nChapter 659: Chapter 655: The Rotten Descendants of the Lewis Family
nAlexander Lewis was one of the most trusted among the old master’s grandchildren, besides Roy Lewis’s immediate family.
nHowever, even he was discarded by the old master himself.
nAldo Lewis and the others got this feeling, as if the end of the world was near.
n“Alexander, did the old man really say he will revoke your share inheritance rights? Is this news fake?”
nAfter Alexander left the Lewis’s old house, he went to discuss the strategy with Aldo Lewis and Victoria Lewis.
nWhen he explained the full story, the first thing Aldo asked about were the shares.
n“Uncle Aldo, you’re his children. Don’t you know our grandfather’s temperament better than I do?”
n“Isn’t that when he was young? Now that he’s old, he may have become soft. As long as the will is not announced, who knows how he will distribute it?”
nAldo comforted Alexander with these words, but in his heart, he didn’t feel any sympathy for Alexander.
nHe was calculating his own plans.
nBecause my older brothers committed a crime, the old man immediately announced the revocation of their inheritance rights.
nNow add Alexander to that, which means the shares that these three people were supposed to inherit will be redistributed among the rest of us with inheritance rights.
nThis would add up to a good fortune.
nLittle did Aldo know, the wrongdoings of these three people were all directed at Richelle Dunn.
nTherefore, the inheritance rights they all lost were actually transferred to Richelle by default.
nApart from Alexander’s share, which Roy and Richelle barely knew about, they never expected that the shares from James Lewis and Sebastian Lewis, would also be intended to be given to Richelle.
nHowever, their ignorance was a blessing in disguise.
nThat way, they could at least save face in front of the old man.
nIf they knew his intentions, who knows what kind of chaos they would cause.
n“Uncle Aldo, Aunt Victoria, my father is not here now, you must help me plead my case to grandfather this time!”
nAlexander hated Richelle deeply, but in his heart, he still held out some hope.
nHowever, neither Aldo nor Victoria intended to plead for him.
nHe had to steel himself, “Uncle Aldo, Aunt Victoria, we initially agreed that we would split the money when we got it. But now without any money and such a mess, we should bear the responsibility together. Look at me now, I’ve lost my job and rights to my inheritance. What will I do in the future?”
nIn their eyes, Roy had been tightening his grip on power these past years.
nYet, the old man was still biased towards him.
nAlthough they were Roy’s seniors, they had neither money nor power in the Lewis Group.
nOnly Alexander, whom Roy seemed to favor, was put in charge of the subsidiary responsible for manufacturing in the suburbs a few years ago.
nOver these years, Alexander did achieve quite a lot.
nTherefore, in the eyes of the old man and Roy, Alexander could still be trusted with serious responsibilities.
nHowever, Alexander had no knowledge of the old man and Roy’s plans.
nAfter his father Sebastian ran into trouble, he became somewhat flustered.
nLater, egged on by Aldo and his sisters, he thought of causing trouble for Richelle during the unstable period following Roy’s “death”. They planned to make some money, then set a trap for Richelle, aiming to topple her from the presidency of the Lewis Group all at once.
nBut for some reason, their cunning plan failed to work with the old man.
n“Alexander, we can’t rush this. Even if we want to help you, we must wait for the old man’s anger to calm down,” Victoria echoed.
n“Right, what Uncle Aldo said is correct. Going now would be like running into the guns. Not only we wouldn’t help you, but we’d also be adding firewood to the fire.”
nAlexander hadn’t even imagined his uncle and aunt, to begin with, had no intention of helping him at all.
n“Hehe, now you’re hoping, the old man won’t forgive me, right? Waiting for his anger to die down, you’re waiting, to equally split my share?”
nAldo was taken aback when his thoughts were exposed.
n“What are you talking nonsense, Alexander? We intended to help you, but the help cannot be blind, right?”
nAlexander was somewhat skeptical.
nAfter some thought, he suddenly asked Aldo.
n“Uncle Aldo, have you ever thought that the shares allocated to us by the old man, compared to those that Richelle got from that dead bastard, Roy, are nothing!”
nAldo nodded somewhat helplessly, “Of course, I know. But what can we do? Those were originally Roy’s. If he doesn’t pass them to Richelle, it would go to his three illegitimate children. It’s none of our business.”
nAlexander clicked his tongue, “Uncle Aldo, under normal circumstances, of course, but under special circumstances, things might look different!”
nAldo looked confused, “What special circumstances? The protection that the old man set up for those brats is so strong that even a mosquito couldn’t get through. What can we do?”
nAlexander looked thoughtful, “There’s always a solution. If we think a little deeper, we might find a way!”
