In a jaw-dropping episode this week, Drew Cain was left speechless and overcome with emotion after the contents of Monica Quartermaine’s will were read aloud in a dramatic scene that no one could have predicted. What was supposed to be a routine reading quickly turned into one of the most shocking moments in the show’s recent history.
The scene took place in the Quartermaine mansion, with family and close friends gathered to hear Monica’s final wishes. Drew, who had been navigating the fallout from his father’s passing and the ongoing battle for control of ELQ, was ready to hear his mother’s typical bequests—inheritances to her children, charitable donations, and perhaps a few heartfelt personal messages.But what the lawyer read took everyone by surprise.Monica’s will, as it turns out, had a huge twist—one that left Drew reeling and ultimately caused him to faint in the middle of the reading.
As the lawyer began reading the document, it was revealed that Monica had left a significant portion of the Quartermaine estate not to her biological children, but toDrew Cain—and not just in terms of assets. Drew was named the primary beneficiary, and, in a shocking turn of events,Monica’s fortune would be handed over entirely to him, with a stipulation:Drew would have to take control of ELQ.
It turns out that Monica had been secretly working behind the scenes to make sure Drew was the one who would carry on the Quartermaine legacy—despite all the drama and tensions between him and the rest of the family. The inheritance comes with a caveat: if Drew agrees to take control of ELQ, he must also assume the leadership of the entire family—acting as the new head of the Quartermaine clan.But what really left Drew stunned wasn’t just the will’s contents—it was thepersonal messagethat Monica had left for him. Monica admitted that she’d always seen Drew as the one who truly understood the family’s business and had the skills to bring the company into a new era. She told him that she always believed he would be the one to heal the fractured family—and perhaps even mend his relationship with Jason Morgan, his brother by bond but not by blood
