Chapter 193 I Don’t Want Anything Else Either

“The Hunter Family’s business?” As if she had expected what Lucian would say, Alicia wasn’t shocked. Instead, her expression went colder. “I’m not interested in your Hunter Family’s affairs. What I want to know is that since you don’t have many days left before you die, how do you plan to distribute your inheritance? How much do you plan to give Courtney? This girl is very sensitive. She wouldn’t dare to ask for anything; she’s just like her mother. As an elder, I can only come and ask on her behalf.”

Ever since Cecilia passed away twenty-five years ago, Alicia was utterly disappointed in Lucian. He was a man with no sense of responsibility for abandoning his wife and daughter. However, Courtney was his daughter. She deserved nothing less than what belonged to her. After all, Lucian’s family business started from Cecilia’s company.

The room fell silent. The inheritance was something that everyone present was concerned about. It related to their benefits, especially Susan and her daughter.

“I’ve already given Courtney her share,” said Lucian; his tone was gruff.

“What did you give her, Dad?” Anna blasted out anxiously.

Looking up, Lucian glanced at her and his gaze was oddly cold. “Citron Apparel Company Limited. I gave it to Courtney.”

“Citron Apparel?” Anna did not know that there was such a company under the Hunter Group. Just when she was about to inquire more, Susan quickly grabbed her, signaling her to stop talking.

Susan was the only one who knew that Citron Apparel was Lucian’s memorial to Cecilia. All these years, the company was in a financial deficit, and it could only stay afloat because of the support given by the head office. To transfer this company to Courtney was like tossing away a hot potato that no one wanted.

“Aunt Alicia.” Courtney caught Alicia’s hand. “Besides Citron Apparel, I don’t need anything else. It’s my mom’s company. We should leave.”

 

Upon hearing that, Alicia knitted her brows and finally said, “Fine.”

Before they left, Courtney gazed at Lucian. “Dad, I wish you a happy and healthy life after you go home.”
