"A foundation!" Phoebe exclaimed.

Memories returned to Phoebe, going to the moment right before Luther moved on. He had mentioned that he had left her a gift and he had cautioned her to use it to help others.

She had assumed that he was talking about the whispering coins back then, now she could tell it was not the case. He had left her a foundation that had billions of money, according to the lawyer.

Even though she owned land worth billions, Phoebe did not have a billion on her account. It sounded like a lot of money, more than she had ever owned in her life.

"My God!" Phoebe murmured.

[Ho ho ho! I am rich! double rich as a Mayfair heiress and Luther's heiress.]

All the Mayfair's saw this thought and they held back the smiles on their faces. Andre wanted to remind her that foundation money was technically not hers for spending as she wished.

Edward quickly perused through the documents scanning for only the important parts first. He was looking for traps in the clauses or anything that could be harmful to Phoebe.

It was three pages and he was not in the mood to go through all of them so he decided to take a shortcut.

"The Linda foundation? What does it do?" His eyes quizzed Cornwell whom he was certain had all the information. It was faster to hear from him than read a couple of documents.

"I am sure that you know that Phoebe here played a huge role in helping Luther find his grand daughter, Linda. You also know the inner truth about the Verdemont family members that played different roles in her death, some actively while others passively.

Luther didn't remain the same when he found out so he used the last days of his life to punish his family members and also put his things in order. He decided that his children were not worthy of his hard earned fortune and decided that half of his wealth will be managed by D.P holdings while the other half went to the Linda foundation which he willed to her." Cornwell's hand pointed at Phoebe.

Collin rubbed his chin. "The Linda foundation. Is that the same foundation that he left for Phoebe?"

Nodding in affirmation, Cornwell answered. "Yes it is."

Andre blinked rapidly as he made calculations in his head. "And how much exactly is this half?" He wanted to take a guess but he did not know how deep Luther's pockets run. Cornwell had said billions, he wanted to know how much they were talking about.

"To be exact the foundation has precisely one hundred billion, thirty million, three hundred and fifty thousand in Loewe bank. All Phoebe has to do is sign a few papers accepting the inheritance and she can access it in a week."

Cornwell's eyes were fixed on Phoebe whom he found odd. Ordinary people would be jubilation or at least curious but not her, all she was doing was staring blankly. It was almost as if she had not just received a boatload of money.

Andre whistled loudly in a dramatic way, drawing images in his head of the ways that he could spend the money. He had so many projects that could use investments and foundations invested in different projects to grow their income and last for many years.

Perhaps he could convince his little sister to be his permanent backer. When he entered the entertainment industry against his father's wishes, no Mayfair resource was given to him. He had to start from the bottom to get to where he was now.

Lately, he was considering moving from acting to film making. He wanted to open his own film making, marketing and distribution company.

Andre sighed and shook his head, it was best not to make plans with money which did not belong to him.

"So what's the catch? My father asked earlier what the purpose of the foundation was but you have yet to answer." Collin asked.

He was aware that nothing in the world came to anyone freely, Luther must have wanted something from Phoebe.

Cornwell chuckled and leaned forward, he shrugged and folded his lips for a small moment.

"There is none."

"Excuse you? That is not possible! No one leaves that amount of money to a stranger for free there must be something he wanted her to do?" Luke used his hand to emphasize his points strongly.

"Agreed! What does the foundation do? Why are you dodging that question?" Collin folded his hands, this was just suspicious at least to him. "Look if he wants my sister to babysit his unruly children, it's not going to work. Everyone has seen that video of Ekhart pulling hair and we heard that he and Paul attacked DP holdings with sticks, acting like barbarians. We don't want to deal with those lunatics."

Cornwell tugged his front hair, he was getting slightly frustrated for he had only but a few answers. "The foundation has no defined purpose, the information is all in these documents and here." He placed a flash drive on the table. "It's up to Phoebe to decide how to use the money his only requests were that you use it to help others like you helped him and also collaborate with D.P holdings such that you choose the right heir from the next generation of Verdemonts." He let out a heavy sigh.

"Unbelievable! Rumors are going around that the Verdemonts are flat broke but no one believed it because we all know how much Luther was worth. It seems like he just gave out everything." Jennie shook her head continuously.

Grandma Mayfair clicked her tongue. "Those venomous snakes deserve what they got which is nothing! The other day they attacked Phoebe at the cafe...."

"What? Mother why didn't you say anything?" Edward relaxed face folded.

"It wasn't a big deal, the ghosts and I taught them a big lesson. I doubt they can dare to return and if they do, i will break their skulls." Grandma Mayfair assured Edward.

She did not even hesitate to mention the ghosts in front of Cornwell. The Mayfairs had been pulled so deep into Phoebe's world that such talk was normal to them. They did not notice the puzzlement on Cornwell's face.

The lawyer was wondering how ghosts had taught the Verdemonts a lesson and why they were being mentioned. He was not ignorant about Phoebe being a shaman or her rumored ghost seeing abilities.

He just wasn't a believer.

"Shouldn't we beef up her security? They will surely attack when they get wind of this news." A worried expression was etched on Collins face.

"No need David took care of that, he got our Phoebe two good body guards a long time ago." Grandma Mayfair mentioned such that David could score some points

However Collin wasn't impressed. "So where were they when she was attacked?"

His sister was making more enemies than friends, she needed to be protected all day, everywhere and at all times.

Phoebe intervened. "I don't allow them inside the Cafe but they are really helpful and i am very comfortable with them." She gave Collin an assuring nod.

Her eldest brother swallowed hard and gave David a warning stare before returning his attention to Cornwell.

"So this D.P holdings business, what has it got to do with Phoebe?" Collin's arm went around Phoebe's shoulders protectively.
