“Mr. Morgan, oh Mr. Morgan, 1 thought you had some evidence ready. So you’re just spouting nonsense here!”

Seeing that Thomas couldn’t produce any evidence, Yannick sneered at Thomas disdainfully.

Thomas suddenly glanced at Yannick, then said in a low voice, “Yannick, don’t be too happy too soon. You can’t own things that don’t belong to you…”

“Mr. Morgan, what do you mean? I don’t understand!” Yannick replied with a smile.

Thomas ignored Yannick. Instead, he quietly took out his mobile phone and sent the message he had prepared earlier.

After sending the text message, Thomas returned to Connor’s side and whispered to Connor, “Mr. McDonald, I’m sorry. I didn’t think it through just now!”

When Connor heard this, he turned to look at Thomas and whispered, “Actually, you don’t have to help me. You’ll only implicate yourself!”

“I just can’t accept that Yannick and his men took away the inheritance left by the former chairman!” Thomas gritted his teeth and said.

Connor looked at Thomas beside him and sighed helplessly. Then, he said seriously, “No matter what, 1 have to thank you!”

Thomas was stunned when he heard this. Then, he slowly said, “Mr. McDonald, you don’t have to worry. 1 still have one last trump card that I haven’t used yet. We might not lose today…” Connor looked at Thomas, not knowing what to say.

When Jonas saw that Thomas did not speak, he said softly, “Mr. Morgan, since you can’t prove that Mr. Lee framed Mr. McDonald, nor can you prove that someone else deliberately framed Mr. McDonald, our lawyers will not accept what you said just now. The arbitration will proceed as before. Our lawyers believe that Mr. Connor has lost the qualification to inherit the inheritance from now on. The new heir will be Mr. Lee…”

“Wait a minute!”

At this moment, Thomas spoke up again.

When Jonas heard this, he looked at Thomas and asked with a puzzled expression, “Mr. Morgan, is there anything else you want to say?”

“Give me an hour. Can the result of the arbitration be announced in an hour?” Thomas asked Jonas anxiously.

“Why? Why should it be announced an hour later?” Before Jonas said anything, Yannick shouted.

“Because there’s still a very important person who hasn’t appeared, 1 hope the lawyers can give us another hour. I will not interfere with the lawyers’ judgment if that person doesn’t appear after an hour!” Thomas knew very well that everything would be settled once Jonas announced the results of the arbitration.

He could not change this outcome even if he could reach the heavens. Therefore, he was still helping Connor continue to stall for time!

“There’s still an important person who isn’t here?” After Jonas heard this, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he asked Thomas, puzzled, “Mr. Morgan, who exactly is this important person?”

Thomas stood there and hesitated, then said, “The person I’m talking about is the person involved last night, Ms. Freya Phillips!”

When Connor heard Thomas’s words, he stood up and looked at Thomas incredulously!

Only now did Connor realize that the last trump card Thomas talked about was Freya!

“Freya Phillips?” A trace of doubt flashed in Jonas’ eyes. He then looked at Thomas and asked, “Mr. Morgan, is there any point in calling Ms. Phillips over now?”

“Of course!” Thomas quickly replied.

“Mr. Lozano, they’re deliberately stalling for time. There’s no need for us to continue waiting!” Yannick didn’t intend to give Connor any chance, so he urged Jonas.

“Uhm…”

When Jonas was faced with this situation, he became a little awkward. For a moment, he didn’t know how to deal with it.

“Mr. Lozano, don’t forget that Ms. Phillips is also one of the heirs to the former chairman’s inheritance. Who would have inherited the inheritance if it wasn’t for the former chairman changing his mind?” Thomas also said to Jonas solemnly.

After hearing Thomas’s words, Jonas hesitated and then said, “Alright, then 1’11 give you another hour. I’ll announce the outcome of the arbitration in an hour!”

“Mr. Lozano…” Yannick shouted as he was unwilling to give up.

“Mr. Lee, the purpose of establishing our legal team is to ensure that Mr. Steven Lee’s will is fully respected. Therefore, no matter what happens, Mr. Steven Lee’s will must be the basis. Ms. Phillips is also one of the heirs to the estate, so 1 think it’s understandable to give Ms. Phillips a chance to be here!” Jonas replied softly.

Hearing that, Yannick didn’t dare to say anything more.

However, there was a hint of anger in his eyes because he never thought that Thomas would go against him in every way.

Connor, on the other hand, was confused. He walked to Thomas and asked softly, “Thomas, the trump card you mentioned can’t be Freya, right?”

“Yes, I’ve already explained the situation to Ms. Phillips yesterday and wanted to invite her to help you clarify things in front of the lawyers. However, Ms. Phillips wanted to consider it. I’m not sure if Ms. Phillips will really come over now. I’ve already sent a message to her just now. If she doesn’t appear in an hour, she will never come over again!” Thomas explained softly.

“But why did you say that Freya is also Steven’s successor?” Connor looked at Thomas and continued to ask.

“Mr. McDonald, back then, the former chairman was indebted to not only the McDonald Family but also Ms. Phillips. Originally, the former chairman planned to let you both inherit his inheritance together. However, he changed his mind later. He left behind such a rule that you must marry Ms. Phillips to prevent the two of you from fighting over the inheritance. The former chairman was trying to matchmake you and Ms. Phillips…” Thomas didn’t want to hide it anymore and went straight to the point.

“I see!” Connor nodded in realization. He then turned to look at the entrance of the conference room.. He was not sure if Freya would come today!
