She Became Rich After Divorce

Chapter 504: The True Content of the Will

As Sophie read the contents of the will, Mr. Todd, who was sitting helplessly in his chair, shed a silent tear. A complex expression emerged in his hollow, lifeless eyes.

If he could go back in time, would he regret his decision then? The answer remained elusive.

In the densely packed crowd, someone suddenly made a move, slowly lowering the camera from his shoulder. He took off his blonde wig and removing his oversized black hat to reveale a remarkably handsome face.

Standing among the bustling crowd, Iker stood out like a crane amidst a flock of chickens. Having retired from the battlefield and been through the trials of real combat, the eagle with broken wings had risen once again, ready to soar to greater heights. Iker was that eagle.

He stood up, firmly planting his feet on the ground. As he advanced, everyone couldn't help but harbor the same thought- the true glory of the Todd family had risen!

Approaching Davon, he suddenly extended a foot, landing a kick on Davon's abdomen. Davon winced in pain, grunting and bending over, his eyes burning with fury. "I knew your leg had healed long ago, Iker. You really put on quite a performance," he sneered.

"Beast! How could you lay a hand on Erica and Karina! They..." one is your woman, and the other is your own daughter! Iker's voice was unusually cold; had it not been for his composure, he would have vented his fury upon Davon.

Tauntingly dismissive of Erica and Karina's deaths, Davon showed no remorse. He chuckled, selfishly replying, "No one can stop me from advancing to a higher position. They are just pawns." Before he finished speaking, Iker unleashed a powerful punch at Davon's face, exerting all his strength. Davon, leading a pampered life, was ill-prepared for such force.

Thalia, pained for her son, despite being bound, furiously lunged forward, attempting to headbutt Iker. "You mongrel! How dare you strike my son! I'll fight you to the end!"

Iker gracefully evaded her, and she stumbled into the table, her forehead hitting the edge. The impact was directly opposite Kai. There was a loud crack. Bright red blood splattered like a small stream over her fair face, some warm droplets even landing on Kai's face.

Struggling to speak, she astonishingly contemplated killing Iker at this critical moment. Her wicked intentions simultaneously inspired terror and deep admiration for the greatness of maternal love. As a woman and a wife, Thalia had undoubtedly failed, but as a mother, she was just as great as countless other mothers in the world.

Thalia collapsed to the ground, her weakened and dazed gaze fixed on Davon, dragging herself a few steps along the ground. Her delicate hand, suspended in mid-air, was stained with crimson. She sought to touch her beloved child for the last time. "Davon, I'm sorry... couldn't help you... killed... killed them!"

"... Erica and the girl, I... I killed them. Let my son go." With her last word, her hand slipped to the ground.

"Mom!" Davon roared loudly. His once handsome, fair face now contorted horribly, his eyes turning a bloodshot red. "It's all because of you. Since that's the case, you should all go to hell with her!"

What was he planning to do? The nearest police officer couldn't react in time as Davon quickly snatched his gun. With both hands raised, the barrel was aimed directly at Iker. "Ah!"NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

The reporters below panicked, screaming and fleeing in frenzy, creating chaos. Gordon's face turned pale, urgently instructing his people to evacuate and appease the crowd.

His gaze fixed on Davon, he tried to reason with him. "Master Davon, don't make things worse. If you kill Iker, it will only add to your sins!"

"What does that matter? I'm already doomed. Isn't it better to drag a major general down with me and my mom!"

He had descended into madness and wouldn't listen to Gordon's words. Meanwhile, Iker, facing imminent danger, remained calm and composed, "Tell me, what is your relationship with TWILIGHT?"

Faced with impending death, he was

more interested in TWILIGHT than his own fate, causing Davon to begrudgingly admire his resilience may as well tell you; I am a partner with TWILIGHT. They helped me establish myself in the business world, and I helped them launder money. Let me remind you, no one should try to take down TWILIGHT. You-can't afford to provoke them!"

While speaking, he primed the trigger. In a split second, Iker rushed towards him, his movements too swift for onlookers to discern.

Just when Iker believed he would meet his demise, Davon suddenly changed the direction of the gun, triggering it.

"No!" While Kai couldn't see what was happening, the sharp whistle of the bullet pierced through the air. He realized the person Davon wanted to kill was himself.

With a bitter smile, he thought, 'I

have remorse for many people, but I have never treated Thalia and Davon badly. So why did Davon hate me so much? Perhaps Kai would never know the answer in his life. He

closed his eyes, resigned to his doom.

Many people, frightened, covered their ears, fearing that they would be

implicated Time froze for a

moment. The airborne dust seemed suspended in place. Just then, a black figure suddenly rushed past them, emanating the scent of roses.
