Determined to protect my mom, I pretended to accept their relationship but kept a close eye on Aaron, searching for proof he was a fraud.Just days before the wedding, panic set in—I still had nothing. Then, when I went back to Mom’s house to grab her phone,
I found a locked drawer. Inside were debt notices and property papers—all under Aaron’s name, some even signed with forged signatures. My heart pounded. I ran to the wedding and exposed everything, accusing Aaron of using her.
But Mom’s reaction stunned me. She said the debts were a surprise for me—they were buying me a restaurant, my dream business. Aaron had even offered to work as my pastry chef. I was speechless and filled with guilt.
I apologized, but Mom was hurt and told me not to come to the wedding. Aaron urged her to forgive me, reminding her that pushing me away would only cause regret. Sitting in the back, I realized I had almost destroyed our family because I couldn’t see past my fears.Now, I’m trying to rebuild trust and accept their love, hoping we can heal together.
