Task NO.1 How to Pursue Miss CEO
Chapter 448

Chapter 448 Was It You?

"Look at it yourselves, alright?" Joseph passed the will around for them to see. The will clearly stated that John had divided his shares into many parts.

In appreciation of the family's support that made him into who he was today, each member either got a share of the estate or the company, and the remaining shares were divided into two with a ratio of 8:2. The larger part was given to Chris, while the smaller part was for Pierre.

Looking at their names clearly written in the will, the other members of the family were happy as they had thought they might not enjoy a share of the wealth.

"Old Mr. Fowler's will was actually written a long time ago. Pierre was so persistent in annoying him that it resulted in him coughing up blood. So, he had long been disillusioned with this child, and besides, Pierre himself already had the Empire Group, so he decided to give the Fowler Corporation to Chris. That is why Chris was placed into the company before."

Chris stood completely frozen when he heard all of that. It was not until this moment that he realized that his mother was a liar. Previously, it was clearly because of Helen's insistence that he had gone to the company, so how did it turn into a case of going to the company for experience in order to inherit it later?

But because so many people were here, he couldn't possibly argue with his own mother right now.

"Pierre is simply too unfilial and has no respect for the family! He is an a*shole! In the beginning, he was such a lawless child, but Uncle John still sent him to the army!"

"That's right! It looks like the army didn't even manage to control him!"

Everyone was talking and discussing, while Helen just kept on crying without making any comments.

"Since John has left a will, let's make it public and act according to it," Joseph said.

"Good! Let's do it this way!"

"It must be done this way! Uncle John actually left something for Pierre. He's really too good toward him!"

One by one, the other family members felt indignant, but in fact, their hearts were brimming with joy. They didn't care if this will was true or not as long as they could profit from it.

After sending them away, Helen went back to her room and turned around to see Chris staring straight at her, which startled her.

Chris' eyes were a little swollen from crying, and they were rather bloodshot. It made Helen think that he looked a little frightening. Then, she came back to her senses and walked up to him. Straightening out his clothes, she said, "You haven't had much rest these days, so go get some sleep. I'll have the cook make you some chicken soup later."

"Mom, tell me the truth. Did you kill Dad?"

Hearing her son's words, Helen was shocked, and the smile on her face froze. But she quickly reacted and still pretended as if nothing had happened. After dusting some dust off Chris' suit, she replied, "What on earth are you talking about? I think you're tired from all the shock in the past few days. Go get some sleep."

"Mom, let me ask you again. Did Dad's death have anything to do with you?"

"No!" Helen denied it, and she reprimanded him with a stern face. "Don't spout nonsense! Go to bed!"

"Then do you dare to swear on my life? Swear that if you lie, I will be struck by lightning and die a horrible death!"

Helen subconsciously covered Chris' mouth, but she immediately regretted making this move. Didn't this mean she was guilty? "Chris, don't think too much, okay?"

"I heard all of that conversation between you and that man. You guys said you wanted to do something at the wedding. I thought you just didn't like Selena, so you wanted to do something to humiliate her. But didn't expect that..."

Chris had never thought that John would die a violent death at the wedding! It turned out that what his own mother wanted to do at the wedding was to kill his own father!
