Billionaire Contract Marriage For Heirs

It was like being struck by lightning in the middle of the day when Eve heard the news. The sky darkened.

 

 

"NO!!!" Eve screamed and fell to her knees, her mobile phone slipping out of her hand. She cried out. It startled the whole house, including her sister, Adeline. They looked at Eve with confused looks.

 

 

"Hey! What's wrong Eve? What happened?" asked Adeline, her sister.

 

 

Eve stammered. "Mum, Dad..."

 

 

"What's wrong with them? Didn't they just go to Paris? Have they arrived yet?" Adeline looked at her, confused.

 

 

Eve shook her head and continued to cry while covering her face. Eve couldn't take it; oh my God.

 

 

"Switch on the TV," Eve said softly.

 

 

Her sister Adeline looked at her with confusion. "TV? What does this have to do with TV? You are so weird!"

 

 

"I said, you switch on the TV! Don't ask too many questions!" Eve said, starting to get annoyed. Eve began to lose control of herself.

 

 

"Ok! Ok! But don't get angry like that! I'm just asking. What exactly is wrong with you, Heh?" Adeline raised both hands.

 

 

Adeline slowly moved to the TV room and switched it on as requested.

 

 

"We hereby inform you that the plane with flight Boeing A1225678 with the destination Paris, France had an explosive accident before finally sinking in an ocean. And all passengers on board were pronounced dead! "

 

 

One by one, they read out the names of the passengers.

 

 

"Mr Bryan Adams and Mrs Stephanie Adams.... That's all the information we can give you!"

 

 

"No! This is not true! Please someone tell me that this isn't true, right? Eve please tell me this is all a joke! Mum and Dad must be safe, right?" Adeline stared at Eve in disbelief.

 

 

"Calm down, Adeline. Everything will be okay. You still have me. I'll always take care of you," Eve coaxed her 11-year-old sister.

 

 

Eve was moved to hug and caress her back as she continued crying. Finally, they cried together. They continued to sob in the middle of the TV room with the TV still on that had changed the broadcast. Even Eve did not know or care about it.

 

 

Eve cried so hard that they were exhausted until Eve felt the weight of her sister's body on her.

 

 

"Adeline!" Eve shouted.

 

 

Adeline fainted.

 

 

***

 

Today, their house was visited by many people who came to express their condolences; they have no family other than their Uncle and aunt, who have been present here following the funeral process.

 

Not long after the announcement, they decided to hold the funeral when they felt there was no hope.

 

 

Their Uncle was named Alexander; he was the only brother of Eve's father, although they had different mothers. Or rather, Eve's father's half-brother. They offered to help Eve.

 

 

After the funeral, they didn't go straight home and cried at their parents' graves, and when they finished crying, they returned home. Meanwhile, Uncle and Aunty had gone home first.

 

Some of their hearts felt pulled out as if they had no grip.

 

They were surprised when they arrived home; two large suitcases were placed in front of their door.

 

They walked over to them, and sure enough. It was Eve and her sister's suitcases. "What is this?" Eve said to herself.

 

 

"What's wrong, Eve? Why are our suitcases outside?" asked Adeline.

 

 

"I don't know, Del! I don't know either. Let's find out!"

 

 

Eve knocked on the locked door of their house.

 

"Uncle! Aunty! Please open the door!" Eve shouted so loudly that her throat started to hurt.

 

It wasn't long before the door opened. There was a face, Aunt Laurine, Uncle Alex's wife.And Claire her cousin appeared at the door

 

 

"Clair, Aunty, thank goodness." Eve said, smiling.

 

 

"Claire, Aunty, why are our suitcases outside?" she asked.

 

Before Claire, and Auntie could answer their question, someone asked from behind.

 

"What's wrong, dear?" he asked gently. It was Uncle Alexander.

 

They looked at the two people in turn.

 

 

"What is it, Uncle? Can you explain it to us?" he asked, feeling something was wrong.

 

 

"What else do you need to explain, Heh? Please leave our house!" Uncle was about to close the door, but Eve held him back.

"What my Daddy said, right! This is our home now! Get out of here!" Claire, Eve's cousin who had always been annoyed and envious of Eve, added with resentment.

 

"Your house? Wait a minute, Uncle, Claire, there seems to be something wrong here. Isn't this our house? I mean, our parents' house?" Eve started to need clarification.

 

 

"Well, it was right before you switched and made us your guardians. Then my brother's house and car belonged to us! So, please get out of here!" he said sarcastically.

 

"Transfer? What guardianship? Don't joke Uncle! Let us in!" Eve tried to push him.

 

 

But two prominent men pulled Eve away.

 

 

"Let go! Let go of me! This is my house! My parents' house! You have no right to take it!" Eve shouted, struggling with both hands held by the two men.

 

 

"Oh, yeah? Look at this!" he said, throwing it in Eve's face." It's a copy that you're handing over exactly all the wealth and the house and everything in it to me! Alexander! Stupid girl! Hahahaha...!" Uncle Alexander laughed.

 

 

Eve took it and read it, but when did she sign this letter?

 

 

Eve ran up to him, "So Uncle lied to me? Uncle is sneaky! How could you lie to me! You are cruel!" Eve tried to hit him with her strength.

 

 

Uncle looked angry, "You little brat!"

 

He slapped Eve on the cheek. Eve winced in pain, and the corner of her lip was bleeding, tasting rancid and salty.

Meanwhile, Claire stared with a happy gaze and smiled sarcastically and said to herself, ' Feel it, Eve!'

 

"Uncle! You can't do this to us! Help us! If we have to leave here, where will we live, Uncle? Please help us...I'll do anything as long as you don't kick us out of here Uncle..." Eve knelt at her Uncle's feet.

 

 

But then what she did was kick Eve very hard in the chest. Her chest hurt a lot. Eve fell.

 

 

"Eve!" Her sister Adeline rushed over, but two big men blocked her movement.

 

 

"Get them out! I don't want to know how, get them out of here!" Uncle Alex said.

"GO! And don't come back!" his uncle scolded.

"Well, go away, Eve, you lowly woman!" This time Claire, Eve's cousin, joined in her scorn. She even pushed Eve. Before they finally closed the door of their house.

BLAM!

 

Eve looked at him and ran after him and tried to bang the door back. Eve screamed rebelliously, but it seemed meaningless to them. 

Eve was sobbing, and so was Adeline.

A middle-aged man, who was her doorman, approached with pity.

"Miss, leave! Before they do more than this! Take this for you...sorry this is all we can do for you! Go!, before they get here!" as he handed over some money into the hands of Eve who continued to cry.

"Uncle...Thank you..." Eve looked at their loyal servant and stared at the money in her hand with a sad look. In fact, they were like beggars who were pitied by others now. Because Eve didn't have a single penny in her hand except what the servant gave her.

The maid, afraid of being caught, hurriedly returned and closed the gate of Eve's family mansion.

Finally, Eve was thrown into the street along with her sister.
