My Wife is a Sassy Queen

After the noise died down, Leonardo continued.

“My name is Leonardo Petrova. I do not claim to know what the Petrova lineage signifies. To me, it has always meant privilege and responsibility. It is 300 years of legacy.”

“But most importantly, it means that one person who means the world to me.”

“My grandparents – Leon Petrova and Katherine Green, passed away before I was born. My mother, Anne Petrova, passed away while giving birth to me. I spent the first few months of my life in an incubator.”

“When I got discharged, I was left in the capable hands of my elder sister – the Petrova heir – Liliana Petrova.”

“Oh, well, she is now, Liliana Petrova Smith.”

“My sister is my everything – my mother who loved me unconditionally and imbibed me with culture and principles. She is my father who protected and sheltered me, yet trained me, tempered me, and raised me to be someone capable of standing on my own.”

“She is my guide, mentor, first teacher, muse, and inspiration to strive for better. She is the one who told me to always empathize with others. Not pity or sympathize with the less fortunate, but understand my privilege and empathize.”

“She taught me the first word, helped me walk my first step, sang lullabies for me, and raised me when she was a child. She was barely 9 when she undertook the responsibility of raising me.”

“I established L&L Enterprise to lessen her burden. L&L – Liliana and Leonardo.”

“So, allow me this opportunity to share a secret. The true owner of L&L Enterprise is and has always been my sister – Mrs. Liliana Petrova Smith.”

“Everything that I own is automatically hers. The first thing I did when I turned 18 was to make a will saying so and notarize it.”

“So, please welcome on stage, my everything – the best sister a person can have – Mrs. Liliana Petrova Smith.”

Jonathan escorted his wife onto the stage and went back to his seat.

She gave him a peck on the cheek and smiled.

“Welcome home, Brother!” She said to Leonardo with a smile.

He knelt in front of her and bowed.

“We are Petrovas. We do not bow or bend.” She said simply.

“We are unbreakable!” She added as she helped him up and hugged him.

That hug was years in the waiting.

Years of separation! Years of longing!

When she turned to the stage, she had retained her regal demeanor.This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Welcome to my home!” She started.

It let everyone know who was in charge.

She was the heir. She was back. She was going to claim everything that was hers.

The entire mansion went silent for a while.

But then everyone stood up and gave her a standing ovation and bowed.

Led by the veterans, everyone else had to follow along.

Everyone invited was from the upper class.

While they did not know what was happening precisely, they could feel the shift of power.

Lester froze.

It was his worst nightmare coming true.

Liliana looked and sounded too much like Leon.

Lester thought he was hallucinating. He saw Leon on the stage looking at him with a disdainful gaze and mocking smile.

‘No! It can’t be true.’ He told himself repeatedly.

‘Leonardo is not Petrova.’

‘Moreover, why is there no mention of this mansion in the will?’

Lester’s shakiness turned into anger.

‘Is there another will? What else did Leon hide from me? Why did Anne never mention this?’

Lydia was looking at the stage agape.

‘How can this bitch Liliana have a mansion like this?’

‘No, no, no! It is just a bad dream.’

‘Why would everyone show so much respect to her?’

Rose was transfixed.

‘Who was this goody-two-shoes Anne?’

‘Was she truly this powerful?’

The netizens on the outside, however, were in a blast.

‘My Goddess raised my idol.’

‘My Goddess is awesome!’

‘My Goddess and my idol are siblings.’

‘I can’t believe my Goddess became an orphan at 9. It must have been hard to grow up like that.’

‘Rich people are always taken advantage of by others. I can only imagine how difficult childhood was for my idol.’

‘Weren’t Petrova’s the Kings before? P city is named P city after Petrovas, right?’

‘Most of the institutes named P or Kings belong to the Petrovas and now L&L. Holy Moly!’

‘Guys, I just realized Jonathan Smith ‘The Jonathan Smith’ married up.’

‘Lol! From the richest man in P city to marrying up the social ladder. Someone ought to write a book on this.’

The internet went wild once again.
