What did Sean's family do for Grandpa to leave such a will?
Shane clenched his fists in silence.
No matter what they did, I must get the will! I can't let them find it ahead of me.
Sam returned home in a restless state. Catherine came out to greet him and helped him to the couch to rest.
“Darling, what happened?”
“Hurry, I need some water,” commanded Sam.
Catherine nodded and poured him a glass of water.
Sam finished the water in one gulp and heaved a sigh of relief.
Catherine asked again, “Darling, what happened?”
“I just went to Shane's office,” said Sam as he placed the glass on the coffee table and sighed.
Catherine grabbed his arm and demanded anxiously, “Did Shane agree to forgive Sean?”
Sam snorted. “Forgive? He's stubborn, just like his dad. I know he wants us to suffer. I tried to convince him to
change his mind, but he refused to budge. Ugh, this is so frustrating!”
Catherine burst into tears. “How can he do that? Sean is his cousin! Doesn't he care about his cousin?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtA hint of uneasiness flashed across Sam's expression at her words. He frowned and chided, “Stop it.”
“What about Sean?” Catherine took a piece of napkin to wipe her tears away. “Doesn't Sean know he's no match
for Shane? Why did he insist on going against Shane? Now, he can't even come home.”
“It's all because of Dad's will!” explained Sam while massaging his temple.
Catherine shot him a furious glare. “You keep talking about that will. Why is that will so important to you both?”
Sam squinted his eyes. “There's something in the will that decides whether our family gets destroyed or not.”
Catherine paled visibly as she covered her mouth in shock. “It's about that?”
Sam nodded gravely.
Biting her lip, Catherine exclaimed, “Did Dad seriously write that down? How could he? You're his only son left!”
“Yes. Dad's too unfair,” came Sam's grim reply.
Catherine met his gaze. “Darling, we need to find the will and destroy it. Otherwise, we'll be in deep trouble.”
“I know. Shane doesn't know where the will is, so we're safe for now. Right now, Sean's safety is more important.
Shane won't stop until he finds Sean. We don't know what he will do to our son. This should be our priority for now.”
“What should we do?” Catherine clenched her fists. “You couldn't even persuade him to change his mind.”

“I have no idea. She just told me she wants to see you,” replied Mrs. Wilson.
