Alex cried and kept nodding. "Grandma, I will listen to you. Don't talk about it anymore, and have agood rest. Grandma, you must get better, okay?"
"I can't get better..." Belle sighed. "While I can still breathe, I have to make arrangements for you.Otherwise, I won't be able to close my eyes even if I die..."
"Grandma, don't die..." Alex threw himself into his grandmother's arms and burst into tears. "Grandma,don't die, don't die..."
Belle patted him lovingly and looked at Madeline. "Miss Taylor, Brian and his wife are unreliable. If I letAaron raise Alex when I die, Brian and his wife will definitely make trouble for Aaron. Aaron's family willnot be at peace, so I can't entrust Alex to Aaron, and I don't know anyone who is strong enough.Hence, I can only entrust Alex to you! I won't ask for anything else. I'm just asking you to give Alex aplace to live. Just let Alex live upstairs in your office. Think of the 3 million as Alex's rent and food. I ..."
"Are you crazy?" Rachael couldn't help screaming again incoherently. "3 million for rent and food?Does he eat gold lumps every day to need so much money? You don't feel bad because it's not yourmoney, right? How can you be so generous? "
Belle said coldly, "Brian can earn you a lot of 3 million in his life, but you won't help me take care ofAlex! I only give Miss Taylor one 3 million, and she will feed and clothe Alex. If Alex meets with anytrouble in the future, Miss Taylor will help me watch him. No amount of money can buy that! This wasoriginally your and Brian's responsibility, but you're unreliable, so I can only entrust it to others!"
Rachael was about to explode.
3 million! That's 3 million! Even if Brian can earn a lot, that is Brian's income for two or three years, andBelle gave it to an outsider. Who is Madeline Taylor exactly? What kind of pill did she give this oldwoman? Why did this old woman trust her so much?
3 million! Raising Alex doesn't even cost 300,000. Isn't that woman going to make a net profit of over 2million?
Rachael was so angry that she was shivering and almost fainted.
Belle stopped paying attention to her and continued to talk to Madeline, "Miss Taylor, Alex is like hismother. He is a good boy who is kind and remembers good deeds. If you help him, he will rememberthat for life. When he grows up, he will be filial to you!"
"I know, I know." Madeline nodded again and again. "Alex is a good boy. When Quincy and Joel foughtwith the other children, only Alex helped them. I remember how good Alex is!"
"Then I'll leave Alex to you!" Belle squeezed Alex's hand. "Alex, go and bow to Ms. Madeline and thankher."
Alex didn't want to be entrusted by Belle to others. He only wanted her, but he didn't want to make herfeel anxious. Crying, he got up and went to Madeline, intending to bow but was stopped by Madeline.
"Don't." Madeline took Alex into her arms, rubbed the back of his head, and said to Belle, "Mrs. Carter,we don't bow here. Don't worry. I will take good care of Alex."
After all, there were many people in her office, and Alex was a sensible child, so raising him was not
difficult. What was more, there was still that 3 million commission fee. Now that Belle was begging,Madeline really couldn't bear to refuse.
"Okay, okay..."
Belle breathed a sigh of relief and said to Madeline, "Miss Taylor, I have one more thing to trouble you."
Madeline nodded. "Mrs. Carter, tell me."
Belle said, "Find another lawyer for me. I need a good lawyer from a proper firm to make a will. I wantto write everything about today in the will so that Brian and his wife won't make trouble for you oneday!"
Madeline hesitated for a few seconds, then nodded. "Okay, I'll help you."
Actually, it was not necessary.
With her current status, Brian and Rachael wouldn't dare to make trouble for her. But since Bellebrought it up, in order to make her feel secure, Madeline called and helped her replace two middle-agedlawyers. At first glance, they were mature and looked very experienced.
After the lawyers arrived, Belle asked the lawyers to record everything that happened today, includingRachael pushing her and causing her injuries, and then asked Brian and Rachael to sign.
Rachael felt that it was like a sword hanging over her head, so she refused to sign.
Belle closed her eyes and said weakly, "If you don't sign it, then I'll call the police."
Derrick was also very angry. He felt that he had never been so humiliated in his life such that he wasplayed by an older woman, but he was really afraid that Belle would call the police.
If the police were contacted, things would get worse, and his daughter might be imprisoned by then,and their family's reputation would be ruined.
He said to Rachael sharply, "Stop making trouble. Haven't you done enough? Sign it!"
Rachael was even more afraid of being caught by the police and imprisoned than he was, so shereluctantly signed her name while her heart bled with hatred.
She had had a good scheme, but now, it was all in vain. She was still planning for when the older ladydied, she would persuade Brian and hold Alex in her hands, then ask Alex for the house and savings.Who knew that the older woman not only disallowed Alex from being with them but also entrusted Alexto an outsider? Moreover, that outsider was a lawyer!
How can I get the house and money back from Alex in the future?
Belle was obviously an older woman from the countryside, but she seemed to be knowledgeable abouteverything, including the will and notarization, such that Rachael and Brian had to sign the papers thatwere subsequently notarized.
It was now clear in black and white that the house belonged to Alex, and the 3 million belonged to thelawyer named Madeline Taylor. In the future, Brian also had to give Alex a quarter of his annualincome!
A quarter was worth hundreds of thousands!
Rachael felt her heart constricting in pain, but there was nothing she could do.
After she signed the papers with Brian, they went to the housing management office to transfer thehouse to Brian's name and then collected 3 million and wired it into Madeline's bank account.
After this was done, a day passed.
The older lady's health was getting worse and worse. The period when she fell asleep was gettinglonger, and the period when she was awake was getting shorter and shorter. Brian and Alex did notleave her bedside, while Madeline and Leigh would also visit when they had time.
On the evening of the second day, Brian's eldest brother, sister-in-law, and their children all arrived.
Belle, who had been asleep for several hours, heard Aaron calling out. As if sensing it, she slowlyopened her eyes.
"Mom..." Aaron knelt beside the hospital bed. Holding the old lady's hand tightly, he burst into tears.
