  The reading of the Will. Half of the money that Carter had will be put into donations as what the Queen wanted. Then, the rest was divided among their children. As for the couples, they will get more money to be distributed to their future kids. Even the adopted children already had their separate bank accounts from Carter's funds. It costs millions as they will be able to hold it when they reach eighteen. 

  Then most of his real estate and belongings were given to Karmina and her children. There's also an inheritance for Henry but since Henry is dead, it was transferred to Karmina and their children including Johanna. He also named a family vacation home in Switzerland under their names. 

"There next is the money and few assets that Duke Carter had." He named the assets and the amount of money. "A mansion in Ice Valley will be given to the man named Ace." They all looked at Ace who was puzzled. A mansion in the Taguig Philippines will be given to a man named Leon. There's no specific surname but the Duke had their faces in here." He showed it to them. 

"Why do I look handsome in there?" Ace asked as Guinevere covered his mouth. The man who was reading the Will chuckled. 

"A mansion in the Sun Valley will be given to Lord Terrence. Next, a villa in England will be given to Lord Victor." 

  They all looked at Victor. 

"Wow, England huh," Johanna commented. 

"You can have it if you want," Victor said without having a second thought. 

"Bro. Nope. I am fine. I have a lot." She winked. 

"Alright, so there's another villa in England that was named after Miss Violet." 

  Everything was distributed fairly for everyone that also including Ian. It was a long read that night that they have to listen to Henry's will.

Nine AM in the Rossie Castle,

  MJ was holding her baby boy as she stared at the throne that will be turned over by Karmina to them. It's a big, big responsibility. Dione ran around and climbed up to Henry's throne. They missed Henry so much and the kids were still young to understand that. That's why they visit Henry every day in the secured place where they only had access. 

"Mimi, sit here. Aiden." She said and pointed to the vacant throne. She walked toward Dione and put Kaiden on the other chair. 

"Oh, that's adorable." Karmina was passing by with a tablet on. Then, she approached the babies and waved at them. "Stay still, Kaiden." 

  Dione giggled as Karmina took a photo of them. 

"I should get little thorns for them." Karmina had decided. 

"Mom," MJ called. 

"It will be adorable!" She was excited and happy. She's just like Henry. "We will have a family photo together. I am sure that Henry will be happy." 

  MJ nodded her head as she pressed her lips as soon as Karmina left. She sat beside her baby boy who pointed to the crown. 

"You cry, Mimi?" Dione asked as she climbed down from the throne, stood in front of her mom, and reached her face. "No cry, Mimi. Ion loves you." 

"I love you too." She sniffled and kissed Dione's lips. "Let's go and see daddy." She picked up Kaiden and held him in her right hand as she reached Dione's hand. They went to the office that is now owned by Harvey. 

Dadi!" Dione called excitedly as she ran to him and hugged his leg. Two ministers are currently discussing with him the renovations. 

  Harvey patted her head and picked her up. 

"The costs and the materials are bigger than we expected." The Minister of Treasure said. "But, then our cost will lower as there are a lot of men who volunteered." 

"Hmm," Harvey nodded his head. 

"It's for free, your highness." 

"Right," Harvey looked at MJ. "Love, is the new machine ready?" 

"Yes, it will be here in three hours." 

  They stopped and bowed at MJ as she sat on the sofa to listen to them. 

"We are ready to pay the volunteers," Harvey said. They will have to take out a little of their money to put it as a donation. "Dione, is it okay if we take like ten percent of your savings to renovate the park?" 

"Okane?" She asked. "Okay. Kin-kin too." 

"Oh, great. We can ask for her money too." 

  Dione giggled adorably. 

"They are going to fund the park?" The Minister of Treasure said. 

"Yes, they have money," Harvey said and put Dione on the swivel chair. 

"I pay. Kin-kin pay." Dione told the ministers as they couldn't believe that a one-year-old girl understood that. They still think that it was probably a joke but she looked so adorable. She took her father's pen and played with it as they continued discussing. It ended shortly and Harvey sat on the vacant chair and checked the funds. 

"You can put whatever you want in the park. So the kids can play there." 

"Okay!" She said, "Kin-kin want fishy." 

  Harvey titled his head. He knew well that Quinn would request that one. MJ chuckled. 

"Just gave it to them."

  Half of the castle was renovated after the attack. Now, she's currently watching from her window as they fixed the Magical Garden that Henry gave Karmina. There's a beautiful sculpture of the Queen together with him and their children. It's a good thing that none of the statues got destroyed. But the swing, flowers, and slide that he made for the babies were destroyed. 

"Mama, Kin-kin go imesnsment." Quinn said as she took a stash of money from her mini-vault that Connor didn't have an idea that she had in her room in the castle. Johanna didn't hear Quinn, but she heard the door open and closing. She was phasing out at the moment and after five minutes, she realized that she was alone. She quickly got up and checked her phone to track Quinn. The little girl was in the King's office which was downstairs. 

"Quinn!" She shouted as she rushed downstairs. She burst into Harvey's office and sighed in relief upon seeing her baby girl. The little girl was sitting on the swivel chair with her purse and holding a small teacup that was perfect for her size. "What in hell?" She frowned. 

"She's talking about investment," Harvey said. "I kept telling her that we are not going to invest but donate. She insisted." 

  Somehow, Quinn is giving her a headache. 

"Seriously? You are a minor. A one-year-old little girl." Johanna crossed her arms. 

"Okane," Quinn carefully put her tea cup over the table and took out the money from her purse and a bank book. 

"Whose bankbook is that?" She rushed to her and took it. It was under Quinn's name and deposited by Henry. "Why do you have this?" 

"Okane." She said, "Gandpapa, give." 

  Johanna looked at Harvey who was as puzzled as she was. 

"This is why the kids shouldn't hold money. I am going to confiscate this and if you want to donate I will pay for it." She scolded her. 

"No. No. Mine." Quinn was reaching the bank account. 

"Quinn, I told you." 

  Harvey sighed as he looked at Dione and Kal who were on the other swivel chair. 

"Daddy! I will give my money for the park." Cole entered and gave his bank book. 

"We just need five percent, son." He told him. 

"How much is five percent?" Johanna put a hand over her waist. 

"Well, around twenty-five thousand dollars."  2

  She raised her brows. 

"We are separating the accounts and the adult account will be used for the castle and facilities." 

"How much?" Johanna asked. 

"As I've said, the kids will donate if they want."

"They are minor." Johanna is having a headache. 

"Yes, they are minor but it would be best if they started to learn how to donate at that age. Dione and Cole already donated." 

"Mama, I want fishy. Park." Quinn said. 

"Kin-kin loves fish." Dione giggled. 

"Fine," She was about to give the bank book to Quinn but she pulled it back. "I am going to confiscate this." 

"No." Quinn pouted. 

"Uncle, we wanted a mini-theater in the park!" Jade rushed in and she curtsied and apologized. 

"Sure, darling." Harvey put it on the list. "Okay, what else?" 

"Maybe a mini-soccer spot?" Yves who was tagging along with Jade suggested. 

"We can do that." 

"Fishy! Fishy!" Quinn exclaimed at him. 

"Uh," He looked at Johanna. "We can have a pond but it won't be good when winter comes." 

  Johanna sighed. 

"Why won't you take a break? I will take care of the kids. I am still going to discuss this one." 

  Johanna reached her baby's chin and kissed her nose. 

"Don't go anywhere without your cousins." 

"I go, Coco!" She pointed to Cole. 

"Good." 

  She watched as they gathered there in front of Harvey. She lazily went upstairs to her room as she lay down on the bed while holding her daughter's bank book. She looked at the enormous amount of money that Henry deposited. His inheritance hasn't been distributed yet but he already set out a plan for them. 

"Papa," Johanna looked at his photo beside her bed together with Karmina, Keira, and Harvey. 

"Jo," Connor called as she didn't realize that her husband was watching her for ten seconds from the door.
