"It's exactly what you think it is: Sebastian has decided to share his inheritance with us. It's not much, but at least we get something, so there's no need for a lawsuit anymore," Violet said. "You don't have to contact us from now on. It's over."
Natalie could not find her words, and, after waiting a few seconds, Violet hung up.
The others immediately stared at Violet as soon as she ended the call.
"Is Natalie furious? Did she curse at you or something?" Christine asked.
Violet shook her head. "She didn't say a thing, so I hung up. She's probably not that unreasonable. It's not like we are the ones who didn't give her a share of the inheritance... She has no reason to resent us."
"True. Now that we have our shares, I am satisfied."
"Me, too," Stacy said. "Dad wouldn't have given me this much, even if he was in the right mind."
"If everyone is okay with their share, we will put this behind us after this meal. We can all still gather during special occasions from now on," Violet said.
"I have no issue with that. Let me pay for lunch this time."
"Since Sebastian has agreed as well, let's gather again soon!"
Sebastian sighed a long breath of relief after lunch.
The most troublesome situation was finally resolved, and he called Avery joyfully to share the good news.
Avery answered her phone.
