My grandfather put his entire fortune my name when I turned 21, but my stepmother declared your father, and I'll manage it for you. I refused, and just as dad tried to intervene, grandpa's lawyer revealed a secret that left everyone gasping because when I was a kid, I thought my life was normal, at least as normal as it could be. #aita #games #redditreadings #redditstories #storytime  When your mother dies young and your father remarries a woman who clearly never wanted you around, my stepmother, Sandra always had this way of smiling at me in front of my dad, but looking right through me when he wasn't around. It was small things at first, making sure I got the smallest portion at dinner. Forgetting to include me in family outings, acting like my questions were a waste of her time. By the time I was a teenager, it was obvious she had no love for me. She didn't outright hate me, at least not in a way she'd ever admit, but she wanted me invisible if I needed anything. She had a reason why I couldn't have it. Oh, that's too expensive. You don't need that. Your father works hard enough. Let's not be selfish. Meanwhile, her daughters got whatever they wanted, ballet lessons, new iPhones every year, designer handbags before they were even old enough to appreciate them. I didn't complain. There was no point. My dad wasn't going to stand up for me. He had this way of tuning out anything unpleasant. And I learned young that if I wanted something, I had to figure it out myself, but I wasn't completely alone. My grandfather, my dad's father was old school. He built a business from nothing and turned it into something impressive. He didn't flaunt his money, but he never struggled. And more importantly, he saw right through Sandra. He never liked her, never trusted her. The feeling was mutual. She acted like he was an inconvenience, just some grumpy old man who didn't know how the world worked anymore, but she knew better than to disrespect him outright. The thing about grandpa was that he didn't waste words. If he said something, he meant it. And when I turned 21, he called me to his house and told me, without warning. Everything I have is in your name now. I thought he was joking. What do you mean? I laughed a little because what else was I supposed to do? I put my business, my assets, everything under your name. It's done. I stared at him waiting for him to take it back. Tell me this was some kind of test, but he just sat there watching me carefully, like he was trying to figure out what I was thinking. I, grandpa, I don't, he held up a hand. Don't trust Sandra with a single scent. I wasn't an idiot. I already knew that, but the way he said it, the way his face looked serious, in a way that made my stomach turn, made me realize something. This wasn't just about money. She's going to try and take it. He said, don't let her. I nodded, but I didn't really get it. Not until later I made the mistake of telling my dad about the inheritance. I thought he'd be happy or at least proud. Instead, his face changed in a way that made my stomach sink. He nodded slowly and said. That's a big responsibility. The next morning, Sandra was suddenly the nicest she'd ever been to me. Oh, sweetheart, she could. You must feel so overwhelmed. That's a lot. For someone your age. Don't worry. Your father and I will help you manage everything. I felt like I was watching a nature documentary, A Predator, waiting to Pounce. No thanks. I said I got it. Her face didn't change, but something in her eyes did. A slight tension in her jaw. A too tight smile. Don't be silly. She said, you are too young to handle something this big. Dad nodded alone. We just wanna help son. I shook my head. I don't need help. That was when the guilt started. Your father worked so hard, Sandra side. Don't you think he deserves a say? I mean, if it weren't for him, you wouldn't even be in this family. I just stared at her. That's when the insult started. You're being reckless. You don't understand how money works. You are making a huge mistake. Then the threats. If you don't let us help, you're going to regret it....., #redditstories #mildrama #toxicfamily #aita #storytime #relationshipdrama #familyconflicts #crazymil #entitledparents #redditaita #truestory #StepmomStory #toxicrelatives #redditreadings #RedditConfessions
