Mother-in-Law & Fiancé Humiliate Bride – Her Grandma Plays ‘Sweet Old Lady’ & Secretly Gets Payback

A bride-to-be, shattered by the humiliation inflicted by her mother-in-law and fiancé, found an unexpected savior in her sweet old grandmother. Persuaded by her grandma, the girl left town to take a breather and heal. But when she returned two years later, she was stunned by what she learned.

On May 18, 2019, an anonymous female poster shared her story in the “Nuclear Revenge” forum. The woman and her boyfriend shared a love that had endured for nine years. Their relationship had weathered the test of time, and on their seventh anniversary, he proposed, eliciting tears of joy from her.

Afterward, their wedding plans were meticulously laid out, but they decided to wait for two years, hoping to save enough for their dream celebration and their future together. While their families were overjoyed, the woman’s mother-in-law, whom she referred to as “CM,” seemed to hold an unexplainable grudge.

From the beginning, CM openly displayed her disdain, labeling the original poster as a gold digger and, even worse, a hooker, despite the woman’s successful career and the respect her family commanded in their community.

A fellow shopper observed the confrontation and promptly alerted the store manager and security.

How Was the Wedding Ruined?

In the months leading up to the wedding, CM took malicious pleasure in sowing chaos. She meddled with wedding details, altering invitations, seating arrangements, and even the menu without consulting the couple.

Each change forced the woman to scramble and rectify the situation, often at double the cost. Through the turmoil, the unwavering support of her fiancé’s grandparents and her own grandmother provided a much-needed anchor.

CM’s taunts escalated, targeting even the woman’s cherished wedding dress. A labor of love, the gown was handmade by her mother’s closest friend, who was like a second mother to her. It took a year and three months to complete, making it a treasured masterpiece. Yet, CM’s audacity knew no bounds.

Two months before the wedding, CM stole the dress and callously destroyed it, leaving the woman in a state of shock and despair. The wedding day arrived, but the groom was conspicuously absent, leaving the woman devastated. CM seized this opportunity to heap further humiliation upon her.

The Woman’s Heartbreak

Amidst the heartbreak, the original poster discovered her fiancé’s year-long affair with a mutual friend she referred to as “UH.” Emboldened by CM’s support, UH tormented her openly, flaunting her relationship with the woman’s now “spineless ex-fiancé” (SF) and spreading malicious rumors about her. Their attacks extended to her family, questioning their integrity and honor.

Despite the woman’s seething anger, she initially held back, heeding her grandmother’s advice to avoid escalating the situation further. Her desperation reached a breaking point, leading her to contemplate revenge.

Grandma’s Epic Payback

The original poster confided in her wise grandmother, who counseled her against retaliation. Instead, her grandma advocated for a strategic withdrawal. Trusting her grandmother’s judgment, the woman left her hometown, severing ties with everyone except her cherished grandma.

Upon her return after two years, she discovered the devastating consequences of CM’s and UH’s actions. Her absence had taken a toll on her grandmother, whose once radiant smile had faded, replaced by a melancholic expression. However, when the truth about CM, UH, and SF emerged, her grandmother revealed her cunning side.

UH’s affair with a married boss led to a messy divorce, the revocation of her license due to moral turpitude, and legal repercussions for embezzlement from their workplace. CM’s marriage crumbled as her husband, once timid, filed for a divorce, seeking an escape from her toxic influence.

SF was in line for a significant promotion, poised to take over as the department chief. This opportunity was monumental, considering it would have made him the youngest chief in the company’s history. However, the entire prospect unraveled due to the scandal and the close familial connection between SF’s boss (who happened to be the husband of the woman’s second mother).

Regarding what became of her ex-fiancé, the woman recalled, “SF was not fired from his job because [the] boss thought it would be such an easy way out, and because my grandma spoke to [the] boss that firing SF would be ‘wrong and unprofessional’ and again playing her sweet old lady card.”

Grandma Strikes Again

In a small update to the original post, OP said her grandmother encountered UH at the grocery store and initiated what seemed like a friendly conversation. Despite her grandma’s polite demeanor, UH reacted aggressively, raising her voice. A fellow shopper observed the confrontation and promptly alerted the store manager and security.

When questioned about the incident, UH angrily recounted the encounter. Thinking on her feet, the grandmother diffused the tension by pretending she had approached UH for help in finding the right cooking oil, using her forgetfulness as an excuse. The manager sided with the grandmother, and onlookers stepped in, offering assistance and support, leaving UH visibly uncomfortable.
