After a wealthy man’s death, his granddaughter shared on Reddit the shocking terms of his will, causing a family feud.

“My grandfather didn’t know for the longest time until he caught my grandmother in another affair,” the granddaughter wrote, revealing the family secret. The man, upon discovering the truth, filed for divorce and wrote a will requiring DNA tests for his children to claim their share.

Despite attempts to find loopholes, the family disputed the will. The granddaughter, accused of not being her father’s biological child, took a DNA test, proving her lineage. While entitled to a substantial inheritance, she felt guilty about the family turmoil and sought advice on Reddit.

The rich man’s unusual conditions, coupled with long-buried family secrets, created a turbulent posthumous chapter, leaving the family in discord over inheritance and biological ties.
