Love or Die CEO’s Daily Dose of Swoon

Chapter 93

“No way!” Steward was the first to oppose. After uttering those two words, he started coughing again.

In the past, whenever he coughed like that, Sanderson would relent, but today Sanderson poured a glass of water and handed it to him with a resolute look in his eyes.

Steward took a sip of the water, quelling the itch in his throat, and then set the cup down on the coffee table with a sigh. “I don’t have many years left. Can’t you guys wait to split the estate until after I’m gone?”

Sanderson spoke up. “Dad, are you okay with Lia going out to dinner with Calvert?”

Steward darkened his face instantly, “Of course not!”

Sanderson felt a warmth in his heart, but before he could speak, Steward softened his tone, “But if Calvert is earnest in pursuing Cordelia, I might consider it. But he’d have to show some real commitment. Cordelia must be married properly and with respect.”

Sanderson remained silent, and his gaze gradually grew colder.

Steward had always favored him since he was a child. When times were tough and there were only two eggs at home, Laurinda would give one to Kermit and one to Steward. And more often than not, Steward would hide his, sneaking it to Sanderson later. But his emphasis on family interests was too strong.

Sanderson didn’t want to argue anymore, “Dad, let’s split the estate.”

Cordelia had been standing at the doorway all this time. Her eyes were lowered. Within her detached gaze, there was now a touch of softness.

She never felt much belonging to this family, but at this moment, she truly felt she was protected by her parents.

Seeing Sanderson so adamant, Steward was about to say something to make him stay, while Kermit suddenly spoke up, “Yeah, let’s split up! We should divide the estate! It’s always Sanderson holding us back. If we’d invested in that project, we’d be making money by now! I want my share!”

Steward was taken aback, looking incredulously at Kermit, “You want to split the estate too?”

Kermit nodded, “Yes, I’m nearly fifty. It’s time I made my decisions. Why should I still have to listen to Sanderson?”

Steward was stunned.

Laurinda snorted coldly. “Darling, both your sons are no longer coordinated. Why force them to stay together? Let’s just split it! But the estate should be divided into four, I want my share!”
