I'm Sheridan Wesley. I'm eleven years old. I've always lived with my dad. He's the only person I've got. He loves me and I love him too. But soon our lives changed. Mine especially.


It was a sunny day in Blueville, a rural small town not far away from Tennessee. The kind of place where everyone knew everyone. My dad was one of the most popular and well-liked people of Blueville. He owned vast land and a big ranch.

I always loved working with him. I loved the farm life. I knew how to ride horses, milk cows, make butter, plant seeds and harvest crops. I was well loved by all my dad's employees and well known too by the people of the town. I was the little boy who always gave a helping hand.

The Last Laugh

"Yes, buddy. And let me tell you, you'll do that all by yourself."


"Think. Think and think. The same way you signed away your property is gonna be the same way you'll get it back. I'm just gonna do one thing for you."


"I'll give you a home. I'll pay for your education. And trust me, you'll have the best. But under one condition."


"You'll have to make a second birth certificate. A fake one."


"Yes. You never know what the future holds. Do you want to revenge without risks?"


"Then you will have to change your identity, as Sheridan Wesley. You will only regain it after your father's fortune is yours again. Which you can only seize back at a certain age. Are you ready?"


"As you grow, you'll understand. For the moment, look for your new name. Tomorrow we go to Tennessee."
