Hawthorne~ Grayson

Ch 2: Lots of people want to kill me

Everyone was staring at me and by that I mean everyone. And Grayson Hawthorne was death glaring at me as if wishing he had laser eyes and could cut me at once. I wish the ground could open up and suck me in.

"Who the hell is she?" Zara asked
"Why did he leave everything to her? This must be some sort of mistake" Skye exclaimed.

I wanted to say the only mistake here is your birth but I said, "Ya, there must be some mistake."

"See, even Ellie agrees with me!" Skye said, oh how I wanted to punch her face knowing she intentionally got my name wrong.

"There is no mistake." Mr Ortega said "The will is unbreakable, and anyone who challenges any person's share will forfeit their own. The will is ironclad."

"Traps upon traps, riddles upon riddles" Jameson said still tipsy and shirtless

"I need some air" Avery panted and then ran away, Libby ran after and left me all alone in this room where everyone probably wanted me dead. I should start live-streaming just in case I died at least someone would know and get me justice.

"You should leave," Grayson ordered, and the way he looked at me, I had surely gotten on his bad side.

"Technically gray.." Alisa said, "This is her house now"

Everyone again death glared at me. I was happy being a millionaire, with my singing, photography and writing I could have easily become a billionaire in around ten years and would have made it big all by myself but no some random old man had to give me his money so he could get credit to my success ugh.

"Technically, I don't want any of this," I said while pointing toward the room. "And I only came here cause I was bored and I have some very important work to do, so I am gonna go back to my own house which I have no interest in leaving."

Then a man, who Libby told me was Oren came towards me. 
"Oren! You work for our family." Zara said
"I worked for Mr Hawthorne and it was his last request that I continue to work for Ms. Edeth Rose Cadwas." He replied

"I don't need security" I exclaimed
"You do need security, and not just to protect you from us!" Alexander Hawthorne enthusiastically said.
"Take a step back please Xander." Oren said.
"Peace!" Xander said dramatically holding his hands up. "I come in peace!"

"Xander is right! Everyone is going to want a piece of you," Jameson said, "This has the story of the century written all over it" He smiled.

Oh my god! Everyone here was crazy

"Well, I'm just gonna go, bye!" I said nervously and then I sprinted, I had to get out of that madhouse, if I stayed those people would kill me and I am too young to die.

Oren and Alisa ran after me as if, if they left me alone I would die.

After about an hour or two Alisa and Oren took Avery, Libby and me to a really pretty and big five star hotel. 

"I can't afford a room here" Avery said
"I'll pay don't worry --" I was interrupted by Alisa
"Edeth you own this hotel" Alisa said calmly as if it was normsl
"The fuck" I said shocked
"Exactly" Avery said

We both shared a shocked look.
