Chapter 903: 903. Inherit his legacy
Sophia Green couldn’t bear to think any deeper.
Originally, when Adam Jones had his accident, although she felt sad, the thought of Elly Campbell, that wretched woman having to live as a widow without Adam Jones to support her and no longer being able to be as arrogant as before, delighted her for days.
She had been looking forward to the moment she could appear in front of Elly Campbell and thoroughly crush her, but instead, she ended up being the one crushed by her.
Elly Campbell ignored her and turned to face Ms. Thompson, continuing,
"So, whether you sell this 10% of the shares to Edward Gresia doesn’t matter to me at all. Understand?"
Elly Campbell gave Ms. Thompson a look that screamed "idiot", then turned and left, her figure still as arrogant as ever, making one grit their teeth.
"Impossible!"
The moment Elly Campbell walked out, Ms. Thompson shouted in disbelief.
Or rather, it wasn’t that she couldn’t believe it, but that she didn’t want to believe it.
She had been thinking that once Adam Jones’s body was no longer found and he was officially declared dead, she could, in her capacity as his mother, still inherit his wealth.
According to the current domestic inheritance law, the people who could inherit Adam Jones’s estate were only his spouse Elly Campbell, their son William Campbell, and as his mother, herself.
Despite having left him decades ago, both by blood and by law, she was his mother, fully eligible to inherit Adam Jones’s estate.
She had been thinking that once Adam Jones was officially declared dead, she could rightfully inherit one-third of his wealth; by then, she could take one-third out of that 50% shares, amounting to 26% of the shares in total, and sell all those shares to Edward Gresia—she would never run out of money in this lifetime.
Not to mention Adam Jones’s private assets.
Just one Jones Island alone was worth tens of billions, not to mention his other private assets.
With that money, in the future, whether it was Old Mr. Young or Sophia Green, this burden, they would have to treat her like an ancestor, not to mention how comfortable her life would be.
But before the Jones family could officially announce Adam Jones’s death, she heard from Elly Campbell’s mouth that Adam Jones had given all his Jones shares to her.
Then that extra 16% of the shares was gone!
The shares were given to Elly Campbell, but what about his other private assets?
Ms. Thompson couldn’t accept this at all; Adam Jones’s wealth, which was so immense, why should it all go to that woman, Elly Campbell.
Elly Campbell, observing the changing expressions on Ms. Thompson’s face, finally realized she had never considered that this woman could harbor such shamelessly inhuman thoughts.
To actually hope for her son to be declared dead so she could inherit his estate.
She couldn’t find anyone else in the world who reached such a level of shamelessness.
After taking one look at Ms. Thompson, she no longer wasted words on her and left with Helen Melendy.
Ms. Thompson was not willing to let Elly Campbell go just like that; with hundreds of billions in inheritance about to slip through her fingers, how could she accept that.
When Elly Campbell was leaving, she chased after her, "Elly Campbell, stop, clarify what you mean that Adam gave all the shares to you! Don’t bluff here; Adam is missing now, how could he possibly transfer all the shares to you? You must be taking advantage of Adam’s absence to scheme for his inheritance."
When Elly Campbell heard the words "inheritance", the warmth in her eyes completely disappeared.
So, her agitation was because she felt she couldn’t inherit her son’s fortune?
