Early in the morning, close and not-so-close relatives met at a notary’s office. Everyone hoped that the deceased had left them a good amount of money. The notary was late, and everyone was nervous. How long can we wait? I want to find out if my father left me anything, so I can go,” Adam’s eldest daughter was nervous. “Aunt Emma, you need to be more reserved. You should be grieving. “After all, my father’s dead,” Mike said. “Stop calling me that. I’m still young. “Call me by my first name,” Emma said, irritated. No matter how much you wear makeup and do rejuvenation procedures, you won’t get any younger,” the guy said angrily. Finally, the notary entered the office. He carefully examined everyone present and took a folder with documents from the bedside table.
– “Are you ready for me to read them out?” he asked the audience. Everyone nodded in the affirmative. The notary opened the folder, smiled mysteriously, and began to read Adam’s last will and testament. “I have left you all an inheritance. Only to get it, you have to find it. As a child, I lived with my parents in the countryside. We didn’t have much, but we lived together and happily. In our old house there is a safe, all the money is there, but to open it, you need to find the key. The notary will give you a map and make sure you follow the rules. Good luck, my dear!” Everyone sat in silence for a few minutes, no one could believe that the old man decided to play games with them even after his death. His eldest daughter, Emma, was the first to speak. “My husband and I are going to the village right now.
Who’s coming with me? Mike and I are disinheriting. Dad always liked to play tricks on us, I think there’s a catch, and we don’t need the money,” said Adam’s younger daughter. Emma, her husband and other relatives went to the village. They completed one task after another. They went into the barn to see the animals, looked for clues in the hay, and crawled through the mud. The villagers stopped what they were doing to watch them suffer. In seconds, Emma’s designer dress turned into a dirty, torn rag. When they found the key and opened the safe, everyone’s mouths dropped open. Inside the safe was a note and a lot of lollipops. “The money went to a charity, and you got what you deserve. Thank you for making my villagers happy.”
