The last time Marco saw William's grandfather, Henry Devonshire, ten years ago, he mocked Henry in front of him for being so cruel that he only left his daughter and nephew a small house and donated the rest of his money.
Now, it seemed that he should be mocked. William, who had suffered since he was a child, had created twice as much wealth in just one year as he had in decades.
His son, who had never had to worry about food and clothing, had not only become a comrade, but had also achieved nothing. He only knew how to ask for money from him. Decades later, it would be questionable if he still had the surname Kans.
The other beneficiaries of the inheritance had also become stagnant because of the huge inheritance. They were waiting for him, the creator of the wealth, to go to God so that they could inherit the inheritance and live comfortably as rich people.
Seeing this, William shook his head after thinking about it. The reason why Henry did not leave any inheritance might have something to do with Marco's guess.
But the most reasonable explanation should be that Henry not only wanted to use suffering to train himself and his mother, Lena, but also to reassure those with ulterior motives. A pair of powerless, impoverished orphans and widows could not be a big threat.
Seeing this, William could not help but doubt. Since Marco could say this, it meant that the old man was not senile at all.
And there was one thing that William couldn't figure out even after thinking for more than ten minutes. Marco was a Frenchman, and he was already over 70 years old. It was impossible for him to not know that according to France's inheritance laws, even if he intended to leave all his assets to his new wife, it was impossible.
The romantic Gallic roosters had long enacted laws to prevent fools from giving all their wealth to mistresses and wives who had already been married.
According to the law, half of his wealth would be given to his wife, and the rest would be divided equally among his children. Even his adopted children had legal inheritance rights.
In this way, combined with what Marco said about Henry, William felt that he might want to use depriving his descendants of their inheritance rights to motivate them. Otherwise, when he really died, his descendants who had received a huge inheritance would really be wasted.
Or perhaps, William could not help but be shocked by his own thoughts, because another possibility was that Malcolm Kans had an illegitimate child outside.
Moreover, this illegitimate child was very favored by him. In order to let this illegitimate child monopolize all the inheritance, Marco sat and watched his descendants kill each other.
F * ck. Thinking of this, William couldn't help but shudder. God, if that's really the case, then …
Walking to the balcony of the suite, William silently looked at the sea and the golf course not far away. After a long time, he finished listening to the information he had found on Sunday.
Then, he instructed the hotel housekeeper to invite Charles Cavendish to the Grand Casino Hotel. Then, he took the printed information, changed into a full set of golf clothes, and walked to the golf course.
.....
Charles, who was panicking because of Marco and Toby's deaths, was relieved when he heard from the butler that William had personally come to Monte Carlo.
They arrived at the Grand Casino Hotel and took the golf cart to the hotel's golf course.
From afar, they saw William, who was dressed in casual clothes and wearing a ball cap, talking and laughing with a beautiful sparring partner with a hot figure, wearing a long-sleeved jacket and a short skirt.
Because the butler was not wearing flat shoes, he politely said to Charles, who had already changed into a full set of golf clothes, "I'm sorry, Mr. Cavendish, I can only send you here."
"Thank you." Looking at the butler in formal clothes and leather shoes, Charles nodded in understanding, pinched his hat, and politely returned the gesture.
Without waiting for Charles to approach, William, who was learning the key points of golf swing from the beautiful coach and taking the opportunity to take advantage of the situation, stopped the club in his hand and turned to look at Charles who was walking over.
Seeing that William had noticed him, Charles waved happily, "Good morning, William."
"Good morning." After that, William walked to the side and nodded to a caddie. He smiled and said to Charles, "I heard that you're good at golf. Want to try?"
Charles thanked him politely and took the club handed to him by the caddie. He stood at William's position without hesitation, adjusted for a moment, and swung the club.
The golf ball flew across the long fairway and flew straight towards the green. A few seconds later, it accurately landed near the green.
"Good shot." William praised with a smile, "It seems that the rumors about you liking sports are true."
When he hit the small white ball just now, Charles felt that it was a good shot, but he didn't expect to be able to hit the green directly with one shot.
He laughed happily, "It seems that my luck is not bad."
"Your luck is not bad." William nodded in agreement. Before Charles could be happy, he saw William wave his hand to ask the caddie and coach to step back.
He said faintly, "If you were the first successor, after Marco's death yesterday, the person who went to see God next would be you, not your comrade cousin Toby. So, your luck is not bad."
Charles rolled his eyes and ignored William's teasing. He asked, "You know all about it?"
Nodding, William took out a golf tee and inserted it into the ground. He then put a ball on it. According to Sunday's instructions, he swung the club in his mind and hit the ball.
Looking up at the trajectory of the ball, he knew that the ball must have missed. He threw the club to the caddie and walked towards the green with Charles.
"Let me ask you a few questions."
Charles, who was half a step behind William, nodded hurriedly, "Go ahead."
"I learned from the French police's transcript that before Marco died, the yacht's hall suddenly darkened. The murderer took advantage of the darkness and used the ancestral dagger of the Kans family to kill Marco?"
Charles, who had personally experienced the murder scene, replied without thinking, "That's right. At that time, Marco was about to sign the new will that left all his inheritance to Susie.
Just as he was about to sign it, the circuit in the yacht's hall suddenly short-circuited. When the circuit was restored, Marco was already lying on the ground with the Kans dagger full of gems stuck in his chest. "
"Then do you think a yacht worth 21 million USD would have undergone maintenance before sailing?"
These words made Charles' expression uncertain. He had actually thought of such a simple reason a long time ago. It was certain that Marco's murderer had accomplices outside.
Otherwise, how could it be so coincidental that the circuit short-circuited just as Marco was about to sign it?
William smiled and continued, "As far as I know, the Liwa 50 that I sent to my girlfriend, Ambrosius, would be specially maintained and inspected after it set sail and arrived at the shore to avoid," William continued, "
"I understand that," Charles interrupted William. The crew and attendants were suspicious, but the bigger suspect was the person who left the yacht's hall before the murder. "So, Grace Ballard is one of the murderers?"
"What do you think?" William waved to the caddie. The caddie immediately went forward and took out a file from his bag. Under William's signal, he handed it to Charles and retreated far away.
