When a 63-year-old father rewrote his will to leave everything to his 26-year-old wife, his daughter was stunned—and furious. Told she could “feed herself,” she watched the young wife smirk. But instead of backing down, the daughter made a move they never saw coming.
This is the full story:
My dad’s new wife, Liv, is younger than me. He’s 63, Liv is 26, and I’m 32. Last month, he told me he’d changed his will so that everything would go to her: the house, the savings, all of it.
When I confronted him, he just shrugged and said, “Your mother left you the heirlooms, and you have a decent job. That’s more than enough. You’ll be fine, but Liv is young—she needs security and someone to take care of her.”
I was fuming. And Liv? She just smirked.
But I wasn’t about to let that slide. I checked the property records and found that the house he promised her was still in both his and my late mom’s names. The transfer had never been completed—which meant half of it was legally mine.
So, I went to a lawyer and filed my claim. At the next family dinner, I let them both know. They went pale. Liv froze when she realized the mansion she flaunted online wasn’t fully hers to inherit. She may have thought she’d taken it all, but I made sure she got far less than she expected.
Now my dad’s attitude toward me has changed completely. He believes I’ve deprived Liv of her security. There’s a lot of tension between them too—he blames me for being selfish and jealous.
But honestly, I only wanted justice.
Am I wrong for claiming what legally belonged to me—and ruining my dad’s “happy” relationship?
