HELLO? Need to read the will. You MUST BE mentioned. If not, you are presumed to have been forgotten. And can inherit.

If he left a will leaving everything to your step-mother, then she will get everything. There is no absolute right to inherit property as a child. If there is no will then you may be entitled to a portion of your father's estate.
