Chapter 209
“Understood. After breakfast, I’ll go to the Fallen Group,” Grace responded calmly.
After breakfast, she composed herself and applied light makeup before heading out.
In President Fallen’s office, Greg was still yelling, “What does it mean that she hides every day and doesn’t dare to see people? My eldest nephew is dead, and she pretends to be sad? Does she think she can avoid the issue of Fallen Group’s management rightst
“Hurry up and call her out. We need a resolution today!” Belinda, feeling helpless, wished she could slap the old fox to death. However, the principles of a law ab id ing society compelled her to remain calm in front of others.
Before Belinda could finish her sentence, the CEO’s office door swung open.
Grace entered, dressed in a black dress that extended to her hips. Her light makeup accentuated her seductive yet restrained appearance. Her cold eyes mirrored her cold and arrogant demeanor.
Without even sparing a glance at Greg, she walked over to the CEO’s office chair with a cold expression and sat down.
“Speak,” she said, devoid of any emotion, causing Greg’s attitude to change instantly.
He put on a smile and walked over to the chair opposite Grace. The last time he was forced to drink thirty bottles of Rice wine, he endured ten days of torture under various pains.
Now that Grace was truly present, he spoke softly, “Ms. Smith, my eldest nephew passed away at such a young age. I am also deeply saddened. For the past few days, I haven’t had much appetite, but everything has changed”
“Get to the point,” Grace interrupted, her frown indicating her unhappiness.
“He’s gone. As the only one in the Fallen family who holds shares in the Fallen Group, shouldn’t his shares belong to me?” Greg finally revealed his true intentions.

“Who said that?” Grace looked at him, “Are you blind? You are just his father’s younger brother, and his mother is his immediate family. Even if the shares were to be distributed, Yvonne would have priority, not you.”
“But”” Greg hesitated, feeling ridiculed. “Sister-in-law is not capable in business. Look at how she ruined the Fallen Group before. You gave her shares. Second Uncle is different. I can assist you. Besides, I regret my past actions, and I won’t oppose you in the future!”
Grace sneered, “You have a way with words. You want the management rights of the Fallen Group, don’t you?”
Greg remained silent, his face darkening. He knew that Grace was shrewd. Since she was aware of his plan, she would be more cautious around him in the future.
“Fine, since Ms. Smith believes that Yvonne should receive my nephew’s shares, let her come and sign the transfer agreement in the presence of a lawyer,” Grace proposed.
Greg pondered for a moment. If he gave the shares to Yvonne, he could eventually retrieve them. As long as the shares didn’t fall into Grace’s hands, he would be content.
Grace pursed her lips, ready to respond, when the CEO’s office door swung open once again.
Yvonne entered the room, her demeanor no longer despondent. She walked gracefully, maintaining her poise. When Greg saw her, he felt a surge of joy.
“Oh, we were just discussing asking sister-in-law to come and sign. What a coincidence that she’s

here,” Greg exclaimed with a hint of excitement. However, Grace remained seated, her expression cold and unyielding.
Unperturbed by Grace’s indifference, Yvonne elegantly took her seat and addressed Greg. “It is not for you and me to decide how my son’s shares should be distributed.”
“Sister-in-law, what do you mean?” Greg’s face stiffened.
“I have brought Lawyer Francis Jones here. Before my son passed away, he made a will. Since we are all here today, it is the perfect opportunity to have it officially read,” Yvonne explained, her voice heavy with emotion.
Attorney Jones stepped forward, holding a sealed kraft paper bag with both hands. He placed it gently on Grace’s clean and pristine desk.
Grace glanced at the bag, surprised that Edgar had made a will.
“Since it is a will, I am no longer a member of the Fallen family. It is somewhat redundant for me to sit here and listen. You may continue,” Grace said, preparing to stand up. However, Yvonne stopped her.
“Please stay seated. My son’s will mentioned you on that will, and it is important that you be present,” Yvonne insisted.
Grace hesitated for a moment before resuming her cold posture and sitting back down. She wanted to see what Yvonne and Greg were up to.
As Yvonne took her seat, Attorney Jones began to read from the will, his voice resonating in the heavy atmosphere, ‘The testator, Edgar, in order to address the distribution of his personal property after his demise, has prepared this special will.”
With every sentence, Grace’s heart pounded, her eyes uncontrollably welling up with tears. She tightly clenched her fists, listening intently.
Yvonne, too, had tears streaming down her face, and Greg made a show of feigned grief.
In this emotionally charged atmosphere, Attorney Jones continued, “I hereby distribute all of my primary real estate, shares, and other properties as follows: Maine Construction, Cloud View Villa, Moon Valley, Sacramento Field, Hail Highway, Sunrise Condominiums, Infinity Land -these seven properties, as well as 45% of the shares in the Fallen Group under my name, are to be inherited by my ex-wife, Miss Grace…”
