Novel & Cerita Accepting Massive Inheritance After Divorce

"Then we keep living together. But we renovate and make this place actually ours instead of our father's." "Deal," Adrian said, and kissed me. At home we found Helen waiting with news that my father's estate lawyer had called. "He said the final will provisions have been satisfied and you're both entitled to the full inheritance," Helen said. "Minus what you declined with the board situation." "How much are we getting?" Adrian asked. Helen handed us a document and I read the number twice to make sure I was seeing it correctly. "Fifty million each," I said. "Even after declining the company control."

She was rendered speechless. Four years ago, during their divorce discussions, her condition was to have the original shares of Holt Jewelry in his possession, but not all of them. Yet, in this property transfer document, all the cars, houses, stocks, and cash—both pre and post-marriage—were granted to her. It was a genuine clean break. Jessamine glanced up at him, feeling like she held no place in his heart. She never imagined he would go to such lengths. As the scion of a wealthy family and the CEO of a multinational corporation, he was willingly relinquishing all his wealth, rendering himself penniless.

My mother shouted. It was no longer surprising. Nothing could surprise me anymore. "Ahem! ahem!!" My grandfather cleared his throat silencing all the murmurings and side talks from everyone in the room. " With how quick you divorced him, it won't surprise me that you had the though in mind for a long time now. Look here child, now that you know that you're not the real child of this family, you no longer have the privileges being part of this family provides. No man would want to marry a second fiddle, a divorcee. If you don't want to beg Mr Hart, that's also fine, it was not as if you deserved someone like him anyways. "

"There's a clause in the family trust. The heir has to be married. Happily married. If Mason divorces, he loses his inheritance." Aiden went still. "What?" "Everything. The company, the properties, all of it. It only goes to him if he stays married." "So that's why he won't divorce her." "Exactly. We're working on changing the trust. But it takes time. Months. Maybe longer." Richard looked at Aiden. "Until then, Mason needs to stay married to Grace. Which means she needs to be with him. Not you." "But he's with Sophia." "I don't care who he's sleeping with. I care about the inheritance." Richard's face was stone. "Grace goes back to Mason. Tomorrow."

The ink had dried before her fingers stopped trembling. Eve sat frozen on the couch, the pen still warm between her fingers. Her eyes stared blankly at the thick line of her signature at the bottom of the neatly stacked papers. Divorce Decree. Final. Alex had split all his assets in half and given them to her—along with half of his company shares. Just like that, she’d become an instant billionaire. Or maybe a zillionaire. She didn’t know. And she didn’t care.

Along with that was a check with a terrifyingly large figure, assets like yachts, antiques, calligraphy, paintings, real estate, and business dividends—altogether adding up to an astronomical sum. And it was presented mercilessly on the page. “One billion dollars!” I was stunned by the figure and quickly tried to reject it. "Trevor, I can't accept this!" I said firmly. Trevor shook his head. "This is your mom’s inheritance. My father kept it for her for many years. It should rightfully go to you," he insisted. I was left speechless. To be honest, if anyone else were in my shoes, they’d be excited by such a fortune.

We agreed that our marriage was going to be infinite, and anyone who brings up the topic of divorce shall give eighty percent of his or her property to the other. Obviously, even if she's the one who requests the divorce or not, it'll still affect me because Paige has nothing to offer. She doesn't even have a job, let alone assets. So because of this, I couldn't divorce her because I'm going to lose almost all of my assets—I mean, the generational wealth my parents left for me, and I can't afford to do that. To be honest, I wouldn't have signed this contract if I were not manipulated. Then I was so clouded by her manipulation and our college romance memories that I couldn't reason properly t

“And the plan is… to file for divorce today.” Steven looked surprised. “That fast?” “Yes.” I didn’t hesitate. The sooner this was over, the better. “Especially now that I’ve realized… Alex never held onto this marriage because he loved me,” I continued. “It was because of the inheritance.” “What?” Steven’s eyes widened. “Yes. His grandfather’s will states that any descendant who divorces won’t receive the inheritance. And that’s not all,” I added. “The company Alex is running right now… also depends on this marriage.”

Her heels clicked softly against the polished floor as she slowly turned in a circle, absorbing the space around her. Just a few hours ago she had been standing in a ballroom filled with hundreds of people, smiling guests, glittering gowns, and expensive champagne. Her ex-husband had stood across from her. Victor Hale. One of the city’s most respected businessmen. After five years of a marriage of convenience together, he had handed her divorce papers. In front of everyone. Aurora exhaled slowly. The memory still felt unreal. She had signed the documents calmly, refusing to give Victor the satisfaction of watching her fall apart.
