After their father’s death, Dawn’s sister Charlotte inherited the family house while Dawn only received their father’s old watch. Two weeks later, Charlotte heartlessly kicked Dawn out, leaving her with nowhere to go. Desperate, Dawn called their lawyer, Matthew, who revealed that their father had predicted this and left a secret inheritance plan for her.
Matthew explained that their father had split nearly two million dollars between them, but Charlotte’s share depended on her allowing Dawn to live in the house. If she refused, she would get nothing and be stuck with the house’s debts. The code to access Dawn’s money was cleverly hidden on the back of her father’s watch.
When Charlotte learned about the debts, she called Dawn in a panic, begging for help. Dawn, remembering how Charlotte had treated her, calmly refused, saying, “Maybe if you’d been nicer to me, I’d feel bad.” She hung up, leaving Charlotte to face the consequences of her greed.
With Matthew’s help, Dawn found a cozy apartment and prepared to start college, finally free to build her own future. As she walked past the family home one evening, she saw a “SOLD” sign and felt at peace, knowing her father had protected her even after his death.
