The Tang Sect had multiple businesses that would require crossing the seas, and if they ruined the relationship that they had with the Xue family, they would be facing a lot of problems.
The elders were not fools.
Other than their status and shares, they had nothing else. They had no medical skills, and they were not able to maintain such a close relationship with the Xue family, like how Dong Yutong could. Plus, other than having some knowledge about running businesses, they knew nothing about defending the Tang Sect and they did not have that many advantages when it came to fighting their enemies.
Soon, most of the elders kept quiet.
“Second Miss… How much of Saka’s share would you want?” The first elder couldn’t help but ask.
“I won’t be taking all of it, but I want most of it.”
“How much would that be?”
After that, Dong Yuetong and the elders of the Tang Sect sat down and started to negotiate.
The negotiation continued in the conference room for one whole day, from the afternoon of one day until the afternoon of the next day. In the end, they finally came to an agreement after considering how everyone would benefit from it. Just when they were extremely exhausted and hungry, thinking that they could finally celebrate with a good meal, there was a knock at the door.
Saka’s designated team of lawyers came with her will.
The entire crowd, which had been struggling for one whole day, turned speechless.
She was still making fools out of them, even after her death!
They knew the lawyer that was leading the entire team, and it was Saka’s designated lawyer. He was a shareholder of the world’s largest law firm, Hamilton Law Firm, and also one of their best lawyers—York.
York did not look like his usual self, always smiling. Instead, he now had a stern look on his face and was standing directly opposite of Dong Yuetong. He took out a piece of document and said, “Miss Dong, Elders of the Tang Sect. Good morning. I am Saka’s lawyer, York. I’m so sorry about what happened to Saka. Now, I will be announcing to all of you how Saka will be distributing her shares in the Tang Sect.”
“You want to make an announcement? Why are you qualified to do that? You’re just Saka’s lawyer. Each and every one of the people here are respectable elders of the Tang Sect. They are more qualified than you to be doing this.”
Dong Yuetong was especially sensitive to the word ‘distributing.’
Some of the elders that managed to get what they wanted were supporting Dong Yuetong now.
“You can only make such an announcement if Saka had made this will right in front of us when she was still alive. Otherwise, no matter what announcement you’re making now, it will not affect the distribution of shares amongst the members of the Tang Sect.”
York was not annoyed at all. He was an experienced lawyer at the world’s largest law firm, and he had been facing people like this for a long time. He had seen conflicts in much bigger corporations.
York chuckled and said, “Please calm down. Can you see the camera in my hand, which is recording? There is a live broadcast that is going on with this camera. Saka mentioned that once she died, I would have to do a global live broadcast of the announcement of her will and the distribution of her shares in front of all her senior executives working for her company on the third morning after her death. Everything that you have said or will be saying will be broadcasted live.”
As the word ‘distribution’ appeared once again, Dong Yuetong felt her head spin.
“A will? How is it possible that there is a will?! She was so young! How would she know that she was about to die? THIS IS FAKE! THE WILL THAT YOU HAVE IS DEFINITELY FAKE!”
“Miss Dong, the authenticity of the will in my hands can be proven. If you don’t believe it, you can file a lawsuit in court. As for now, I will be showing you a video of Saka declaring her will.”
WHAT?! It wasn’t only on paper? He also had a video?
Everyone was shocked.
The lawyers even brought their own projector, the video that Saka had recorded before her death appearing on the screen. How could they say that this was something fake?
“Hi, I’m Saka.”
