Chapter 258

Anthony, impeccably dressed in a dignified suit, exuded an aura of rigor and meticulousness as he was escorted into the room, commanding a grand presence.

The conference room was packed with attendees, including not only members of the board of directors but also numerous shareholders, all eagerly awaiting Hoffman Group’s future direction.

After a glance around, Anthony took his usual seat, conspicuously unoccupied by anyone else.

The seating arrangement alone was the subject of much speculation.

Anthony’s features were sharp and cold, his demeanor aloof yet commanding, radiating an aura of unattainable superiority.

As his gaze met Louis, a tumultuous tension surged between them. It was impossible to conceal.

Behind the veneer of civility, a fierce battle raged with no room for pretense.

A senior director cleared his throat before saying, “Lawyer, please announce the will immediately.”

The lawyer, momentarily taken aback, glanced at Louis before standing. “Ladies and gentlemen, I am the lawyer appointed by Mr. Presley Hoffman. Allow me to announce the contents of his will,” he said.

A hush fell over the room, and everyone listened intently.

Anthony remained silent, seemingly indifferent and unfazed.

Louis‘ heart sank slightly.

He had ensured there were no loopholes in the will.

“The shares of Mr. Presley Hoffman are to be transferred entirely to Louis. Upon Louis‘ official takeover of the position of chairman, Austin will reclaim his status as the Hoffman family’s eldest son, inheriting control of the family business,” the lawyer announced.

His words echoed like thunder in the room, causing a moment of silence followed by an explosive eruption of

disbelief.
