Nicole frowned. \u201cAdriana!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cDon\u2019t yell so loud. I\u2019m deaf in one ear, not both,\u201d Adriana said as she held Curtis\u2019s hand and tried to walk out.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Nicole pressed aggressively forward, refusing to let them leave. \u201cThis is my birthday party. If I want to throw you out, it\u2019s gonna happen. The guests outside are all rich and powerful. Everyone\u2019s watching! Let\u2019s see if you can handle that kind of shame.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
After saying that, Nicole turned to the bodyguards at the door. \u201cThrow the two of them out!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The guards hesitated. \u201cThey\u2019re guests invited by Mr. Jeremy.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Nicole completely lost it. \u201cToday is my birthday! Grandpa did all of this for me! I\u2019m telling you to throw them out, right now!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m looking forward to seeing if you can keep up this passionate speech later,\u201d Curtis said with a faint smile.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMs. Nicole, Mr. Jeremy is looking for you. The reporters have all arrived,\u201d Justin said in a low voice at the door, cutting off Nicole\u2019s outburst.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Nicole snorted and shot Curtis and Adriana a provocative look. \u201cOnce Grandpa announces that I\u2019m the Bartons\u2018 only heir, I\u2019ll kick you out in front of everyone. If you have any sense, you\u2019d better leave now.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re not leaving. Why skip such a great show?\u201d Adriana clung to Curtis\u2019s arm, deliberately acting spoiled to annoy them.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Danielle let out a cold laugh. \u201cAdriana, you really don\u2019t know your place. You\u2019ll regret this.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Danielle left arrogantly with Nicole, and Natasha and the others followed.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana excitedly tugged Curtis along as well.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Time to watch the show.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the party hall, Jeremy had invited everyone of influence in the business world today. The setup was grand and flashy.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Mainstream media and reporters from both Harborton and Haldoria were all present, waiting inside the venue.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Jeremy smiled as he chatted with a few old friends, while Chandler could barely suppress the grin on his face.\u00a0<\/p>\n
They had schemed and plotted for so many years. This was the day they\u2019d been waiting for.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He even thought that once Jeremy announced Nicole as the heir today, he could get rid of the old man that very night.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDad, Grandpa invited so many people,\u201d Danielle said with a lifted smile. \u201cHow grand.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Chandler sneered and spoke bitterly. \u201cThat fossil only ever acknowledged that one son of his, so naturally, he only recognizes Nicole as his granddaughter. Too bad for him. He calculated everything except one thing. The real Nicole has been dead for a long time. The Nicole standing here now is just our puppet.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Danielle smiled smugly as well.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. Jeremy, are you announcing the Bartons\u2018 heir today?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHow would you evaluate Ms. Nicole?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The reporters fired questions one after another.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Jeremy only smiled and said nothing.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Justin escorted Nicole and Danielle over. He then stood guard beside Jeremy like a bodyguard, watching the surroundings closely.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Today, Jeremy and Justin were fully prepared.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Nicole secretly smiled in triumph and walked shyly up to Jeremy. \u201cGrandpa\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Danielle stood beside Chandler, watching the reporters snap photos like crazy.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. Jeremy, you\u2019ve clearly shown favoritism toward Ms. Nicole. Does that mean you don\u2019t consider Ms. Danielle your granddaughter at all?\u201d one bold reporter asked directly into the\u00a0<\/p>\n
mic.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Danielle\u2019s expression darkened instantly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Jeremy spoke in a deep voice, \u201cChandler and Danielle are not members of the Bartons and have nothing to do with the Bartons\u2018 assets. The Barton last name they use was changed\u00a0<\/p>\n

without my permission. Before they were allowed into the Bartons, they clearly signed agreements and made promises that they would never covet a single cent of the Bartons property.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Saying this in front of the reporters completely cut off Chandler and Danielle\u2019s retreat.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Chandler\u2019s face turned frighteningly ugly. He wanted to speak, but after considering it, he held back.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the end, once it landed in Nicole\u2019s hands, it would still be his.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Danielle quickly grabbed Chandler\u2019s wrist. \u201cDad, endure it for now. Focus on the prize\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Chandler snorted and said nothing more.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. Jeremy, are you announcing Ms. Nicole as the Bartons\u2018 heir today?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The reporters asked again.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Jeremy nodded and looked at the reporters and all the elite guests present. \u201cToday, I invited everyone here to ask the media and my friends in the industry to bear witness. All of the Bartons\u2018 assets, shares, and everything else belong to my granddaughter, Nicole.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Nicole looked excitedly at Danielle.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She was finally about to soar and become someone important.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve already drafted my will and completed the asset notarization and organization. All Barton Group shares will be held temporarily by Justin. Once Nicole can stand on her own\u2026\u201d Jeremy subconsciously glanced at Adriana, who was quietly watching the drama in the crowd. Everything will belong to my true granddaughter, Nicole.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The moment Jeremy said this, Chandler, Danielle, and Nicole\u2019s expressions all turned sour.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Why should Justin be holding the shares?\u00a0<\/p>\n
