My Mute Bride

Chapter 384 The Appointment of an Heir

Amid the uproar, Robin walked up the steps arrogantly and snatched the microphone from the emcee. “This will, in my hand, appoint the heir to the 40 percent equity under Old Mr. Burton’s name and all the inheritance distribution issues of the Burton Family.”

Everyone at the venue made clamorous comments after they heard Robin’s words. Suddenly, Frankie stood up. “President Gunson, with all due respect, how do we know whether the will in your hand is the real deal? In other words, you’re all talk without any substance to back up your claim. So it couldn’t be that you want us to believe you just like that when you say Old Mr. Burton has left the entire Burton Group in your hands in this will?”

“Yeah! How could we believe this will?”

“Who knows if it’s the real thing?”

“It’s fake. I heard that Old Mr. Burton didn’t see anyone before his death.”

“That’s right! That will. How could it end up in his hands?”

Sure enough, Justin’s status in Burton Group was not something Robin, who just became the president for two days, could rock.

Furthermore, the key to Burton Group lay in the word ‘Burton’. The biggest shareholder was Arthur. Therefore, he had the final say on who would be the president.

“My words are not credible, but the lawyer’s words are credible. Am I right?” As soon as this sentence escaped Robin’s lips, those words gradually silenced the people at the venue.

It was only then that everyone noticed the person following behind Robin was not his usual assistant. Instead, the man in the suit was about 40 years old, and he looked rather old.

At once, someone recognized the man.

“That’s Old Mr. Burton’s lawyer!”

“It’s Mr. Walker.”

After that, the lawyer took the microphone that Robin handed him with a severe expression. “Everyone, please let me speak. I’m Michael Walker, and the will in Mr. Gunson’s hand is indeed the will left by Old Mr. Burton on his deathbed. It was mainly a recording and my notes. The notary office has notarized the will, and it had legal effect.”

Meanwhile, Justin kept staying silent. However, the moment he heard these words, his pupils contracted. “Mr. Walker, are you saying my Grandpa left a recording before he died?”
