I Promised Each of My Five Grandkids a $2 Million Inheritance – in the End, No One Got It

That was the moment everything became crystal clear. “Oh, Susan! I’m sorry, but I lied about the money.

I do have $2 million, but I needed to know who would still care if it disappeared. Since you’re the only one left, you’ll get all of it.”

Susan shook her head. “Gran, I don’t need your money.

I just got a promotion at work. We’re finally doing okay. The kids have what they need.

We’re going to be fine.”

“If you want,” she continued, “put it in a trust for the kids. Let them have it for college or whatever they need when they grow up. But I never came for the money, Gran.

I came for you.”

So, I changed my will so everything would go into a trust for Susan’s children after I left this world. Susan still comes by every Monday. Not because she has to anymore, but because she wants to, because she loves me.

Was the main character right or wrong? Let’s discuss it in the Facebook comments.
