Chapter 446 Let's Sign An Agreement
Jory's words were to ease Roseane's worries.
With Matthew's promise, as well as Beau and Roseane's support, Roseane still felt a little uncomfortable that she could not be accepted by the real Valentine family.
But now, Jory was clearly on Roseane's side, which meant that he also recognized Roseane as a member of the Valentine family.
Her eyes were slightly moist. She looked at Jory and said softly, "Thank you."
"What should you call me?" The old master looked at Roseane with gentle eyes.
"Grandpa. Thank you, grandpa."
"Alas." The old master smiled happily and looked at Lucy. "What's your answer?"
Of course, Lucy would not refuse. She hurriedly said, "I won't destroy it. From today on, I recognize Roseane as my daughter-in-law!"
She hugged Roseane affectionately and her face was filled with flattery.
"A verbal promise is too easy to go back on. Let's sign an agreement," Beau said.
Lucy's willpower could easily be swayed. It was easy for her to be bewitched and used by others.
She was too good at making a scene, and Beau did not want to deal with it anymore when she made the scene ugly again, so he simply wanted to solve it all at once.
"What agreement?" Lucy was a little worried that she would suffer losses.
"The old master is also here today. We can ask him to be our witness."
"As long as you approve that Roseane is Matthew's only wife and won't ruin their relationship."
"After Roseane is pregnant, I will transfer all the shares of the Valentine's Group to Matthew. I will directly withdraw from the management of the Valentine's Group."
Lucy's heart was pounding. Matthew was her son, and he would never ignore his own mother.
Even if Gian abandoned her and went to stay with his mistress and daughter, she didn't have to worry about her future life at all.
Beau had not finished speaking.
"The two real estate properties under my name will be given to Roseane and Matthew as a wedding gift."
"As for you, Lucy..."
Beau was still thinking about what to give her when Jory grabbed his hand before he could say anything.
"As long as you agree to our conditions, I will compensate you with the remaining 50% of the Valentine family's properties after I give the 50% share to my great-grandson after I die."
If the conditions that Beau had proposed were only enough to make Lucy's heart flutter, then Jory's words made her ecstatic!
Half of the old master's family properties!
How much money would that be? She could buy several villas by the sea!
Lucy no longer had any worries and immediately said, "Okay! Take out the agreement and I will sign it now! No matter what conditions you propose, I will agree!"
She could not even breathe properly. She had never dreamed that she would be blessed with such a great fortune.
Roseane turned her head uneasily and looked at Beau and Jory.
"Is this a good idea?"
Lucy would indeed get a lot of money according to the agreement, but at the end of the day, she and Matthew were the direct beneficiaries.
As long as she and Matthew were fine and had a child successfully, they could get half of the wealth accumulated by the Valentine's Group and Jory.
As for Gian, his mistress, and his daughter, they couldn't get anything.
Not only them, but also Mr. Valentine and Eliza. They couldn't get anything at all.
"Although we are not related by blood... Matthew and I have always regarded Mr. Valentine and Eliza as family members. The properties of the Valentine family should not only be divided into two parts."
Roseane looked at Eliza as she said these, causing Eliza to burst into laughter.
"Are you afraid that my husband can't afford to feed me?"
Roseane was embarrassed. Mr. Valentine was so powerful that he could build a business empire on his own. How could he not afford to feed a woman?
"That's not what I meant. It's one thing for you to be capable, and another thing for you to gain."
If it weren't for Beau, the Valentine's Group would have long been taken up by people. It wouldn't have been as glorious as it was today.
If Matthew were here, he would not have agreed to this arrangement.
Lucy was a little anxious. She was afraid that if Beau went back on his word, her benefits would be reduced.
"Silly child, keep it for yourself. What are you worried about?"
Roseane frowned. "That's not the case..."
Seeing that she was really worried, Eliza spoke slowly.
"It's a fact that the Mr. Valentine expanded the Valentine's Group, and it's also a fact that the Valentine family raised him."
"We still owe you a favor, and we didn't want the Valentine family's property. Now, we leave it all to you and Matthew as a protection for your marriage."
"If you really treat us as your family, don't refuse anymore."
Hearing Eliza's words, Roseane felt more and more guilty.
She lowered her head and said sadly, "I'm sorry, Eliza."
Eliza raised her eyebrows. "Why are you apologizing again?"
"I used to trust Gellert so lightly that I even suspected you and the Mr. Valentine. I'm such a disappointment. I'm really sorry."
Mr. Valentine had always been open and aboveboard. Eliza was her most trusted friend. How could she have such thoughts at that time?
Eliza didn't expect that she was still thinking about this. She sighed softly. "It's not your fault."
"It was Gellert who misled you. He was too cunning. He knew that you were worried about your mother's operation at that time, so he deliberately planned to make you suspect us."
Roseane's tears rolled down and were gently wiped away by Eliza.
"Didn't you go confront Kezia in order to help me get the recording? And you resolutely announced that you would withdraw from the entertainment industry?"
Roseane's tears were still rolling down, and Eliza could only comfort her in a soft voice.
Lucy was afraid that they would go back on their word, so she urged Beau to get the agreement.
Beau glanced at her coldly.
"I'll get someone to come up with the agreement first, and you can come back to the hospital again tomorrow. When Matthew comes out of the quarantine ward, we can just sign our signatures, and then we can discuss on how to deal with Hollie and her mother."
Lucy stopped after she thought about it.
"As for the contents of the agreement, I advise you not to tell anyone else, especially Gian," reminded Beau.
Lucy was not stupid. Gian had cheated on her. She had just argued with him. It was basically a fall out. She was not stupid enough to reveal the contents of the agreement to him.
"Don't worry. I won't tell anyone. I won't tell anyone!"
Beau nodded coldly and looked away at Jory. "Shall I take you downstairs for a physical examination?"
Jory shook his head and refused.
"It's just a minor problem. Don't waste time."
"I'm relieved to know that Matthew is fine and he has your help."
"You don't have to take care of me. I should go back."
Jory was leaving and so was Lucy.
Beau didn't ask him to stay and personally sent him downstairs. Watching the car drive far away, he then turned to look for Owen.
"How is Gellert?"
Owen had just finished analyzing the ingredients of the medicine, and his expression was very serious at the moment.
"He had a slight concussion and a few stitches on his head, but the injury is not serious."
"Then why are you wearing such an expression?"
"It's not a big problem for Gellert. The problem is the medicine in the syringe."
"What do you mean?" Beau went forward to read the analysis data.
"It's said that the illegal medicine comes from K lab."
