The silence In the room was deafening, overwhelming!
Once again the lawyer speaks.
(Everything and I mean everything I've obtained over my long life belongs to me and me alone. My hard work and perseverance in life has made it so. I leave my entire fortune to my beloved wife Marlena Brown. No one deserves it more than her, her devotion and care all this years has given me true happiness. She is my one and only! Everything, I leave to her!)
Fiona brown, or Bitch as Marlena likes to call her was the first to react.
"Outrageous! What is the mean of this? Edgar, explain yourself! My son is the oldest son! And He gets nothing, nothing! I'm the first wife, and I get nothing? And this bastard, and the Tramp they get everything?! This is insane. Outrageous!"
Everyone was surprised this was, in fact, unbelievable! Marlena getting everything was one thing, but the boy, that was insane! The fact that nobody else got anything was truly unbelievable. How could this happen.
Sofia was the first wife, she deserve something, anything, everything!
What about Alexa? She was the sister. Of all people here, she deserve a big piece of the cake. What was happening? This was crazy. Alexander had lost his mind with his tramp and his bastard!
Sofia took a sand, she sat up straight and looked Edgar In the eyes.
"Mr. Beashamp, my late husband wasn't in his right state of mind. My son is his oldest and he deserves a part of the fortune left. What your reading is simply outrageous."
"Marlena takes a big breath and smile politely.
"Everyone, please take your sits. The will isn't over. Mr. Beauchomp is only doing his job. There is more to the will than this. I beg you, listen till the end."
"Easy for you to say hussy! You got everything! What about the rest of us? We're his real family. What did you ever gave him? Nothing but sex and profanity!"
Fiona's words were demeaning but Marlena was unfazed.
"I'm sorry my husband made this decision. I truly am. Fake tears star to fall down her beautiful face. I never intended for this to happen. I was young and naïve when i met Alexander. But he loved me. From the moment we met he showed me love and care. If he left his fortune in my care, it wasn't my choice to make. The same is said for this young boy."
She point at Alex. The hatred in his heart was overwhelming. How could she be so good at faking. If he could he would strangle her to death.
Please listen to the rest of the Will. I beg of you. Fiona, we both loved Alexander. He was sweet, nice and caring. He had his faults perhaps. But he cared! I know there's more to this Will than this. Of course he left something for the Two of you. I know my husband. He wouldn't leave his family in the streets like this. You're poor and we understand it. Please sit down and let Mr. Beauchamp finishe the reading."
How dare her! The words were nice but everything could understand the subtext. "You're poor and we understand it."
the nerve of her! Fiona was furious! This tramp who stole her husband, was now humiliating her. Her son! Her family!
She was getting everything and there was nothing she could do.
Anthony was furious! How could this be? A bastard and a tramp we're getting everything that rightfully belongs to him!
Unlike his mother he had class! He couldn't make a spectacle. Never!
"Everyone, my father has his reasons. We must respect his wishes. This boy and the young lady he found in the gutter are his benefactors. There's nothing we can do about it! Let us finish the reading. Please everyone sit down. My father deserve his last Will to be respected."
Marlena hated peoples like her, this boy was tougher than she could have thought. Just like her, nothing fazed him! Her blood was boiling. She wanted to kill him. She couldn't. He was untouchable, for now.
(One day….)
Mr. beauchamp cleared his throat and continued with the reading.
(To my oldest son, Anthony, I leave my finest horses, purebreds. I also leave my mansion in Mexico and a few apartments in France. Marlena is to give him an allowance of 20 thousand per month and 5 million dollars when he gets married. To my first grandson, son of my oldest, 10 million dollars I leave in the care of my loving wife until the time he turns of age.)
Anthony smiles with satisfaction, indeed he didn't get as much as he wanted. but at least he got something. Marlena was just a dumb woman anyway, he could fine a way to get rit of her. Everything would one day come back into his hands. The tramp was nothing!
(To my sister, I leave my hatred, you despicable woman I despise you I hope you live a horrible, terrible life! I leave you nothing more than hateful thoughts. Please take care of my feelings. They mean you nothing but harm.)
Everything was dumbfounded.
Edgar was red with embarrassment.
Marlena had to bite her lips not to cry with laughter.
Alexander was unreadable.
Fiona wanted to laugh but held herself back for her mother's sake.
Tony laughed, he couldn't control himself. His father was too much, even in death. (I can't hate you dad, I just can't. You always find a way to crack me up! )
Alexa couldn't control her hatred. This bastard! (I hope he burns in hell!)
Without a word she got up and left. Marlena couldn't hold it in any longer, she was human after all.
Her laughter took everyone by surprise. Even young Alexander.
The poor boy despite wanting her death couldn't help but smile at her antics. It was way too funny. His dad was way too much!
Regardless, he would find a way to make her pay. Now that he was rich, it couldn't be so hard. First thing, he had to gane her trust. He knew this demon with a mask. But she didn't know him. His mask has to perfect, better than her's. She was going to pay!
His revenge was coming, and she would beg for mercy…..!
