"Of course." Gabriel stared at Kelly.


    He failed to tell her that thewyer was already at Aquastead. As soon as Oliver returned to Aquastead, thewyer hurriedly came over in secret. Judging by Kelly''s actions tonight, it seemed that Oliver was well aware of everything.


    Hearing Gabriel''s affirmative answer, Kelly became even happier. She dared not be too obvious and sighed to look assured. "Following Grandpa''s wishes is the only thing I can do for him." Kelly lowered her gaze, appearing truly indifferent. But Gabriel knew this woman''s true nature. Unable to suppress his disgust, he made an excuse of being tired and asked Kelly to leave. Back in her room, Kelly eagerly started nning for everything that would follow.


    The next morning, the entire estate came alive with activity. The cremation, set for today, was preceded by paying respects to Oliver''s remains.


    The old many perfectly still inside the crystal coffin. Since Oliver''s death, this was Kelly''s first time seeing him. Seeing him now in the coffin, it looked as if Oliver had merely fallen asleep. Kelly was momentarily stunned.


    "Ms. Kelly, what''s wrong?" A voice sounded from behind her. Fortunately, she was able to quickly wipe away her tears and pretend to be grieving.


    "I... I miss Grandpa."


    Amid the sorrowful atmosphere, her words made everyone''s heart sink. The butler wiped his eyes, unable to hold back his tears. Kelly pretended to cry and stole another nce at Oliver in the crystal coffin.


    It was supposed to be a gruesome sight, yet he seemed at peace. She immediately recalled how Oliver''s corpse underwent a restoration process. It had been wless.


    "Dad!" Suddenly, a heart-wrenching cry echoed through the entire memorial hall. Everyone turned toward the source of the sound.


    Chloe was kneeling in front of the crystal coffin. Gabriel''s heart skipped a beat. He was afraid that she might cause trouble. He hurriedly approached, intending to take her away.


    But before Gabriel could reach her, Chloe spoke abruptly. "Dad, before you are cremated, we should divide the Young family''s assets." She had gotten straight to the point. After a moment of surprise, everyone''s expressions changed.


    "Mom, what are you doing?" Gabriel shouted. He didn''t expect her to be so impulsive. This was something to think about privately, not to be brought up in public. Besides, Grandpa didn''t... Someone was bound to bring up this matter in this situation.


    "What do you mean?" Gabriel was furious. He pulled Chloe up, wanting to take her away to prevent her from doing anything more outrageous.


    Chloe felt as sure as ever that her son had be even more disobedient aftering to Aquastead. However, she couldn''t shake off Gabriel''s strength.


    Gabriel''s agitation raised a slight suspicion in Kelly''s heart. He had promised herst night and even used his connections to bring thewyer to Aquastead. She had even seen thewyer outside just now. Why was Gabriel opposing it now that Chloe brought it up?


    But before Kelly could react, Miles'' voice rang out. "Aunty Chloe is right. There should be a resolution of the Young family''s assets." Miles spoke as if he was the one making the final decision.


    "See? Miles agrees with me too. So why are you not letting go?" Chloe red fiercely at Gabriel. She had a look in her eyes that warned him to settle the matter today.


    However, Gabriel''s brows remained furrowed. He looked at Miles, whose expression had turned serious. At that moment, Chloe couldn''t wait to divide the Young family''s assets.


    "Miles, you''re the sensible one. Miles has agreed to split the family''s assets, what about the rest of you?" Chloe nced at Anastasia and Kelly as she spoke.


    Anastasia responded casually. "I''ll go along with everyone''s decision."


    Kelly frowned, looking as if she was troubled. She couldn''t help but sneer silently.


    Split the family assets? Everything in the Young family belonged to her. How could she let them have a share?


    However, she wasn''t in a hurry. It would be more meaningful to have them indulge in their fantasies for a while before shattering them.


    Chloe added, "I''ve brought thewyer from Young Group and the financial team.


    "After arranging the assets of the Young family including the jewelry, calligraphy, paintings collected by Oliver, as well as the real estate properties, I''ll take half of them as his daughter. The other half will be divided among you grandchildren." Chloe appeared magnanimous as if allowing them to split the other half was a generous offer.


    "Mom!" Gabriel''s face turned red in anger, but he was met with a fierce re from Chloe. Gabriel paid attention to the reactions of those present.


    Miles'' eyes showed a hint of suppressed anger. But it wasn''t because of the decision to split half of the assets. It was Chloe''s intentions that angered him.


    Over the years, Grandpa''s health had grown weaker and weaker. While he had never hoped for the day toe, he knew that certain things were inevitable and had to be faced. Yet, when that moment truly arrived, Miles felt heartache and irony.


    Miles nced at the crystal coffin in pain. However, to others, he looked to be consumed by grief over Oliver''s death. The atmosphere in the memorial hall turned eerie.


    Seeing that Miles remained silent, Chloe continued speaking. "Since none of you object, let''s settle it this way. Mr. Tank..."


    Mr. Tank was thewyer Chloe brought along. After being summoned, Mr. Tank immediately stepped forward. He had an authoritative demeanor. But before he could speak, a voice suddenly rang out. "Oliver signed a will."


    Everyone turned to face it. A middle-aged man stood outside the memorial hall. Everyone recognized him as none other than Oliver''s trustedwyer.


    Kelly''s eyes lit up at the sight of him. That day in Oliver''s room, he was the one who witnessed Oliver drafting the will. Kelly''s excitement surged in her veins.


    However, Chloe''s face soured. "What will? Oliver made it clear that he didn''t write a will. As per tradition, the Young family''s assets will be divided based on individual abilities."


    Although she said so, Chloe was already feeling uneasy. Thewyer was the son of Oliver''s longtime friend. If he really took out Oliver''s will... No. Chloe couldn''t let that happen.


    She red at thewyer with


    displeasure Mr. Kane, just because


    our families. are old friends, you can''te and join in the fun by ying tricks at a time like this. My father is sat right here. If Mr. Kane has nothing important to add, you should leave after bidding farewell to my father."


    Chloe immediately tried to get rid of him. However, Mr. Kane just gave her a faint nce and walked into the memorial hall. He didn''t bid


    farewell to Oliver as Chloe het


    hoped, but instead stood in front of the crystal coffin, taking out a sealed document bag from his briefcase.


    "Mr. Young Senior watched me grow up. My professional integrity doesn''t allow me to y tricks. This will was personally drafted by Oliver not long ago and has been notarized. Mr. Miles, would you like me to read it out?" Mr. Kane asked as he looked at Miles.
