Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 5422

“It’s true that you look remarkably like the late family head who passed away decades ago, but even those unrelated by blood can share a resemblance. How can you prove you’re the son of the late family head?”

Laurence said solemnly, “Without the family heirlooms, I wouldn’t even show my face around here or call every family member here.”

The mention of the bloodline was such a low blow since his immediate family was dead.

Laurence was aware of the family rules. Susan’s attempt to use the bloodline against him would not work.

Susan scanned the room before her gaze fell on Laurence’s handsome face. Laurence kept his cool, looking like he had everything in the bag.

She knew that a DNA test would not hold Laurence back. Still, she said, “Since you have everything, why don’t you show us the totem?”

The totem was the key.

In any case, the totem had always been carefully protected by the successive family heads. The totem would only be shown to everyone when a new head was taking over.

That was the only time the totem was revealed. Only the older family would have known what the totem looked like.

She became part of the Longbottom family just before the late head of the family took power. She was lucky enough to have seen the totem once, and the image was etched in her memory. She would never forget it.

Tony only knew that the totem was a treasure map when he became the acting head.

If he could get his hands on the totem, his family would be rich even if he did not assume a leadership role. His family would just sell the treasure and break away from the Longbottoms while still living in luxury.

They might even be better off than being the family head.

Laurence smiled pretentiously. “What’s the rush? I have everything. I have had these family heirlooms with me since the age of one. I have kept them safe for over thirty years.

“I’ve shown the seal and token. They are the real deal, am I right?”
