Emilio was stunned for a moment, then said without changing his face: “Then let’s wait and see!”
“Emilio, Don’t you really feel scared? If you dare to swallow such a large property of the Jones family, you are not afraid of dying?” Norah sneered, “Even if our brothers and sisters do nothing, believe it or not, You can’t keep what Travis gave you.”
Emilio: “It’s none of your business.” After a pause, he said, “Believe it or not, even if I don’t do anything, you will be punished in the future.”
Norah’s face suddenly turned gloomy.
“Those who do all the bad things will end sooner or later.” Emilio reminded her.
“Haha! Are you scaring me?” Norah didn’t even bother, “Didn’t your good father do all the bad things? He is 73 years old. How many good people in this world don’t live to that age? It’s not fair!”
Emilio had no way to refute.
Indeed, Travis was worse than Norah! However, Travis lived happily until his death, and it was so unfair to those who were killed by him!
Suddenly, Mike came over with a glass of wine.
“What are you talking about! It’s so exciting!” Mike walked to Emilio’s side, put one hand on Emilio’s shoulder, and looked at Norah with a smile.
The arrogance on Norah’s face suddenly subsided a bit: “Our family is talking, it’s not your turn to interrupt as an outsider.”
Mike originally came to listen to the gossip, but he didn’t expect Norah’s attitude to be so arrogant.
“Your family? Emilio and you guys surnamed Jones shouldn’t be considered a family, right? Didn’t you join forces to hire a lawyer and plan to fight for inheritance with him?” Mike laughed and patted Emilio’s shoulder, “Make room for me.”
Emilio immediately got up and gave him his place and immediately ask the waiter to add a chair.
She suppressed her anger, got up, and left with her bag.
Seeing Norah leaving, Emilio immediately raised his glass and toasted Mike: “Thank you for helping me!”
“You’re welcome. Norah is a paper tiger! it doesn’t look like that she is very powerful, she only dares to pretend to be ruthless in front of you! If she sees Avery and Elliot, she is guaranteed to be like a grandson! Elliot asked her to cheat Travis’s money before. She doesn’t dare not obey.” Mike said these words to the rest of the Jones family.
“Elliot is better than my father, and it’s normal for Norah to be afraid of him.” The second sister spoke for Norah, “And now the conflict in our family is not between Norah and father at all, but the unfair distribution of father’s inheritance. Except for Emilio, the rest of us all grew up with the father. Caleb and I joined my father’s company after graduating from college. We worked diligently and obeyed my father’s arrangements in everything, but my father did not give us a cent of his inheritance. It’s you, can you not be angry?”
Mike: “What is there to be angry about! Travis gave you your life, forget it if you are not grateful, and take yourself as his creditor? If you want money, earn it yourself! No Which law stipulates that fathers must distribute property to children.”
Mike’s words made the whole table silent including Emilio.
“Didn’t Avery also take her father’s inheritance? I read the news before that her father gave her all the inheritance.” The second sister suddenly remembered this.
