As news spread of their father's death, the phone calls began coming in.
The Uncles asked if the sons had heard from Smith.
Who was Smith they asked.
You will find out they were informed.
And they did.
The day after they buried their father, the Uncles took the sons to Smith's office.
A plush office with cherry wood furniture.
It was in this cherry wood office that the sons were informed that their Grandmother had left them money.
The money had been been kept in a trust and their father had been living off the interest.
It was a sizable amount of money but by no means a fortune.
The money was to be divided up equally between them.
The middle son was gleeful and giggly.
The eldest son had questions.
It was part of the secret that occupied their lives.
This was the root.
The family money.
Now they knew how how they had.
A good sizable sum but by no means a fortune.
But they had some answers.
The eldest son got busy putting the pieces together of their father's estate .
While the middle son become more entangled with the secret.

I am loving this series!!! NO MORE SECRETS. While my father had a great earning capacity we never were "wealthy." But another family that our family was close with fought and continue to fight about money. They had/have a lot of it. I am glad we never had a lot of money. We have a lot of LOVE and I would take that anyday!
