Mary has had a hard life filled of disappointments. Beneath the opulent lifestyle her parents seemed to have, was a horrifying lie.

The heartbreaking story revolves around Mary’s beloved grandmother, a kind and loving woman. She had always intended to bequeath Mary a good portion of her enormous fortune. Mary’s folks, though, had other intentions.

Honest and grateful, they intended to defraud Mary of her due inheritance. They used will tampering to ensure Mary received little more than a $50 Walmart gift card each year. Mary, meantime, was battling for her life as her parents drove lavish cars and took expensive vacations.

Mary had a profoundly different existence when she discovered this shocking truth. She was moved to seek justice in her grandmother’s memory and to learn how much dishonesty there was by it. The powerful lesson of this finding is that truth and justice can prevail even in the face of adversity.

For Mary, her real bequest is much more important than the money. It symbolizes her victory over lying and finally enables her to accept the life she has been wrongfully denied for far too long. Given the truth, Mary is now ready to face the world head-on and confidently take on the life she so richly deserves.
