At a glance from Cecilio, his subordinates immediately bent down and opened all the safes.
Everyone looked inside the box and saw antique jewelry, antique guns, and several exquisite daggers. Besides that, there were also some miscellaneous items, such as colorful marbles and old playing cards that had been out of print for decades.
Those little things must be the treasures in Edward's childhood memories.
After everyone had a clear look at the contents of the box, Cecilio spoke up and said, "Valjean and I grew up with our father and devoted our lives to the family. Therefore, I believe that Valjean and I should take 90% of our father's inheritance, and Hof should get 10%." After he finished speaking, he paused and moved his gaze to Han Zhan and Song Ci.
He asked Han Zhan and Song Ci: "Do you have any objections?"
Song Ci was about to say that she had no objection when she heard Cecilio say again: "Even if you have an opinion, keep it to yourself."
Song Dynasty Porcelain: "..."
The eldest brother is the eldest brother, arbitrary and domineering.
After dividing up the precious relics, Cecilio threw the deck of cards directly to Han Miao and the others, "Take it and play cards!" The children immediately picked up the cards on the ground and ran to the indoor fountain square to play cards, laughing.
Cecilio grabbed the small marbles again and said, "It's useless for you to keep these things. I'm taking them back." After Edward died, his body sank into the sea. Cecilio planned to throw these things into the sea as a kind of spiritual sustenance.
After dividing the inheritance, the subordinates took the empty box away.
Butler Cai came over with his servants, removed the cold coffee and cold tea in front of everyone, and replaced them with a hot cup.
Cecilio took a sip of his coffee, then thought of something, put the cup down and looked towards Valgen.
Valan was clearing up the inheritance he had received, calculating in his mind which items could be auctioned off to make money and which items would be suitable to give to Nan Yanyan as a collection.
"Agen."
Hearing Cecilio calling him, Agen divided the things he had cleared into two camps and then looked up at Cecilio. "Calling me?"
Nodding, Cecilio said: "Agen, I know that you have been jealous of me since you were a child, jealous that I received too much love and attention from my father." Cecilio took the initiative to bring up this matter, and everyone's expression was a little embarrassed.
The originally harmonious atmosphere suddenly became dull.
Su Huanyan secretly poked Cecilio on the back, reminding him not to bring up such a depressing topic on this day.
But Cecilio didn't stop talking. He said to Valanciunas, "There's a saying in China that's very true: in family education, it's hard to keep both children evenly balanced. I admit, my father completely tilted the balance in my favor."
At this point, he glanced at Han Zhan. "Since I was little, I've been his proudest heir. He gave me all the resources he could. I regret the injustice you suffered as children, but I won't apologize for it."
Upon hearing this, Valanciunas looked unhappy. He questioned Cecilio, "Do you think his preference for you is justified? Do we deserve to be bullied by him?"
Facing Agen's anger, Cecilio remained calm. "I wouldn't say it's right."
He laughed, lit a cigarette, and said as he smoked, "I have his favor, but I also bear his shackles. Valgen, Hof, you can leave Sicily, but I cannot. In this life, even if I die, I will stay on the land of Sicily."
"I paid the price for the favor I received."
Cecilio shed as much blood and tears as he received favoritism.
Therefore, he doesn't feel he needs to apologize to anyone.
Cecilio was born destined to take on Edward's business. The organization 'Sons of God' gave Cecilio supreme power, but also placed a heavy yoke on him.
He must continue to move forward with the 'Son of God'. He cannot fall. If he falls, countless families will be destroyed.
After hearing what Cecilio said, the indignation on Valjean's face instantly disappeared. He looked at Cecilio's tall and domineering figure and suddenly felt that this man's life was also very tiring.
"So, Valanciunas, my good brother." Cecilio had finished his cigarette. He crushed the glowing red cigarette butt with his fingers and threw it into the crystal ashtray.
After doing all this, he looked up at Valan who was sitting on the other side of the sofa and asked, "Could you please not take out your hatred for your father on me?"
A rare look of loneliness appeared on his cold, three-dimensional face. "After father died, I only have you two brothers left." Valan resented him, and Han Zhan was distant from him. Every Christmas, when the family reunited, he would feel lonely.
Cecilio's words made Han Zhan and Arang brothers feel sad.
Han Zhan suddenly said: "This Christmas, our whole family will go to Italy."
Cecilio's eyes lit up.
Argen rubbed his hands on his thighs and said awkwardly, "Well, our Yanyan hasn't been to Italy yet. This Christmas, I want to take her there to see it."
The three brothers finally reconciled.
Song Ci and Su Huanyan looked at each other and smiled in tacit understanding.
Valan handed the items he was going to auction to Butler Cai and said to him, "Butler Cai, find a trustworthy auction house to help me auction these things. I need money."
He was serious about opening an orphanage.
Butler Cai carefully held those things and quickly went to find something to pack them up.
