Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress novel Chapter 933

Chapter 933: New head of the Bennet Family

Normally, these things — for instance, the talk about inheritance — were done after someone’s passing. Chairman Bennet hadn’t even passed yet, and yet, his attorney had already come to discuss what the chairman wanted to do if something bad happened to him.

All the Bennets were gathered in one of the executive rooms right in the hospital. The Bennets included Charles, Haines, Atlas, Hugo, Slater, Penny, and Zoren. The only other Bennet was Stephen, along with the chairman’s trusted lawyer and right-hand man.

SLAM!

"What did you say?" Charles scoffed, darting his eyes between the lawyer and his father’s assistant. "That is impossible."

Haines and all of Charles’s children wore grim expressions, clearly displeased by what they had heard. However, they stayed quiet because Charles was already speaking.

Charles glared at Stephen. "You bastard..." he hissed through gritted teeth. "Come here and I’ll kill you—"

Just as Charles leaped from his seat, Hugo and Slater quickly stopped their father from assaulting Stephen. After all, it seemed that was certainly what Charles would do to him.

"Dad! Calm down!" Slater yelled, hugging his father’s shoulder. "Let’s listen to everything first — this isn’t the end!"

"Slater is right, Dad," Hugo huffed. "Grandpa is still alive, and this will only be finalized once — no, it won’t be finalized anytime soon!"

But alas, Charles couldn’t hear his son as he was slowly being consumed with anger. The splitting of inheritance and who would get the chairman’s assets wasn’t what angered Charles.

"You traitor—!" Charles roared, his eyes burning at Stephen. "Stephen Bennet, my father treated you well — better than his own son. He treated your children better than mine... and this is how you repay his kindness?"

Slowly, Charles balled his hands into tight fists. "I should’ve punched you long ago, so you’d know I can knock all your teeth out without breaking a sweat. It was a mistake to trust you!"

Stephen maintained a plain expression, staring at Charles’s red face. He didn’t say anything, only sighing faintly, keeping his calm demeanor. He let Charles vent his anger in silence.

"What else does it say there?" asked Atlas, addressing the chairman’s lawyer. His tone was calm, but his expression was as dark as night. "Aside from the shares and properties?"

The lawyer cleared his throat and nodded, continuing the reading of the chairman’s will. "A property in the north will be given to his son..."

As the lawyer continued to read, Atlas’s expression grew darker with each passing moment. Once the lawyer finished, Haines, Charles, and Charles’s children all wore equally grim looks.
