Jack flashed a smile at the lawyer standing beside him. "Mr. Carter, why don't you tell him?"
Mr. Carter stepped forward, clearly quite eager to flaunt his professional knowledge.
"Grayson, I think I should remind you that Mr. Ares is the father of Grand Asia’s president. If something unfortunate were to happen to the president, it's only natural for his father to inherit a share of Grand Asia's assets."
Grayson’s eyes lit up in anger when he heard Mr. Carter's emphasis on the words 'something unfortunate'. "Jack, I'm afraid you’re going to be disappointed. My president has a wife and children of his own, so you’ll never get the chance to stick your hand into Grand Asia."
Jack stared at Grayson calmly. "Are you talking about Rose?"
Jack gave Mr. Carter a curt nod in an unbearably arrogant manner. "Mr. Carter, show him Jay's marriage certificate."
Mr. Carter pulled out a document file from a stack of folders, and after flipping it open to check for the right wedding certificate, he handed it to Grayson proudly." Look carefully now, Grayson. Angelina Severe is your rightful Mrs. President, and Ms. Angelina Severe
passed away nine years ago in a car accident.
Therefore, Jay Ares' three children and parents are the only eligible people to inherit Grand Asia's assets."
Grayson was dumbfounded when he saw the name printed on the marriage certificate.
However, he quickly came around to his senses and rebuked, saying, “You're making this up! Mrs.
President will be back soon! Also, even if Mr. Ares is unable to manage the company for the time being due to health issues, he has put Young Master Jenson in charge of Grand Asia, so your plan has failed. You can go now."
Jack gulped as a troubled look spread across his face.
He had thought that Jay would either die or suffer severe injuries, and at most, it was likely he was a gone man. Grand Asia's management recognized this a s well and they had made the wise decision based on current affairs, which was to abandon their young successor and choose to support this experienced manager to take over.
However, he did not realize how unworldly Grayson was.
As long as Jay was alive, he would not be qualified to take over all his inheritance. If Jay returned safe and sound, Jay would draw up a will that would not benefit him at all. Then, all his dreams would dissolve into thin air.
