Once, there was a woman whose life changed dramatically when she married a wealthy man she thought was a godsend to her family.
She shared on Reddit how this man showered her parents with extravagant gifts, cleared her sister’s credit card debt, and even got her brother a great job in a reputable company.
Her in-laws admired him for his generosity, even though he’d been unfaithful.
The first time he cheated was right after she gave birth to their child, Kelly. Feeling vulnerable, she turned to her family for advice.
They tried to help, but she found it hard to decide and ended up staying, thinking it was her fault for not being the best wife during her pregnancy.
Years later, when Kelly was about 12, he cheated again. This time, she was determined to divorce him. But her family and in-laws were against it, fearing a scandal.
She filed for divorce, but the custody battle was tough, and her ex-husband’s legal team, along with her in-laws, had the upper hand.
She lost custody of Kelly, but got alimony and a fair settlement. She tried to stay in touch, but her in-laws and parents painted her as the bad guy to Kelly. They convinced her that her mother was wicked.
Her best friend, Tina, was her rock during these tough times. Without Tina, she might not have made it. Over the years, she tried to mend things with Kelly
. Though she agreed to support Kelly’s grad school, there were conditions. In exchange, Kelly had to give up her inheritance status in her mother’s will.
Life has a way of balancing things out. Kelly worked hard, got a degree in accounting, and landed a high-paying job.
Meanwhile, Kelly’s dad faced a string of bad luck, losing his job and getting entangled in a lawsuit. He burned through his resources, including the money for Kelly’s education.
With her newfound financial independence and a deeper understanding of life, Kelly had a change of heart. She wanted to reconnect with her mother.
The woman couldn’t help but wonder if it was prompted by Kelly’s recent financial difficulties, especially after her tuition was no longer guaranteed.
The woman agreed to cover Kelly’s grad school expenses, but with a condition: Kelly would give up her inheritance status. In the woman’s will, her main beneficiary was her goddaughter, Laura, who had been like a daughter to her.
Not surprisingly, this decision sparked a family controversy. Relatives are split on whether the woman was right to choose Laura as her heir over her own daughter, who seemed interested in reconnecting only after facing financial trouble. “THANKS FOR THE SUPPORT – EVERY AD CLICK COUNTS!”
