My Newly Adult Daughter Almost Married an Old Man, I Was Shocked until I Found out the Truth – Story of the Day
My 18-year-old daughter, Serena, fell in love with a 60-year-old man named Edison and planned to marry him despite my objections. I was shocked when I discovered a troubling truth about him.
One afternoon, Serena came home from work, excited to share about her life. She revealed her relationship with Edison, emphasizing how much he loved her. But when she mentioned his age, I was taken aback. “Sixty, Serena? Can’t you see the problem?” I expressed my concerns about their future together.
Serena insisted that love wasn’t defined by age and begged me to meet Edison. Reluctantly, I agreed, thinking a meeting wouldn’t hurt.
The following night at Edison’s place, I overheard a conversation on the balcony. Edison was talking to a woman named Annie, discussing a bet where he intended to marry Serena for money to clear his debts. My heart sank; he was using my daughter as part of a scheme.
I rushed inside to confront Serena, but she dismissed my concerns. She accused me of not being present in her life after her mother passed away and claimed I was just trying to sabotage her happiness.
Before I could explain further, Edison entered the room, and I lost my temper. I punched him and shouted, “Stay away from her, you creep!” I knew I had to protect my daughter from his deception.
