The lawyer had warned him: "It's… unconventional." Liam arrived at the designated address: a small, unassuming apartment building. He clutched the inheritance papers, feeling a flicker of nervousness. His sister, Chloe, beside him, seemed utterly bored. "Honestly, Liam, I hope it's not a stamp collection."

The apartment door opened, revealing a complete stranger. "You must be Liam," the woman said, beaming. "Your grandfather left you the keys to a thriving online gaming empire." Liam blinked, his jaw dropping.

He followed the woman inside, the air buzzing with energy. Servers hummed in a back room, and a team of young people worked furiously on computers. Chloe's eyes widened. Liam stared at the bustling operation, the potential suddenly unfolding before him. He was completely captivated.
