Sharon angrily pointed at Luna and exclaimed, "Does that child, born of you and that scoundrel, deserve to carry the blood of our Barrett family? Absolutely not! I'll never acknowledge your existence for as long as I live. You can forget about ever being a part of our Barrett family!"
At that moment, Sharon had completely lost the posture of a wealthy lady and appeared as disoriented as a street shrew.
Luna responded with unwavering determination, "Haha, really? The lady outside seems to have a strong affection for him. She insists that Mr. Barrett Senior treated my late husband exceptionally well, even acknowledging him as if he were an heir. It's unfortunate that my husband's health was not good, and he passed away due to a minor accident. Otherwise, he would have been able to return to the Barrett family and claim the inheritance."
"You're talking nonsense. After my husband died, all his inheritance went to my son. You don't have any right to claim it."
"That's because you are unaware of the existence of that will. Otherwise, how do you think I managed to stay in the Barrett family for so long without any hassle? My son Asher inherited 5% of the shares of the Barrett Group from my husband, which now stands in Asher's name."
Upon hearing these words, Raymond's eyes lit up. With this kind of connection, collaborating with the Barrett family would be the most powerful alliance.Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
Mia glanced at Luna in surprise. She didn't expect Luna to keep the secret so well hidden. Something was not right.
Sharon suddenly collapsed and exclaimed, "He actually left 5% of the shares for that illegitimate child. This is too much. Why should he leave 5% of the shares for that bastard?"
Luna proudly declared, "I've told you that my husband was highly favored by Mr. Barrett Senior. If Mr. Barrett Senior hadn't passed away prematurely and my husband's health hadn't failed, it's uncertain who would be in charge of the Barrett family today."
Mia suddenly questioned, "Luna, if you owned shares, why would you still be living in such a financially restricted situation?"
Because of Luna's superficial personality, if she had gotten the shares, she would have become very wealthy. However, from Luna's previous state, it was evident that she did not possess significant wealth. Luna's expression changed slightly. "Because I keep a low profile."
Sharon glared at Timothy and exclaimed, "Tim, how could you allow that rascal to snatch away 5% of your shares? You don't have to deal with them, let alone bring them back into the Barrett family." "Mom, this is the will that Dad left behind. It can't be altered. It has already been notarized, and a lawyer has been appointed to handle it. Even if I were to disregard it, the will would still be executed," Timothy explained.
Then, his gaze fell upon Mia. "The shares have been transferred to Asher. The funds are to be managed by trusted individuals and can only be accessed when Asher comes of age. The money may only be used for educational purposes or for Asher's benefit. Otherwise, it is to remain untouched."
Mia immediately understood that there was an arrangement. No wonder Luna was so humble and reserved while she was with the Barrett family.
It seemed that Timothy also realized that Luna was not a good person, so he made such an arrangement. It was important to note that Luna was quite tolerant before, as she had not shown her true colors for five years.
Luna was feeling a hint of discontent. "In any case, once my son reaches adulthood, all of this will be his. He's not just an ordinary boy. He's also a part of the Barrett family. Moreover, he's the grandson of the president."
In the near future, he might become the heir of the presidential family, and he won't have to respect the Barrett family ever again.
