Olivia took it suspiciously. She curiously opened the box and a graphite-colored ice jade bracelet cameinto view.
The body of this bracelet was smooth and round. The graphite color seemed to be smudged by inksoaked in water, leaving splashing ink at just the right places. It seemed to be able to exude a charmthat had come through the distant and long years.
She saw at a glance that the bracelet was of great value and even her hands shook subconsciously.
"Grandpa, this is too precious. And the shares—I know this is your will, but I can make money tosupport myself. I can't have these things!"
As she said that, she was about to return the brocade box.
Merlin returned it to her again and said angrily, "Just take it since I’ve given it to you. For so manyyears, you have worked hard to take care of your child by yourself. I know that you are not short ofcash and have the ability to make money. I just want to make up for the two of you. Although the thingsI give you are a bit tacky, you have to accept them so that I will feel better!"
Olivia didn't know what to do for a while. She turned to Eugene for help, but he also said with a smile,"Take it. Grandma treasured this bracelet during her lifetime!"
After that, she took a step back and relented, "Then, I will accept this bracelet, and I will not want theshares."
Again, Merlin said in feigned anger, "Oh, child—it's for you, so take it. You have suffered for so manyyears. You have no mother and father, and have to live precariously day after day. As a grandfather, I
feel distressed when I look at you, yet I can't help you with anything. You will be a family in the future,and if Eugene makes you angry, tell me. I will help you to deal with him, but don't be really angry withhim!"
Olivia's nose felt a little sour from the old man's words as she nodded fiercely, "Okay, I understand.Thank you, Grandpa!"
He smiled, then looked at everyone. "Don't feel like I’m being unfair. Everyone can see how Eugenehas lived in the past few years. None of our family's children have suffered as hard as him, nor are theya more suitable president than him. If anyone still feels uncomfortable, talk to me in private!"
Although everyone thought it was a bit unfair, when they saw that none of the other siblings of thesame rank as them received anything, they felt a lot fairer.
In addition, everyone knew well why the old man took out his shares.
It was also to save the lives of Edward and Lara. Otherwise, with Eugene's ruthlessness, it would be areal question as to whether they could survive.
After all, he dared to do something to them even in front of so many people, so if he really wanted to killthem, he could have easily just arranged an accident.
Eugene naturally knew what the old man meant. Although he deeply hated Edward, Edward didn'tparticipate in many things and his mother wouldn't let him make the kill.
It was just like taking advantage of the situation for his own benefit.
As for Lara, he would definitely deal with her by letting her stay in prison for the rest of her life!
He looked at Edward and said, "For Grandpa's sake, I wouldn’t continue pursuing this and I'll let thepolice handle this matter. I hope you can reflect on what you have done in the middle of the night. Thethings that are revengeful and ungrateful on top of the ones that are unrepentant and making you wishyou could kill yourself!"
As he said that, he looked back indifferently at Curtis and commanded in a cold voice, "Prosecute LaraRoberts for multiple murders as well as Edward cheating with her and designing to frame Ms. EllenMccarthy!"
Curtis responded, "Yes, sir."
Eugene added, "Take this surveillance with you!"
