Revenge on my Ex husband

Chapter2

Risana’s Pov

“She is here.’’ I heard Izora’s voice as soon as I pushed the glass door of my father's living room open. I guessed she did that just to announce her disgusting presence. To refresh my memory that she was now Nevan’s girlfriend.

No, that she was now his mistress.

“Since we all are gathered here, why don’t we start already? I think some of us have better things to do instead of this.” Nevan eyed me as he turned his direction towards the Lawyer, who was just seated opposite him.

“ Wasn’t it normal that it is only family members that are meant to attend this kind of gathering? Why bring this w***e along with your miserable self?” I blurted out as I felt a strange surge of anger filled my entire body. What is jealousy? Or was it because I look like the loser my dead step- sister always called me.

“ I know you want so much attention, but I can't give that to you darling. I have no choice than to advertise my attention to someone that is better off than an empty human.” He murmured, earning a low laugh from Izora as she patted him gently on his shoulders. It was clear that she was encouraging him to disrespect me more, to continue humiliating me.

Empty?

This was the same man that told me the reason why he breathes. This is absolutely ridiculous, Now he calls me an Empty human.

“ Why don't we just start with it already? The ring shop will be closing anytime soon.” Izora said, faking a smile as she lifted her slender fingers in the air. I guess Nevan had promised her the moons just as he promised me ten years back.

The lawyer cleared his throat as though he was announcing his presence that we somehow ignored, his eyes quickly met mine he then adjusted his Navy suit as he opened the large file in front of him. I heard Izora chuckled followed by her low laugh.

What was so funny to her? She wasn’t supposed to be here. I get that my father raised her as his daughter, he even showered her with more love than he did when it came to my own affairs. That was enough reason for the loose w***e to spread her dirty legs for Nevan.

I clenched my dress as I sat opposite my father’s lawyer, my heart beating rapidly against my chest. This could end well, it will end in my favour, I told myself inwardly. My father cannot despise me so much as to leave nothing under my own name.

“Firstly, I appreciate you for coming here to honor your father, Mrs Risana. I will go straight to the point, this is finally and last testament of Mr Hazem Lewin. Everything I will be reading now isn’t fabricated, it is nothing but the last and original statement of the business tycoon.”

My heart pounded, as I rubbed my sweaty palm together. This is the final statement that will determine my fate, the fate of my unborn rejected child.

He continued with a calm voice “ To my daughter, Izora Lugas. I call you my daughter because I take you as one, for your unwavering love for my daughter– Risa. I leave the villa in your name and also an annual allowance will be allocated to you starting from today.”

I scoffed as I stared directly at Izora, she flashed an evil grin at my direction. Who knows if she must have seduced my father into giving her the properties. There is nothing this sly b***h won’t do, just as she did to have Nevan by her side.

“To my darling daughter, I am sorry for making you go through all you had to because of me, I just needed a better life for you, the one I failed to give your mother– May her soul rest in peace. I leave full ownership of the Lewin’s mansion, my personal savings, and controlling shares in Callahan’s enterprises under your care.”

My breath caught in my throat as tears slipped down my face. My father had….. just left everything for me, he just stated that he loved me for the first time in twenty four years. I glanced towards Nevan’s direction, frustration clouded his eyes, what was he expecting? For him to have all properties and still have the medical insurance to take care of his w***e. I guess that was the reason she always insisted on always going to see father.

“I will be ungrateful, if I don’t show my gratitude to my best friend’s father, I was indeed a daughter to him when he no longer had one after that ugly incident that claimed his family’s life.” She muttered as I forced myself not to laugh at her stupidity. She must realise now that I had more power now, I could just stop the annual allowance after all my father was already dead.

“But,” the lawyer added gently, “ there is one condition.” Of course that has always been my father’s way of doing things. He promised to hand over all his properties to me on condition— If I choose to marry his partner’s son, Nevan.

“What is the condition Mr Smith?” I asked with curiosity. I hope it was something that has nothing to do with me and this cheating scumbag. Mr Smith looked at me with a warm smile as he cleared his throat.

“ All these I have listed will not be under Risana’s name but under her husband’s. He will have full legal rights to all the properties I have entrusted in your hands. The sole purpose of this is to enhance oneness and togetherness in your marriage.” I felt like a heavy weight was placed upon me as my head began to spin.

“I guess the love he meant was hatred.” Nevan said laughing out loud as humiliation clouded me. I guess he was right, my father hated me so much and trusted Nevan over me.

“That will be all for now. Feel free to contact me if there is a problem.” Mr Smith said as he packed his laptop bag and headed towards the glass door.

“I guess the only thing you will be getting today is this envelope my dear wife.” Nevan walked towards my direction as he handed over a brown envelope to me.
