The smile on Scarlett's face faded. "Does Chris know about this?"
Chloe took a sip of her coffee. "He'll know sooner or later."
Chloe said, gesturing to the file Scarlett was holding. "Aren't you going to look at it?’
Scarlett pursed her lips for a moment. She looked down and took the document out of the folder in her hand and found it to be a will.
Scarlett was stunned for a moment. "Ms. Wilson?"
"My cousins don't care about family ties. It won't be the safest choice, whether it will be in my hands or Chris'. If you don't show up, I'll just have to give this will to Camille."
Scarlett frowned for a moment. "Are you saying that 1 should take this will back home?"
"You're pretty smart."
Looking at Scarlett, Chloe smiled. "Even if they were racking their brains, they wouldn’t expect you to have this will."
Chloe said, pausing for a moment. "Don't worry about it. I've had this will notarized by three lawyers at the same time. Unless I personally speak up and deny this will, anyone will have to follow this will."
Scarlett found it strange, but she couldn't tell.
Looking at Chloe in front of her, Scarlett hesitated. "I hope you don't mind. But you are only sixty years old, aren't you?"
