Old man Williams was a very rich man. He had houses, cars, lands, hotels, and a big company. But now he was getting old and weak. One day, as he sat quietly in his room, he looked at a family picture and asked himself, “Who really loves me in this house? Who will stay by my side when I’m sick and helpless?” So Williams called his trusted lawyer, Mr.
John, and his personal doctor, Dr. Maxwell, to his mansion. He sat them down in his study and said in a soft voice. I want to pretend that I’m very sick. I want to see who in my family truly loves me, who will care for me if I’m dying. The lawyer looked surprised but nodded. That’s a wise idea, sir. But please hide part of your money.
I’ll open another account for you and move half of your welfare. That way, if anyone is pretending, they won’t find everything. William smiled and agreed. The doctor also nodded. I will tell your family that you have cancer and only 6 months to live. I’ll act like it’s true. And that was how the plan started. The next morning, Williams began to cough loudly.
He stayed in bed and stopped going outside. He refused to eat well and looked very weak. his wife Agatha and the children Frank the first son, David the second son, Cynthia the first daughter, and Rose the second daughter all became worried. Let’s call the doctor. Cynthia shouted. Soon Dr. Maxwell came and examined him in front of the whole family.
