Song Zhi and Song Qi deeply regretted their actions. The lawyer was still around. He looked at Song Zhi and finally said, “Mr. Song, I suggest you sort out your assets and make arrangements to hand over Miss Ning’s share of the inheritance as soon as you can.”
When Song Zhi heard Mr. Zhou’s voice, he realized the lawyer was still around. He parted his lips wanting to speak, but Song Qi walked over and responded aggressively. “Mr. Zhou, how could you? We paid you so much money to hand over the will, but you gave us a fake one and gave the original to an outsider.”
Song Qi looked at Mr. Zhou coldly. When someone from the Min family showed up at the banquet, she thought that everyone would quickly forget about the audio file and the will. Unexpectedly, Min Yu was friends with Huo Yao. Now, everyone in town would know about the will even before the night was over.
Other than the audio file and the will, people were bound to speculate and talk about how she replaced Song Ning and married into the Ji family.
Although most people had a lot of nice things to say about Song Qi, there were a few ladies she did not get along with. Now that the matter was exposed, they were bound to take the opportunity to strike her while she was down.
Song Qi had painstakingly upheld a gracious image, but it was ruined in just one evening.
Mr. Zhou frowned powerlessly. “Sorry. I never expected the will to see the light of the day.”
Song Qi scoffed. “What good is your apology? You ingrate! Have you forgotten how we helped you?”
Mr. Zhou lowered his head while Song Qi cursed him. After she was done throwing her temper at him, he finally said, “No matter what, I suggest you sort out your assets and hand over Miss Ning’s share of the inheritance. It is all for your own good.”
“Nonsense. Even if she has the will, 20 years have passed, so the will must have already expired. If she plans on fighting for the inheritance while my father is sick, then she is sorely mistaken. She is not getting a dime out of the Song family!”
Song Qi spoke coldly. Her husband’s family were no pushovers.
She did not appreciate threats and would never compromise, especially threats from the likes of her detestable older sister.
Mr. Zhou knew what Song Qi was like, so he sighed when she refused to heed his advice. He stopped talking. “In that case, I hope you do not regret your actions.”
The moment the lawyer finished his sentence, he bowed and apologized before slowly leaving the hall.
The frail man looked particularly lonely as he left.
Song Qi looked at the lawyer mockingly. “That wuss.”
Song Zhi broke his silence and said, “Mr. Zhou is right. Huo Yao is friends with Min Yu. If the Min family decided to get involved, then…”
Song Qi interrupted Song Zhi before he could finish his sentence. “You are overthinking it. If the Min family wanted to help, do you think she would have to produce the audio file and the original will?”
The Min family was no ordinary elite family. They hardly got involved with other powerful families. Moreover, Song Qi was certain that Min Yu would not sway his principles for the sake of a girl.
“The Min family aside, don’t you think Ning’s daughter is very strange? Where did she get the recording from? How did she send it to everyone anonymously? Has it dawned upon you yet?” asked Song Zhi deeply.
