My dad\u2019s new wife, Liv, is younger than me. He is 63, Liv is 26, and I\u2019m 32. Last month, he told me he had changed his will so that everything would go to her: the house, the savings, all of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When I confronted him, he shrugged and said, \u2018Your mother left you the heirlooms, and you have a decent job. That\u2019s more than enough. You\u2019ll be fine, but Liv is young, she needs security and needs to be taken care of.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I literally fumed, and Liv just smirked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But I wasn\u2019t about to let that slide. I checked the records and discovered the house he promised her was still in both his and my late mom\u2019s names. The transfer had never been completed, which meant half of it was legally mine.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSo I went to a lawyer and filed my claim. At the next dinner, I let them both know. They went pale. Liv froze when she realized the mansion she flaunted online wasn\u2019t fully hers to inherit. She may have thought she had taken it all, but I made sure she got far less than she expected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now my dad\u2019s attitude to me has changed completely, as he believes I\u2019ve deprived Liv of her security. There\u2019s quite a tension between him and Liv, too. He blames me of being selfish and jealous, but I only wanted justice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am I wrong for claiming what legally belonged to me and ruining my dad\u2019s happy relationship?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
