    Chapter 487: The Next Owner


    Henry’s lips twitched ever so slightly, betraying a hint of suppressed emotion. He had always believed the Larsons were the same as ever—stubborn, unreasonable, and fiercely protective to a fault.

    “When Tess framed Henry back then, did she ever stop to consider how impossible it was for him to clear his name?” Kylie’s voice trembled with a mix of frustration and sorrow as the thought crossed her mind.


    The image of Nadine shed before Kylie’s eyes—lying in bed, tears streaming down her face, broken and hurt. A surge of protectiveness rose within Kylie,pelling her to speak up first.


    But Benjamin paid her no mind. His piercing gaze locked onto Henry like a hawk ready to strike. One wrong word, and the cane in Benjamin’s hand would havee crashing down.


    Henry gritted his teeth, torn between anger and restraint.


    Time seemed to slow, stretching unbearably. Then, Henry gently pulled Kylie back down beside him, her face paling instantly.


    It was in that moment she realized her voice held no weight here. All she could do was re at Tess with a burning hatred.


    Does she really want to tear my entire family apart before she’s satisfied?


    “Fine,” Henry finally spoke, his voice low and heavy.


    His expression darkened, the smile on his lips stiff and forced.


    Fixing Tess with a stern, almost paternal look, he said, “Tess, for the sake of everyone, I’ll forgive you this once. You’re still part of this family. Everything you do carries the Embers’ name, so this cannot happen again.”


    Tess nearly choked on his insincere tone.


    She idly fiddled with the bracelet on her wrist, his words drifting past her like a faint breeze—barely worth her attention.


    Henry’s temper red at her tant indifference, but with the Larsons watching closely, he dared not lose control.


    The frustration burned fiercely inside him.


    Tess felt his hateful stare burning into her skin. A faint, mocking smile tugged at the corners of her lips.


    “What’s that on your wrist?” Kylie’s voice cracked, her eyes fixed on the bracelet encircling Tess’s arm.


    The living room lights caught the jewelry repeatedly, making it shimmer in the dim glow.


    The stone radiated a deepke-green, shifting to a soft, watery blue whenever it caught the light.


    An emerald bracelet.


    Her eyes widened in shock. That was the Larsons’ heirloom!


    How on earth did it end up on Tess’s wrist?


    Kylie’s gaze flicked between the bracelet and Tess’s face, disbelief clear in her wide eyes.


    “That was meant for you years ago,” Olivia said calmly, taking a slow sip of her tea.

    She grimaced as the bitter taste hit her tongue, spitting the tea leaves into her cup. “Since you left the Larsons, it naturally passed on to the next rightful heir.”


    Henry noticed the sudden shift in the atmosphere as well.


    Watching Kylie’s reaction, he quickly nced down at Tess’s wrist.


    But Tess immediately tugged her sleeve down, concealing the bracelet from view.


    “Then why give it to Tess?” Kylie pressed, staring pointedly at Olivia. “I don’t ept that!”


    Olivia’s expression hardened.


    Inheriting the Larson legacy wasn’t merely about wealth—it symbolized immense power and influence.


    Whoever was chosen would be ecstatic, and those close to them would rise alongside.


    Yet this was the first time Olivia had witnessed a mother oppose her own daughter’s inheritance.


    She had once thought Kylie was merely foolish. Now, she saw there was no hope for her.


    “That bracelet belongs to me,” Olivia snapped sharply. “I’ll decide who receives it. Who are you to argue?”


    Her re was fierce, her presencemanding the entire room.


    Even Tess, who had faced countless storms, felt the weight of Olivia’s pressure.


    “Mrs. Ember, don’t forget—you left the Larsons over twenty years ago,” Violet said coldly, cutting through the tension. “You no longer have any right to interfere in Larson affairs.”


    Tess lowered her gaze, staring down at the bracelet.


    It wasn’t just a piece of jewelry—it carried real significance. No wonder Kylie had reacted so strongly.


    But if it truly meant that much, she couldn’t keep it.


    Olivia, watching everyone carefully, caught the hesitation flickering across Tess’s face.


    The moment Tess moved as if to remove the bracelet, Olivia’s hand shot out, covering her wrist.


    Tess looked up, meeting Olivia’s eyes.


    Olivia shook her head slightly, her lips forming silent words: Don’t take it off.


    Frozen, Tess slowly let her hand fall back to her side.


    Though the Larsons were her blood rtives, she had only met them a handful of times. She couldn’t bring herself to ept something so significant just yet.


    Still, the timing wasn’t right now. She would keep the bracelet on and return itter—when the moment was more appropriate.


    That was her n.


    But Kylie was seething after Violet’s cold dismissal. She despised the situation but found herself powerless to change it.


    Violet was right—Kylie had severed ties with the Larsons long ago. She had no authority to decide who inherited what.


    “If you let Tess inherit, the Larsons will end up just like the Embers,” Kylie snapped bitterly. “Completely broken.”Conclusion
