Billionaire Contract Marriage For Heirs

It was like being struck by lightning in the middle of the day when Eve heard the news. The sky darkened.

"NO!!!" Eve screamed and fell to her knees, her mobile phone slipping out of her hand.

Eve cried her heart out. It startled the whole house. Including her sister Adeline. They looked at Eve with confused looks.

"Hey! What's wrong Eve? What happened?" asked Adeline, her sister.

Eve stammered. "Mum, Dad..."

"What's wrong with them? Didn't they just go to Paris? Have they arrived yet?" Adeline looked at him confused.

Eve shook her head and continued to cry while covering her face. Eve couldn't take it, Oh my God.

"Switch on the TV," Eve said softly.

Her sister Adeline looked at her with confusion. "TV? What does this have to do with TV? You are so weird!"

"I said, you switch on the TV! Don't ask too many questions!" Eve said starting to get annoyed. Eve began to lose control of herself.

"Ok! Ok! But don't get angry like that! I'm just asking. What exactly is wrong with you, Heh?" Adeline raised both hands.

Adeline slowly moved to the TV room and switched it on as requested.

"We hereby inform you that the plane with flight Boeing A1225678 with the destination Paris, France had an explosive accident before finally sinking in an ocean. And all passengers on board were pronounced dead! "

One by one they read out the names of the passengers.

"Mr Bryan Adams and Mrs Stephanie Adams.... That's all the information we can give you!"

"No! This is not true! Please someone tell me that this isn't true, right? Eve please tell me this is all a joke! Mum and Dad must be safe, right?" Adeline stared at Eve in disbelief.

"Calm down, Adeline. Everything will be okay. You still have me. I'll always take care of you," Eve coaxed her 11-year-old sister.

Eve moved to hug her and caress her back as she continued to cry. Finally, they cried together. They continued to sob in the middle of the TV room with the TV still on that had changed the broadcast. Even Eve did not know or care about it.

Eve cried so hard that they were exhausted. Until Eve felt the weight of her sister's body on her.

"Adeline!" Eve shouted.

Adeline fainted.

Today their house was visited by many people who came to express their condolences, they have no family other than their uncle and aunt who have been present here following the funeral process.

They decided to hold the funeral when they felt there was no hope, not long after the announcement.

Their uncle was named Alexander, he was the only brother of Eve's father. Although they have different mothers. Or rather Eve's father's half-brother. They offered to help Eve.

After the funeral was over they didn't go straight home, they cried at their parents' graves, and when they had finished crying, they returned home. Meanwhile, Uncle and Aunty had gone home first.

A part of their hearts felt pulled out, as if they had no grip.

They were surprised when they arrived home, there were two large suitcases placed in front of their door.

They walked over to them, and sure enough. It was Eve and her sister's suitcases. "What is this?" Eve said to herself.

"What's wrong, Eve? Why are our suitcases outside?" asked Adeline.

"I don't know, Del! I don't know either. Let's find out!"

Eve knocked on the locked door of their house.

Knock!

Knock!

"Uncle! Aunty! Please open the door!" Eve shouted so loudly that her throat started to hurt.

It wasn't long before the door opened. There was a face, Aunt Laurine, Uncle Alex's wife.

"Aunty, thank goodness." Eve said smiling.

"Aunty, why are our suitcases outside?" she asked.

Before Auntie could answer their question, someone asked from behind.

"What's wrong, dear?" he asked gently. It was Uncle Alexander.

They looked at the two people in turn.

"What is it, Uncle? Can you explain it to us?" he asked, beginning to feel that something was wrong here.

"What else do you need to explain, Heh? Please leave our house!" Uncle was about to close the door but Eve held him back.

"Your house? Wait a minute Uncle, there seems to be something wrong here. Isn't this our house? I mean, our parents' house?" Eve started to get confused.

"Well, it was right before you switched and made us your guardians. Then my brother's house and car belonged to us! So, please get out of here!" she said sarcastically.

"Transfer? What guardianship? Don't joke Uncle! Let us in!" Eve tried to push him.

But two big men pulled Eve away.

"Let go! Let go of me! This is my house! My parents' house! You have no right to take it!" Eve shouted struggling with both hands held by the two men.

"Oh, yeah? Look at this!" he said throwing it in Eve's face." It's a copy that you're handing over exactly all the wealth and the house and everything in it to me! Alexander! Stupid girl! Hahahaha...!" Uncle Alexander laughed.

Eve took it and read it but when did she sign this letter?

Eve ran up to him, "So Uncle lied to me? Uncle is sneaky! How could you lie to me! You are cruel!" Eve tried to hit him with her strength.

Uncle looked angry, "You little brat!"

Plak!

He slapped Eve on the cheek. Eve winced in pain and the corner of her lip was bleeding, tasting rancid and salty.

"Uncle! You can't do this to us! Help us! If we have to leave here, where will we live, Uncle? Please help us...I'll do anything as long as you don't kick us out of here uncle..." Eve knelt at her uncle's feet.

But then what she did was kick Eve very hard in the chest. Her chest hurt a lot. Eve fell down.

"Eve!" Her sister Adeline rushed over but her movement was blocked by two big men.

"Get them out! I don't want to know how, get them out of here!" Uncle Alex said.

Eve stared at him, Eve ran back after him. But again some big men dragged her, Eve screamed rebelliously but it seemed meaningless to them. Until finally Eve was thrown into the street along with her sister.
