So I'm A Core Heir Billionaire?

Grandpa's Call

As the night settled in, Michael, overwhelmed by the painful events, found solace in confiding the story to Kier. Tears streamed down his face as he recounted the shocking betrayal he had experienced with Agatha. Kier, understanding his friend's pain, offered a supportive presence.

Their third dorm mate, Marvin, caught wind of the heavy atmosphere in the room and decided to bring some beer to lighten the mood. Sneaking into the dorm quietly, he placed the beer on the table, giving a comforting smile to Michael.

"Hey, man. I heard what happened. We thought a little relaxation might help." Marvin said, trying to ease the heaviness in the room.

Kier nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, sometimes a cold one is all you need to take the edge off."

"You're not alone, Michael."

As they opened the beers and settled in, the night unfolded with a mix of shared stories, laughter, and a silent understanding among the friends. In the camaraderie of the moment, Michael felt a glimmer of relief amidst the pain. The dorm, once a witness to betrayal, now transformed into a haven of friendship and support as they navigated the complexities of relationships and the challenges of college life together.

As the night wore on, Michael found himself lying in bed, his mind still swirling with the events that had unfolded. The headache from the beer added an extra layer of discomfort, making it difficult for him to think clearly. The dorm room was now silent, everyone else having succumbed to sleep.

In the quiet darkness, Michael stared at the ceiling, the events of the evening playing like a cruel loop in his mind. The betrayal, the laughter, and the harsh words echoed, creating a cacophony of emotions that reverberated in his weary head.

The dim light from the window cast shadows on the room, and Michael, lost in his thoughts, struggled to find a sense of peace. The dorm, once a place of camaraderie, now felt like a cavern of solitude as he grappled with the aftermath of the night's revelations.

Startled by the sudden vibration, Michael reached for his phone in the dimly lit room. The screen illuminated his face as he checked the incoming message, wondering who could be reaching out at this late hour.

Michael stared at his phone, incredulous, as he read the unexpected message from his grandfather. The revelation that they were not as financially strained as he had believed sent a wave of disbelief through him.

"HEY, MICHAEL, it's GRANDPA!!!"

"I've got a little secret to share with you!!!"

"Turns out, we're not as strapped for cash as I let on. In fact, I'm one of those low-key super-rich folks you hear about."

"I'm transferring One Hundred Fifty Million dollars to your account as your first pocket money."

"Use it wisely, my boy!!!"

Excitedly, Michael replied.

"GRANDA, are you SERIOUS?!!!"

Michael's fingers moved hesitantly over the keyboard as he typed a response.

"You can't be one of those super-rich PEOPLE!!!"

"You're always talking about your retirement benefits......"

"And that alone can't even cover my school EXPENSES!!!"

A few moments later, a reply came.

"Believe it or not, grandson..... Our family has its SECRETS!!!"

"I've been holding off on telling you, but it's time you know the truth."

"Get ready for a significant change in your LIFE!!!"

Michael's skepticism turned into a wry smile.

"GRANDPA, YOU MUST BE JOKING AGAIN!!!"

"Seriously..... This is too much to take in!!!"

"If it's TRUE, I'll believe it when I see it!!!"

His grandfather's response was swift.

"I understand it's a lot to process."

"I'll prove it to you SOON!!!"

"In the meantime, know that I miss you and can't wait to see you on your 18th birthday."

Michael, still grappling with the unbelievable news, replied.

"Miss you too, Grandpa. But don't play around with me."

"When are you coming back to our TOWN?"

Michael's grandfather responded, shedding light on the family's complex history. He explained that he currently lived in a different, far-away city. When Michael was 14 years old, tragedy struck, and his parents died in an accident. Since then, it had been just Michael and his grandfather, forging a life together. However, his grandfather couldn't come to the city where Michael lived; instead, he had to hide his identity, presenting himself as an old man. Michael, unaware of his grandfather's true status, only received some financial support, forcing him to work part-time to cover other expenses.

The message continued.

"I'll be visiting the town of your father soon. There are things I need to take care of there. I miss your mother terribly, and I want to pay my respects at her cemetery. I hope you understand, my boy."

Michael, reading the message, felt a surge of mixed emotions. The revelation about his grandfather's true situation explained many things but also raised new questions. The complexities of their family history unfolded, leaving Michael both intrigued and saddened by the untold secrets that had shaped their lives. As the night progressed, the conversation between Michael and his grandfather delved deeper into the intricacies of their shared past and the impending changes that awaited them in the future.

Feeling a mixture of emotions and exhaustion from the day's revelations, Michael replied to his grandfather.

"I appreciate you sharing all this with me, Grandpa!!!"

"It's a lot to take in, and I need some time to process everything!!!"

"I'm heading to bed now; this headache from the beer isn't helping me think clearly!!!"

"Let's talk again soon. Goodnight, Grandpa!!!"

With that, Michael set his phone aside, allowing the room to be engulfed in silence once more. As he lay in bed, the events of the evening replayed in his mind. The complexities of his family's past and the sudden revelation about his grandfather's true identity left him in a state of contemplation. The night pressed on, and Michael drifted into a restless sleep.

The next morning, Michael woke up feeling surprisingly refreshed, the remnants of the beer-induced headache now gone. As he stretched and yawned, the events of the previous night flooded back into his consciousness. The conversation with his grandfather seemed like a surreal dream, and a smile crept across Michael's face as he considered the possibility that his grandpa was simply messing with him.

"Grandpa and his jokes!!!"

Michael chuckled to himself. He couldn't shake off the feeling that the entire revelation was an elaborate prank, especially considering the impact of the beer on his ability to think clearly the night before.

Determined to confirm or dispel the truth, Michael reached for his phone and scrolled through the messages with his grandfather. As he revisited the words exchanged in the dim light of the dorm room, a sense of skepticism lingered. The complexities of his family's past and the sudden revelation about his grandfather's true identity felt like a plot twist in a novel.

With a renewed sense of curiosity, Michael decided to unravel the mystery. He sent a message to his grandfather.

"Morning, Grandpa. About our conversation last night... you weren't joking, were you?!!!"

"I'm still trying to wrap my head around it!!!"

"Can we talk more about this?!!!"

The message hung in the digital space, awaiting a response that would either affirm or unravel the enigma of his grandfather's secret life.

As Michael anxiously awaited his grandfather's response to his morning message, a notification from his bank appeared on his phone. The message stated that he had received a total of one hundred fifty million dollars. Michael's eyes widened, and his heart raced as he stared at the screen in disbelief. The enormity of the sum left him breathless.

Before he could fully comprehend the sudden wealth that had seemingly materialized, another text popped up, this time from his grandfather. It read.

"BELIEVE it now, MICHAEL?!!!"

"Our family has its secrets!!! And it's time for you to embrace... the reality of who we ARE!!! Your life is about to change... in ways you can't IMAGINE!!!"

Staring at the screen in disbelief, Michael's mind raced with a myriad of thoughts.

"One hundred fifty million DOLLARS!!!" he muttered to himself.

"HOW CAN Grandpa send such an astronomical AMOUNT, as if it's just spare change?"

"This is beyond comprehension!!!"

The dorm room, once a place of ordinary college life, now felt charged with the extraordinary. Michael, still processing the surreal turn of events, replied to his grandfather.

"I...ah...I can't believe IT!!!"

"How is this POSSIBLE?!!!"

"What secrets have we been hiding, GRANDPA?!!!"

His grandfather's reply came swiftly.

"My dear Michael, this is just a small amount compared to the vast wealth our family holds across the globe!!!"

"It's time for you to step into the world that has been waiting for you."

"Embrace your legacy, and remember, this is only the beginning!!!"

Michael read the message in awe, grappling with the realization that the wealth he now possessed was but a fraction of the De Sanders family's vast holdings.

As the morning unfolded, Michael found himself on the precipice of a new chapter, where the truth about his family's wealth and the hidden facets of their identity would shape the trajectory of his life in unimaginable ways. The mystery of his grandfather's revelations deepened, leaving Michael to grapple with the magnitude of the changes that awaited him.
