Chapter 132: Poor Maternal Grandmother
However, the will has been established, and everything is protected by law. No matter how much they fight or make trouble, there’s nothing they can do.
"Then shouldn’t you avoid going even more?" Eric asked with a faint smile.
"Grandma Carter wanted my mom and me to stay away from all the open and hidden conflicts, but if I don’t go, do you think Frank will just let me off?" Ella sneered.
"From what I know, Frank is a man driven by profit. Even if you don’t show up tonight, he’ll still find a way to appear in front of you. It’s far too easy for him to entangle you."
"That’s exactly why I have to go and meet them, so they won’t keep hovering around me."
Ella pouted, but Eric frowned slightly and sighed softly, "Little girl, you really shouldn’t go. There’s no need. Because... they won’t treat you sincerely. Do you want to know why?"
Ella’s eyebrow twitched.
"Because your Grandma Carter founded Carter Group, though it was built through the hard work of both your grandparents. But as the family business grew and Carter Group became more prosperous, your grandfather got involved with his secretary, and they had twins together. Then, your grandfather secretly swapped your real uncle with the son of the mistress."
Ella’s eyes widened in shock as she looked at him in disbelief!
"Nobody knows where your real uncle ended up, but the secretary’s two sons grew up happily under your grandmother’s care. Eventually, after an accident, your grandmother discovered the truth. But she pretended not to know and continued to care deeply for your two uncles. That’s why she left 15% of Carter Group’s shares to you in her will."
Ella took a deep breath.
