Hey ya'll! Sorry for not updating so soon. I was stuck and I didn't know what to write, so I read some books to find something and yes, I found something. Hop ya'll enjoy!
Grandpa turned to Inuyasha and said proudly, "Kagome is our breadwinner, you know. She works very hard to buy her mother medicine, she even stopped school."
Somehow, Inuyasha felt pity on her. She's not what he thinks she is after all.
Then suddenly there was a knock on the door. "Come in" Grandpa said in his quivery voice.
A man of about 60 years old and gray hair perked his head on the door and asked, "Is this Mrs. Higurashi's ward?"
"Yes, it is." Grandpa replied.
The man smiled and entered the room and closed the door behind him. "Hello, I'm George Tan, I'm a lawyer." He smiled.
"Hello, Mr. Tan. May I know what you are doing here? Is there any problem?" Mrs. Higurashi asked.
"Oh, no there isn't, Mrs. Higurashi. I am so relieved that I've found you at last. I've been searching for you for the last 5 years." He said.
"Please sit down," grandpa said and offered him a seat. George gladly took his sit and sighed with pleasure. "Let me introduce you to my grandchildren. This is Kagome Higurashi, my eldest granddaughter. This is Souta Higurashi, my youngest and this is Kagome's friend, Inubaba." He said. Souta giggled then stopped when Kagome glared at him.
Inuyasha crossed his arms, a vein popped on his forehead, "It's Inuyasha, old man. Inuyasha Tashio." He corrected him.
"Ah yes, Tashio. I have the pleasure of meeting your father's acquaintance." George nodded respectively at Inuyasha. "Anyway, I came here for business, it's about your husband, Mrs. Higurashi."
"What about my husband?" Mrs. Higurashi looked pale and confused.
"Your husband has left your eldest daughter, Kagome I believe, an inheritance. Mr. Higurashi left a mansion and a plantation to be inherited by Kagome. Of course, he didn't left your youngest son for nothing. He left him a good amount of money and a mansion as well." He said as he ruffled some papers on his folder. Everyone was in silence, nobody knew that Mr. Higurashi was a wealthy man. Kagome was only young when his father died, before Souta was born. She vaguely remembers her childhood but she remembers staying in a huge room with scary gargoyles on the wall.
"I thought my husband was bankrupted before he died, I didn't know we'd inherit something." Mrs. Higurashi spoke at last.
"Well, yes but you see, he was able to pay his debt by selling some of his businesses. There are only 4 left, which you will inherit, Mrs. Higurashi, all of them has been on hiatus since your husband died." He explained.
Kagome rushed to her mother and said, "Mama, we'll be rich! I can go to school again!" She smiled at her daughter, her heart overflowing with joy.
"I'm afraid you won't be getting your inheritance yet." George said. Kagome stared at him like he was some kind of freak. Mrs. Higurashi's smile was wiped off from her face. "What do you mean?" Mrs. Higurashi asked.
"Your husband instructed that to be able to inherit your inheritance, your eldest daughter must marry before she is 25. If she is not married by the time she's 25, everything will be donated to a charity." He sighed.
"But I'm only 19. We need money for our daily needs." Kagome said.
"You will receive an allowance of 100,000 dollars a month until Kagome is married." He said as he read his papers. "He specifically suggested the Kagome should marry his best friend's eldest son, Inutashio's eldest son, Sesshomaru." He said.
Inuyasha felt the world coming to an end. "You want Kagome to marry my half brother?" he stared at George.
Grandpa looked at Inuyasha and frowned, "Sesshomaru is your older brother?" he asked in astonishment.
Inuyasha shrugged, "But he's married, he's got a mate now." He protested.
George read his papers and frowned, "Ah, yes then she should marry his younger bother then, that would be you Mr. Inuyasha."
Kagome and Inuyasha looked at each other and blinked. Marry Kagome? They just met a couple of hours ago, this is ridiculous. "That is only a suggestion of course, you may not marry Inuyasha if you don't wish to, Ms. Higurashi. I believe your father doesn't want to force you to marry someone you dislike." George interrupted. Both of them sighed of relief. "Also, while your awaiting for Kagome to be married. You will live on the house or mansion rather."
Yay! I'll update once in two weeks from now one. I know how it feels to be waiting for an author to update. The chapters will be longer of course.
