Old Reynold died. In his suicide note, he admitted that he hired gunmen to kill four boundary commissioners. Before his death, he apologized to all the people he had hurt and to all the citizens of Donghai.
…
There was a circle of people sitting in the inner hall of Wendebao Club 388 Premium Member Room.
Mainly members of the Renault family, including the current Mr. and Mrs. Renault, Mr. Renault's sister, two sisters, brother-in-law and brother-in-law.
In addition, there is also Schaeffer, the probate lawyer of the deceased old Renault.
Lu Ming was sitting in the corner. He didn't know why Old Renault had to be present when his will was announced.
This lawyer named Xia Fu has a very good temper. He called me to make an appointment and said that he would announce the will of old Renault. Since he was involved, he hoped that he would be present.
He said he was not free, but Xia Fu was surprisingly good-natured and said, "Let's go to Wendebao Club."
Just like that, this large group of people came to Wendebao.
In fact, if you think about it, the suicide note left by old Renaud when he committed suicide admitted that he was the mastermind behind the assassination of the Border Commissioner, which must have gone against the wishes of the Baclow family.
If old Renault had simply committed suicide and there was no evidence of his death, the case would actually be a little vague.
Shelf was a die-hard, and even though he was arrested, he never said a word when asked any questions.
Although the gunman was caught off guard in Raccoon City and was captured alive, at the train station, he suddenly jumped off the tracks and was crushed to death by a speeding train. Originally, he had been injected with drugs and should have been completely weak.
But I didn’t expect that he was indeed a ruthless character who could jump on the railway track with his last breath.
However, the man named Gao Ping caught near the 97 power supply station has confessed to pretending to be Lao Niu and receiving telegrams from Lao Niu's family.
Moreover, the person who sent money to Lao Yao's family was also arrested.
Based on their confessions, Lao Catfish's innocence was cleared. What's more, Lao Catfish was not dead in the first place.
If Lao Niu is innocent, then the attack on the five border committee members cannot be said to be related to him based on the current evidence.
However, why they were attacked has become an open case, at least as far as the evidence can be brought to court.
Eavesdropped recordings are difficult to establish as irrefutable evidence.
In his suicide note, old Renault admitted that he planned the case, which really made the case come to light.
This is definitely something the Bucklow family doesn't want to see.
At least, if the case has not been truly concluded, it will be difficult for him to come forward to participate in social activities. For the time being, he still needs to stay in seclusion to avoid becoming a hot topic.
From this perspective, the old Renault, more or less, did himself a favor, although it was not necessary.
Now, Xia Fu repeatedly asked himself to attend the will announcement meeting. With full sincerity, he and Renault's family came to Wendebao.
I just followed the trend and was actually quite curious as to how Old Renault arranged his will.
In fact, Groupe Renault is already half-dead and may go bankrupt in a few months.
Now the death of old Renault has also interrupted some of his plans, which is not necessarily a bad thing for the Renault Group.
Picking up the tea cup and taking a sip of the tea, Lu Ming thought again, in fact, in the phone recording, Shelver accidentally mentioned Barcolo once.
However, it is indeed difficult to explain anything. After all, Mr. Bucklow is not a name that is too lonely.
In court, there are even more things to do.
Maybe now, even though Bucklo feels it's not worth it, the matter has come to an end.
But for me, everything has just begun.
After Renault's suicide note was released, he had already said hello to Cheng Lingyu and asked for Yang Guiren's suicide case, and would conduct a thorough investigation into the case.
Of course, everything is kept secret.
Even his own government office took over a dozen old cases from the Grand Prosecutor's Office, all of which have not yet been solved.
As if he had become interested in difficult cases, the recent work arrangement of Commissioner Lu Qianxing's office was to re-investigate some vicious cases that had not been solved before.
But what he was really staring at was the Yang Guiren suicide case.
"Mr. Lu Qianxing, please, are you listening?"
Xia Fu is extremely polite and gentle, and his face is harmless to humans and animals. One look at him will make you lose your temper.
"Listening!" Lu Ming nodded.
"Okay, now, I read the will of Baron Hebrew Reno, which was written by Baron Hebrew Reno, and is kept by the Schaaf Law Firm as the supervisor of the execution of the will."
"Baron Hebrew Reno distributed his property during his lifetime as follows: The mansion on Lydon Road in the West End was inherited by his eldest daughter Frieda Reno." After a pause, Scharf looked at Frieda, "Miss Frieda.
, Mr. Renault asked me to tell you something. When he was alive, you didn't have much time to go home to visit him. Thinking about it now, you regret it very much. Now, leaving the mansion to you will make you miss his voice and smile all the time."
Frieda was one year older than Saquireno and was a middle-aged lady. Her face was livid at this time and she was silent.
Xia Fu continued to read out the will. What he left to his second daughter was part of bank deposits, stocks and several properties. Obviously, it was much more affordable than what he left to his eldest daughter. The husband of the second daughter secretly shook his fist and was a little excited.
.
"And my most beloved little daughter Jennifer, my little Jennifer, you agreed to my father's most shameless request. My father now asks for your forgiveness. I love you, and my father will always love you. What I leave to you is
The Starlight Mall under my private name, and all my real estate, including in the Imperial Capital, the ancestral land of our Renault family. Oh, you can sell the real estate for cash, but the ancestral land must be kept, my little Jennifer, my father loves
you!"
"I don't believe it!" Frieda stood up suddenly, "I don't believe my father is so partial!"
If we say that all the group's shares must be left to Shaquille Leno, the heir chosen by his father, the distribution of the rest of the property is too unfair!
Frieda's husband Johnson looked like a playboy at first glance. He was dressed very fashionably in a fancy shirt and trousers. At this time, he also stood up and said angrily: "We want to verify whether it is Mr. Lei Luo's handwriting!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Xia Fu looked at Frieda and smiled: "Miss, do you think so too?"
Frieda frowned and glared at Johnson. Obviously, she was extremely wary of Xia Fu. She shook her head: "I just think my father is too partial!"
Xia Fu nodded: "Just now, Mr. Reno, as a father, said to Miss Jennifer. Next, there is the official content of the inheritance that Miss Jennifer received. The list is as follows..."
He began to read.
Frieda's face became more and more ugly, and she stared at her little sister more viciously.
Lu Ming shook his head and looked at Jennifer, who had always wiped away tears. This was Renault's youngest daughter. She should be a few years younger than little Renault. She looked about fifteen or sixteen, and she looked like she had received a good aristocratic education. She had a snow-white gauze.
The dress is pure and beautiful, with lace white stockings and small black leather sandals with pearl heels. She looks extremely gentle and timid. Now she is tearful, with long chocolate-colored hair, deep light blue eyes, and delicate facial features. She looks like that
The weak little white rabbit type is crying like a man in tears now.
Listening to the content of the will, it turns out that the inheritance that old Renault allocated to her was quite a lot, including more than a dozen properties.
As for the Starlight Mall left for her, it is much larger than Liu Laocai's New Era. It is located in Xinfa District in the city and is one of the most luxurious shopping malls in Xinfa District.
"The following is about the inheritance and distribution of Renault Group shares."
Everyone immediately pricked up their ears, including Frieda, the eldest lady. She knew there was no hope, but she still held the thought of "What if my father gets old and confused?" Or, "What if my father loves me very much?"
I hope I can hear my name.
"The old Baron Renault has recently sold off most of the shares he held in other companies and repurchased the shares of the Renault Group. Today, the old Baron Renault holds 59.31% of the shares of the Renault Group.
.”
"Among them, 29.31% of the shares were donated free of charge by the old Baron Renault to Mr. Lu Qianxing..."
Before he finished speaking, the eldest daughter Frieda, her husband Johnson, and the second daughter and his wife all jumped up, "This is impossible, the will must be fake!"
"Shaquet! You are deaf, why don't you speak!" Frieda looked at her brother angrily.
Shaquireno was expressionless, "I was present when my father changed his will. My father also told me personally about these changes."
"What?!" Frieda was stunned.
"Eldest Miss, Second Miss, please wait until I finish reading the will. If you have any objections, you can raise them later."
Xia Fu said calmly, paying no attention to the two sons-in-law.
Frieda and her sister looked at each other, winked at their husband, and sat down angrily.
Xia Fu continued to read, and the general meaning was that the remaining 30% of the shares were owned by Shaquireno.
In addition to the 5% stake originally held by Shaquille Renault, Groupe Renault and Shaquille Renault hold a total of 35% of the shares.
However, the old Renault demanded that all the voting rights for the shares held by Shaquille Renault should also be given to Lu Qianxing.
Such a request in the will has no legal effect. Old Reno asked Shaquireno, son, you promised me, right?
When Xia Fu read this, Shaquireno burst into tears, "Yes, father, yes! I promise you, I promise you!"
Next, there was the handling of some scattered property and affairs. Xiafu read for more than ten minutes.
"Okay, I have finished reading the will, please read it over!" Xia Fu first handed the text of the will to Frieda, "Miss, please read it over!"
Frieda gritted her teeth and stared at the will, looking like she wanted to tear it up right now.
Lu Ming, who was sitting blankly, suddenly stood up and said, "Pull him down! Do you want me to work for your family? Are you crazy? What a beautiful idea!"
He raised his head and said, "Old Renault, you are really crazy. Death is a big deal. I don't care about your sins, but you want me to work for your Renault family? You didn't defeat me in life, but you are laughing after death!"
You are too shady!"
Everyone in the Renault family, including Xia Fu, also looked at this scene in surprise. They never expected that Mr. Lu, who suddenly obtained a third of the Renault Group and would become the future helmsman, would
This is the reaction.
"I don't want it, Lawyer Scharf, right? I don't want these shares. Well, if I have to go through the gift procedures, then you can do it for me, and then donate them all to Shaquilleno immediately! You have to pay taxes.
It has nothing to do with me, it’s up to you!"
Xia Fu smiled bitterly: "Mr. Lu, please be patient. Old Mr. Renault, there are some arrangements that I haven't mentioned yet."
Lu Ming waved his hand: "Needless to say, what is the current situation of the Renault Group? You should know how many problems it will face next? If I start from the outside and take advantage of the present, it will not be difficult at all to bring about the collapse of the Renault Group. However, I think,
That's enough. I hope the grudges between me and the Renault family can be wiped out. Therefore, whether the Renault Group lives or dies from now on has nothing to do with me. If I don't add insult to injury, I can already be considered worthy of your Renault family!"
Frieda and his wife, as well as their second daughter, did not know who this Central-Continent man was at first, but they knew that he was a quite famous lawyer.
But after hearing what he said, and seeing that neither Shaquireno nor Xia Fu raised any objections, Shaquireno looked even more frustrated, and even looked at the man with a little flinch.
Frieda and others looked at each other, who is this guy? It seems that he can decide the life or death of his family group? No way, right?
When Frieda and others looked at Lu Ming, their eyes immediately changed.
Jennifer looked at Lu Ming with tears in her eyes and wiped the tears from her eyes with her hands.
"Mr. Lu, old Sir Renault, he also wants me to tell you a few words. He said that he does not expect you to run the Renault Group as your own company. He only hopes that it can be used as one of your small holding companies.
, with your protection, especially Reno Pictures, he hopes to survive."
"Moreover, Renault Pictures has a lot of resources that you also need. They can be used as a useful supplement to your Nadu Pictures. By joining forces, with your intelligence and talent, old Sir Renault said, within a few years, the empire will be the largest in the world."
Our film industry group must be led by you, Mr. Lu."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Lu Ming was helpless, thinking that after old Renault died, he spoke so beautifully.
But think about it, what Old Renault said makes sense.
Being at the helm of Groupe Renault by myself will indeed be a help to me at this stage as long as we can overcome the current difficulties.
Moreover, the feud with the Renault family has turned into an endless feud. It should be said that there are many Western aristocrats who are afraid of sympathizing with the old Renault and dying.
Old Reynold's suicide is not a plus to his reputation.
It would be more interesting to see such a big reversal if he suddenly became in charge of the Renault Group and it was the will of the old Renault.
At least, it won't be a bad thing for yourself.
Just as he was thinking about it, Xia Fu said over there: "Now, please let Mr. Lu Qianxing, Mr. Shaquireno, and Miss Jennifer Reno stay. The others will stay away for the time being. The next arrangements for Sir Reno are only related to the three of them."
Catherine got up first, but looking confused, she obviously didn't know what her father-in-law had arranged before his death.
Frieda and others had no choice but to get up. They were still in shock. It was such a big change and they had to go back and think about what to do next.
In fact, they also know that the inheritance of Renault Group shares has nothing to do with them in the first place, but now that it is given to an outsider as a gift, it may be a good thing. Find a lawyer to see if it is possible to question whether the will is fake or invalid.
, to file a lawsuit.
In the small hall, four people, Xia Fu, Shaquireno, Lu Ming and Jennifer, were soon left.
"Mr. Lu, you can consider the gift of shares slowly..."
Xia Fu, took out another document.
At this time, the sofa next to Lu Ming moved slightly, and he turned around, but it was Jennifer who walked over cautiously and gently sat next to him. With her small white lace gloved hands, she gently pinched the corners of her clothes, with tears in her eyes.
"Sir, please agree to my father's request. Please..."
This beautiful and quiet aristocratic girl looked at her timidly, her little face full of pleading.
Elegant white gauze dress, lace white socks and small leather shoes, beautiful long chocolate hair covered by a small silver aristocratic hat, a pretty face looking at herself sincerely, with tears in her eyes.
Lu Ming was speechless. What was he doing?
Over there, Xia Fu continued: "Mr. Lu, you can slowly consider the gift of shares. Sir Renault, there are other arrangements." After a pause, he coughed and said, "Sir Renault, would you like to marry Miss Jennifer?"
I will be your concubine. According to the customs of the Middle-earth people, the inheritance Miss Jennifer will receive will be her dowry. Miss Jennifer is fifteen years old this year, so I will be your fifteenth concubine! Miss Jennifer,
I already promised Sir Renaud before he died."
"Miss Jennifer, will you regret it now? You can refuse." Xia Fu looked at Jennifer, with faint sympathy and regret in his eyes.
Jennifer shook her head slightly and whispered: "I, I will not regret it." There was a hint of firmness in her tone.
Lu Ming was stunned for a long time.
Understand what old Renault is doing, he is simply like an ancient emperor, abandoning his daughter in exchange for the peace of the empire.
And old Renault hopes to use his daughter in exchange for his support and care for his son.
However, he obviously knows little about the customs of the people in Central China. He believes that the order of concubines represents status. Therefore, he uses the fifteenth concubine to reassure himself, telling himself that his daughter will never compete for favors after marrying him.
Yes, she will listen to herself and do her duty as the lowest-status concubine.
Old Renault did an amazing job.
No wonder this little Jennifer's eyes were different when she first saw her. Maybe she had the consciousness of feeding a tiger with her own body.
"It's a bit ridiculous!" Lu Ming stood up, "The first half of the will involves me, I will think about it carefully, and treat what you are telling me now as if I haven't heard it, and don't mention it a second time in the future."
"Okay, I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave!" Lu Ming nodded to the Shakui brothers and sisters, turned around and walked out.
Little Jennifer hesitated, stood up, and followed out.
…
In the outer hall, looking at Jennifer who was timidly grabbing the corner of her clothes, Lu Ming had no choice but to say, "Go and be your young lady. I understand what your father means. Where your brother is, I will take care of him."
Shaking his head, Lu Ming turned around and walked away. Behind him, little Jennifer was like a little tail, grabbing a little bit of his clothes and following behind him.
Lu Ming frowned and turned around, but he saw that her eyes were full of tears. Obviously, this was her first experience. She was embarrassed and embarrassed, and it was not what a noble lady should do, but she didn't care.
"I promised my father, I promised him, before he went to heaven, I promised him..." Little Jennifer murmured, tears slowly sliding down her face, but soon, she wiped away the tears and tried not to
He choked out a sound and didn't say anything. He just grabbed a small piece of Lu Ming's clothes.
