We moved into an old house and discovered an ancient safe in the basement — what we found inside completely changed our lives

When Fiona, Derek, and their son, Ethan, inherit a house in a new state, they jump at the opportunity for a fresh start. But during their renovations, they discover an old safe in the basement. However, their lives change forever when Ethan discovers the key to the safe.

Growing up, we were never the wealthy type. My family was pretty average, dealing with the usual stuff that people seem to juggle: credit card bills, loans, and relying heavily on paychecks just to make ends meet.

So, when I got a random call one day saying we’d inherited a house in a different state, it felt like something out of a movie.

The house belonged to my grandpa’s brother, a man we were never particularly close with. But he had passed away, and to our surprise, he left us his house in his will.

“We’ve been waiting for a new start, Fiona,” my husband, Derek, said. “I think we should take it and just start a new chapter. Ethan is starting high school, so it’s the perfect time to switch schools anyway.”

“I agree,” I said, already thinking about looking for a new job that wouldn’t leave me so stressed out. I needed to get some of my joy back. Recently, all I had been doing was working to make ends meet.

Derek was doing the same thing.

We were tired.

This new house could be exactly what we needed. It wasn’t anything fancy. It was a charming old property that had seen better days but was spacious and tucked away in a quiet neighborhood.

The idea of starting fresh, with no rent or mortgage hanging over our heads, was too good to pass up. So, we packed up our lives, crossed state lines, and moved in.

“I’m excited, Mom,” Ethan said. “I think I needed a change of scenery from town as well. I didn’t really want to go to high school with the same people I’d known since I was five years old.”

When we first arrived, the house was as expected. It was old, creaky, and full of charm but needed a little TLC.

“We’ll make it a home, Fiona,” Derek said, already going on about new flooring.

A few weeks in, Derek was already planning to replace some floorboards, and I was determined to breathe new life into the dusty old kitchen.

Shocking Truth Behind Riley Strain’s Death Finally Unveiled!

Riley Strain’s cause of death has been confirmed by an autopsy report obtained by TMZ.

According to the report, the 22-year-old college student died from drowning and alcohol poisoning. His death was ruled an accident.

This news comes three months after Strain’s mother shared her son’s final text message.

Strain, a senior at the University of Missouri, went missing in early March during a trip to downtown Nashville with his fraternity brothers.

The night he disappeared, Strain was asked to leave Luke’s 32 Bridge Food + Drink. Although his friends didn’t see him again after he left the bar, surveillance cameras, including a police officer’s body camera, spotted him several times before he vanished.

One of Strain’s friends called the police the next day to report him missing. Authorities started searching for him, but it wasn’t until March 22, two weeks after Strain was last seen, that they received a report of a body in the Cumberland River.

Officials confirmed the body was Riley Strain. He was found eight miles from where he was last seen.

The Tennessee Chief Medical Examiner’s report showed that Riley Strain had Delta 9 (a component of marijuana) in his system and his blood alcohol level was .228.

The autopsy also noted that there were no significant signs of injury.

When I first heard about Riley Strain, I hoped so much that he would be found alive. It’s so tragic that his life ended this way. Every day, I continue to pray for his family.
