All Her Secrets By Chestnut

Chapter 2 Get Married for the Inheritance
After the will had been announced, the Swanns were in an uproar.
Korbin immediately doubted the will, but it was announced by Leonel Bolton, Vicente’s lawyer, himself. Besides, Leonel even showed them a video recorded by Vicente, especially for his will before he died, as proof.

Moreover, in his will, Vicente noted that if any member of the Swanns were to object to such a decision, they would be instantly disowned and kicked out of the family.

One had to know that every member of the Swanns was working in the Swann Corporation. They would have nothing left if they were kicked out of the Swanns.

Now, the guests present finally understood why Vicente ordered to announce his will in public. He was doing so to catch Korbin off guard.

Everyone knew Vicente was cunning. Even on his deathbed, he lived up to his reputation for making such a plan.

However, why was Catherine chosen to inherit the Swanns’ fortune? Wasn’t she the Swanns’ jinx?

As he looked at the girl, who remained calm, Leonel felt that it was the first time for him not to be able to read another person clearly.

However, none of these matter. Leonel’s professionalism urged him to fulfill his employer’s order.

He placed the will before Catherine and offered her a pen thoughtfully.

“Miss Swann, if you are okay with it, please sign your name on the will. Then, you may inherit the fortune of the Swanns.”

Catherine left Leonel’s hand, which was holding the pen up to her, in midair, and did not reach out to take the pen from him.
