The days went fine like always, until it turned dark on a particular morning.

Wednesday morning, at around seven forty five A. M, Don Pablo Montreal took his last breathe on earth.

The news of his death went wild like a forest fire. Spreading far and near by the media, who took up the shocking news and shared to the world.

"At around five zero four in the morning, Don Pablo Montreal fell into a terrible state and was rushed to the hospital for immediate help. The richest man took his last breathe after the doctors tried all their best to save his life from an illness he's been battling for some time. We pray for his gentle soul to find peace in the heavens, " The news announced.

Tears filled the eyes of many. Don Pablo's mansion was filled up with wealthy friends of the old man. All in black to mourn the death of a great business man.

Carlos, who sat there holding his grandfather's photo, couldn't help but stay frozen like a lost man.

Emily sat next to him, pacifying his broken heart. Assuring him that she'll be with him always.

"He's gone Emily. Who will I look up to when I need a Pat on the back? " Carlos asked, staring at Don Pablo's photo.

Emily feels sad for her lover. Wrapping her arms around him to show her support.

The guests feel Carlos' pain and sympathize with him. Pleading with him to take heart.

Mr and Mrs Sanandrian sat next to Carlos and promised to be with him always as his father and mother.

"We are here for you son. We are also your parents," They said, hugging him.

Everyone showed their support in Carlos.

The mourning of Don Pablo lasted for some more days, until the day of his burial.

The cemetery is filled up with mourners far and near to mourn the late Don Pablo Montreal, under the showers from above. They all stood around his grave, watching his coffin being laid six feat into the ground.

"In the name of the Father, and of the son, and of the Holy spirit. We pray his soul find rest in the heavens with the Lord," a priest prayed under the cold rain, with a man holding an umbrella above his head.

Mourners and weepers couldn't hold back their tears. Their soul were heavy due to the loss of this blessed soul.

Emily stood beside Carlos, as they watched the priest pick up a shovel from aside, facing Carlos.

"It's time my son. Do the honour of tossing in the first soil on the grave of your grandfather, late Don Pablo Montreal," the priest said to Carlos.

He nods and takes the shovel from the priest. Scooping the soil and tossing it on the coffin of Don Pablo.

"Father, accept this beloved soul into your kingdom. Give him the heavenly rest he deserves. Let him find peace in your kingdom, Amen!" The priest prayed.

"Amen!" The multitude chorused.

After the burial, everyone went to their respective home, after sympathizing with Carlos once again.

The grandson of the late Don Pablo Montreal, took their condolences calmly, before leaving the cemetery for his grandfather's mansion.

Arriving inside with Emily and her family, Carlos took out his phone and contacted his grandfather's lawyer.

"Yes, yes. I'm at the mansion now. You can come over. I am ready," Carlos said, ending the call.

He faces the Sanandrian's and let's out a smirk. "That was my grandfather's lawyer. He's on his way here to read out my grandfather's will. "

"That's lovely!" Mrs Sanandrian jubilated.

Emily hugged Carlos and showed her happiness in the news. "In a few hours, you'll be crowned the owner of Don Pablo's empire, " Emily said, kissing Carlos.

Carlos proudly offered Emily and her family a seat in his grandfather's large living room. Giving them the go ahead to request for whatever they want.

"You're in my mansion. Enjoy yourselves," He bragged.

Carlos signaled his grandfather's personal manservant, Frank, to serve everyone his late grandfather's expensive wine.

"You need to get used to me now, " Carlos said to Frank. Crossing his legs with pride.

The manservant, who didn't like Carlos, submitted to Carlos' order. Going in to get the expensive wine.

"This is a beautiful mansion indeed, Carlos. Your grandfather sure has taste in fancy things, " Jeremy commented, hovering his eyes around the room.

Carlos proudly corrected Jeremy. Telling him to refer to the mansion as his. Jeremy gladly does as he wants. Referring to Carlos as the Don.

Frank, the manservant, arrives with the expensive wine and serves them all.

Carlos lifts his glass up and makes a toast to his new beginning. "Today will Mark the day Carlos Montreal became a Trillionaire. And you all will witness it," He bragged.

The Sanandrian's joined him in celebrating his new life. Congratulating him with Joy.

While they were rejoicing, Don Pablo's lawyer stepped into the living room and met Carlos drinking with the Sanandrian's.

When Carlos saw him, he welcomed the lawyer openly. "Come, join us, " He offered, helping the lawyer to a seat.

But the lawyer turns down the drink offered by Carlos.

"It's amusing that you showed up fast after the call. But it's still fine. The earlier the better," Carlos chuckled.

The lawyer hummed at him.

Carlos sits down with the Sanandrian's, waiting for the lawyer to start. But the young man just stared at them.

"What's the hold up? " Carlos asked the lawyer. "Start reading the will. You are here now, so you know what must be done, " Carlos said.

"My apologies Mr Montreal, but I can't start until everyone is present," The lawyer said.

"Everyone is present? Who else are you waiting for?" Carlos asked, wondering who the lawyer is referring to.

That's when the lawyer directed his eyes to the entrance and rose to his feet.

Seeing him, Carlos and the Sanandrian's faced the entrance and are shocked by who they saw.

"Savador?!" Emily called.

Savador stepped into the living room, with his eyes fixed on both Sanandrian and Carlos.
