Sol Soldivino, widow, passed away, leaving two (2) legitimate children: a 25-

year old son, Santino (whom she had not spoken to for five [5] years prior to her
death since he attempted to kill her at that time), and a 20-year-old daughter,
Sara.
She left an estate worth PhP8 million and a will containing only one provision:
that
PhP1 million should be given to "the priest who officiated at my wedding to my
children's late father." Sara, together with two (2) of her friends, acted as an
attesting witness to the will.

On the assumption that the will is admitted for probate and that there are no
debts, divide the estate and indicate the heirs/legatees entitled to inherit, the
amount that each of them will inherit, and where (i.e., legitime/free
portion/intestate
share) their shares should be charged. (5%)
