Olivia began to suspect her boyfriend Michael was cheating when he grew distant, acted secretive, and withdrew money from their joint savings. Hoping to find the truth, she followed him with her friend Kate — only to see him happily shopping with another woman. Believing the worst, Olivia confronted the woman at her house and, in a moment of rage, threw a smoothie in her face before storming off.
Later, Michael surprised Olivia by finally inviting her to meet his family at a dinner. She prepared nervously, unsure of what to expect. But when Michael opened the door that night, Olivia froze — the “other woman” was there, standing beside him. Shock turned to horror when Michael introduced her as his mother, Cynthia. Olivia realized she had just attacked his mom.
The dinner quickly unraveled. Cynthia smugly revealed Olivia’s outburst to Michael, expecting him to end the relationship. Olivia confessed everything, embarrassed and emotional. To everyone’s surprise, Michael defended her, called out his mother for intentionally provoking Olivia, and then dropped to one knee — proposing right there at the dinner.
Cynthia exploded with anger and stormed out, but Michael stood firm, choosing Olivia over his mother’s manipulations. Olivia tearfully accepted his proposal, relieved that the truth had come out — and stunned that their wild misunderstanding had led to a moment she’d never forget.
