The doc.u.ment states everything about the Last Will of the previous head!

"Third Uncle..." Piore murmured with a shaky voice. He then first looked around them he even turned his head to the back to make sure no one else is looking at what he is holding.

"Go on. No one would dare." Nikos assured while he observes Piore's every action.

Piore stared at Nikos suspiciously, his eyes clearly questioning the other.

How did Nikos get a hold of the doc.u.ment?

Is this the real one?

Why is Nikos asking him to read it?

Is he not afraid that Piore will betray him later and use the information on the doc.u.ment to his own advantage?

Piore clearly wants an explanation, but the other man just waved his hand indicating for him to continue. Having no choice but to comply, he got back to reading everything that is written on each page.

Though he is scared for even holding it, it does not mean he will pass the chance to see it!

He made sure not to miss anything and carefully read all words pertaining to the clan segregation of inheritance, assets as well as the Selection process.

The most shocking for him is that Mo Lihua is the only one who is specifically mentioned with a fixed inheritance regardless if she wins or loses the Selection!

'Isn't this digging her own grave? What was the old man thinking?' Piore cannot help but ponder.

There are more than three clauses regarding Mo Lihua's inheritance just showing how biased the old man was.

Another change is that there is no killing during the whole process. Which is really surprising for him. 'Probably the old man realize that ones he died, his children and grandchildren may slaughter each other to the point of the clan downfall.'

The reading of the previous head's last will was supposed to be done at Country M and most of the time aside from the main branch of the clan, only those with red envelope invitation can attend.

As a Bastardo, if Piore is not a guardian, he is not even allowed to discuss anything related to it.

If he was not given a chance to read the will at that time, who knows how the others will react. It's funny to see the old man favouring a girl who is not even serving the family for years like an exile.

Piore is not sure if this is a good thing or it will just create unnecessary issues for them. Well at least, Mo Lihua is not married yet, or else it will bring disaster to her own husband if he is not approved by the family.

Doncrelli clan members never shared any to outsiders after all.

"Tres Claves?" Piore cannot help but ask honestly, "What is that?"

"That is none of your business," Nikos answered with a chilly tone that stopped Piore from asking another thing.

'Why did you even show me this if I am not allowed to know more?' He asked himself with disdain.

The doc.u.ment clearly states that all daughters and sons from the main branch should participate in the Selection.

Sadly, even though Piore's father is from the main branch, he is still not allowed to participate since he is already branded as a Bastardo.

Just thinking about it annoys the hell out of him. In all honesty, he is really not into helping Mo Lihua at all as he does not find her qualified enough!

"Feeling bad?" Nikos asked suddenly with indifference.

Gritting his teeth, "Third Uncle, what is the meaning of this? Did you steal this doc.u.ment?" Piore decided to retaliate this way.

"Yes. Feel free to tell them, I don't mind." Nikos confirmed, with a raised brow. He then chuckled to Piore's discomfort, "There is nothing wrong for being upset."

"Of course, since I don't even have the right to be upset," Piore replied with a chuckle as he tried to find humour to what Nikos has said.

Regardless of how the man responded to him, it will still sound like he is taunting him.

Releasing a deep breath, "Piore, I choose you for a reason. Do not disappoint me." Nikos replied with a warning.
