a wealthy old businessman needed to figure out which of his sons deserved his inheritance when he died he staged an elaborate plan to find the answer but what Mr pantaleon discovered left him shocked the importance of hard work cannot be overstated that was a rule that Mr pantalion liked to live by he was a tough and hard-working man who had struggled his entire life to make money.

Growing up he lived high up in the mountains along with his siblings mother and father it was far from anyone so being able to create work and a living for yourself was essential but he had perfect character for it and never shied away from hard and sternius work in order to make his money and provide for his family waking Before Sunrise as a young boy Mr pantalion would wake up and travel to the fields that ran up and down the Mountainside .

He would gather grain and other crops to sell at the market far below at the foot of the mountain he had done this for as long as he could remember at first he would work alongside his siblings but one by one they moved away until he was the only one that was left the soul gatherer of grain on the Mountainside life was tough though aside from the sometimes treacherous conditions the money they made wasn’t fantastic it was enough to scrape by but not enough to live too comfortably sometimes they would struggle to make ends meet if the grain yield was too low it was a very hard life indeed from time to time as he Grew Older.

Mr pantalion made a promise to himself that he would one day be able to escape that hard and tiring life he didn’t want to become an old man and still be working in the Mountainside Fields he would save a little bit of money each and every month putting some aside just in case he eventually invested in coffee plants and would start to sell coffee in the market as well as grain this new product was a hit for the locals and people from far and wide started to flock to the market to buy Mr pantaleon’s Coffee Beans .

He had multiple clients that would make extremely large purchases and this started to make Mr panto Leon a wealthy man one day a businessman came along having heard of these extraordinary coffee beans and made a deal to go into business with Mr pantoleon they would make and sell his products across the country he had become a successful man by the age of 31. his life got even better when he met a beautiful woman .

whom he got along with amazingly well they had many of the same interests and loved the Great Outdoors one day Mr panto Leon decided that he wanted to marry this amazing lady and finally got down on one knee to propose to her the only downside to everything was that even though Mr pantaleon was extremely successful and had gathered quite a large amount of money he had one big issue he couldn’t read he had never had the opportunity to learn as he had always been busy in the fields it had never caused him too much of an issue though it was something he wished he was able to do he was too busy to learn.

Now Mr pantalion and his beautiful wife eventually had two children David and Ian both of whom he loved very much as they grew older they were both more than happy to help their father with his business David was the most involved son though from moving sacks of coffee beans to helping sell them at the market he enjoyed the quality time with their father and besides it earned David a little pocket money too as he matured and got older David started earning a wage for helping the business grow becoming Mr panto Leon’s right hand man Ian on the other hand was far more distant he wasn’t a fan of hard work he didn’t like math and numbers and he detested the oversight of his father and brother as Ian Grew Older and matured he made it more and more clear that he was not interested in continuing to help in the family business.

Mr pan to Leon still loved Ian but he would be lying if he said it did not disappoint him that his son had not taken more interest in the business he looked down on his son he knew it was wrong but he thought less of Ian for not being more actively involved in his life Mr pantalion was becoming an old man though and he decided that he needed to make himself a well he asked the lawyer to draw up the official legal document and help him make arrangements for when he eventually passed away.

He knew it was coming one day and while he was fit and strong now he would eventually be old and frail the will finally came back but there was a problem Mr pantalion was unable to read it Ian the son that was less involved with the business took a great interest in helping his father get the document right though Mr pantoleon appreciated the time with his other son but the Aging man often got confused and Bamboozled by all the legal and Technical terms still Ian helped him out and read the documents to him however David told his father that Ian was trying to take all of his money and Company all for himself .

Mr panto Leon didn’t know what to believe he trusted David and had formed a fantastic working relationship with his son though he did still love Ian 2 and wanted to believe that neither of his sons would try to con him out of his money and his business but sadly he felt like someone was deceiving him and just in it for the money it was a tricky and confusing situation but one that had a shocking solution Mr pantalion conspired with a trusted employee to fake his own death.

this way he could find out which son truly loved and respected him and which one just wanted his fortune after he passed away the plan was that Mr pantalion would fake a heart attack at work the plan worked like a charm and Mr pan to Leon put on a convincing performance he snuck away to stay with the employee until the day of his funeral.

Only three days after he had supposedly died when the day of the funeral came Mr pantaleon’s family were gathered together around the coffin everyone except David he was busy pushing through a big deal one that Mr pantalion had never been sure of the family assumed that this was all part of the man’s Last Wishes Ian was crying tears of grief and sorrow over his father’s coffin and he confessed to the coffin that he wished he had spent more time with his father.

when he was alive all of a sudden the coffin burst open and outsprung Mr pan to Leon he was alive and well he was shocked that only Ian was there and angry and saddened to see that David couldn’t even spare the time to attend his own father’s funeral he was busy trying to grow the business and make himself more money David believed his father was going to leave him in control of the business and that he was the rightful heir to Mr pan to Leon’s Fortune it’s true that was the original plan.

But that was all about the change now Mr pantalion hugged in tightly and apologized for not spending as much time with him he vowed to spend more time in the company of his son and get to know him better Mr pantalian had been guilty of sidelining Ian in favor of David and growing his business but he now saw how wrong he was as for Mr panto Leon’s will well he changed it instead of David receiving all of his money and being in control of his business it was now split 50 50. David was of course fuming that his plans had been toward it but Mr pantalion didn’t care he still of course loved and respected David but Ian was his son too and he would treat them properly from now on.

No more looking down on him and no more sidelining him Mr pantalion had learned a valuable lesson about whom to trust because even family is capable of backstabbing and betraying you if they think they will inherit such a large amount of wealth and power so now it’s over to you what do you think of this shocking story how would you react if you were in the same position as Mr pantaleon as always we love to hear from you so be sure to let us know your thoughts and opinions in the comment section down below
