Chapter 971: The Will Back Then
Huo Qihan became more and more agitated as he spoke, it was as if he wanted to vent all the dissatisfaction and grievance that he had buried in his heart all these years. “All of this was ruined because of you! If only you had never existed. As long as you hadn’t appeared, none of this would have happened. Your existence was a mistake in itself. Mom shouldn’t have given birth to you in the first place!”
Huo Chenhuan’s face darkened slightly. He knew that he could not reason with someone who would only think about his own interests. He said with disgust, “Mom and Dad shouldn’t have adopted you in the first place.”
“No, it’s not that they shouldn’t have adopted me. It’s that they shouldn’t have you after they adopted me. They even risked everything to give birth to you. When they adopted me, they promised me that I would be their only child for the rest of their lives. But in the end? They lied to me first, they didn’t keep their promise first! Since they can’t keep their promise, why don’t they just not mention it from the start?”
Huo Chenhuan listened to him calmly. He knew that in Huo Qihan’s eyes, no matter how much he said, he would just be a pretentious excuse for his supposed enemy, the one who had a vested interest.
However, this did not mean that he was not angry at all. “Just because they did not keep their promise and did not get rid of me in time, you harbored the intention to kill them? Huo Qihan, when mom was pregnant with me, you were already in your twenties, not a three-year-old child. They have raised you for more than ten years. Even if you are unhappy with them, you should not hurt them.”
Huo Qihan gritted his teeth and did not say a word.
Huo Chenhuan’s face darkened when he saw that Huo Qihan was not worthy of his parents. “Yesterday, I went to visit the retired lawyer Zhang.”
The lawyer Zhang that Huo Chenhuan mentioned was once the head of the Huo Corporation’s legal department. He was about the same age as Huo Chenhuan’s late father. Back then, some of the more important contracts in the Huo Corporation had to be drafted by him.
Among them was the will that Huo Chenhuan’s father left behind.
Huo Qihan’s body trembled, and his hand unconsciously grabbed the corner of the table.
“Back then, the reason why you were so anxious to harm the three of us, even to the point of cooperating with those gangsters. It was because you heard from someone that dad was going to revise the will a second time. You were worried that father would leave everything to me and not give it to you. That’s why you took the risk and wanted to get rid of all of us to prevent future trouble, right?”
...
Huo Qihan did not expect that this matter would be exposed. He lowered his head and looked at the table, his face filled with unwillingness.
“Then do you know what Dad’s revised will is?”
“What else could it be?” Huo Qihan laughed sarcastically. “You’re his biological son. He values you so much, and mom dotes on you so much. Naturally, he would leave all the good things to you.”
Huo Chenhuan did not explain. He just stuffed a doc.u.ment under the gla.s.s into a small window that was less than a centimeter high.
Huo Qihan looked at the doc.u.ment that appeared in front of him, and for some reason, he suddenly felt a sense of inexplicable fear. It was as if there was a flood or a ferocious beast hiding in there. Once their seal was broken, he would never be able to escape.
“Aren’t you going to take a look?”
Huo Qihan hesitated for a moment, but he still extended his hand toward the doc.u.ment.
He had nothing left to his left and right now. What awaited him would only be years of imprisonment. He had nothing left to lose.
The moment he flipped open the doc.u.ment, a few lines of words that had been specially marked in red entered Huo Qihan’s eyes, causing his pupils to shrink and his hands to tremble.
