He didn't know where Clare got the idea that he let the chef poison the food and poisoned the old patriarch.

But this incident was enough to kill him!

If he doesn't, Claire will definitely make it public, and he and Punk and all his family will die by then!

Compared with the position of patriarch, he obviously cherishes his own life more.

Taking a deep breath, Harriman stretched out his hand to Claire with a forced smile on his face, "My brother, no, I think I should call you patriarch now. Congratulations on becoming the No. 18 patriarch of the Ross family."

A faint smile appeared on Claire's face, and she took two steps forward to the middle position.

And those guests looked at each other and applauded. Although many people didn't want to see this result, but even Harriman expressed his support for Claire, so who can have any objection?

Didn't you see that although Baikal and Konga looked unwilling, they didn't say anything?

It's a foregone conclusion, and now most people are starting to think about how to make friends with Claire Lara.

"I'm surprised, I think..." Claire said.

But before he finished speaking, a lazy voice interrupted again.

"I'm sorry, I really don't want to disturb you at this time, but I really can't stand it anymore. My dear brothers, can't you use your brains? How can a father let a lawyer take away such an important thing as a will? ?So I guess this will must still be in the castle, perhaps locked in father's safe. Is it... a bit inappropriate to decide the choice of patriarch without even seeing the real will?" Jester shook Holding the glass of wine, the lazy smile still hung on his face.

Everyone looked at him. Jester has been ignored by most people all this time, because everyone knows that this patriarchal struggle has nothing to do with him from the beginning to the end.

But at this moment when he suddenly said such words, everyone's hearts became active for a while, and it was not in vain today, the position of the patriarch was really full of twists and turns.

Claire frowned slightly and looked at Jester, he didn't understand what Jester meant.

Based on his relationship with Jester, even Jester, who knew the will was fake, shouldn't come to tear him down.

Chapter 831 Things have changed

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Jester handed the wine glass in his hand to the waiter beside him.

Then he walked forward slowly and made an apologetic gesture to Claire.

"I'm sorry my dearest brother, you are the closest person to me in the Ross family. Since the day I returned, only you in the entire Ross family have made me feel like a loved one. But although I am very grateful to you, I still I hope we can respect the facts, at least we have to look at the true intentions of the father, I don’t want his children to start fighting for power just after his father passed away, I don’t think you want it either, right?”

Claire frowned slightly, looked at Jester with some dissatisfaction in her eyes, and said in a deep voice, "Of course."

He really didn't understand why Jester wanted to jump out to stir up trouble at this time?

What good does it do him?Was he the only one who knew that his father's will was still in the castle?

No!In fact, everyone knew that it was impossible for father to let people take out such an important thing from the manor, but everyone didn't know whose name would be on the will, so they deliberately ignored this issue.

With the help of Mo Shaokun, Claire succeeded and got Harriman's support. This is already a settled matter.

It would be a good thing for Jester if he succeeds in assuming the position. After all, as Jester said, only Claire in the Ross family treated him as a brother.

But why did Jester say such things at this time?Didn't he see that it wouldn't do him any good if it wasn't in Clare's name?

He should understand that although Jester always looks like a playboy, Claire knows that he is actually a smart person.

Squinting his eyes slightly, Claire suddenly had an absurd thought in his mind, did Jester also want to compete for the position of patriarch?

Is this... is this possible?Everyone knew very well that it was impossible for the old patriarch to succeed him no matter what!

Could it be that Jester has obtained the real will and has tampered with it... Claire's pupils shrank, and suddenly he had a bad feeling in his heart. For the first time, he realized that he had underestimated this playboy-like younger brother.

In the crowd, the smile on the corner of Mo Shaokun's mouth gradually froze when Jester stood up, and then he frowned slightly.

He has always felt that it is abnormal for Jester to give up the fight for the position of patriarch so easily. Now it seems that Jester has deceived everyone.

"I think we should look for the real will now, my dear brothers, what do you think?" Jester asked with a faint smile on his lips.

Harriman and the others looked at each other, and then he said: "Jester, stop making trouble, there is only one will."

"Really?" There was a strange smile on the corner of his mouth, and Jester continued: "Why don't we look for it? Are you worried about something? My dear brother?"

The crowd immediately chattered, and Baikal and Konga had a strange smile on their faces when they saw this situation.

Baikal said: "I think what Jester said makes sense, we should go and have a look."

"Yes, I think we did ignore it. It is impossible for my father to give such an important thing to Lawyer Cook and let him take it out of the manor." Konga also said.

They knew very well that Jester actually brought up this topic at this time, and it was obviously well prepared. Although the final position of patriarch still has nothing to do with them, since they have no hope for them, they can't let Harry Man and Claire for nothing!

Three of the five brothers expressed their support, and Harriman and Claire couldn't say anything.

The two looked at each other and nodded, "In that case, I respect your choice."

After finishing speaking, Harriman turned to all the guests and said, "I'm sorry, I think it may take a while, and you can continue to enjoy the delicious food and wine."

"Isn't it better to invite the guests to witness together?" Jester said.

Harriman frowned and said: "Jester, you just have this suspicion now, no one knows whether there is really a real will as you said, even if there is, we don't even know it will Where, do you want the guests to follow us around the castle without a clue?"

"My dear brother, you are thinking too complicatedly. It is impossible for father to misplace such important things. I think the most likely place is the safe behind father's mural. If there is nowhere, it may be true. I guessed wrong." Jester said indifferently.

Seeing what he said, Harriman gave him a deep look, then snorted coldly and said to the guests again: "If that's the case, I'll trouble you all to come with us."

A group of people went to the old patriarch's room in a mighty manner.

Mo Shaokun walked behind the crowd, his brows kept furrowed.

This Jester is not simple. No one expected that the most unlikely person would come out at the last moment and mess up the situation.

If I guessed right, the so-called real will should have Jester's name written on it, otherwise he wouldn't need to do these useless efforts at all.

There was a slight pause in his footsteps, and Mo Shaokun's eyes showed a little thought. Things were out of his control, and maybe it was time to make preparations.

"What's wrong?" Chu Huaisha asked a little strangely when he saw him stop.

Mo Shaokun forced a smile and said, "It's nothing, I'm going to the bathroom, you go up first."

After he finished speaking, he turned and left.

Chu Huaisha looked at his back, and didn't think too much about it, holding up the hem of his skirt with both hands, and followed the crowd up the stairs.

When he came to the bathroom, Mo Shaokun took out his mobile phone and dialed Yun Aijun's number.

"Hello, Shaokun."

"Brother Yun, get ready, we may have to evacuate tonight."

Yun Aijun on the other side of the phone was silent for a while, then nodded and said: "Okay, no problem, waiting for your signal."
