88 The Will
Once Yu Han said this, Wu Wei realized that something was wrong. “Don’t you know?”
Yu Han shook her head. “I never knew that my mother left anything for me. My father never told me about that either.”
Wu Wei slammed the table with her chopsticks and said angrily, “Alright, Yu Tian that bastard. Did he take everything?”
Her heart ached as she held Yu Han’s hand. “It’s all my fault. I’ve been busy overseas and didn’t have time to visit you. I thought that no matter what, he’s still your father and wouldn’t mistreat you.”
In the end, she did not expect that Yu Tian would be so greedy that he took the inheritance that Chen Meng left for his daughter. He must not value his daughter very much in his heart. She did not know what kind of life Yu Han had been living and how much she had suffered in the past few years.
“It’s been hard on you all these years.” Wu Wei’s eyes were red.
Yu Han smiled and did not say anything like “I’m fine” or “It’s alright” to comfort her. As these were all the hardships that the original host had experienced, Yu Han, who came later, did not have the right to say that it was alright on behalf of the original host. She could only change the topic and say, “Auntie, what did my mother leave for me?”
Speaking of this, Wu Wei gritted her teeth. “Your father was still a poor boy at that time. After he got together with your mother, the two of them started a business together with your mother’s financial resources. Not only is your mother an extremely talented painter, but she’s also very talented in business. Hence, the company quickly prospered and developed better and better.”
“Because your mother used her money and worked hard, your mother took 60% of the company’s shares and your father took 40%. However, in order to let your father have enough say and prestige in the company, your mother took out 20% of her shares and handed them to your father to hold on her behalf.”
Chen Meng really loved Yu Tian very much at that time. She loved him so much that she sacrificed everything in order to help Yu Tian make a name for himself. When Yu Tian finally made a name for himself, she collapsed and then realized that she had married an inhumane man. However, it was already too late then.
“Before your mother left, she made a will and left 60% of the company’s shares to you. You can inherit them when you’re 18 years old.”
Yu Han was curious. “Then my father actually agreed?”
With Yu Tian’s extremely selfish and headstrong personality, it was difficult to believe that he would give in.
Chen Meng pursed her lips. “Your father’s first reaction was definitely not to agree. However, I don’t know what your mother talked to him about, so he agreed.”
Yu Han thought that Chen Meng probably had something on Yu Tian at that time, forcing him to take a step back.
“In addition, your mother also collected many expensive famous paintings and some jewelry. At that time, their market value was estimated to be more than 300 million yuan. She left them all to you.”
Yu Han did a rough calculation in her heart. 60% of the Yu Family’s company’s shares and 300 million yuan of real estate added up to more than 1 billion yuan. This amount of money could indeed ensure that the original host would not have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of her life. Unfortunately, she chose to get close to the group of wolves in the Yu Family and sent herself to be slaughtered. In the end, she ended up in a tragic state.
Thinking of the ending in the book, the anger in Yu Han’s heart almost made her break the chopsticks in her hands.
“I don’t remember much about the other things, but Lawyer Ye drafted the will for your mother at that time. Thus, if there’s a need, I can help you make an appointment with Lawyer Ye and get everything back for you.”
“Great, Auntie. Please help me make an appointment with Lawyer Ye.” Yu Han had to find the financial list involved in the will. She could not let the Yu Family have any of her inheritance.
Wu Wei was especially efficient. She immediately took out her phone and called Lawyer Ye on the spot when she heard that Yu Han agreed.
Coincidentally, Lawyer Ye was still working overtime in the law firm, so he pulled out the will document from back then and sent it over. “I was just thinking that the beneficiary was already 18 years old and should be coming to sign the handover procedures.”
However, the original book did not mention this matter. She thought that the original host might have been secretly coaxed into signing some waiver agreement. Fortunately, according to Lawyer Ye, she should not have signed it yet, so there was still time.
Because of this, the dinner tonight could not continue happily. Yu Han stood up and bowed to the two elders. “I’m sorry. It was supposed to be a happy banquet, but I spoiled the atmosphere for the two of you.”
