Chapter 304: Chapter 304: This Girl Really Has a Sweet Mouth.

"According to Mr. Connor Bell’s will, his estate will be distributed in the following manner."

Attorney Feng cleared his throat and began reading its contents.

"Five percent of Bell Group’s shares will be inherited by his wife, Lyra Gunn, thirty percent by his daughter, Julia Land, five percent by Maxwell Bell, with the remaining assets to be split evenly between wife and daughter."

Upon hearing this distribution, Madame Bell’s face showed a slight change, but she did not say anything, while Maxwell Bell nodded calmly.

Julia Land felt somewhat surprised, as she had not expected Mr. Bell to leave her such a significant portion of shares.

After Attorney Feng finished reading the will, he looked up at those present, "That is Mr. Connor Bell’s will. If the family members have no objections, we’ll begin processing the relevant inheritance procedures."

Madame Bell nodded and smiled faintly, "I have no objections, this was my husband’s decision, and I will respect it."

Maxwell Bell also nodded in agreement, "I too have no objections."

It was at this moment that Julia Land said, "I renounce my right to inheritance, please give my shares and property to Madame Bell."

Her statement left everyone present stunned.

Maxwell Bell looked at Julia Land with a hint of surprise.

Madame Bell immediately looked displeased on the spot, "Julia Land, regardless of anything, this is your father’s wish for you."

Julia Land spoke evenly, "I will not accept the Bell family’s property."

Madame Bell suddenly felt a stifling sensation in her chest, she just couldn’t believe... couldn’t believe that she wanted to sever ties with the Bell family so desperately!

Attorney Feng was also taken aback, as it was no small sum of property, and he confirmed, "Miss Land, are you sure you want to renounce your right to inheritance? Please think this over carefully."

Julia Land nodded firmly, "Yes, I’m sure."

Madame Bell, with a cold expression, said no more.

Maxwell Bell frowned slightly, he had not expected Julia Land to be so steadfast.

Attorney Feng nodded, as everyone seemed to have no issues, he needed to take care of the paperwork to transfer Julia Land’s shares and property to Madame Bell.

Once the paperwork was all done, and Madame Bell and the others had signed, the matter was settled.

Julia Land stood up, gave a slight nod as a gesture, and left the lawyer’s office first.

After getting into the car, she instructed Tyler Hughes, "Drive straight back to the office."

Madame Bell stood on the steps, her gaze complex as she watched Julia Land’s retreating figure step into the car, her heart filled with mixed feelings.

Maxwell Bell stood by Madame Bell’s side and said softly, "Aunt, let me take you home."

Madame Bell snapped back to reality, nodded, "Okay."

The car steadily made its way back to the office.

Sitting in the car, Madame Bell looked somewhat sad, "Arthur, her renouncing the inheritance took me by surprise and made me quite upset."

Maxwell Bell was at a loss for how to console Madame Bell at the moment.

He could only suggest, "Aunt, you could give the shares and property to cousin sister later."

Madame Bell was silent for a while, then let out a soft sigh, "Mm."

Seeing that Madame Bell was not in good spirits, Maxwell Bell was worried it might affect her health.

So after he took Madame Bell back to the old Bell family mansion, he pulled out his phone and called Celeste Lewis.

Celeste Lewis, upon receiving a call from her fiancé, immediately answered with joy, "Arthur, what’s the matter?"

Maxwell Bell’s voice came through from the other end of the phone, "Celeste, are you free right now?"

Celeste Lewis was in the middle of a perm and, though busy, knew it was rare for Arthur to call and ask if she was free.

She immediately responded, "I’m free."

Her heart couldn’t help but feel overjoyed, guessing whether Arthur wanted to ask her out for a meal.

Celeste Lewis couldn’t contain her happiness.

It was then that Maxwell Bell, on the other end of the phone, said, "If you’re free, could you do me a favor? Aunt is not in a good mood today, I’d like you to go to the old Bell mansion and keep her company, have a chat with her."

Celeste Lewis instantly restrained the smile on her face, feeling a bit disappointed: Oh, it’s for the sickly aunt.

She quickly feigned a concerned tone, "What happened? I’ll be right over."

Maxwell Bell said in a low voice of gratitude, "Thank you. Aunt’s mood is a bit down because of cousin sister today, she could use some company and conversation."

Celeste Lewis, reluctant at the thought of having to cheer someone up, understood that Madame Bell was an important relative to Maxwell Bell.

"Don’t worry, I’ll head over as soon as possible."

After hanging up the phone, Celeste Lewis asked the stylist to quickly fix her hair, as she decided not to continue with the perm.

She hurried to the old Bell mansion.

Upon arriving at the old Bell mansion, Celeste Lewis walked into the living room.

She saw that only Madame Bell was seated on the living room sofa without the elder Mrs. Gunn, and greeted her with a smile, "Aunt."

Madame Bell looked up to see Celeste and, somewhat surprised, asked with a smile, "Celeste, what brings you here so suddenly?"

Celeste Lewis sat next to Madame Bell, coyly blinked and said, "I missed you."

Madame Bell was amused by her, the worry on her face slightly eased, "You sweet talker, you."

Celeste Lewis laughed, "I need your help to pick out a wedding dress; there are so many, and I like each one, what should I do?"

Upon hearing this, Madame Bell’s smile became more evident, "This is important, of course, we need to pick carefully."

Celeste Lewis nodded, opened her tablet, and showed the wedding dress photos to Madame Bell, "Aunt, have a look."

Madame Bell looked seriously with Celeste Lewis at the wedding dresses, temporarily putting aside thoughts of Julia Land.

"How about this one?" Madame Bell pointed at a lace wedding gown with a design that was both simple and playful.

Celeste Lewis examined it closely and said joyfully, "I think this one works too! Aunt, you have great taste."

Madame Bell glanced at her with amusement, "Is it Arthur who asked you to come?"

Celeste Lewis exclaimed, raising a thumb, "Aunt, you’re so clever, and Arthur did want me to come and chat with you."

Madame Bell sighed, "You two are good kids."

Why did she seem to have such a conflict with Julia Land? Mother and daughter just couldn’t get along.

Celeste Lewis cautiously inquired, "Aunt, what happened? Did Julia Land upset you?"

Madame Bell smiled bitterly, "Julia, she’s renounced all rights to the Bell inheritance. I was wrong, I’ve actually caused my daughter to hate me this much."

Celeste Lewis instantly held her breath, her heart churning, it was about the inheritance.

Julia Land had actually given up her right to inheritance!!!

At this moment, Celeste Lewis felt like cheering and setting off fireworks to celebrate,

She tried to contain her excitement, comforting softly, "Aunt, perhaps one day Julia Land will have a change of heart."
