My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 2284

The negotiations came to an abrupt halt.

Hendrix's face was so gloomy that it was terrifying. On the other hand, Aaron was still flirting with Emma, seemingly without fear. On one end, Hendrix could not touch his wife. Yet, Aaron was displaying such affection for Emma. Alas, Hendrix was very angry.

At this time, Jordan, who had been silent, put down the cutlery in his hand. Everyone's attention drifted to him.

He wiped his mouth calmly. His movements were gentle and elegant, and he was not in a hurry at all. Just when everyone thought he was steering clear of the conflict, he spoke again deliberately, "It's useless to talk further. The parties involved should just be frank with what they want."

The private room fell into silence again, and everyone had their own thoughts, as if they did not fully understand him.

Jordan placed the napkin back on the table and looked up at me. The corners of his lips curled up slightly, but his eyes flashed coldly as he said, "If you don't want the people closest to you defaming each other, why don't you draft another will to decide the final shares? As a lawyer, this isn't a difficult task for you, right?"

"Hmm..." Out of guilt, I didn't even speak for fear of revealing my nervousness. After all, that was how the will which had given Aaron authority had been previously created.

Having thought of this method, Jordan was indeed a rival that even Hendrix was intimidated by. Fortunately, I was a step ahead of him at the time. If not, I would not have even had the chance to put on this show with Aaron.

Seeing this, Aaron reacted immediately and began to put on his act.

He looked at Jordan warily, and then looked at me. He frowned and said, "Are you going to deal with your brother with such underhanded means?"

Aaron was naturally good- looking. Plus, his expression of being let down and victimized really sparked guilt and pity in others.

If I hadn't colluded with him beforehand, I would have knelt before him and begged him not to be sad.

Alas, who could be cruel to or deny the wants of such a charming being?

However, I was still acting like a woman who would not give up her life for the sake of love. Jordan's eyes were full of determination, and I pretended not to see it. I opened my reddened eyes and stared at Aaron, saying, "Legally, the succession of an heir must follow the final version of the will. As long as Hendrix can prove this, your status as an heir is nullified, and he is the legal heir..."

"Wait, can you repeat that?" Aaron lowered his voice, tears glistening in his eyes, and laughed mockingly. "Are you going to lecture me on the law? Without my support, do you think you'd even be able to pass your legal license? It was I who prepared the law firm for you, and now you are trying to pressure me with the law?"

Looking at the tears rolling down from the corners of his eyes, I was also affected. My nose twitched, and I could not hold back my tears. I stood up timidly and tried to comfort Aaron, "I didn't. That's not what I mean, Aaron. As long as you hand over the shares and turn a blind eye to it, they won't make things difficult for you. When the time comes, as soon as you take Emma's family and the children out of Zuckerburg, I promise nothing will happen to all of you."

Aaron shook his head in disappointment and replied sarcastically, "Things you had given me, you dare even ask for them back! So, how can I trust your assurance?" "!..." Knowing that I was in the wrong, I lowered my eyes and remained speechless. From the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of Jordan, who was watching coldly from the side. Then, I flew into a rage and said, "Do you want to drag everyone down with you?! Really?"

I did not know where the courage to say this came from, but since I had already spouted these words, there was no need to consider whether it was reasonable or not. Alas, a woman scorned would not behave rationally.
