Old Mrs. Norman sniffed, her wrinkled face filled with a happy smile.
Li Muxin looked at the old Mrs. Norman for a moment, feeling uneasy and not understanding what her smile meant.
Old Mrs. Norman walked up to Li Muxin step by step, looked at her delicate face with phoenix eyes, and said, "Who said... I'm going to break you up?"
The old lady glanced coldly at the Norman Duchess behind her. The Duchess suddenly fell silent and hid behind Duke Norman. Due to his physical weakness, Duke Norman could not open his mouth to speak from beginning to end, but his eyes were equally bright.
Looking at Li Muxin, a weak but happy smile appeared on his pale face.
Li Muxin opened her eyes wide and looked at the old Mrs. Norman. Although what she just said was full of anger, the old lady looked at him so kindly now, which made her feel a little timid.
The old lady turned around, pondered for a moment, and finally made the final decision, "Now, I announce to everyone here that the new heir of the Norman family is Daniel, who is on my right hand! And I am very sorry to say this.
Announcing that Daniel and Cheryl’s engagement is cancelled!”
Suddenly, there was thunderous applause!
It was like winning a difficult battle. Some people were congratulated, but... others were displeased.
For example, the people in the second room, and...Catherine.
After the applause subsided, everyone turned their attention to Han Shilin. After taking over the seal symbolizing the supreme power of the Norman family, Han Shilin returned to Li Muxin.
When everyone was happy for Han Shilin, his words made the atmosphere awkward again.
He walked up to Catherine, handed the seal to her, and said, "Everyone, I'm sorry, I don't think I have enough qualifications and abilities to be the heir of the Norman family, because I think my sister Catherine is more suitable than me.
, so I decided to transfer this seal to her."
There was a sigh of relief in the auditorium.
The old lady Norman's expression suddenly changed, and even the Duchess of Normandy covered her mouth in surprise.
"Daniel, how can you just give in to the matter of the heir? It's unreasonable for me to value you so much, you are such a childish person!"
Old Mrs. Norman was so angry that she almost fainted and pointed at Han Shilin with trembling fingers.
Han Shilin immediately stepped forward and supported the old lady, "Grandma, please don't be angry. Listen to me."
After helping the old lady to her seat, Han Shilin slowly said, "I know that everyone must not understand the reason why I did this. How many people dream of being the heir to the Norman family. Maybe in the past, I would have done whatever it takes to get it.
, to prove my ability, but since I met my wife, I have changed."
Li Muxin looked at Han Shilin and smiled shyly.
Is my charm really that great?
"One more right, one more burden. I am very satisfied with my current life. Too much fame and power will make my life lose freedom. I already have a career of my own, and I can do it without any worries."
It is an exaggeration to say that the wealth I have will never be spent in this lifetime, so why should I strive for another burden?
Some people may say that I am not motivated enough, but I just want to say that my wife taught me to be content with what I have."
After saying that, Han Shilin lowered his head, kissed Li Muxin on the cheek, and then said, "Since I have no ambitions, it is better to hand over the inheritance to a more suitable person. I remember that the family rules of the Norman family mentioned that the heir has the highest rights. Of course
It should also include the right to transfer, right?"
"But Catherine is a woman!" the second-bedroom man retorted.
"Can't women?" Li Muxin replied quickly.
Mrs. Norman once again turned her attention to Li Muxin. Li Muxin walked up to everyone and said, "This world is no longer a man's world. Women also have the right to fight for what they want. A female president can have it. Why can't the Norman family
What about an heiress?
I don’t know what Catherine’s abilities are, but I believe in my husband’s vision. If he says Catherine can do it, she will definitely do it!”
Silence...
Although the people in the second room wanted to refute, they knew that Charles was actually not as capable as Catherine. Catherine not only graduated from a prestigious university, but also had a double master's degree. In terms of appearance, temperament, social skills and other aspects, she was better than Charles.
A rich man with nothing to do is a hundred times better off. It can be said that if Catherine had not been a woman, the inheritance rights would definitely fall into her pocket.
Mrs. Norman's serious face and solemn atmosphere made everyone in the auditorium hold their breath.
Her sharp eyes were fixed on Catherine, and she saw that Catherine was holding the seal in her hand. She neither accepted it nor wanted to return it, and asked, "Catherine, grandma wants to hear your thoughts?"
Catherine stepped forward and said to the old Mrs. Norman, "Grandma, do you want to hear my true words?"
"Yes." Old Mrs. Norman nodded, "Just say whatever you think in your heart."
Catherine took a deep breath and said, "Yes, grandma, I very much hope to get the inheritance rights of the Norman family."
Admitting without any hesitation, with a confident light shining in her deep blue eyes, Catherine stepped forward with the seal in hand and presented it to Mrs. Norman, "Grandma, although I really hope to be the heir of the family, but
It’s all up to you.”
After that, Catherine handed the seal back to Mrs. Norman.
The old lady didn't speak and her face didn't look very good.
She didn't say anything, and she didn't let anyone in the family help her. She only let the old housekeeper who had been with her for decades help her get up, and then left angrily.
Li Muxin nestled in Han Shilin's arms and looked at him worriedly, "Shilin, what about the heir...?"
