You see, you’re grandmother always had someone on the side.
She thought I didn’t know about it, but I just kept my mouth shut. Better to not rock the boat, eh? Your mom is the product of that relationship.
I’ve known this from the start.
I don’t have a single legitimate child. But that’s neither here nor there because you have been like a son to me. That’s why I’m leaving you the Chevy and little to anyone else.
They all know about their real granddad.
They kept you out of it because we were so close and you’re the youngest. But you deserve to know that I love you no matter what.
Enjoy the ride, Grandpa. I won’t admit it easily, but I teared up.
It was so touching. I drove the rest of the way home with a huge smile on my face.
Despite the shocking revelation, I knew Grandpa loved me, and now I had the Chevy back with the person it truly belonged with.
I was so happy, I forgot about the envelope. I picked it up from the ashtray just as I stopped at home, a few minutes ago.
I felt something rattle around inside, and when I looked, I saw a huge gem winking at me.
In awe, I flipped the envelope around, and on the back was scrawled, “I had no doubt that you would find the candy.”
