Shane Weber has led a hard broken life, is a poor orphan, and is deemed the despicable son-in-law everyone scorned for years. But his fortune is about to change dramatically. Shane inherited immense wealth from his grandfather, shocking everyone. He was the heir to one of the three Trillionaire families in the world. He endures constant criticism and judgment from those around him. He vowed that those who had labeled him a failure would eventually bow at his feet. Now, how will he use his new-found wealth to shape those around him, as he reclaims his life? With a new-found sense of responsibility, Shane will get revenge on those who treated him badly. Will he succeed?
Shane Weber
He is the former soninlaw of the Trillionaire Families and an orphan. He is resilient, misunderstood, and determined. Shane grew up in an orphanage, facing poverty and harsh treatment. He was forced to live in a basement and was scorned by his relatives after his parents' death. Despite being labeled a failure, he survived. His life changed when he inherited $17 trillion from his wealthy grandfather. Now wealthy, he seeks revenge on those who wronged him and strives to regain his dignity.
Julia Trillionaire
She is the daughter of one of the Trillionaire Families. She is arrogant, cruel, and indifferent. She once married Shane under pressure to secure her future within the family. After calling him a failure and abandoning him, she learns about Shane's inheritance. Now fearful of his return, she tries to maintain distance. Her past treatment of Shane haunts him, and she remains unaware of his newfound wealth and power, which greatly shifts their dynamic.
Lena Weber
She is Shane's late mother and the wife of his adoptive father. She is compassionate, selfless, and nurturing. Lena cared for Shane at the orphanage where she met her husbandtobe. Despite her kindness towards him, she died from malnutrition caused by poverty. Her death had a profound impact on Shane, driving his determination to succeed against all odds. Though she is no longer alive, her memory continues to motivate Shane's journey towards redemption.
I am Shane Weber, the most hated son-in-law of the Trillionaire family.
I am an orphan, a poor boy who was raised in a basement and later became a beggar on the streets.
I was married to Julia Trillionaire for three years, but I was treated like a servant and scorned every day.
They called me a failure and said I was useless and good for nothing.
But they didn't know that I had a grandfather who ranked among the top three richest people in the world—my grandfather was a Trillionaire.
And now, I've inherited $170 trillion from my grandfather!
The whole world is shocked by this news!
"What? Did you hear that? Shane Weber, the poorest son-in-law, has inherited 170 trillion dollars!"
"Shane Weber? Isn't he that beggar who used to live in the Trillionaire family's basement?"
"Yeah, I remember him! He was married to Julia Trillionaire for three years. I heard he was treated really badly by them."
"Now it turns out that he's the grandson of one of the Trillionaire families! Who would have guessed that?"
Everyone was talking about me!
All my relatives who had treated me so badly before came running to me with smiles on their faces.
Even Julia, who had called off our marriage and abandoned me, sent me a message asking if we could meet up!
I sit in my newly acquired penthouse office, staring at her message on my phone.
The screen dims as I set it face-down on the mahogany desk.
Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, I watch construction crews breaking ground on my first development project—a luxury apartment complex that will soon overshadow the Trillionaire family's headquarters.
My assistant enters with a stack of acquisition paperwork for three tech startups that Julia's family tried to buy last month.
I sign each document deliberately, remembering how they made me sleep on concrete floors and eat scraps from their table.
These contracts will be delivered to Julia's office tomorrow morning, showing her exactly what she lost by underestimating me.
"Shane, are you really going to go through with this?" my assistant asks, concern etched in her voice.
"Yes, Emily," I reply, my tone firm but calm, "it's time they understand the consequences of their actions."
"But what if Julia genuinely wants to make amends?" she presses, searching my eyes for any hint of doubt.
I lean back in my leather chair, methodically opening the thick manila envelope that arrived this morning from my grandfather's lawyers.
My hands tremble slightly as I pull out document after document, detailing my inheritance.
Property deeds for islands in the Caribbean and Mediterranean spill across my desk.
Photos of gleaming mega yachts and sprawling estates follow.
The numbers blur together—170 trillion dollars in total assets.
At the bottom of the stack, a black and gold Citibank card catches the light, its platinum W seeming to pulse with power.
I pick it up carefully, remembering how Julia once cut up my basic debit card in front of her friends.
Sliding the card into my wallet, I press the intercom button.
"Emily, please assemble my financial team. It's time to make some investments."
While I wait for my financial team to arrive, I review the dossiers Emily prepared on each member.
They're seasoned executives poached from the top investment firms in the city.
Through the glass walls of my office, I watch her coordinate with the receptionist, arranging for coffee and pastries to be brought in.
She moves with practiced efficiency, her heels clicking on the marble floor.
I remember when she first interviewed to be my assistant.
She was fresh out of college, with a degree in finance and a sharp mind.
I wore my only suit that day—a threadbare hand-me-down from one of Julia's cousins.
But Emily saw past it, recognizing something in me that no one else did.
She didn't mock me like Julia did or pity me like the rest of them.
Instead, she offered to help me build my business empire from scratch.
And now, here we are—on top of the world.
The intercom buzzes again, pulling me from my thoughts.
"Shane, your financial team is here," Emily says, her voice crisp over the intercom.
I straighten my Italian suit jacket and stand to greet them. The conference room is filled with the hum of anticipation as I enter.
My team files in behind me, each carrying laptops and stacks of presentations.
I'm reviewing investment proposals when the door to my office swings open and Thomas Chen walks in.
He's not announced, but he never needs to be.
Thomas is one of the few people who knows me better than I know myself.
He's wearing his signature wrinkled blazer—the same one he had in college when he tutored me in economics while I worked night shifts at the campus cafe.
Now, he runs a billion-dollar ethical investment firm.
He drops a thick folder on my desk, filled with research on sustainable energy companies.
"These companies need funding," he says, pointing to highlighted sections.
"And they'll give better returns than those tech startups you're buying to spite Julia."
I lean back in my chair, studying the determination in his eyes.
"Thomas, you know this isn't just about returns," I reply, my voice steady but laced with underlying tension.
"Shane, revenge might feel good now, but it won't build the legacy you're capable of," he counters, his tone both challenging and supportive.
I pause, considering his words, "What if I can have both—revenge and a legacy?"
