Theo couldn't believe his luck as he stared at the notification on his phone. Fifty million dollars! It felt surreal like a dream come true. He had been struggling for so long, and now, this unexpected notification seemed to proclaim a brighter future.

" Or am I dreaming!! " He said to himself.

He still couldn't believe that a whopping amount of fifty million was sent into his account. 

Filled with joy, he stood up and smiled, thinking all his problems had been solved. 

But then, he began to think again. Where did the money come from? He didn't have anybody to give him an amount like that.

He was sure it wasn't Gemma or his adoptive parents who sent the money. 

" If they didn't send the money. Who did send the money? Was it by mistake? " 

He nodded his head and thought of what to do after he had rested in excitement.

" When I'm done, I'll pay a visit to the back and ask for my old balance. "

*******

 Eager to head to the bank and confirm the deposit, he set out on his wa there, the excitement bubbling inside him.

But as he walked through the bustling streets, his joy turned to confusion and fear when he hit a car while absorbed in his thoughts.

" Ohhh!! Thank God!! " He heaved a sigh of relief while cleaning the car.

He was about to leave when the owner of the car got out of the car and called, " What did you just do? "

Theo raised his head slowly, and his heart was out of his chest.

The owner was inside!!!!

Theo walked towards the man and came clean, " I cleaned your car because I hit it. There is a 1 percent chance of the car…. "

He cuts him off, " Bruising!!! "

Theo was astonished at his answer. Like, who bruises a car? 

The man continued glaring at him, " I don't blame you. You seem like a person who can never afford a car in your life and the next to come. "

Ouch!! Theo was hurt again by his insults, but a wave of confidence entered him.

" My priority isn't in big cars, sir. I deeply apologize for not spo….I mean bruising your car. "

The man scoffed and retaliated, "You are very shameless for saying that. Do you know how much this car is worth? It can buy and sell you. " 

Theo nodded and didn't utter a word because he needed to get somewhere, fast!!!.

" Don't you ever hit my car!!! If you want yours, go buy yours. Like you'll ever buy " the man laughed while going back to his car.

Theo's hands formed into fists and mumbled, " I hope the money is real, if it is, I can't wait to show these losers what I've got "

After what felt like an eternity, the man drove off, leaving Theo shaken but resolute. 

Gathering himself, he continued on his way, the unexpected confrontation weighing heavily on his mind. 

He got to his bank, asked about the money, and to his greatest surprise was told he owned the money.

No fraudulent activities were performed on his account. The money was for THEOPHILUS HAYZES, HIM!!!

He walked home in bewilderment and happiness. He couldn't explain how he got the money and who sent it .

 Just as Theo entered his room in doubt, he noticed a paper on his table. That is strange!! 

He didn't leave any notes before leaving for the bank. He picked it up and scanned the paper.

"Meet me at Zara's luxury hotel to learn more about the money," it read, the words cryptic and enigmatic.

Theo's heart raced with a mix of curiosity and apprehension. Who had left this note for him, and how did they know about the money? 

Despite the doubts, a spark of hope ignited within him, and he couldn't shake the feeling that this was the turning point he had been waiting for.

 Wanting to know more, Theo made his way to the luxurious towering hotel. Stepping through the entrance, he was greeted by a warm, welcoming atmosphere that seemed to envelop him in a sense of comfort. 

" Theo. Be focused, your life starts now!!! "

The opulence of the surroundings contrasted sharply with the worries that still lingered in his mind.

As he made his way through the hotel's lavish corridors, Theo's anticipation grew with each step. When he reached the designated meeting spot, a figure emerged from the shadows, revealing a gentleman with a kind smile and eyes that held a glint of mystery.

"Paul, I've been expecting you," the man said, his voice carrying a note of reassurance. "I have some information about the money you received. It's tied to a family legacy that you

u never knew existed."

" THEOPHILUS HAYZES, MEET YOUR FATHER!!! "

" DAD??? "
