“The Riddle family had never chosen their heir or heiress based on seniority, but ability. So, the most
capable person will naturally be the heir of this family.” Mr. Riddle Sr. swept his gaze across everyone
there sternly before he looked at Nicole.
Of course, deep down, he knew very well that Nicole was the most capable and qualified person to
inherit the family’s wealth. However, he also knew that it was not the right time to say that out loud.
Nicole thought about it and realized that the Riddle family had a rule like that instead of always letting
the eldest person be the heir. After a moment of thinking, Nicole’s face still looked very indifferent as if
that had nothing to do with her at all.
She genuinely thought so because if the inheritance was based on capabilities, she felt like her eldest
brother would be the most suitable candidate. After all, she was going to get married sooner or later
and she would have more responsibilities and concerns in the future.
After looking at Nicole’s reaction, Mr. Riddle Sr. felt even more satisfied, and it strengthened his
decision even more. The others’ eyes sparkled like a wolf eyeing its prey. Nicole was the only calm
one, exuding an air of a leader and the attitude of the head of a family.
Nicole had no idea that her grandfather had already started to treat her as his heir. She simply felt like
this matter had nothing to do with them and she did not want to look at those greedy faces anymore.
So, she looked at Daniel and Gloria. “Dad, Mom, we’re heading back now. What about you?” she
asked.
“Oh, we’re going back now too,” the couple said, reading between the lines.
“Grandpa, we’ll leave now. It looks like today’s not a good day to visit you. Well come here again some
other day.” Nicole stood up and said goodbye.
Daniel and Gloria followed suit. Then, Dexter and Emma did the same, having no interest to stay there
any longer.
After they left, Mr. Riddle Sr. looked at his two sons that were still there, wearing an unpleasant
expression.
“Dad, we also think that it’d be better for us to divide our family’s wealth in advance since Nicole had
gone missing for five years and she knows nothing about San Joto after coming back here all of a
sudden. If anything were to happen to the company, we can offer some help. It’ll be better than all of us
getting into trouble together,” Karen explained with a smile. She was worried that Mr. Riddle Sr. would
put the blame on them on that matter.
She had no idea the Riddle family had a rule like that. If she had known earlier, she would not have
convinced everyone to come here and force Mr. Riddle Sr. to give up his throne and put herself in such
a passive position.
“Now that the company has been divided, just focus on
doing your own part. Don’t think about helping. It’d be good enough if you don’t cause any trouble.” Mr.
Riddle Sr. was implying that they should just mind their own business since their own companies were
not even doing well.
Karen’s face turned pale after hearing that, but she dared not retort. So, she lowered her head and
replied softly, “Okay. "
“Leave now if you have nothing else to say. Stop bothering me.” Mr. Riddle Sr. was starting to get
impatient with them.
“Well leave now then. Take care, Dad,” Damien said to his father.
Mr. Riddle Sr. scoffed. “There’s no need to worry about me. I’m perfectly healthy.”
Damien paused, feeling somewhat helpless. He could not figure out why his father still hated them after
he did everything that the doctor said.
“Come on, let’s go. Dad needs to rest,” Dillon chimed in to smooth things out.
After everyone left, the butler handed Mr. Riddle Sr. a cup of hot tea. “Sir, have some tea to calm your
mind.”
“What a bunch of unfilial children,” Mr. Riddle Sr. grumbled as he took a sip of tea.
“At least two of your youngest sons are good. Besides, Miss Nicole has already met all your
expectations. It’s not worth getting angry over these things and compromising your health,” the butler
consoled Mr. Riddle Sr.
“Daniel and his family are the least I have to worry about.” Mr. Riddle Sr. looked more relaxed, his eyes
revealing a sense of affection as soon as he thought about Daniel and especially Nicole.
“Sir, I suppose you’re going to make Miss Nicole your heir, right?” the butler said with a hint of teasing
in his tone as he already knew what Mr. Riddle Sr. had in mind.
