Juliana looked up at them, "Is that all right with everyone?"
After Juliana's vigorous counter-blow, Granduncle Danie and the others did not dare to say anything, especially Uncle Jason, who was afraid that Juliana might have got something on him.
Jermaine looked up at them and gave them a hint with his eyes.
After that, he said in a deep voice, "Jill, I won't take what your mother gave you. As long as the elders agree, I will give you the stake as well."
Juliana looked at them indifferently.
Granduncle Danie was the first to speak up, "Since Sury has left it to Jill, it belongs to her."
Granduncle Owen coughed and said, "It is meant to be Jill's. Jermaine, you're not supposed to have it."
Jason, despite his reluctance, could only say, "I'm just her uncle and it's out of my hands."
Jermaine was astonished because that was not what they had agreed to say in the study.
How could they all have changed their tune after only a short while?
