Chapter 341 All Over The Place
Lara nodded.
"Grandfather, I've been married once. Besides, so many things have happened before, I'm afraid that..."
Old Master Levine's expression turned solemn.
"It's all in the past. Let bygones be bygones . You don't have to worry about it. Jaden is an open-minded person, so he won't care about these things. Therefore, you don't have to worry about this at all."
Lara bit her lip and shook her head.
"No, all this is my fault. If I hadn't been blinded by things before, if I had known the things that happened between dad and grandma earlier, everything that happened before wouldn't have happened. Although I am back to the Levine family now, I know clearly in my heart that my dark past would be something that could never be taken off me."
"I have already embarrassed you, so why do I have to get another person into trouble? It would be better if he minds about my past. However, he did not care about it. Since he is so kind, I can't hurt him. I can't let people use the fact that he has married a murderer's daughter against him. I can't do this!"
As she spoke, Lara covered her face and burst into tears.
Old Master Levine's face was contorted with rage. The atmosphere in the room suddenly froze.
After a while, he said angrily, "Nonsense! What do you mean by a murderer's daughter? You are just their adopted daughter! Your biological mother is the daughter of the Levine family, and has nothing to do with the Chapman family! What they've done has nothing to do with you."
Perhaps because he got too agitated, Old Master Levine coughed heavily in the middle of his speech.
Lara quickly comforted him. Then, she handed him some water and patted his back. It took a long time for Old Master Levine to recover.
Lara looked at him worriedly. "Grandpa, are you okay? Sorry, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have brought this up..."
Old Master Levine waved his hand dismissively, his voice weak and feeble.
"I'm fine, good girl, don't you worry. I'll take care of this. Don't listen to others, they don't know what they're talking about. Don't take their words to heart. I know that you and the daughter-in-law of the Jordan Family have a history, and that's why I want you to marry Jaden. With the Holland family as your rock, even if I'm gone in the future, she wouldn't dare to bully you.
Also, I've transferred all the 15 percent of the shares left by Vivian to you. Remember, no matter what Jaden told you, you can't transfer the shares to him. This is an asset for you to settle down in Visstead. You must learn to protect yourself and never trust the others easily."
As he spoke, he coughed heavily. Lara was already crying her heart out.
"Grandpa... "
"Lara, I'm sorry for what I've done for your mother. If it weren't for me who insisted for her to break up with that man, you wouldn't have been abducted, and stranded outside and suffered for so many years.
"It was all because of me that Vivian died from depression. I only hope that you can live well and make up for what I owe to Vivian and you."
Lara held his hand and cried so hard that she could not speak.
However, at this moment, outside the door.
Gillee listened to the conversation in the room and his expression turned gloomy.
With a snort, he turned around and left.
The old mansion of the Levine family was made up of three villas in a row. Old Master Levine lived in one house, and the eldest and second son of the Levine family lived in one house respectively.
As soon as Gillee got out of the house, he saw Quinne was holding Gimmy's arm and coming towards him.
Seeing him coming out in a huff, Quinne greeted him with a smile. "Gillee, it's so late now. You haven't gone back to your room to rest yet?"
Gillee snorted sarcastically. "I'm not the only one who hasn't slept. I could tell both of you are in good spirits. It's already two o'clock in the middle of the night, yet you are still out for a walk. Aren't you afraid of the cold?"
Gimmy looked calm and said with a faint smile, "We are worried about dad, so we're going to sleep later."
Gillee mocked, "Come on, do you think I don't know what's in your mind? You're just afraid that dad will suddenly die and you won't be able to get a share of his fortune. Don't pretend to be high-sounding here. We both know what we're up to."
Gimmy's face fell.
"Gillee, if that's what you think, then there's nothing I can do. But you can't gauge the heart of a gentleman with one's own mean measure. Even if you are after dad's inheritance, it doesn't mean that everyone else is like you."
Gillee gritted his teeth and said angrily, "That's enough! Are you a gentleman? If you are a gentleman, why would you find a little b*tch to deceive dad and let her take away the 15% shares from dad? Let me tell you, these shares belong to our family. Everyone has a share, so don't think of having all of them by yourself! Otherwise, even if things will get ugly, I will not let you have your way!"
Gimmy frowned.
"Gillee, those shares are given by dad to Lara. It has nothing to do with us."
"Ha!" Gillee seemed he had heard the funniest joke in his life. "Lara? Who the hell is she? Dad only gave it to her after he is convinced and thought she is really Vivian's child. If he found out that she is not Vivian's child at all, who do you think will end up with these shares?"
Gimmy's face suddenly fell.
"Gillee, stop talking nonsense!"
"Am I talking nonsense, or are you guilty?! I have known about it for a long time. I'm just hiding the truth for you for the sake of dad's happiness. You can't possibly hide this from me! Let me tell you, whatever you want to do, no one will stop you, but as for the shares, I will never give in. If you don't believe me, you shall wait and see. Let's see who wins in the end!"
As Gillee spoke, he walked off in a huff.
Quinne frowned worriedly, held onto Gimmy's arm, and said softly, "Gimmy, do you think Gille would tell dad about Lara's identity?"
Gimmy shook his head.
"No, dad's will hasn't been announced yet. It's no good for him to break the news now. Even if he wanted to fall out with me, he would wait until the contents of the will have been announced."
Quinne sighed.
"In fact, we did this because we want dad to hold on for a little longer. Didn't you notice? Since Lara's return, dad's health has improved a lot, and he's in good spirits. The reason why he suddenly fell ill this time is completely an accident."
Gimmy nodded.
"Yes, the Levine family is thriving because of dad. If he passes away, the Levine family will definitely be all over the place. By that time, the Levine family could be easily defeated by anyone. I'm afraid we will also be removed from the four great families."
Upon hearing this, Quinne's face was full of worry.
Gimmy patted her hand and comforted her. "Fortunately, dad is fine now, so we don't have to worry too much. Let's just hold on for a little while. If his condition has been stabilized, let's go back to rest."
Quinne nodded.
