"Thank you, Jessie. I will do my best to protect you. Don't worry, I have seen what you have done, and I understand your thoughts. I will strip them bare, and I won't let you suffer any more harm." Lucille was really grateful to her for revealing this.
"Also, I heard Madam repeating the fact that Master Marvin had wanted to pass 10% of his stocks and real estate to you. In the end, when the will was read out, I heard that you received nothing. You can check that out too," Jessie added.
When Franklin heard that, he did not expect Alma to go so far. He nodded, "Alright, we will take everything back with interest."
As long as they could prove that this video was real, there was no way for Alma and Natasha to prove their innocence anymore.
Franklin took the video for evaluation. After that, he immediately sued Alma and Natasha. Later, after getting recommendation from Skylar, he used his lawyer, Marcellus, for the case.
At first, Alma and Natasha were fearless. However, when they came to court and saw the video that was revealed, their faces turned deathly pale.
Soon, the full version of the video was released on the Internet. It blew away all the rumors from before, and everyone started to reconsider this matter once more.
The reporters who took the photos of the tombstone were the first to publish an article, further proving Alma's words to be different from her actions.
It was also at this point that more and more people started to post articles one after another. Even Natasha and Lucille's university classmates came out to testify.
The entire incident completely changed direction overnight!
Alma and Natasha had failed, and they were found guilty in court!
They were locked up, and before the final verdict, their funds were frozen. The Jules Group was suddenly in chaos. The top management of the company thought of Lucille and the house she bought with millions. They immediately wanted her to come back and quell the overall situation.
At this moment, Alma and Natasha's judgment were out. Although there was no sufficient evidence to prove that Marvin's death was directly related to them, the video still proved that they delayed the critical time for his rescue. The charge of tampering with his will was also confirmed and directly executed by the court. The stocks under their names were all given to Lucille.
Three months after the matter, Lucille came to the Jules Group as the rightful successor.
At this time, the company was already in a mess. Everyone did not have much hope for Lucille's arrival.
In their opinion, she was just an artist.
When she joined the meeting, she saw the high-level managers and directors all sitting lazily.
She stood at the front of the long table, and she was not discouraged when she saw this situation. After she gave a speech, she said, "I am here to introduce someone to all of you today."
Hearing this, all the managers tried their best to cheer up, but someone immediately said, "Are you going to find a new high- level manager? Before this, Alma said that she was going to find one too."
Lucille did not answer. She only said, "The person I want to introduce to you is the president of Moore Group, Franklin."
When they heard this, everyone immediately sat up.
As soon as the door of the conference room opened, he entered, dressed in a handsome black suit. He introduced himself, "My name is Franklin. From today onwards, I will accept Miss Jules' request to be the new president of the Jules Group."
The scene turned into an uproar immediately!
Several senior leaders looked at each other. Although they murmured complaints in their hearts, they quickly gave a warm applause in a hurry.
Franklin was no longer the man he used to be. He used to be dedicated to business in the past few years. Coupled with his relationship with Skylar of the Skyton Corporation, the scale of his company was continuously expanding. It was no longer a small company anymore.
No matter what agreement he had with Lucille, his arrival meant that there would be sufficient funds and excellent resources. It was a good thing for the Jules Group.
Alma and Natasha continued to make several appeals, but in the end, they were charged with purposeful murder. Alma was sentenced to jail for eight years, while Natasha only got four.
On the day of their judgement, Lucille did not watch them. She was busy handling the formalities for Aurora to enter her new kindergarten.
