In the dark night, there was a hint of sandalwood fragrance in Edmund's room, and an ancient atmosphere filled the whole room. Qi Tian used the dim night to stare closely at the old man lying on the bed, and the old man's heart was
His dancing was very weak, and his body's organs were all failing. It seemed like it was only a matter of time before the old man died.
After Qi Tian entered Edmond's room, he did not rush to wake up the old man who had beaten him to death. Instead, he gently sat down beside his bed, and then luck slowly passed some of his inner energy to him.
"Hmm..." Edmond hummed softly after a long time, and then slowly opened his sleepy eyes. When he opened his eyes and saw a dark figure sitting next to the bed, he was obviously startled.
His hands tightened and he immediately reached under the pillow.
"Old sir, don't be nervous, it's me!" Qi Tian did not let go of his hand, but continued to help the old man slowly regain his strength.
"Who are you?" Edmund still hadn't recognized the person in front of him.
"Qitian!"
"Qi Tian? Mr. Qi?" Edmond sat up in disbelief.
"Well, let me help you!" Qi Tian slowly helped Edmond sit up, and then turned on the bedside light.
"Is it really you? How did you come to the United States? Why are you in my room?" After Edmond saw Qi Tian's face clearly, he felt very incredible.
"Sier asked me to come here." Qi Tian smiled and nodded.
"Oh, that's it. Did Mr. Qi cure my disease? Why do I feel that all my strength is back?" Edmond knew that Qi Tian and Hill had always been in contact, so he was not surprised by Qi Tian's arrival.
Weird.
"Yes, I helped you restore the organs in your ### body."
"Oh, thank you so much..." Edmund glanced at Qi Tian gratefully, and then continued to ask: "I guess Mr. Qi has already met the other two heirs in the family, right?"
"Well, I've seen it before." Qi Tian nodded.
"Which one of them do you think is qualified to run the family business?" Edmund waited for Qi Tian's answer with a smile.
When Qi Tian heard Edmund's question, he did not answer Edmund directly. Instead, he thought about it for a while and said, "Hill is stable, Piccolo is anxious, and Danny is dangerous!"
"Oh? It seems that you are pretty good at judging people." Edmund's admiring eyes showed a trace of appreciation.
After Qi Tian heard Edmund's compliment, he just smiled slightly and didn't say much because he was waiting for Edmund to continue.
Sure enough, after thinking about it for a few minutes, Edmond slowly spoke out: "Mr. Qi, it was almost three years ago when we parted ways in Switzerland, right? Ever since we got your batch of gold, we Edmond
The international investment group has developed rapidly. We have branches not only in Europe, America, but even all over the world. The dividends earned every year are also paid to your account as scheduled in accordance with our agreement. Now I have
The person who died, regarding my afterlife, I did not make a will as rumored outside, but I wrote a will as early as two years ago, and my property and company were also dealt with. Please help me open that sandalwood bookcase.
." Edmund pointed to the sandalwood bookcase, and then directed Qi Tian how to open it.
What Qi Tian didn't expect was that Edmond trusted him so much that he even revealed the password to the safe. Moreover, Edmond actually hid the private will from everyone in the family. It seemed that
This old man deserves to be the leader of the clan!
Following Edmund's instructions, Qi Tian opened the bookcase step by step, and then opened the safe. When Qi Tian opened the safe, he was stunned because there was only a will and a book in the huge safe.
Apart from a golden pen, there was nothing else, not even a penny, not a deposit slip!
Edmond saw Qi Tian's movements slow down. He knew what Qi Tian was thinking, so he said silently: "For me, money is something external to me. If I don't bring it with me in life, I won't take it with me in death.
Bring me the will!"
"Oh..." The moment Qi Tian turned his head, his face showed respect and sincerity. At this moment, his heart was touched. Who would believe a banker who has no money in his safe?
"Mr. Qi, please read the contents of the will first. If you have any comments, please put them forward!" Edmond motioned to Qi Tian to read the will.
"Okay." Qi Tian knew that there must be something about himself in this will, so he read it attentively.
There was a lot written in the will. First, it was about Edmond's life experience, and then it mentioned the company's affairs. Only at the end did it mention Qi Tian, the largest shareholder of Edmond International Group. What Qi Tian didn't expect was
, Edmund, the old man, actually mentioned in his will that Qi Tian should take over Edmond's business, and Edhill also became the real heir, responsible for assisting Qi Tian in management. As for the other descendants of the family, it was just a generational transaction.
But he “does not have the power to manage the family and only enjoys part of the dividends received every year.”
When Qi Tian saw the last part, he slowly put the will on the table. At the bottom of the will were written the name of the notary and the name of the lawyer.
"What do you think?" Edmond's face looked more solemn and peaceful at this moment.
When Qi Tian heard Edmund's rhetorical question, he shook his head with a wry smile, and then asked: "Do you think your other two grandsons will give up?"
"Haha, I should have known you would ask this!" Edmond laughed twice and then immediately became serious, staring closely into Qi Tian's eyes: "What a family business fears most is infighting, and everyone is afraid of infighting.
Infighting is inevitable in a family. I am handing over the entire group to you. On the one hand, you are the largest shareholder and you should be in power. On the other hand, it is also to weaken the infighting in the family. I believe you will handle it well.
As for the other two grandsons, if they really want to cause trouble, you and Hill should discuss how to handle it, but it is best not to kill them, after all, they are all blood of my Amity family!"
"Well, just to repay your trust, I promise you not to hurt them!" Qi Tian nodded solemnly, and happily agreed to Edmond's request.
But everything often backfires. Qi Tian will not kill them, but they will not stop fighting among themselves. When Edmond and Qi Tian were discussing how to take over the company, they heard several gunshots.
"Bang, bang, bang!" After three gunshots, the entire manor was in chaos. Edmund and Qi Tian also looked out the window nervously. After a while, they heard the sound of someone going upstairs, and then softly
Knocked twice on the door softly.
"Do you want me to avoid it?" Qi Tian asked in a low voice.
"That's fine, you can go to the study and wait." After Edmund nodded, Qi Tian ducked into the study.
"Come in!" Edmond immediately ordered the people outside to come in after watching Qi Tian enter.
"Patriarch, it's not good, Master Piccolo has been killed!" A bodyguard looked at Edmund in panic.
"What? Who dares to kill people in the manor?" After Edmond said in surprise, he felt a tightness in his chest, and then he vomited a large mouthful of blood.
"Clan leader..." The bodyguard rushed over nervously and supported Edmond on the bed.
"Patriarch, according to the report of Master Piccolo's bodyguard Ramsay, it is probably the Chinese that Master Hill invited back, because the Chinese is not in his room now and is missing." The bodyguards regarded Qi Tian as a suspect.
, because Ramsay also planned to try Qitian at night, but when he arrived at Qitian's room, he found that Qitian was nowhere to be found. Just when he was about to go back, he heard gunshots in Master Piccolo's room, and he also looked at
Then a dark figure wearing a Chinese tunic suit ran out of Master Piccolo's villa, but he did not catch up.
"Chinese?" Edmond was stunned for a moment, then he reacted and said with a sigh: "Go down first and call all the clan members to the lobby on the first floor!"
"Yes!" the bodyguard replied and ran away immediately.
Seeing the bodyguards leaving, Qi Tian ducked out of the study. He had heard the conversation just now. Piccolo had been killed, and he suspected that the murderer was him. It seemed that he could wait no longer.
"Oh, I didn't expect that these descendants are so unworthy that they would kill each other for the sake of things outside of themselves. Mr. Qi, who do you think would do it?" Edmond seemed to hate iron for not being able to make steel. It seems that he has no regard for the descendants of the family.
very angry.
"Danny!" Qi Tian blurted out Danny without thinking.
"Well, we have the same idea, help me downstairs." After Edmond said that, he asked Qi Tian to help him downstairs, but Qi Tian stood there without moving.
"Old sir, I'd better catch the murderer first. I'll come back later!" After Qi Tian finished speaking, before Edmund could answer, he jumped out of the window in a flash. After a few ups and downs, he was gone.
No trace!
