While Memory Loss
8. The Will Reading
On the other hand, the Ridsyi family home.
The entire Ridsyi family was currently gathered in the living room listening to the lawyer read out the will
Ansanay's grandfather had only two children, Harial's first child and Herman's second. Both have four grandchildren.
The first grandson named Adrian Ridsyi the first son of Herman with his wife, Selena. The second grandson named Arfan Ridsyi Herman's second son with a celebrity who was with him one night because of drunkenness. The third grandson was Adler Hilman Ansanay Ridsyi Harial's only son. Adler's name, which was longer than all the grandchildren, was taken by Ansanay's grandfather. Asgar Ridsyi was the third son of Herman of Selena.
"Before reading this will, there is something I want to tell you first." The lawyer said as he glanced at the Ridsyi 11 family member who was in front of him.
"The late Mr. Ansanay had previously advised that 5% of his property would be donated to orphanages, mosques, and schools. He entrusted this to the main heirs in order to be implemented properly," the lawyer continued.
All the family members agreed.
The lawyer then opened the file in his hand and began to read the contents of the will.
"The total assets owned by the deceased were worth 350 trillion rupiah which included the company AR Company Group, oil palm plantations, coal mines, and others, some shares of various companies that are not included in the AR Company Group, an island, realestat in the form of several houses and apartments spread in various downtown areas, 20 units of cars from several brands, .... All shares of the Group's AR companies, estates, mines, islands, and main houses were given to the main heir, Adler Hilman Ansanay Ridsyi."
"What'sthis? why did all the inheritance fall into his hands? Adrian is the first grandson supposed to be Adrian who inherits the company!" Selena, Herman's wife and Adrian's mother screamed dissatisfied at the lawyer's reading.
"Also Herman and Harial were his biological children. Why is the company not going to leave it to them? Why go straight to Adler?" selena was not left thinking about the decision.
Herman, Adrian, and Asgar frowned, annoyed, and disagreed with grandfather's decision. No one spoke to stop Selena. They also want an explanation from the lawyer.
Harial shook his head at the attitude of his sister's family. Since long ago dad had planned all this and did not hide from them. Why only now do they complain of not being able to accept.
Adler who got all the inheritance just sat still without changing his posture or face. He knew it would be like this.
The lawyer fixed his glasses and glanced at the people sitting down one by one.
"The things I read are the decisions of the deceased who have been round and flat, except for the part given to Mr. Adler." The lawyer replied calmly and firmly.
“Can't do it dong! He was just an actor, how could he understand the company's problems? Running a company is not a role play, a little mistake can be very dangerous. Can the big company AR Group stay in its hands?” lick Selena.
"please calm! Let me continue reading the will until it is finished. And let me tell you, Mr. Adler has been a top adviser to AR Group for the past 6 years. So, you don't have to worry about AR Group going bankrupt,” interrupted Mr. Lawyer. Then continue reading the will.
Harial and Herman get 5 billion in cash and a mansion. Selena as Herman's wife got a 2 billion rupiah allowance, a 5% stake from a beauty company, a luxury house, and some jewelry.
Adrian as the oldest grandson has entered the company's AR Group since graduating from college. But, only in the branch of the company not in the headquarters. Adrian has managed the hotel well for many years, therefore grandfather decided to give the shares of the hotel to Adrian. In addition, Adrian also got 1 billion cash and a house.
Arfan, the second grandson has a problem with his feet and is unwilling to get involved in the company. Arfan has a great voice and often writes songs to spend his days not working.
Arfan would occasionally give the song he wrote to his stepbrother from his mother who worked as a singer. From there Arfan began working as a songwriter and voice actor.
Because of his grandson's work in the field of music, grandfather gave 50% stake in the entertainment company after discussing with Adler. The remaining 50% is owned by Adler who is also in the entertainment industry. And this applies after the will is read.
Just like Adrian, Arfan also get 1 billion rupiah cash and a house.
Asgar, the youngest grandson to have been married for a year. His name was Rindi Yudisa. Her boyfriend since college and is also the daughter of a wealthy family. Rindi is currently 7 months pregnant.
Just like his two brothers, Asgar also got shares of a company, 1 billion dollars, and a house. As for Rindi his wife gets 1 billion alimony, a house, and some jewelry. This is so that Rindi can give birth and take good care of her great-grandchildren.
After the reading of the will was completed, Selena still wanted to protest, but was stopped by her husband. Eventually they signed the letter of inheritance and received the share they got.
Selena walks away first followed by Herman. Harial said a few words to his son and left as well. Their brothers were in that room.
"Congratulations on your leadership. I hope you won't let down Grandpa's wishes. Otherwise, I would definitely try to snatch it from you."
Adrian broke the silence first, staring at Adler withstanding envy and a little anger.
Adler replied to Adrian with a smile, "Of course."
"Third brother survived. How about we celebrate this? Let's have dinner together" Asgar asked.
Adler nodded in agreement, "Alright, you can set the time and place." There is something important to talk about with them.
"OKAY. I'll send it to the group later. Second brother should also come," said Asgar smiling towards Arfan.
Arfan paused for a moment, then nodded.
Then he left the living room.
On the stairs, Adler paused for a moment and spoke to Arfan who was behind him.
"Follow me to the study. There's something I want to talk to you about."
"OK." Arfan responds and follows Adler into the workspace.
Adler took the file out of the drawer and placed it on the coffee table in front of Arfan who was sitting on the sofa.
"I want you to take over Star Entertainment as CEO" Adler said, sitting next to Arfan.
Star Entertainment is the entertainment company where Adler worked previously. Adler, the main owner of the company, yesterday he gave 10% to Rama and 50% just arrived in the hands of Arfan, now there is only 40% in his hands.
Arfan glanced at Adler questioningly, "Didn't Star Entertainment have a CEO? And also I work in the opposite company."
"The company needs a new CEO because the old CEO is out of contract. You are also one of the biggest shareholders right now. I think you're a great fit. Don't you want to have a company too?"
Adler knew clearly the thoughts of his siblings including Arfan who felt inferior because of his status as an illegitimate child.
"Just calm. It's not free. I'll give you 10 percent of my stake in Star Entertainment. How's it?"
Arfan took the file on the table and flipped it.
Adler's offer is very tempting for him who is nobody in this house. By working there at least he can be a bit on par with the other brothers who have worked in big companies.
The company is also hers. If he can't take good care of the company, Adler will definitely help him.
"OKAY. I agree" said Arfan signing his name on the documents.
"It's nice to work together." Adler stretched out his ladder in front of Arfan.
Arfan shook Adler's hand.
After Arfan came out, Adler saw his phone.
For the past few days Adler has been so busy that he has not paid attention to news from his new wife. After taking care of a few more things he would immediately bring her to meet papa and family.
Adler frowned as there was still no message or phone from him. Even the last message he sent was unread. Adler tried calling again.
'The number you are going to is inactive'
Only the voice of the operator is heard.
Adler looked at his phone annoyed. What's the matter? Why can't I call?
Did something happen? He also did not say where his married friend's house was. That way he can search for her there.
Maybe he went back to his hometown?
I'd better find out there first.
Adler immediately contacted his bodyguard, "Hello. I want you to find someone. I'll send you his address and picture."
