Chapter 368: Aurora Shall Not Obtain It

Everyone knew why Joaquin had summoned them; it was exactly what each of them had been eagerly longing for.

"I haven't discussed the shares until now. I know you've all been anxious and unsettled," Joaquin said, scanning the expectant faces before him. He found it amusing; he had wanted to give the shares to his youngest son, who, ironically, showed no interest in them, while those he had never considered were eagerly waiting. His sons wore insincere smiles.

"Dad, you're still robust. We can talk about the shares later."

"Really? If I were to delay, you'd all be anxious to death. I'm getting old, not sure how much longer I'll live. Since everyone is here today, I might as well settle the matter."

Joaquin knew well what these treacherous hearts desired; they probably wished he would die soon to divide his will.

"Cough, cough."

A severe cough echoed from nearby. Aurora looked toward the sound and saw an elderly woman with white hair.

This must be Joaquin's first wife, looking even older than him, her face covered with dense wrinkles and her body bent severely.

Aurora had never heard anyone mention her and assumed she was long gone, yet here she was, very much alive.

Julian, well aware of her presence, did not even glance at her. She had been the one who tormented Julian's mother the most.

Aurora just glanced at her and noticed the old woman was also looking at her. She had thought most elderly were kind-hearted.

Even someone as fierce-looking as Joaquin was tender at heart, but seeing this old lady, her eyes shot a venomous glare at her.

Such a vicious look! It was as if a venomous snake was fixing its gaze on her. Hatred is relative. Julian hated her, and she hated Julian even more, a thousandfold. As the legitimate wife, she never received Joaquin's love throughout her life.
