Chapter 87 - 87 On What Basis?
87 On What Basis?
Kelly had thought that she could buy some time by pushing the blame to Balor.
Unexpectedly, after hearing her words, George did not intend to leave. Instead, he ordered, “Then call your father and tell him to come back immediately. Otherwise, I’ll tear down his study!”
George, who was one-track minded, was really as stubborn as a donkey when he got stubborn. Under his intense gaze, Kelly could only pick up her phone and call Balor to tell him what had happened.
After hearing this, Balor was so angry that he was stomping his feet in the office. However, the other party was George, the young master of the Anderson family. He really could not just scold him back, “Who are you? Who are you to interfere in our family affairs?”
Balor was afraid that George would really tear down his study, so he could only rush back.
“Young Master Anderson, you can’t do this.” As soon as they met, Balor hurriedly stepped forward and stopped him. “The things inside all belong to the Lambert family. You don’t have the right to take them away.”
In his impression, this young master of the Anderson family had a noble status, but his brain wasn’t very good, and he was especially easy to fool. Therefore, he planned to fool him first and make him leave.
Unfortunately, although George was a coward, he was not really stupid. Besides, he did not go out alone. He had bodyguards and Mr. Howard with him.
Under their instructions, George had already gotten Caroline’s signature and authorization before he set off. Hence, his trip today was completely legal and in-law.
When Balor saw the power of attorney, he stared at Caroline’s signature for a few seconds, and his expression kept changing. When George saw it, he could not help but feel a little disgusted.
Caroline was such a pretty girl. Why did her father look so shabby?
It was a good thing that he didn’t say this out loud. Otherwise, Balor would have been so angry that he would have vomited blood. In the past, he had been able to obtain Helena Lambert’s favor as a poor boy, so his appearance naturally wouldn’t be too bad. However, after so many years of indulging in wine and women, he had long become fat and bloated. He was dejected, and his face had long lost the handsome appearance of his youth.
However, even so, Balor was not in a good mood. He gritted his teeth and said, “I’ve already cut off all ties with this unfilial daughter. She’s no longer a part of the Lambert family.”
In other words, she was no longer in charge of the Lambert family’s matters.
George laughed. “I think you’re mistaken about something, or have you really forgotten what your original last name is?”
When he said this, Balor’s expression changed drastically. This was the thing that he hated to hear others mention the most in his life. However, George did not care about his expression at all and continued to stab him in the heart. “You have severed your father-daughter relationship with Caroline, but that is only in the past. Caroline is still the young lady of the Lambert family.”
George’s words completely exposed Balor. “Although you have changed your surname to Lambert, you are only an outsider to the Lambert family.” He glanced at the shocked Kelly and added, “You and your daughter are the same.”
So, it was just wishful thinking on their part to say that they had kicked Caroline out of the Lambert family.
George waved the list in his hand. “Regardless of morality or law, Caroline has the ownership of these things. If you don’t hand them over, I can directly sue you for possession.”
After that, he looked at Mr. Howard with a smug expression that said, “I’m not wrong.” Howard laughed in his heart and nodded at him. George became even prouder when he saw this.
Balor did not dare to get angry at George. When he saw Mr. Howard, he immediately turned the gun on him. “Howard, you sly lawyer. Were you the one who stirred up trouble behind the scenes?”
This was the case for the signing of the inheritance last time, and it was the same for the disposal of the inheritance this time. He was everywhere.
In the face of his criticism, Mr. Howard said in a neither humble nor haughty manner, “I’m just carrying out the mission given to me by my client.”
“You…” Balor pointed at him and cursed. “All these years of legal work in the company, and my side. All of us trusted you so much, but you betrayed me like this!”
Due to his work, Howard had come into contact with Balor several times. He completely looked down on a man who was blind, so he retorted, “After all, compared to you, I’ve known Old Mr. Lambert for a longer time, and compared to your betrayal of the Lambert family, what I’ve done has not violated my feelings for you or my professional ethics.”
