Chapter 1109 Half The Wealth
Grand Elder Elise Alstreim also acquiesced, "I accept the exchange..."
She was more than happy to buy her father a way out, and if possible, she wanted to spend her entire wealth to exchange but looking at Claire Alstreim, she knew that she shouldn’t push her luck.
Claire still possessed an indifferent expression on her face, but her lips couldn’t help but slightly curve.
Was it this easy to obtain half of their wealth?
’No, it was a good thing I demanded them to kowtow...’ She felt that having them be humbled had an advantageous effect.
Other than the presence of Ancestor Dian Alstreim, and without making them realize that they were completely in the wrong, she knew that this wouldn’t be possible.
"Ancestor?" She directed their acknowledgment and question.
Ancestor Dian Alstreim thought for a while before he nodded, "I approve."
"However, you three can decide between yourselves on what Claire Alstreim receives and what you two lose."
The three of them nodded their heads and looked at each other.
"Care to expound on the extent of your wealth so that I can take half from it?" Claire moved towards them.
She was unafraid that they would suddenly attack.
Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim inwardly scoffed at her guts before he took out a plethora of scrolls containing the deed of his assets. They floated around him, making many eyes pop open wide.
Within the people present, Elder Havle Alstreim’s eyes flashed with a bit of greed.
How much was their total value?
Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim opened his mouth, "These are..."
However, Claire raised her hand, stopping him.
"Explain these to me through soul transmission. That way, it would be faster."
Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim’s twitched, but he agreed with her. Indeed, using soul transmission to communicate would be faster as they could instantly understand the contents, unlike speaking through words.
While Claire and the two Grand Elders communicated, Edgar Alstreim looked completely floored as he saw what his daughter was capable of! She had said ’watch us’ to him, but he didn’t think that she would be this capable!
In a few seconds, Grand Elder Krax Alstreim joined their exchange. He confirmed that Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim and Grand Elder Elise Alstreim did indeed possess the ownership of these businesses, properties, and assets, which included many cultivation resources and zones.
He helped them estimate their value for a few minutes and confirmed the total value before halving it. One half remained with them, and the other half, which both Claire Alstreim and the two Grand Elders agreed upon to be exchanged, were transacted as compensation to lessen two thousand years of the sentence.
Both Grand Elder Krax Alstreim and Ancestor Dian Alstreim were present as witnesses for this exchange, so it could be said that Claire Alstreim successfully gained ownership of many businesses, properties, and assets that previously belonged to Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim and Grand Elder Elise Alstreim at this moment!
Claire finally possessed a full-fledged smile on her face, but it was still cold. It was as if her schemes run deep.N0v3lRealm was the platform where this chapter was initially revealed on N0v3l.B1n.
Did his mother just con them out of their wealth!? Not only did she con them to half-poverty, but she also made them kowtow and beg for forgiveness! Of course, it was possible because of the two deterrents known as the ’Ancestor’ and ’Dragon Queen’.
But it was still her who had done it! She had the guts to demand without consulting him!
"What about Nora Alstreim? What did she promise mother in exchange?" He asked in curiosity.
"She has already become my slave for a thousand years." Claire unsanctimoniously replied.
Davis raised a thumbs up but felt some pity for the innocent Nora Alstreim.
Imagine doing nothing but still gets framed by a trusted friend before becoming exploited by another trusted ’dead yet alive’ friend so as not to get their own grandfather and grandmother killed?
This was precisely Nora Alstreim.
In her matter, they were certainly the unjust people.
Just as he was about to say something, Claire spoke.
"But I don’t think Nora deserves such a treatment. After seeing her conduct, I think I’ll release her in... one or ten years."
Davis raised both of his hands and gave double thumbs-up, causing Claire to smilingly shake her head.
She didn’t feel sorry at all because she felt that these people deserved it.
For the grievances they caused to her entire family, killing wasn’t an exaggeration! Compared to that, letting them off with their properties and wealth transferred to her was indeed merciful.
This also served to boost her own family’s strength.
However, Davis still remained excited and flabbergasted.
He had sent a soul transmission to his mother at the time of the wealth transaction, telling her to acquire the Verdant Alstreim Treasure House! But, Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim refused, stating that it was his ancestor’s property.
Knowing that it was a failure, he sent her a soul transmission and told her to take the entire Spirit Attribute Sources Hall.
Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim shot a look at him and stared at him before somehow agreeing.
He didn’t know why but he could tell that it probably had something to do with Nora Alstreim!
Nevertheless, the Spirit Attribute Sources inside the Verdant Alstreim Treasure House belonged to him now! It belonged to his mother in name, but still... it technically belonged to him now as he knew that his mother would let him take anything from it.
’Spirit Attribute Sources... Here I come!’ Davis inwardly danced in joy.
Screw selling it to others! He was going to use them to strengthen himself and his own people. The first thing he would do is take them off the shelves by sealing the Spirit Attribute Sources Hall!
But before that...
"Father..." Claire called out, her melodious voice and her expression tinged with countless emotions as she looked at Edgar Alstreim!
Edgar Alstreim’s expression trembled as he wryly smiled at her victorious actions.
His daughter had truly come back!
