"This is ridiculous!" I crumpled the copy of this fucking document that I'm currently holding. "I'm sure there's something wrong in here!" I looked at my parents who are both shock as well. "Why would I have to do anything in order to get my inheritance from lolo? I am a Ravenna! His one and only granddaughter! The heiress of his companies and estates!"
"Yes Farrah. But then it's clearly stated in his last will and testament that in order for you to secure those inheritances, you must fulfill the condition-"
I laughed sarcastically. "-and live a poor life outside of our family riches?! You know me Atty. I won't succumb to shits like this."
"Language, little miss." I looked at the one and only Romeo Miguel Ravenna, my dad.
"Dad, mom, I'm sure you do think that this is nothing but a ridiculous document! Why would lolo want me to do something like this! He spoils me more than anyone in this family!"
Mom looked at me, "let's hear more about this," I was about to complain but she held out a hand, stopping me from speaking more. "Atty., is this legal? We don't question the validity of papa's will but that condition seems- out of his personality." I was about to open my mouth to agree with my mom but pinandilatan niya ako as if giving me a warning to stop bitching out.
It definitely is! My lolo, Emilio Ravenna, had been nothing but a very loving, caring and amazing grandfather to me. He spoils me so much and treats me as a true princess. Kaya hindi ako naniniwala sa sinasabi ni Atty. Flores!
"Yes, Mrs. Ravenna. That's why after fixing some papers, I decided to immediately inform you about this. I'm sure you have talked about this will with Mr. Emilio before his passing three months ago."
Dad nodded. "Yes, but this particular clause about Farrah, he didn't mention."
Naikuyom ko ang kamao. Is this really happening?!
Atty. Flores fixed his rimmed glasses and spoke in his no-nonsense voice, his face a bit wrinkly due to his age. "Well, it is still very much legal provided that it is notarized with three witnesses and other legal requirements, as a notarial will. This will take effect in court."
Mariin kong tinitigan ang dokumentong hawak ko. I am specifically looking at a particular clause which looks as absurd as everything that is currently happening.
(b) To my beloved granddaughter, Farrah Audrianna Chua Ravenna, I hereby devise the properties listed in Section II (nos. 21-65), including the highest position in Ravenna Realty Corporation, provided, that her father- my son, Romeo Miguel Ravenna, find it necessary and rightful to do so, provided further, that these transfer of titles and estates shall only take effect once she:
b.1. gets out of the comfort of the family riches and live a poor and simple life in the province of Bulacan for two years;
b.2. studies in Bulacan State University for two years as a Business Administration student during her first and second college year, starting at the age of 18;
b.3. maintains a low-profile identity in her two-year period of stay in the province of Bulacan
otherwise, all the mentioned gifts shall be transferred only after the death of her biological parents, Romeo Miguel Ravenna and Celestine Chua-Ravenna and until then, the company would be in care of my trusted right-man, Mr. Franco Aguilar, one of the board members of Ravenna Realty Corporation.
"I don't understand," frustration is hella evident in my voice, "why would lolo want me, his only princess to experience being a poor probinsyana?! This is insane!"
Atty. Looked at me seriously and spoke with a calm, professional voice. "It's because Mr. Emilio felt bad about spoiling you too much. Also, he wants you to work from the bottom bago maging pinuno ng kompanyang pinaghirapan niya in the future, hija."
