Linda Inherits Grandma’s Old Clocks

When siblings Brian and Linda were called to visit their ailing grandmother Marlene, Brian mocked Linda, expecting to receive the better inheritance. While he was given Marlene’s house, Linda received only five rusty old clocks. Though disappointed, she had already shown her love by using her own savings and Marlene’s small gift to renovate the home and care for her grandmother. Marlene passed away peacefully a week after seeing her home restored and spending cherished time with Linda.

After the funeral, Linda discovered a hidden message inside one of the clocks. It revealed that each timepiece was a rare, antique item worth \$40,000, left by Marlene’s grandfather. In total, Linda had unknowingly inherited \$200,000. She chose not to tell Brian, who believed he had received the greater gift. Linda realized her grandmother had seen her true worth and love, rewarding her with something far more valuable than property.
