Dark Inheritance

Chapter 5

Lucas

I arrive in front of Alexandra's door. I knock but nothing, as if she was not inside. She is certainly not awake yet. I knock harder this time and I hear steps approaching. She opens the door, and her outfit already suggests that she has spent the night partying. I enter her apart without waiting for her to invite me in

- You have 30 minutes to get ready, unless you've decided to show up for the reading of your father's last will and testament, dressed as a w***e," I tell her.

My words may be a bit mean but it's the truth, she's dressed like a slut. If only I could lock her up somewhere and never let her out again. I lie on her bed and watch her grab some clothes and go into her bathroom. I reach for her phone on her bedside table. I type in my mother's name. She has always had this code since she started having a phone. I save my number in her contacts and retrieve hers. I search her gallery, she has lots of sexy pictures, fortunately or unfortunately no nudes. She has changed so much in five years. She is more feminine, more mysterious with still a little touch of innocence that my actions have not changed. I transfer some of her pictures to myself that I will certainly use to masturbate tonight.

Alexandra finally emerges from her shower

- What are you doing on my phone?" she asks angrily

- Don't worry princess, I haven't looked at any of your pictures," I reply with a mocking smile.

She snatches her phone and puts it in her bag. I take my time getting up from her bed, which annoys her even more. She closes her front door when I finally get out and follows me to my car

After about twenty minutes we finally arrive at our destination.

The lawyer welcomes us and invites us into his office. Alexandra looks a little tense.

- I am going to read the last will and testament of Mr. Jack Davis and Mrs. Sarah Davis. They were under common law and have the same will dated one month before their death. The company of Mr. Jack Davis shall go to you equally in terms of profit, Mr. Lucas Johnson shall however have the power of decision and shall be head of the company," he read

I knew he wanted me to take over but not to have control of his company at the expense of his daughter. His daughter seemed neutral about it. She was not interested in her father's business. I have a feeling that there will be many surprises to come

- The estimated $25 million in financial assets will be split in two based on fair market value at the time of execution. The Manhattan apartment goes to Mr. Lucas Johnson and the Hampton vacation home goes to Miss Alexandra Grace Davis. The principal residence in California goes to both of you. You are prohibited from selling it, renting it, and you must reside there together for at least three years from the date of execution of the will and thereafter you may arrange to live there alternately as you see fit.

- What?", shouts Alexandra, looking at me with a disgusted look

- These are your parents' last wishes.

- I'm studying, I can't live there.

- You have to submit to what is asked of you. You'll have to find a solution," the lawyer tell her.

She just doesn't want to live in that house, and she uses her studies as an alibi when it's less than 30 minutes away by car

- The late Sarah Davis’s art and clothing belong to you, Miss Alexandra Grace Davis, and Mr. Davis’s accessories and clothing belong to you, Mr. Lucas Johnson. And the last thing is that Mr. Lucas Johnson has full power of attorney of all property intended for Miss Alexandra Grace Davis until she finishes graduate school and begins working."

- "No, he can't have power of attorney, I don't want anything to do with him," Alexandra screams and can't hold back her anger anymore.

I'm f*****g ecstatic!

- Once again, Miss Davis, these are your parents' last wishes. This is what closes the will. Do you accept the conditions attached to your inheritance?

- Yes", I answer.

Alexandra nods, cleaning a tear from her cheek. We leave the office, and she heads for the exit as I thank the lawyer. She is already getting into a cab when I leave the building. I get into my car and head to the airport for New York, I still have a few months to manage my business and find a trustworthy person who will manage it for me for a while. And I will have to come back very soon to take over Jack's company. I asked the lawyer to freeze all the bank accounts until the execution of the will just to piss Alexandra off because it will cancel the rent payments for her apartment and all the automatic transfers that my mother was making to her. Her father wasn't sending her anything because he wanted her to learn to work to pay for her things. If she wants anything in the next few years, she will have to ask me, nicely. It's a good thing I saved my number on her phone. All right sister, the game is just beginning. We'll see how long you can go without a penny.
