"Young man, Laura is no longer necessary for us." The old man in black robe responded with a sneer after hearing this, "Because there are two heirs in Laura's grandfather's will, and the first heir is naturally Lao La, we all know this, and the second in line of succession is Laura’s grandfather’s butler.”

"Moreover, now this steward has fallen into our hands and has been successfully controlled by us, so even if he dies here, we can still get this inheritance through this steward."

"So your bargaining chip has no way of swaying me."

After hearing this, the expression on Mr. Dou's face suddenly became extremely gloomy.

Huo Guang, who was on the side, did not show any panic and continued to talk: "You are right. According to you, Laura is indeed not necessary for you. But don't forget, I am The first thing I said is that I can save you a lot of trouble."

Huo Guang's words once again aroused the interest of the old man in black robe, so he waved his hand, indicating to Huo Guang to continue speaking.

"According to the inheritance rules of the United States, if the first-in-line heir dies during the inheritance, then the first suspect will definitely be the second-in-line heir, and the first person to be investigated will definitely be the second-in-line heir."

"Furthermore, the estate will be frozen during the investigation until the second in line of succession is cleared after an investigation."

"Having said that, I would like to ask you, do you know how long this investigation process will take?"

Having said this, Huo Guang had a faint smile on his face and looked at the old man in black robe.

"If you don't want to die, don't waste my time, let alone challenge my patience." The old man in black robe snorted coldly, his tone full of killing intent.

"Three months to half a year!"

"That's how long it takes to investigate!"

Feeling the killing intent in the black-robed old man's words, Huo Guang didn't dare to smile anymore and quickly gave the answer.

“In other words, if you don’t make a deal with me here, it will take at least three months for you to get Laura’s grandfather’s inheritance!”

"In contrast, as long as you choose to make a deal with me here, Laura will immediately sign the inheritance transfer agreement, and you will be able to get this inheritance tomorrow. Which one is more beneficial to you, I don't need to say it anymore. ?”

Huo Guang took his time and told his true bargaining chip in a persuasive and cogent manner, which was also the most effective bargaining chip for the old man in black robe.

After hearing this, the old man in black robe became obviously silent.

"Write the inheritance transfer agreement now and you will live."

After thinking for a while, the old man in black robe set his sights on Huo Guang and gave the answer.

There were two reasons for him to make this decision. First, what Huo Guang just said was true. If Laura really died here, it would indeed take a lot of time for them to inherit the inheritance through the housekeeper.

The second reason is because the old man in black robe is very aware of the importance of the golden cross among Laura's grandfather's inheritance. The sooner such a thing falls into their hands, the more at ease they will be. If it is delayed, it may change later.

"Laura, I know you are very reluctant, but now this result is the best for us. Think about it carefully, which is more important, money or life."

After getting the answer he wanted, Huo Guang breathed a sigh of relief, then turned to look at Laura and persuaded her seriously.

"I know, I understand."

"I would like to..."

Laura nodded with a livid face when she heard this.

"We need pen and paper."

Upon hearing this, Huo Guang turned to look at the old man in black robe and said.

After hearing this, the old man in black robe did not reply, but gently waved his sleeves and sent the banknotes on the side to Laura's hand.

After taking the pen and paper, Laura wrote the contents of the voluntary transfer of inheritance on the paper with a look of sadness and horror.

Seeing this scene, a sinister and sly smile appeared on the face of the old man in black robe.

Noticing the smile of the old man in black robe, Huo Guang's expression suddenly changed. Before he could remind him or make any reaction, the old man in black robe had already flashed and came to Laura in an instant, grabbing him. He held the other party's hand and avoided the agreement.

Seeing this scene, Mr. Dou turned pale!

At this point, everyone has guessed why the old man in black robe did this.
