“What do you mean by thinking of taking it back? Is my niece not part of the Schultz family anymore?”

“As for you, it seems you haven’t realized until now that your ambitions are quite big. You’re eyeing my niece’s dowry, you’re eyeing my sister’s bridal gifts, and now you really think of yourself as the head of the Schultz family?”

Brian sneered disdainfully. If it weren’t for being at the Grant family house, his bad temper might have flared up by now.

Lily felt a bit annoyed with herself for blurting out her true thoughts in the heat of the moment.

She quickly forced a smile and explained, “You’ve misunderstood me. That’s not what I meant. Of course, her mother’s collection should rightfully be inherited and managed by Joycelyn.”

Lily had already exposed her true intentions, so she had no choice but to take a step back for now, avoiding further confrontation with the Spencer family.

When the time came, she simply wouldn’t hand anything over to Joycelyn.

Timothy, who had been sitting silently all this time, now looked darker than ever, his expression unreadable.

“Now that our three families are united as one, we should discuss matters together and resolve them properly. The Grant family isn’t after anything from the Schultz family, but what rightfully belongs to Joycelyn must be secured. The Schultz family is her maternal family. Naturally, we have the right to speak on this,” Isolde said.

“You’re absolutely right, Mrs. Grant.” Lily immediately nodded in agreement, putting on an obedient and agreeable facade.

Bellina was reluctant to stay silent, but Lily stopped her.

Richard lowered his gaze, clearly having given up on arguing and simply waiting for everyone to reach a conclusion.

“Dad, this is the inheritance contract I had Sebastian draft. The Schultz family had already set aside a share of the estate for Joycelyn.”

“Just now, Uncle Miguel and Uncle Brian suggested that all the assets our mother previously held should also be transferred to Joycelyn’s child. Since the child hasn’t been born yet, Joycelyn will act as the trustee for now.” Timothy remained expressionless, his tone cold and firm as he handed the iPad to Richard.

Without even looking at it, Richard simply said, “You decide. If your grandfather agrees, so do I.

“Then let Joycelyn take a look.” Timothy retracted the iPad and prepared to hand it to Joycelyn.

However, Bellina, disregarding the pain in her arm, quickly reached out and snatched it away. “Let me see!”

She and Lily stared intently at the screen.
