“All the accounts frozen?”
Upon hearing Michael s words, Connor’s expression immediately turned ugly.
Although he knew that after revealing his identity in front of Freya, Yannick would definitely use this against him.
But he thought that even if Yannick had already taken action, the lawyers responsible for managing the late chairman’s estate had not arrived yet, and no one had notified him that he had lost the eligibility to inherit the estate. How could his accounts be frozen?
He took a deep breath and asked in a deep voice, “Michael, what’s going on?”
“Mr. Connor, I’m not sure. But this morning, Mr. Thomas personally called and instructed me to freeze your account!” Michael replied in a low voice.
“Thomas froze my account?”
Connor took a deep breath and said in a low voice, “Alright, I know what’s going on. That will be all for now!”
After saying this, he hung up the phone directly.
“Connor, what’s going on?!” Chloe asked anxiously.
After all, they had already offended all the customers, and if Connor had any problems and didn’t buy the property at this time, she might get into big trouble.
“I don’t know what’s going on either, but don’t worry, let me make a phone call!” He took out his phone and walked quickly towards the exit of the sales office.
“Connor, why are you still pretending? Weren’t you going to buy all the houses here? Why aren’t you buying now?” Cindy sneered when she saw him about to leave.
“Shut your mouth, or I’ll throw you out!” He turned his head, glared a ther fiercely, and scolded in a cold tone.
“Do you dare?”
She shouted, then stepped forward and continued, “Others don’t know your identity, but I do. You’re just a poor loser who delivers takeout. What are you pretending to be a rich heir for? You just think the female manager looks pretty and want to fool her into sleeping with you, don’t you?”
“Get lost!”
At this point, Connor was not in the mood to continue arguing with her. He directly pushed her away, then walked away quickly.
In no time, he walked out of the showroom under the gaze of everyone, then took out his phone and dialed Thomas’ number.
“Ring, ring…11
After two rings, Thomas answered the call and asked, “Mr. Connor, is there something you need?”
“Thomas, did you instruct someone to freeze my account? Didn’t you say I’m still the heir?” Connor asked in a low voice.
“Mr. Connor, I’m not the one who froze your account. It’s the old chairman’s legal team!”
Thomas explained helplessly and then continued, “Now, the legal team is flying to Porthampton. They will probably arrive in a few hours. However, before that, they need to calculate all the expenses after you inherit the inheritance. Once they determine that you are not qualified to inherit the inheritance, you will need to return all the expenses. That’s why the legal team instructed the finance department to freeze your account so that they can calculate how much you have spent during this period of time! ”
Connor was stunned when he heard Thomas’ words.
“So you’re saying that I can’t spend a single cent now?”
He gritted his teeth and asked in a low voice.
“Mr. Connor, if you are short of money now, I can use my private account to transfer some to you, but the amount can’t be too big. If it’s too big, the finance department will find out!” Thomas explained.
“Is one billion dollars considered a lot?”
“Uh…”
Thomas was speechless when he heard that.
“Forget it, 1 don’t want the money!”
Connor shouted in frustration and then continued, “By the way, did you just say that the lawyers are already here?”
“Yes, they’ll probably arrive at my company in two hours. Yannick and the others should be on their way too. They’re here to decide whether you can inherit the inheritance or not!” Thomas said.
When Connor heard this, he could not help but take a deep breath. He did not expect the lawyers to arrive so quickly.
“Mr. Connor, there’s one more thing I need to remind you of. If you lose the right to inherit the inheritance this time, then all the money you spent during this period of time will have to be repaid…”
“What if I don’t have the money to repay it?” Connor was stunned for a moment and asked.
“If you don’t have the money to repay it, you can also take out the things you bought previously as collateral. After all, the bank has a record of every sum of money you spend. To put it bluntly, if you really lose the right to inherit the inheritance, then everything you had before will have to be returned!” Thomas continued to explain.
After Connor heard his words, he was extremely speechless. He did not know that there was such a rule.
Since that was the case, even if he bought all these houses now, it wouldn’t mean a thing. After all, they will eventually be taken back.
“Do I need to come over and see you later?” Connor hesitated for a moment and asked in a low voice.
“It would be better if you come over. That way, you can explain to the lawyers why you exposed your identity. Maybe the legal team will handle the matter with some discretion and give you a chance! ” Thomas replied in a low voice.
“What do you think is the probability of me inheriting the estate?” He quickly asked as he felt there was a glimmer of hope.
“Less than one percent,” Thomas replied with a serious tone.
“Then it s basically over! ” Zhang Feng’s hope was instantly shattered, and he said in a low voice, “Okay, I’ll come over to see you now. Even if it’s only one percent, I still want to give it a try.”
“Okay,” Thomas replied and then hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Connor turned around and glanced at the people in the showroom. He had originally planned to show off today, but he didn’t expect it to turn into such a mess.
He took a deep breath and then walked inside.
He felt that no matter what, he had to explain these things to Chloe today, otherwise, it would seem quite rude.
As Cindy saw Connor return to the showroom, she immediately spoke in a sarcastic tone, “Connor, you’re back? Where’s your ten billion? Hurry up and show it to everyone!”
He glared at her expressionlessly, then walked up to Chloe and said in a low voice, “Chloe, I’m sorry. There’s been an issue with my account. 1 may not be able to buy the houses….”
