Bella
The burial was simple and peaceful. Dad hated large parties anyway. Elizabeth and Tracy came with us but did not stay for the after party. I went straight to my room as my head hurt.
I have done less crying. After all it will not change anything. I held on to the hope that God cared and he will make a way. Daniel has been very kind and I noticed he was trying to protect me from his mum and sister as much as he could. But like Daniella said he could not help me. I spent the night packing all my stuff. I intended to leave with the lawyers in the morning after they read the will.
During mum's busy days, I took my car out of the house to my apartment, as I was scared she may not let me leave with it. The next morning I woke up early took my bath and dressed up to go. Gladness brought my breakfast at about seven thirty am. I eat and decide to be happy. It will be my last time in this room. Mum could not stop me even if she want to. I am an adult by law and right. I refuse to stay back in her torture.
Gladness came to call me by ten am that the lawyers were around and I was needed to join them. I did not have much things left so I asked Gladness to help me take my thing down stirs though the back yard.I was still scared Mrs. Wisdom may try to stop me.
I joined them in the sitting room and I could see Mrs. wisdom was very curious and uneasy to hear what the lawyers had to say. Like I told you when we first come Mr. Matt Wisdom did not write a define will here with me is the letter written by him as a prove to share his properties between his children should he die without preparing his will. He gave the letter to Daniel who reads it to confirm the hand writing then pass it to me I looked at the letter there was no mention of me. I passed it to Danielle who reads it and pass to her mum.
This is my husband hand writing Mrs. Wisdom said but there is no mention of Bella, so why is she here? she asked angrily. She is a part of the Wisdom family, so she has to be here the lawyer answer.
Now the team and I have worked on all Mr. Matt wisdom properties and we have shared them into two equal half. As you know Mr. Matt Wisdom was the president of the wealth empire which in total is worth billions of dollars. He owns 40% of the company shares that belongs to the Wisdom family and so we have shared it twenty percent each.
Excuse me sir, Danielle called the lawyers attention. The man stop talking and looked at her. What do you mean by 40% of the company shares that belongs to the Wisdom family, she asked.
The Wisdom family own the largest share of the Wealth empire and 40% of that share is what your father owns the lawyer answer. Yes I get that but how come he.... Danielle let's her words go, I noticed her mum gave her the shut up look.
Can I go on now? the lawyer asked and Danielle nod her head with confusion written all over her face. Now that I think of it why will he own only 40 percent of the family's shares? Are there other family members that I don't know about? If they are, why don't I know them? why are they not here right now? I asked myself.
We have also divide all of his landed properties into two the lawyer continues, so Daniel will take over properties in appendix A. while Danielle will take appendix B. He explained.
My name is Mr.Jame I am the banker in charge of his account and he has left his son Daniel as his next of kin.
What! Mrs. Wisdom asked in surprise I was the one he use for his next of kin in all his account she said.
You are right madam, he changed that three years ago he said and handed over document to her, that I concluded were backing the changes. She looked at them, then rolled her Eyes and handed them back to him.
I sat there praying there will be a mention of trust fund for me. The men sat quietly for some minutes and I lost all hope. No trust fund for me I came to the heart breaking realization and took a deep breath to calm myself down.
