Chapter 531: Chapter 531: Shocking News—Julian Lawson Transfers Assets to Seraphina
Jasper Ford held a food box packed to take back for Silas Hawthorne and Serena Sterling.
At this moment, he felt a bit bewildered.
Just a simple meal, and so many people were blocking the place.
Jasper Ford exchanged a glance with the people around him, then chose to remain silent.
They simply let the security clear a path and swiftly left the spot.
This made everyone even more curious.
Why are so many people gathered here?
They were mostly prominent figures from various families, all three major Aeston powerhouses had representatives, Xander Linton was also present, but Silas Hawthorne and Julian Lawson were absent.
And naturally, there was no sign of Serena Sterling.
The crowd buzzed with speculation.
The hospital was also surrounded by reporters, but there were always bodyguards on the premises, so these people couldn’t get in.
Moreover, they dared not act rashly; if they really delayed anyone’s treatment, they couldn’t handle the fury of the patient’s family.
Some attempted to contact Silas Hawthorne, seeking specific information.
But at this moment, Silas Hawthorne had no mind to deal with these matters.
After Serena Sterling fell asleep again, he contacted top rehabilitation teams domestically and internationally and also learned a lot from Ethan Lynch and Bianca Lynch.
Serena Sterling’s detailed physical examination is scheduled for tomorrow; as of now, everything seems fine, but many things require specific results to ascertain.
All he wants now is for Serena Sterling to recover promptly.
Online.
A host of magnates went online one after another.
Prominent figures from the Lawson Family, Ford Family, Lloyd Family, Quentin Family, Zink Family, and others all logged on.
The first to speak was Jude Chaucer.
He said, "I heard Serena Sterling woke up; is this true?"
Zink glanced around, then said, "Clara Huxley seems to be offline."
Beside Zink was a new potted plant that Serena Sterling once specially sent over.
But he had never deliberately mentioned it.
"But it makes sense; if Serena Sterling really woke up, she should be at the hospital now."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
After all, many of them were at the wedding a year ago, and they were well aware of Clara Huxley’s guilt.
If Serena Sterling woke up, Clara Huxley would surely be the first to visit her.
Finally, Percival Ford spoke up.
"I asked my third son," Percival Ford said, "Serena Sterling has indeed woken up, but her condition is unstable; there may be further examinations and treatments needed."
Everyone nodded.
Over the past year, they had held several such meetings, both online and offline.
The situation in Aeston had undergone significant changes over the past year.
Among the three major powerhouses, there was a subtle and inexplicable link.
This miraculous link, everyone knew, was because of Serena Sterling.
This time, Old Master Ford glanced at Old Master Lawson and asked, "Mr. Lawson, what are your plans?"
Caleb Lawson’s health had slightly improved over the past year; although not as good as when Serena Sterling was by his side, overall, his condition was much more stable.
"With Serena Sterling waking up, we both know what she aims to do next," Percival Ford continued, gripping the head of his cane. "Recently, matters on the MKK side have been complicated too. It’s time for the Lawson Family to make a decision."
No one else spoke, but many had their thoughts.
Serena Sterling’s intentions and goals had always been very clear.
Revitalize the Sheridan Family and uncover the truth behind Evan Sheridan’s death.
Caleb Lawson coughed twice, leaning against his chair, he said, "I’m old now; the Lawson Family is not for me to decide."
After a brief pause, he continued, "Let’s see what Julian thinks."
And this was basically a clear statement.
Because Julian Lawson was certain to side with Serena Sterling.
Beside him, Jude Chaucer glanced at Percival Ford, saying, "Mr. Ford, what about your family?"
Zink also said, "Your second grandson has been sent abroad; now who do you favor, the eldest or the third?"
Percival Ford took a sip of tea, smiling mysteriously, "Zink, take a guess."
Zink’s face turned dark; he had always been the one pulling tricks, but now this shameless guy was teasing him.
Huffing, Zink went off to tend to his plants, while Percival Ford looked at the others.
"The Quentin Family has a contract with Aeon," said Matriarch Quentin, dressed in a vintage cheongsam. "Over the past year, Aeon has performed very well; our collaboration has been very pleasant."
Jude Chaucer immediately said, "I’m just here to munch popcorn, neutral! Haha."
The Sutton Family said, "We’re preparing for Gigi’s wedding."
Mr. Lloyd shook his head, not intending to make a statement.
In short, the big shots present all had their own thoughts, and even if they spoke, they wouldn’t say it explicitly, leaving themselves a backdoor.
But everyone knew, with Serena Sterling’s awakening, the structure of Aeston might undergo a complete change.
The Sheridan Family might really rise again.
...
Three days.
In three days, various shocking rumors flew around Aeston.
Each one was highly startling.
The entire Aeston seemed to suddenly become active because of some unknown reason.
The most shocking among them was that Julian Lawson had transferred part of his assets to Seraphina’s name.
"Isn’t Seraphina the daughter of Serena Sterling and Silas Hawthorne? Why did Julian Lawson transfer his assets to her?"
"These aren’t just monetary assets; they include stocks, options, important properties in Aeston and overseas core regions!"
"I heard they initially planned to give Seraphina half of the family property, but later they only accepted a portion, leaving the rest untouched."
"I always heard Julian Lawson adored Seraphina; now it seems, Seraphina truly deserves her title as Aeston’s little princess!"
"Yes, over the past year, Silas Hawthorne has always taken Seraphina to various events, and Serena Sterling’s belongings went to her, as well as Silas Hawthorne’s, stating she’s the heir."
"Jasper Ford has also always pampered Seraphina!"
"She truly is a little princess!"
"You need to see who Seraphina’s parents are."
...
While there was a lot of gossip outside, the hospital was busy as well.
Over these three days, Serena Sterling underwent thorough examinations; using the comprehensive results, they formulated a rehabilitation plan.
The day after that, Jude Chaucer came to see Serena Sterling to discuss Julian Lawson’s proposal.
Seraphina was with Serena Sterling at that time.
"Mom," Seraphina looked up at Serena Sterling.
Serena Sterling thought for a while and said, "Let’s keep part of it."
Serena Sterling looked at the long list of items and selected a few.
Jude Chaucer hesitated somewhat.
"He will agree," Serena Sterling said, "don’t worry."
The two had worked together for a long time and shared a mutual understanding.
Jude Chaucer then nodded and turned to handle the other procedures.
The hospital room was left with only Serena Sterling and Seraphina.
Serena Sterling looked at the little sweetheart in her arms, her eyes full of joy.
She previously worried that Seraphina, being held captive by Preston Langley and being injured with a weapon, would suffer psychological trauma, but now it seems Seraphina is very strong.
