Violet barely hesitated. "If you could find a way to get some of the inheritance from Sebastian, I will surely be on your side."
"Let me be clear, I'm not helping you because I have nothing to do. I could help you fight for more of the inheritance, but the inheritance we get, we split in half."
"You're also Dean's daughter, I'm sure you can fight for some of the inheritance, too, right?" Violet asked her question.
"Yes, but I would surely not get much. After all, I didn't live close to Dean."
"I understand. If that's the case, I can appeal on my own. I don't need your help…"
"Hahaha! Do you think Sebastian is a rookie? You could hire your lawyer, but won't he also hire his? Sebastian has inherited a huge fortune. He could hire the best lawyer in the world. Are you sure that by relying on your brain you can win the lawsuit? If you're that great, would you really have spent all that time under Sebastian?" said Natalie, mocking her heartlessly. "If you want to fight alone, be my guest! I could still find other people. Dean has so many other children. Surely one of them would be willing to cooperate with me."
Violet had lost all her confidence from that blow.
Natalie looked at Violet, taking in her sadness. She continued, "If you don't believe me, then pretend I never said anything. You can wait for Sebastian to contact you! See when he will do so."
Violet said, "Natalie, it's not that I don't believe you, but you really surprised me. I didn't think you had killed Dean. You are the most capable among us siblings. I believe that if you fight for the inheritance, you'll get it. Let me consider this for a while! I want to see the contents of the will."
"Sure! You'll know the answer by tomorrow." Natalie smiled in satisfaction.

In Aryadelle, after breakfast, Avery walked to the door to look at the weather outside.
