My Granddaughter Kicked Me Out of the Apartment I Gifted Her — So I Gave Her a Reality Check
A Grandmother’s Love: Unraveling Secrets and Rebuilding Trust A Tragic Beginning It’s been a tough journey since my son and his wife died in that terrible car crash six years ago.
I looked up from my crossword puzzle and asked what had her so thrilled. “I’m engaged!” Emily showed off a flashy ring, her face glowing with happiness. My heart sank. Engaged? And to whom? When she told me it was Tom, a man she’d only been dating for two months, I felt a wave of concern wash over me. The Confrontation “Two months? That’s awfully fast, don’t you think?”
Emily’s smile faded, and she accused me of being unsupportive. She dismissed my concerns about her studies and announced she was dropping out of college. She believed marriage would be her safety net and that Tom would take care of everything. “For what? I’m gonna be married. Tom will take care of me.” My attempts to reason with her fell on deaf ears. She then dropped a bombshell: she wanted me to move out of our apartment, claiming it was hers now. “Emily, I said you’d inherit it after I pass away.” She shrugged it off, insisting she needed it immediately.
That night, I barely slept, my mind churning with worry and disbelief. The next day, Emily literally shoved me out the door, declaring that Tom was moving in that evening. Seeking Help In desperation, I called my sister, Beatrice, and explained the situation. Bea was livid and immediately offered me a place to stay. I also reached out to my old friend Fiona, who ran a private investigation firm, to look into Tom. “Fi, I need your expertise. Can you look into Emily’s fiancé?” Fiona agreed, and I provided her with all the information I had. Meanwhile, I put the lawsuit to reclaim my apartment on hold, hoping to resolve things without legal action.
