A bride-to-be was broken by the shame her mother-in-law and fiancé caused her, but her sweet old grandmother saved the day. The girl left town to take a break and heal after her grandmother told her to. But what she found out when she came back two years later shocked her.
In the “Nuclear Revenge” thread on May 18, 2019, an unknown woman told her story. The woman and her boyfriend had been together for nine years and were deeply in love. Their relationship had been strong for a long time. On their seventh anniversary, he asked her to marry him, which made her cry tears of joy.
They carefully planned their wedding after that, but they chose to wait two years so that they could save enough money for their dream wedding and their future together. Their families were very happy, but the woman’s mother-in-law, whom she called “CM,” seemed to be angry for some reason.
From the start, CM made her dislike clear by calling the original poster a gold digger and, even worse, a hooker, even though the woman had a successful job and her family was well-liked in the community.
Someone else in the store saw the fight and quickly told the manager and security about it.
What went wrong with the wedding?
In the months before the wedding, CM enjoyed making things difficult for everyone. She changed things about the wedding without asking the couple first, like the invites, the seating plans, and even the menu.
With each change, the woman had to rush to fix things, which often cost twice as much. The unwavering support of her fiancé’s grandparents and her own grandma helped her a lot during the rough times.
CM’s insults got worse, and he even called out the woman’s favorite wedding dress. The dress was hand-made by her mother’s best friend, who became like a second mother to her. It’s a beloved masterpiece that took a year and three months to finish. CM, on the other hand, was very brave.
CM stole the dress and destroyed it in a cruel way two months before the wedding, leaving the woman shocked and sad. The big day came, but the groom wasn’t there at all, which made the bride very sad. CM took this chance to make her feel even worse about herself.
The woman’s broken heart
During the breakup, the original poster found out that her fiancé had been seeing a common friend for a year. She called this friend “UH.” With CM’s backing, UH publicly abused her by showing off her relationship with the woman’s “spineless ex-fiancé” (SF) and spreading bad rumors about her. They also attacked her family and called their honesty and respect into question.
Even though the woman was very angry, she held back at first because her grandmother told her not to make things worse. She was so desperate that she broke down and thought about getting payback.
The Epic Payback of Grandma
It was the original poster’s wise grandmother who told her not to get back at the person who hurt her. Instead, her grandmother pushed for a planned exit. The woman left her hometown, cutting ties with everyone except her beloved grandmother because she trusted her grandmother’s advice.
When she came back after two years, she saw how terrible the effects of CM and UH’s acts were. Her grandmother’s once-bright smile had faded and been replaced by a sad face because she wasn’t there with her. But when the truth about CM, UH, and SF came out, her grandmother showed how sneaky she really was.
Because UH had an affair with her married boss, they got a messy divorce, her license was taken away because she was morally bad, and she was charged with theft from their workplace. CM’s marriage fell apart when her shy husband asked for a split to get away from her bad influence.
It looked like SF was going to get a big raise and become the head of the department. This chance was huge because it would have made him the youngest CEO in the history of the business. The plan fell through, though, because of the scandal and the fact that SF’s boss was married to the woman’s second mother.
“SF wasn’t fired from his job because [the boss] thought it would be such an easy way out and because my grandma told [the boss] that firing SF would be ‘wrong and unprofessional,'” the woman said. “Again, she was playing the sweet old lady card.”
Once More, Grandma
A small change was made to the original post to say that OP’s grandmother met UH at the grocery store and started talking to him in a way that seemed nice. Even though her grandmother was being polite, UH responded badly and raised her voice. Someone else in the store saw the fight and quickly told the manager and security about it.
When asked about what happened, UH told the story in a very angry way. Being quick on her feet, the grandmother eased the stress by saying she had forgotten to tell UH she had asked for help finding the right cooking oil. The boss took the grandmother’s side, and other people stepped in to help and support her, making UH look uncomfortable.
