When I was 17, my grandpa passed away, and I was devastated. He had been a huge influence on my life, especially when it came to my love of vintage cars.

Every weekend, I helped him care for his beloved Chevy Bel Air. My mom never seemed to understand the bond we shared, and when Grandpa passed, she told me he had left me the car. But then she decided to sell it, dividing the proceeds among the family instead of letting me keep it.

Determined to get the car back, I worked hard, earned my license, and pursued a career in engineering. At 27, I tracked down the buyer, Michael, who had kept the Chevy in great condition and was willing to sell it back to me for $80,000. As I drove the car home, I discovered a hidden envelope in the ashtray.

It was from Grandpa, revealing that my mom wasn’t his biological daughter, and that I was the only one he truly considered family. He left me the Chevy because he loved me like a son.

The note ended with a surprise—inside the envelope was a large gem, along with the message, “I had no doubt you would find the candy.” It was a bittersweet moment, but I felt deeply connected to my grandpa, knowing I had the car back where it truly belonged.
