Chapter 395: Chapter 395: Do You Want to Swallow the Rong Family’s Wealth Alone?

"Do we need to find his body to confirm that he is dead? He went missing after an accident at sea, and anyone would assume that he couldn’t have survived. Therefore, I can go to the court immediately and request a declaration of his death."

Lin Xinlan’s eyes widened in shock, "What do you mean?!"

The man said indifferently, "It’s quite simple. If his body isn’t found in a few days, I can apply to the court to declare him dead. Then, there will be only me left in the Rong Family. Do you understand what I’m saying?"

Lin Xinlan looked at him in shock, asking angrily:

"Are you trying to monopolize the Rong Family’s wealth?! Rong Mingyan, aren’t you part of the Mafia, with great power? I don’t think you lack money, so why are you so eager to lay claim to this estate?!"

Rong Mingyan laughed heartily as if she had said something hilarious.

"True, I am part of the Mafia, and I certainly don’t lack money. But do you know how much profit Shengjue brings in each year? If its annual profit could allow one to live a life of luxury for more than a dozen generations, do you think no one would be tempted?"

Lin Xinlan suddenly realized and asked incredulously:

"You first murdered Master Rong, then you harmed Shaoze, and even killed my unborn child, not just for revenge, but also for inheritance, right?! Because with them dead, you would be the only one to inherit the Rong Family’s fortune!"

Rong Mingyan raised an eyebrow and nodded in appreciation: "Smart. You truly deserve to be the woman Shaoze fancied, to have thought of this."

Lin Xinlan wanted to say that even if the court declared Shaoze dead, his estate would first be inherited by the lady of the house, not by him.

But she held back.

She feared that if she spoke out, Rong Mingyan would harm the lady of the house.

Yet, if she had thought of this, hadn’t Rong Mingyan considered it?

Was he confident about securing Shaoze’s inheritance?

Doubt flashed in Lin Xinlan’s eyes as she questioned, "Rong Mingyan, what other schemes do you have up your sleeve? I’m telling you, if you dare to lay a finger on the lady, I will never let you off the hook!"

Rong Mingyan’s eyes flickered with surprise, and he asked with interest, "And how would you deal with me?"

"It’s none of your business. In any case, I will not allow you to hurt the lady!"

Knowing how much Shaoze loved his mother, the least she could do for him was to ensure his mother’s safety.

"Haha..." Rong Mingyan stood up laughing and left without saying anything more.

The sound of his laughter left Lin Xinlan feeling increasingly uneasy.

Rong Mingyan was intent on possessing Shengjue; he certainly wouldn’t let off the lady of the house...

But she was powerless to do anything at the moment, and could only watch and wait, hating the feeling of passivity.

Lin Xinlan didn’t tell Rong’s mother about Rong Mingyan’s intentions; even if she had, it would only have added to her worries.

Half a month had passed, and the people the Rong Family sent to the United States to retrieve the body searched the sea for half a month to no avail; they hadn’t found Shaoze’s body.

The United States police said that Shaoze must have sunk to the sea floor and become fish food, and they stopped the search, directly determining that he was dead.

When Rong’s mother heard the news, she was so distraught that she fainted.

Rong Guangguo’s health deteriorated further, and he was so weak that he couldn’t even speak.

Seeing the feigned sorrow on Rong Mingyan’s face, she felt so disgusted she wanted to vomit.

This man was too hypocritical and despicable!

After Rong’s mother woke up, she began to cry again.
