Chapter 5: The Will of Mr. Mays

Qi Luoling went to a nearby station and bought a bus ticket. After checking the ticket www.biquge.info Pen & Fun & Pavilion, she found a vacant seat and sat down.

When she went out in the morning, she asked the young man at the front desk for the bus route at 62 Old Town Market Square. The Old Town Market Square is the central square of Warsaw's Old Town, which is rectangular in shape and is a square with a long history and a landmark square in Warsaw. City buses that pass through the city can only take a detour through the square.

So she had to sit at a nearby stop and get off the bus and walk to the market square. After a few minutes of walking, she arrived at the market square.

The place where the market was held in the 18th century is now a leisurely pedestrian street. The huge square is surrounded by restaurants, gift shops, and cafes. The surrounding buildings are all Renaissance style. There weren't many people in the square, and everyone had a friendly smile. Street performers are exhibited here as art.

DLA Piper is on the third floor of the building in front of it. The building is a brick-red baroque four-storey building, which is quaint but not dilapidated.

Walking to the quaint building, she looked at the note in her hand and compared it with the address she had written, yes, it was this address. Then she looked at the time again, and it was a quarter of an hour to three o'clock in the afternoon, and the time was just right.

Qi Luoling went to the first floor, the marble floor, and walked up the dark red swirling wooden staircase, the handrails of the staircase were polished.

Coming to the third floor, the interior furnishings are more quaint, and the swirl patterns on the walls precipitate the vicissitudes of time. As soon as I walked to the hall on the third floor, a woman in a long red dress greeted me.

"Excuse me, are you Miss Qi Luoling from Shanghai, China?"

"Yes."

"Helvar lawyers are waiting for you, please come with me."

The woman in the red dress made an inviting gesture. Then he led her to the innermost office in the hallway on the third floor.

She knocked on the door a few times, then pushed it open and motioned for Qi Luoling to enter.

It is a large office with an elegant interior and a black desk that exudes the majesty of the lawyer's profession.

At the desk stood a man in a dark blue suit. I guess it's DLA Piper. He was probably in his forties, with slightly curly brown hair, a moon-white shirt, a blue striped tie, and an upper-class demeanor in his gestures.

"Hello, Miss Qi Luoling." With a faint smile, Helvar stretched out his right hand.

Qi Luoling took his generous hand, "Hello, Lawyer Ouhua. ”

Lawyer Helvar smiled and motioned for her to sit down.

Qi Luoling sat down, and the woman in the red dress walked in from outside, asking her if she wanted something to drink, and she shook her head.

Lawyer Helvar sat down, put on his glasses, buried his head, and flipped through the materials in his hand. The room suddenly became silent, except for the ancient clock on the wall that swayed from side to side.

After more than ten seconds, Helvar raised his head and said in a straight voice: "Miss Qi, as the content of the letter I sent to you says, the reason why I invited Miss Qi to Warsaw was with Duland?" Mr. Maiss's will. I won't say polite words, let's get straight to the point. Me, Burns? Helvar, as you know, is a lawyer who has long been a lawyer for Duland? Mr. Meiss is a full-time lawyer and specializes in law-related matters. ”

She nodded.

"Duland? Mr. Mays died of illness a month ago, and in addition to mourning this gentleman of high moral character, we are honored by Durand? During his lifetime, Mr. Meiss entrusted him to faithfully execute his last will. ”

After speaking, Helvar took out a will from the folder in his hand.

"This is Duland? Mr. Meiss's second altered will, in which he mentions you. ”

"Will after the second change?"

"Yes, just a few days before he died, he suddenly asked to propose a revision of the will that had previously been kept with me. After confirming that he was conscious and thinking normally, we changed the will according to his request and notarized the new will. At the same time, the previous will was no longer valid. ”

"I still can't understand, I'm with Duland? Mr. Maiss had never known him, so how could his regret mention me? ”

Mr. Au Piper glanced at her through his gold-rimmed glasses, as if with an elusive connotation.

"Do you know who he is?"

Qi Luoling shook her head.

"You don't know about the Durand family?"

The Durand family? Qi Luoling frowned, this surname was obviously unfamiliar to her, or she had never heard of it.

"I think that's understandable, after all, you grew up in China."

"Yes, I don't know anything about it."

"The Durand family has always been the nobility of Poland, in the Middle Ages they were made dukes, their fiefs were large, their estates used to be more than 1,000 acres, and they had properties in many parts of the city. Although by the end of the sixteenth century, the tradition of blood nobility was broken. ”

"Even today, however, the Durand family is a prominent family in Warsaw, and many honorary privileges are retained, and the Duke of the family can intercept and use any vehicle, a privilege that was once valid for carriages, horses, and ships, and now has the same legal effect on trains, cars, and even airplanes if necessary. But Duland? After the death of Duke Meiss, the Durand family had no heirs. Mr. Helvar's tone seemed a little regretful.

However, Lawyer Ouhua's tone changed, his face became slightly serious, and he said: "In this will, two people are mentioned, one is you, and the other is Lady Carolina, the housekeeper of the manor, she is Durand?" A distant relative of Mr. Mays. But she wasn't there today. “

"A will can be broadly divided into three parts. In the first part, Duland? Mr. Mays gave a portion of his personal property to Mrs. Carolina and her husband. In the second part, he donated his property and all his music recordings to a charitable organization. The third part is about you, Mr. Qi. Durand? Mr. Meiss has gifted you the Bletceno estate in his name free of charge. ”

When Helvar finished speaking, he pushed the will off the table.

If you still have any questions about that, can you take a look at Duland? The original will of Mr. Meiss. ”

Qi Luoling took the will and read it carefully. The will is not very long, only one page, and as the lawyer said, the content is divided into three parts. The third part writes about her.

“...... I voluntarily give the Pleceno estate in my name to Miss Chellotine, including all the collections and objects in the estate, which are the property of Miss Chellotine......."

There is a photo under the will, which turned out to be a photo of her drinking coffee with Mr. Mu on the Bund in Shanghai, no wonder she always felt as if someone was watching her behind her back that day. It turned out that he had been stalked.

Qi Luoling signed some formalities, and the matter of the will has come to an end.

She was eager to ask about the Will again, but she didn't know how to ask, so she got up and took her leave.

Lawyer Helvar didn't explain anything or ask more, but sent her downstairs in a special silence.
