The leeuwenhook Heir

Three

Carissa, spoke as all eyes turned to her. She proceeded to walk up the stage but Mrs. Cherry held her hands.

“Let go of me, mother!” She insisted.

“Do you want to bring reproach to us? What do you think you are doing?” 

She whispered to her but Carissa, didn't want to hear a word. Seeing that, Karen, walked towards her and gave her a slap on the cheek.

“Are you so dumb? We are getting this tick off our skin, and you want to ruin it?” 

Karen asked and Carissa stared angrily at her holding unto her right cheek.

“Mother!” she called in a hush voice. “You proclaimed Sebastian, my husband when you made me sign this document that cold night and of such Sebastian, is the son-in-law of this family and is going nowhere.” 

Carissa,said and mount up the stage. She looked at Sebastian, who was now covered in shame, and she smiled sweetly at him before she inhaled and exhaled, grabbing the microphone slightly.

“I, Carissa Marcus, have come to tell you all that Sebastian, is the son-in-law of this family and as such, should be treated with respect.”

She spoke and the people murmured. Sebastian was going to say something, but she restricted him with her hands. Whatever he wants to say, she isn't interested in it. Mrs. Cherry bit her lips hard. Tightening her knuckle in anger at the audacity of Carissa.

“What Is this bitch saying?” 

Dan murmured angrily.

“Sebastian Katerina is my husband and the son-in-law of the Marcus family.” 

She announced entangling their palms together. Seeing that, Karen's jaw dropped in anger.

“Here is the proof that we are legally married and this is sealed with the sealing of the legal court. So, I urge everyone here to accord respect to Sebastian, as the son-in-law of this family, if none of you wants to be on my bad side.” 

She chided, staring daggers at Dan and Karen. Seeing that, Karen scold ready to pounce on her, but Mrs. Cherry held her back.

“No need to cause dramas here. Carissa, will learn the height of the mistake which she already made.” 

Mrs. Cherry spoke, holding Karen's wrist.

“How can a servant become a Master?”  Dan asked rudely in annoyance.

“I presume you were first a servant before becoming a Master. You might have lived in massive wealth, but your father, was a servant before he acquired wealth.”

Carissa spoke, and Sebastian looked at her in doubt. He felt sorry because the lady who had always been bullied never spoke a word, as she was always timid, had to speak up for him today, not minding the consequences. He felt sorry because,she wasn't the one he loved.

“I won't stand you for a moment Carissa, if you speak trash about Dan, just because, of that thing you call a husband.”

Karen, charged at her immediately.

“Bravado! Accepting he is my husband. And you know what that is?”

“You are shameless.” Karen cursed but, Carissa,looked away.

“Oh, Cherry, you have indeed raised yet again rivalry daughters. And mother, you supervised the completions of a volcanic relationship. What a pity, it's in the bloodline.”

Ava spoke pitifully to the hearing of her mother and sister Cherry.

“Such an illegitimate heir.” 

Grandma Hailey cursed and stood to her feet, walking towards Sebastian.

“You won't cause more troubles in my mansion and expect me to sit and watch you do that.” 

She said, and drag Sebastian by the ear. Just as she made to step on, she missed her step and fell to the ground with her head hitting hard on the floor.

“Mother!!!!!” Mrs. Cherry screamed.

“Grandma!” 

Carissa and Karen called in unison.

“Sebastian!” Mrs. Cherry rushed at him, holding him by the collar.

“If anything should happen to grandma Hailey, I promise to make your days cumbersome” 

Dan warned. Just immediately, an ambulance came and took grandma Hailey away.

“You are a bad luck Carissa, you and your so-called husband.” 

Karen, scolded her sister bitterly as she wept.

“I didn't do anything, it wasn't my fault. Believe me.” 

Sebastian,said talking to aunt Ava, who looked at him and walked away.

“You will be locked until grandma regains consciousness.” 

Karen, said and ordered that Sebastian be locked, so he wouldn't run away.

“Finally, your end is here evil fellow. You are a loser.”

 Someone said from behind and spat at him.

“You can't have him locked Karen, he isn't a criminal.” Carissa defended.

“He is a murderer! What greater crime is it. If he steals, he will pay and since he tried murdering grandma, I won't spare him.”

She complained bitterly.

“That was a mistake anyone could have been a victim, besides I don't know how oil was spilled on the floor.”

Carissa, defended.

“Do you want to be locked in with him?” 

She asked sternly and Carissa, kept mute she wouldn't try to offend Karen, the more. She is such a spoiled brat and when she is bent on doing or getting something, then she will surely get it.

“Grandma shouldn't have gotten up.”  

She said and with that, Karen, landed three hot slaps on her face immediately.

“Because she isn't your grandma? Are you this heartless? I warn you Carissa,stay off my path else, I will throw you to the slum. Bastard!” 

She raged at her, and Carissa could only watch in anger. She wouldn't want to compound the situation, maybe she shouldn't have said that. Likewise, she quickly ran off to her room as Karen, commanded that Sebastian, be given a good beating.

“Hit him like thrash. He should experience the pain my grandma will be going through currently.”
