THE INHERITANCE CONTRACT

İnheritor 2;

She cleared her throat. "Um, I see. It's lucky that the gentleman is here. I'm glad. Let's get the paperwork done immediately."

Just as Ms. Beril was about to continue, the sound of the door opening was heard. When she saw the man entering the room, the lawyer stood up respectfully and greeted him warmly.

"Oh, hello, Mr. Blaze. Welcome."

Lena turned slightly in her chair and glanced at the newcomer. The first thing she saw was a perfectly cut black suit and a muscular body. Even the leg lines of the tall man looked athletic. As her eyes slowly moved upward, she felt as if boiling water had been poured over her brain.

And just at that moment, she took a sip of her coffee… but when she saw his face, she coughed so hard that the coffee accidentally went down the wrong pipe.

"whtf.. I'm so sorry, ugh.. I'm so sorry," she managed to say.

The man extended his hand with a sly smile. "Hello, I'm Blaze Kade."

Lena, trying to suppress her cough, extended her hand. "Ughhmm… I'm Lena Dean. Hello."

But inside, she was screaming. This man… this man…

He was her one-night stand! The architect of that fiery night!

And she had thought he was an escort…

As the shock wave inside her slowly turned to anger, she thought, *This must be a joke.*

God… Was I a pharaoh in a past life? Did I commit blasphemy? Was I a shaman of the people of Lot? This kind of nonsense only happens in TV shows, they wouldn't even dare this much in books!

I'm going crazy! Why me, why?

I waited, I waited… And finally, I slept with some guy. And the result? This is what I get?

She put her hands on the table, trying to breathe, but the tightness in her chest wouldn't go away.

The lawyer's voice cut through Lena's thoughts.

"What? I'm sorry, I didn't understand."

"If you're ready, I'll read the will, Ms. Lena."

As if trying not to look at the man sitting across from her, Lena fixed her gaze on the lawyer.

"Of course… Go ahead."

"Hello, I'm Said Irfan. I lived a very full life. If you children are listening to these words, then I am deceased. Now, to what I left behind… First, my son, my Blaze."

Lena stole a glance at the man across from her. He was listening with clenched teeth and emotional eyes. So he really did have a child, Lena thought.

The lawyer continued.

"You have built our company with your hard work and dedication all this time. You spent your youth for this company. You never, ever disappointed me, not even once. That's why I'm giving you 70 percent of the company shares. It is as pure as your mother's white milk, my son. Also, the mansion we are currently staying in is yours.

Lena… my Lena… I wish I could be there with you and look into your eyes. The hazel of your eyes, their irises… Everything is exactly like your mother. You know?"

Lena hadn't thought she would be affected, but she was surprised when two tears slid down her cheeks.

When she noticed the sharp gaze of the man across from her, she quickly wiped her tears with the back of her hand.

"What?" she snapped. "I'm a writer. Emotional texts always affect me," she murmured. She was rambling as if trying to comfort herself.

She quickly turned her head to the lawyer. The lawyer continued.

"The hazel of your eyes, their irises… Just like your mother, you know? I watched you from afar for years. You grew up so beautifully… As rebellious as your mother, as brave as your mother. Whenever I looked at you, I always saw that woman I fell in love with. I would have loved to be your father. But sometimes people must pay the price for their sins in this world. Otherwise, I couldn't have met Suna in the afterlife."

Suna? Lena thought. My mother's name was Sunay.

"I'm leaving you all my real estate. Mansions, two orphanages, several soup kitchens, all my spice fields, and farms. Also, 30 percent of the company shares are yours."

The lawyer paused briefly.

"So, in this case, 40 percent of the total inheritance goes to Mr. Blaze, and 60 percent to you, Ms. Lena. With your permission, I'll continue.

But I have two conditions for all this.

First, for Lena… I want you to see and get to know the house where you were born. I left many memories for you, about your mother and me. So you will reside in Mardin for one year."

Lena moved with anger.

"Ms. Lawyer, this is nonsense! And you're reading this as if you approve? No heir can be forced like this! Is this legal?!"

"Actually, Ms. Lena, inheritance authority depends on the individual's own will. Especially such conditional matters… With your permission, I'll continue."

Lena grumbled in anger and crossed her arms over her chest.

Blaze, on the other hand… Still hadn't said a single word.

"My second condition is… I want the best for my daughter. That's why I'm leaving her a husband I raised myself.

For the inheritance to be transferred… Blaze Kade and Lena Dean will marry.

They will live in the same house for one year, behaving appropriately for the institution of marriage. And if they want to divorce at the end of one year, they can.

If these conditions are not met… All my wealth will be donated to the charitable organizations listed below.

Said Irfan."

Now… Two people who, just days ago, couldn't get enough of each other's bodies with lust, thinking they would never see each other again, were sitting across from each other, staring in shock.

It seemed their destiny had begun with these words…
