The Unexpected Heir Chapter 8: Funeral.
My heart ached and my body hurt.I can't describe the amount of pain I feel right now as they lower her casket into the ground.I don't know how I was able to stand upright for the whole funeral. It's not as if anyone held onto me to support me. I was standing on my two legs when I heard my mother in law loudly sobbing.The funeral ended. I was more at a loss now and the next day was blurry to me but it didn't make me forget what was going on around me or what they said behind me.They called me the leeching husband that was going to be left homeless because his wife just died."Now that Dora is dead you need to start paying the bills she did so you can continue staying in this house if not you have to leave." Mrs. Simon's my wife's mother, told me that a day after my funeral.I understand she wanted me out of her family as soon as possible but to tell me this after my wife just died was just cruel.Since people have left she no longer has to put on the facade of a grieving mother s
The Unexpected Heir Chapter 9:Toxic family.
I went to the police station again today to lay a complaint about how they still haven't found was involved in the hit-and-run accident with my wife but I was not given a satisfactory answer they still haven't found the monster that hit my wife and run away she was just trying to walk across the road when the crosswalk light was green for her to walk past, but the bastard couldn't wait to drive his car and ran her over now she was dead and the person who hit her wasn't found.I can't help the feeling of dread and loneliness that washed over my body when I returned again today with no fruitful results to the investigation of the police. How can there not be any working CCTV camera placed on a crossroad?Who would even believe a lie like ,they are trying to hide something or someone went out of his way to destroy the evidence.I got into the house to see my mother-in-law ,sitting in the living room taking small sips from a glass of wine.When she saw me she scoffed."The wanderer has fi
The Unexpected Heir Chapter 10: Ten days.
Today was another day that just returned from the police station and the investigation was not yet fruitful. I saw Dora's parents sitting in the living room with a man when I returned back home."He came to see you." They informed me and I stopped and turned to them."Sit." I was told and I did.The man cleared his throat before speaking."You want to settle this out of court and we want to ask you to stop asking the police to investigate this matter further." He told me."Settle what?"I asked with a raised eyebrow."The hit and run accident of your wife ,how much will it cost you to forget about it?" He asked me."Are you insane?" I asked."You better take what he is offering you." Mr Simon told me."You stay out of this!" I yelled at him and he glared at me."Why didn't you bring the money when she was in the hospital bed and needed surgery?" I asked the man."We were not aware of it then." He said."Get out!" I yelled."What?" The man asked in surprise as he looked at my father in
The Unexpected Heir Chapter 11:Cruel.
Everyone is being cruel to me right now .I could not believe that I was in this helpless state, just because I wanted to sleep soundly at night knowing that the person who caused my wife to die was behind bars and brought to justice.To think that my own Father and my in-laws would abandon me at this time that I was at my lowest.They should be helping me seek justice for my dead wife but instead they have abandoned me.I knew that my in-laws would kick me out soon because they were just a bunch of heartless monsters, but to think that when I return home my father will refuse to let me back into the house when I was going through such a hard time was something I didn't expect.I walked for a while just dragging my luggage as I walked on the sidewalk, looking around like a man who had lost his way , I saw a bench and sat down, and gently massaged my leg. I took a deep breath and tried to recollect my memory.I should go and stay in a hotel for the time being before going anywhere els
The Unexpected Heir Chapter 12: Half sister.
I was frozen to the spot as Vera, my half sister took in my appearance,with a look of disgust on her face.I know I looked messy, because I haven't trimmed my beard and I didn't bother combing through my hair these past few days because it has been a dark week for me, so I don't need her looking at me that way."I know you are a poor loser ,but you should at least dress properly and take care of yourself so you won't look miserable all the time, it's crazy what people will do to get noticed!" Vera jeered at me as her friends looked at me weirdly.They were judging me with their eyes filled with disgust.I wasn't the one who put myself into this situation ,but I can't help it that I looked that bad."Vera, How do you know this weirdo?" One of her girlfriend's with her asked her."Oh he's just someone I know, he is no one important don't worry about him." Vera replied and I rolled my eyes.I wasn't expecting her to call me her brother ,because I know I am not actually her brother in her
The Unexpected Heir Chapter 13: Let go of it.
I hastily walked away from where Vera was standing, because I knew if I stayed around her for a second more,I might make a mistake I would forever regret.It took all the self-control I had to not run back and ask Vera to help me by lending me money.I know my Father, Mr Chase will never ask her what she spends money on so even if she gives me a thousand dollars he won't care to know what she used to money for, but going to ask Vera for money was like digging my own early grave because she would want to disgrace me just to make herself feel good.I would never understand what I did to this family, but I guess my coming into their family almost ruined it.I was so angry at the situation that it didn't even look at where I was going, my head dropped into a defeated position as I thought about the options I had left.I bumped into someone and I just continued walking."Hey man can't you even apologize!" I heard someone yell behind me and I continued walking without turning back to acknow
The Unexpected Heir Chapter 14: Not again.
The atmosphere was tense as it was deadly silent, as all I could hear was the sound of crickets chirping.There was no one that I could call out to that could help me because it was still dark.I was panting heavily as I could feel my heart drumming in my chest as I was scared of that outcome this encounter would have.Even though the man was pointing a gun at me I didn't let the luggage go, my grip on the luggage might have loosened but the man did not try to drag it out from my hand.He was cautious of me,I think he was caught off guard by the fact that even though I was sleeping I still had such a strong hold on the luggage.The items inside this luggage were important to me. I can't lose them to a thief that won't know the importance of the items in the luggage.But I stopped to think, I can't possibly lose my life over a luggage, Dora, my late wife, would want me to remember her but she won't want me to lose my life over a luggage, I wanted to let it go when I suddenly remembered
The Unexpected Heir Chapter 15: Trouble.
I panicked and frantically looked for my luggage because that was the only belonging I had and memories of Dora were in the box."This luggage that my Father bought for me is giving me unnecessary trouble." I mumbled as I slammed my hand on the bed.Nothing my Father gives me brings good luck to me, I will get rid of that luggage when I find it.Since the room was small and I had looked around and I didn't see the luggage, I decided to ask the men in the room."Please did you see my luggage?" I asked no one in particular and nobody gave me a reply as expected. It felt as if they knew what was going on but they didn't want to say anything.I decided to take a more direct approach.I walked closer to the bed of the man next to me, he was sitting on his bed, writing down in a book."Excuse me, did you see who took my luggage?" I asked the man beside me and he glared at me."Stop bothering me can't you see I am working here! was I the one that told you to keep your luggage carelessly, do
