Your will must be a forgery! It was not written by your granddad in the least! It is obvious that you are not telling the truth!”
“Really?” I turned my attention to Donald. A man emerged as soon as he gave a tiny nod!
All eyes were fixed on the man.
Aren’t you Rupert, a well-known City attorney?
In the wake of Troy’s death, he seemed to have vanished from public view in City A, until today!”
“Yes…. He won’t let me stay in City A. That’s why they were trying to get me out of the house. You promised to let me go as long as my family left this place,” said Rupert, “Mr. Donald.” Rupert was frightened and angry. “Mr. Donald, you promised that you would let me go as long as my family left this place,” said Rupert, who was frightened and angry. But you broke your commitment by sending men to pursue me in secret time and time again. When you’re in the spotlight, I’ll show you what you really look like!”
“Also?”
One by one, several of their grandfather’s former servants appeared, surprising everyone.
“During his lifetime, we were entrusted to care for Mr. Troy. Lawyer Rupert was invited by him to draw out a will before his death. It was there in front of our eyes!”
“A man named Mr. Leonard wanted to take control of his own destiny, and he scared for our safety by threatening to kill us. Our only option would have been to surrender to him if we hadn’t escaped so far!”
More and more guests began to notice the three of them, so they started pointing fingers.
“Leonard’s cruelty and callousness astound me. Is it any wonder that he has killed so many people in order to carry out his plans?”
“He used to be a generous philanthropist who helped people all around the world. Everybody had no idea he was capable of such a terrible deed in the dark!”
I went on to say, “Because you didn’t want me to acquire the will, you put these servants in a tough spot. Grandpa left a will, but you hid it and forced the others to join you! Heidi is a devoted member of the Swift clan. She only wants to return the will to me as a kind of vengeance. But you killed her, not just wounded her! It is you who have committed the crimes! Because the law won’t let you go!”
Fanny fought back in her own defense. “What on earth are you referring to? I’m at a loss for words!”
“You’re not getting it, are you? It doesn’t really matter. I’m able to prove it!”
The bodyguards nodded in agreement.
Surveillance footage began to play on the big screen soon afterward. the scenario in which Heidi was found by the Swifts and put into their car came into vision, which was shocking!
“Do you believe you’ll be able to get away from us?” ” When I raised my eyes to the huge screen, I saw dried blood in the vacant place where Heidi had been killed. Whoever took these photographs, I don’t know. That which hasn’t been washed away is probably the most powerful proof!
There was a sudden appearance on the screen of a blood test and a hair test report. My teeth gnashed together, I muttered: “That’s where I found them. Heidi’s hair and the blood on the ground belong to the same person, as shown by the comparison. Here, Heidi was murdered by you. Do I have this correct?”
Everybody screamed in shock.
P. O. V of Donald
Ira got the hint when I raised my eyes. Ira brought several Swift family servants over immediately.
“Isn’t it time to face the facts? This is irrelevant. The truth will come out of their servants’ mouths!”
Several maids whispered in hushed tones –
“MRS… She ordered to brutally execute Heidi!”
In front of the mountain, we witnessed Heidi’s body being loaded into a car and buried in the bamboo forest.
She hates her because Heidi is loyal.
“Kidnappers recently took hostage and demanded a hefty ransom. Mrs was the one who refused to help her.”
There’s a connection between the cruise ship accident, after all!
……
What are you doing? Don’t throw mud at me!!” Fanny’s brow furrowed in frustration!
Our story is the truth, and we’re sticking to it!
“Absolutely!”
We have suffered greatly because of her!”
……
“Enough!” It was clear that Fanny was enraged by them. Once we return, you’ll be in big danger if you dare to speak another thing.
Several of the housekeepers took a closer look at me.
“Ira, They are now a part of the Pagoda Mansion family,” I stated in a calm manner.
