24 year old Kendia Brown's life has always been great, even through the miniature of bad times she's stumbled upon, still and hardly ever she complains. Who would when life's mostly great?

"Kendia," Liam called out and internally I groaned the words "Oh my God", because it seemed everybody's ears had inclined and were more in tuned to what Liam was gonna say to me. This is of course in my opinion when in comparison to how I felt they reacted to the last times he's spoken in regards to dad's will for my other siblings. Probably because it was my turn so it should've been expected of me to know that I would be under their spotlight.
Either way, he went on to list what dad had set aside for me. As you know, money was a part of my portion. To be exact 2.5 million, which all of his children received, except for Wynston for some reason.
In addition to Liam calling off that, he made mention that I was now head in charge of dad's previous position in the hotel as CEO/President & Managing Director of Sunset Resort and added that dad left additional funds, an amount he did not disclose over the table, for any fixtures relevant to the Hotel and also left money to go towards my fourth restaurant location.
As everybody was clapping and expressing their wows around the table, I was stuck in a state of suspension and disbelief.
I didn't have any plans to open another location. None at all since I was pretty satisfied with my three locations. Everything is going so well with them, I'm basically floating on air from the money I make from them and now I receive money from Andrew's businesses. Not that I accepted his proposal to be together again, but since he persistently insisted, why shouldn't I take the offer of 30% in a successful company and the other 10% in his other investments. I'd be a fool to decline a life inclining offer. On top of that, the income I now receive from Sunset Resort is a whole 'nother story.
In other words, my account is loaded. Wendy's loaded fries have nothing on me.
My life has changed drastically in a space of less than 8 years. I went from teaching for hundreds of dollars per month and then losing that job, which at the time it felt like I was about to die; to now being CEO of a Hotel and also owning businesses and running my very own charity/foundation. Also, with the popularity of my success, I'm often being called to be interviewed by talk show hosts and radio stations to tell my story.
My life over the years has not been easy. No, not at all. There are so many problems I've faced and hardships I've run into in my lifetime. Some were my fault, others by default of simply living and being a human.
There were many times I wanted to die. There were in fact many days I thought I wouldn't have made it or have even gone crazy because of the mental battles I was facing and I felt so alone in this world. As if no one cares or no one sees me. There were many days suicide was all I thought about. But now that I'm here and I look back over my life, I'm so glad I hadn't given up. I'm so glad God kept me. If He hadn't, I wouldn't have been here to experience all this good that life had in store for me.
