The Villain's Wife Chapter 587 Clauses

The Villain's Wife 587 ClausesA few hours after the old man visited Zhou Jingren, the news about his death started to spread on the business industry. It was tragic and very dark as some people claimed that the old man took his own life. The media instantly stormed the Yu Family's estate.

How could the old man just die a few days after his wife? Theories and conspiracy theories instantly flooded the Internet. Did he take his own life because of sadness? Was it because of his wife's death?
Isn't this genuine love?
However, another part of the internet claimed that the old man died not because of despair but because he was murdered. People claiming that they heard a gunshot outside of the property suddenly made posts about this matter online.
What could have happened?
Of course, the Yu Family did not confirm nor deny this matter. However, both Lily and Zhou Jingren knew the truth. The old man already told him his plan after his wife's death and true to his words he did commit suicide.
"I knew it! She killed our father! She must have been threatening him!" Yu Yanwan paced inside her second brother's office. "Are we just going to believe that he killed himself on his own accord?" She stopped pacing and turned towards his brother. "I think we should do something about this."
"Yanwan… no offense, but what you are saying right now does not make any sense." Yu Tingye uttered. "I think we should… focus on father's funeral before making such assumptions."
"Can you stop being a coward for once?"
"Waiting is not being a coward. You can't just spout nonsense like this without any evidence! Are you trying to drag everyone in trouble with you?"
"Father went to Zhou Jingren's office before his death! Isn't that proof enough that they threatened him?"
A sigh escaped Yu Tingye's lips. "Father is a businessman. It is natural for him to visit a bank to fix his finances."
"You are making excuses for Zhou Jingren!" Yu Yanwan hissed. This is why he hated her brother's so much. They lack the guts that she possessed and get easily scared by someone more influential than them. "You keep on making excuses for everyone's action." Yu Yanwan started pacing again.
In the past few days, Yu Yanwan lost a lot of weight as she could not stop thinking about her father's will. She wanted to talk to him about it again, but her husband keeps on saying that this will make her look bad in front of the media. After all, her mother just died.
Discussing such matters in times of grief is not very good for her image. While Yu Yanwan did not care about her image, she cares about her husband's reputation. After all, he is trying his best to start his own business. She could not just throw his hard work into the bin.
But, who would have thought that Old Man Yu would suddenly take his own life? Yu Yanwan felt betrayed. She felt blindsided. Now it will be too late for her to try to change that will.
The more infuriating thing about this matter is their lawyer's refusal to tell her about the will. The lawyer insisted that a reading is not necessary as requested by the old man. She is clueless about the will and inheritance.
And this… this had taken its toll on her mind. She cannot sleep nor eat and had been drinking coffee just to keep herself up. Her anxiety is killing her. "I am convinced that they have something to do about his death." She stated, her hands balled into a fist. "We need to do something about it."
"I don't think that is…" his words were interrupted when a man in a suit walked inside his office and introduced himself as one of the lawyers tasked by the old man to deliver a letter to his children.
Both Yu Yanwan and Yu Tingye froze as they eyed the letters that the man just gave them. However, Yu Yanwan recovered quickly. She instantly tore the letter open and read its contents.
Slowly, her already scowling face turned uglier. Her breathing quickened as she eyed her brother's calm expression. "Five percent? He left us… two percent of his money?" she uttered, disbelief laced her tone. "How much did he…" she leaned and down grabbed the letter in her brother's hands.
Then her eyes widened. "Twenty percent?" Her gaze shifted towards the lawyer standing next to them. "What do you mean by this?" Yu Yanwan could not believe her eyes. Is the old man mocking her? "What about the shares? What about the properties?"
"Miss Yu… please calm down." Unfazed, the lawyer took another document and handed it to Yu Tingye. "This one stated that each of his sons will have one property abroad and… all of his properties in mainland China and Hongkong will be given to Miss Lily Facci- Zhou. This document is signed by the old man. There are also witnesses that— "
"What?" Yu Yanwan snatched the paper and read it. She felt her eyes almost popped out of their sockets as she read the contents of the document. She trembled and eyed her brother, then the lawyer. "What does this mean?"
"Miss Yu, this means that if you decide to contest the will, we will file a case against you and your husband for murder and voluntary manslaughter for poisoning and killing your mother." The lawyer said. "The document is very straightforward. Not just you, but everyone in your family will lose all the privileges that the Old Man Yu and Madam Lu gave to your family. This includes all the memberships that you and your husband have. The villa in New Zealand as well as your husband's current investors."
"Wha — That is not possible." Yu Yanwan took a step back. Disbelief flashing in her eyes. "That is not possible!"
"Old Man Yu already knew that you will say this. So he added that any misconduct will also make you lose all your inheritance. Misconducts include cursing, questioning the will, calling the lawyers and your brother's dirty names, throwing tantrums, and everything that would threaten to ruin the Yu Family's name and reputation." The lawyer sneered, disgust clear in his face. "Do you have any other questions? Miss Yu?" he asked.
