Chapter 1201: Chapter 1205: An Extraordinary Woman Chapter 1201: Chapter 1205: An Extraordinary Woman Zhu Xiaorong heaved a sigh, “I’ve heard that Mr. Wilson is worth 160 million US dollars, so this fifty million donation is really just a drop in the bucket for him.”
Xia Yangyang furrowed her brow, “You’re not talking about the world dia mogul Mr. Wilson, are you?”
Zhu Xiaorong replied, “That’s him. He passed away and his children and wife went to court sixteen tis over the inheritance dispute. At the ti, dia outlets around the world were almost all reporting on this.”
Xia Yangyang did hear about that incident at the ti.
But back then, Xia Yangyang had just returned and was entangled in many matters in Beijing.
She had no interest in keeping up with the gossip of the elite upper class.
Nevertheless, Xia Yangyang generally knew that Mr. Wilson had died of a cerebral hemorrhage, leaving behind a vast inheritance. Allegedly, there was also a will, and amazingly, the will left all his assets to his young wife of less than three years, leaving not a penny to his six children.
By the way, Mr. Wilson was eighty-four years old at that ti and had been married twice before.
However, at the age of eighty, he announced his marriage to his Chinese assistant.
But the marriage was kept low-key and was not exposed.
The whole world was guessing who the new Mrs. Wilson was, but no one knew. They only knew she was a young woman of Chinese descent.
In the following four years, Mr. Wilson truly kept his trophy wife hidden away, keeping her very well concealed.
He never once brought her to any public event.
But according to people in the circle,
Mr. Wilson was extrely generous to his young bride.
He gave her shares in several dia companies.
Of course, such a marriage wasn’t held in high regard by outsiders.
Everyone was more impressed by the tactics of this third Mrs. Wilson.
Marrying a man who could be her grandfather while still so young—if not for coveting money, status, and property, what else could be her motive?
Mr. Wilson had always been a legend in the industry, even teased by his own dia as “failing to preserve his integrity in his later years.”
But this didn’t stop Mrs. Wilson from wielding significant power under Mr. Wilson’s reputation.
It’s said she’s now the major shareholder of several dia outlets in the United States, and no one should underestimate her.
Of course, the most eye-opening was the inheritance dispute.
Mr. Wilson’s six children accused her of forging the will, even alleging murder.
For a ti, this woman was thrust into the eye of the storm.
However, in the end, by her own efforts, she defeated all six, securing the entirety of Mr. Wilson’s estate.
Undoubtedly, she owed it to the outstanding legal team she hired.
Zhu Xiaorong remarked, “Do you know how formidable this woman is? They say at that ti, she was cornered by those six children, nearly left with nothing, but at the last mont, she turned the tables by bribing all of their lawyers. It’s said the price was half of Mr. Wilson’s inheritance, that is, eight billion US dollars. Ordinary people don’t possess such boldness. It is because of this battle that everyone has a newfound respect for this seemingly delicate Chinese woman, and her tactics are simply reminiscent of Thatcher.”
Xia Yangyang said, “Okay, enough gossiping, aren’t you going to be late?”
Zhu Xiaorong hastily checked the ti.
Oh no.
The donation ceremony was at one in the afternoon.
Unknowingly, it was already twelve fifty.
She was about to be late.
Zhu Xiaorong hurriedly grabbed her cara and ran off.
Xia Yangyang shook her head with a smile.
She was always like this, once she got caught up in gossip, she would forget all about the ti.
Xia Yangyang didn’t take Zhu Xiaorong’s words too seriously.
She just busied herself with her own matters.
Until Xia Yangyang received a phone call.
