my father has been expanding and generating profits within the company founded by my grandfather recently he promised to transfer a luxurious Villa a mansion to me however I've come to the realization that what's rightfully yours should also be mine as your husband this Mansion is now mine and I plan to hire you as a housemaid if you're not on board with that well you can always considered divorce as it turns out despite the Mansion supposedly being in my name my husband had clandestinely inscribed his own name on the legal papers does he genuinely believe that's
acceptable this he comprehend the potential consequences of such actions my name is Aaron and while I don't intend to boast I was born into a wealthy family my father the CEO of several companies inherited the business from my grandfather who initially started a small shop repairing and selling TVs and music systems over time the company flourished expanding into various branches and diversifying into the IT sector my father's foresight selling computers and accessories before they gained widespread popularity proved to be a lucrative move besides I he ventured into real estate collaborating with local businesses and actively
contributing to Community Development my mother served as the vice president of the company and after studying it in college I joined the family business despite the outward appearance of affluence we didn't live as extravagantly as portrayed in TV dramas my father believed in instilling good values rejecting the notion that spoiling a child AIDS in their responsible growth our family home was spacious and we had a maid but as a child I actively participated in household chores dining at fancy restaurants occurred infrequently and our international travels were limited to once a year with the majority being
being local trips my school life seemed quite ordinary and it would have been challenging for anyone to Guess that my family was affluent due to my unassuming demeanor I dated guys within my age group just like any other girl among them Michael who later became my husband was one of my colleagues at the same workplace during those times I worked as a sales representative and office manager at an eight related shop and Michael was also a sales rep there I chose not to disclose that my father was the CEO to my co-workers making it easier
for Michael to approach me I noticed that he was straightforward and had No Reservations although I didn't seek extravagance I'd always suggested places within Michael's budget during our dates at restaurants he would order generously explaining that if there's extra he'd eat it opting for a coste effective approach to enjoy a hearty meal some might have considered him a bit Frugal but but I found it endearing unbeknown to him I earned several times more than he did content with my fair compensation for the responsibilities I held I unconsciously became accommodating Michael always keen on budget-friendly ways
to satisfy his appetite received my gestures with gratitude during our dates I'd often bought extra food or thoughtful gifts knowing he would appreciate them when shopping for clothes I would add extra socks for him and and on occasions when I got a new bed spread I'd include pajamas and a pillow for him I genuinely enjoyed making him happy even when visiting his home I willingly cooked for him and took care of the cleanup out of the blue Michael proposed to me one day expressing that there was no one better than me at that moment I
hesitated harboring reservations after all my father was the CEO of a major company and he held a prominent position at my my current workplace I fear that if Michael were to discover this he might reconsider our relationship deciding to take Michael to my parents home for the first time I aimed to introduce him to my family and disclose everything about our background if he accepted it all I would be more than willing to marry him as Michael's inaugural visit to my family home approached he appeared visibly nervous however my dad though strict on occasion generally
exuded a cal demeanor when I presented Michael as the man who was contemplating marrying my father welcomed him with a warm smile alleviating some of Michael's tension although surprised to learn about my father's CEO status Michael managed to navigate the visit smoothly with my father's supportive demeanor upon leaving the house Michael exclaimed about the enormity and magnificence of the residence expressing gratitude for my father's kindness he even suggested that we could get along well when I casually mentioned my dad's ownership of additional buildings and a vacation home Michael appeared more astonished despite the Revelation he
resolved to marry me the daughter of such a prominent man and I greed wholeheartedly eventually we became a married couple however something bothered me at the moment of accepting his proposal I noticed a slightly mischievous grin on Michael's face for a split second dismissing it as his quirky way of smiling I didn't dwell on it but perhaps had I paid more attention I could have averted the impending tragedy as Michael and I moved into a typical not overly luxurious apartment he seemed to grasp the significance of my father's status yet I never explicitly disclosed my
income maintaining a modest lifestyle gradually Michael's demeanor changed after sing in while I balanced work and household responsib abilities he started demanding more one evening as I prepared dinner he asked what's for dinner tonight in response I informed him that I had prepared his favorite curry rice however to my surprise he appeared dis satisfied as he sat on the sofa letting AB aai he expressed his desire for something like a prime beef steak once in a while this caught me off guard as he had never complained about my cooking before I pointed out that Prime
was quite expensive but he clicked his tongue in annoyance insisting that considering my father's earnings indulging in Prime Beef occasionally should not be a big deal reluctantly I agreed to get prime beef for the next day Michael smirked stating that we should be able to enjoy such things normally from now on while my salary could afford such luxuries my previous lifestyle had instilled a reluctance to spend so extravagantly however to to avoid issues early in our marriage I resigned myself to the decision to actually cook cry beef steak unfortunately Michael's lavish Tendencies did not stop
there he frequently requested expensive ingredients for meals and specified upscale restaurants when we went out his Cravings extended Beyond food manifesting in desires for a TV larger than 60 in and even suggesting we should purchase a massage chair for the sake of relaxation after work these remarks became more frequent and I began to feel that it was getting out of hand I questioned the need for such extravagant items expressing my concern about the expenses involved frustrated I finally retorted asking him if he thought we were made of money I challenged his extravagant lifestyle stating that
living so lavishly was unnecessary in response Michael made a displeased face and clicked his tongue again expressing his discontent he argued that as the husband he contributed to the household expenses and insisted that I should listen to him however his statements puzzled me as his contributions while appreciated did not amount to a lavish sum in fact I contributed more a fact I never disclosed to him despite my substantial Financial input he made these assertions without hesitation this change in Michael's Behavior left me questioning his mindset he was not like this before and I couldn't comprehend
why he had changed at that moment I found myself in a state of confusion unable to comprehend Michael's recent behavior in response to his audacious requests I decided to temporarily appease the situation by telling him all right I'll think about it little did I know that the explanation for his buold behavior would become apparent just a few days later on that particular day my father SU summoned me to the office of our it shop where I worked claiming that he had something important to discuss while Michael was engrossed in his work my father entered the
office and initiated a serious conversation he expressed uncertainty about how much longer he could continue as the CEO and hinted at the possibility of me taking over in the future furthermore he mentioned transferring the vacation home to me this vacation home briefly mentioned to Michael earlier resembled a large Lodge located about a 30 minute driveway it was a place where my father used to host Gatherings with Town shop owners under the guise of meetings although such meetings were no longer held the house was consistently ready to be lived in maintained by a housekeeper my father
offered me the freedom to use the vacation home however I wanted this proposition left me torn as I had no concrete idea of how to utilize such a property the vacation home boasted over 6,000 square ft with a lavish Garden surrounded by Nature akin to a mansion lacking the social connections to host significant parties I contemplated keeping it as an asset I conveyed to my father that I would positively consider his proposal but needed more time to make a decision he assured me there was no rush and left a contract on the desk before departing
the shop returning home after work I lean towards accepting the Mansion intending to give it further thought the next day however the following day brought an unexpected turn of events upon arriving at work I discovered that Michael who typically arrived before me was absent from the shop in treat I entered the office only to find him there instinctively I asked what are you doing here to my surprise he flashed a document in my face stating I overheard the conversation about the Mansion yesterday sounds like an amazing deal right dumbfounded by Michael's audacious move I reluctantly
signed the document he flaunted a contract my father had handed me just the day before shockingly Michael had inscribed his own name on it I was utterly taken aback and couldn't help but express my disbelief what on Earth are you doing I questioned him but Michael without a hint of remorse casually responded why not your dad said he's giving away an amazing Mansion right if you off his side I figured I'd take it he said this with a smirk but there was no way I could accept it persistently I pleaded with him emphasizing the house
is worth of $4 million and my father's intention to give it to me however Michael dismissed my concerns with a nonchalant laugh 4 million bucks Dan that's impressive think about it I have the right to this Mansion because cuz you're my wife and I'm your husband so I have a right to what's yours moreover your dad really likes me he probably won't have any complaints so from today this Villa is my house if you live in a wealthy house you've got to make use of it how about I hire you as a maid in this
Mansion if you have any complaints I'll divorce you anytime he confidently declared it was at that moment when I recalled Michael's past actions and words and everything finally clicked he seemingly had no qualms about taking from others even if it meant practically stealing without feeling guilty during our dating days I'd always showered him with gifts but he never reciprocated my giving nature might have corrupted him leading him to believe that what was mine was automatically his my dad's kindness to Michael likely made him feel my father was easy to manipulate and perhaps he perceived me
as even more gullible with a plan for forming in my mind I decided to confront him I declared fine then this Mansion is yours but I'm not going to be your maid letun get a divorce take care after that I returned to my job and during my lunch break called the divorce lawyer to initiate the process Michael seemingly unfazed responded with bravado claiming he was fine with it and canceling the lease on his current Place little did he know that tragedy was about to hit him and he just hadn't realized it yet later I went
back to my parents place and shared everything with my father from that point on everything unfolded according to my plan a few weeks later Michael called me in a state of panic having received an enormous Bill while his shock was understandable it was only fair considering the fixed property tax on the $4 million house he had claimed as his own I casually informed Michael that he should expect to pay around that much for the property tax however he appeared utterly clueless lacking knowledge that paying tax on owned property is common normally my father would have
covered the tax if he had received the property but upon hearing the entire story my usually calm father was Furious despite my warnings about my father's strict nature he declared he can have it if he can afford it and accepted the property transfer to Michael to be honest a part of me wanted Michael to learn a tough lesson and there was no way he could afford the Hefty amount frustrated with Michael's persistent pleas I decided to deliver a final blow the annual property tax I revealed amounted to about $660,000 it dawned on me that Michael
always had a mindset of trying to take advantage of his friends possibly driving them away and leaving him without anyone to teach him Common Sense acknowledging that I may have been a bit unreasonable I admitted that my once cute perception of Michael had drastically changed without any sympathy left I hunt up the phone subsequently Michael couldn't sustain living in the house and faced forced eviction realizing he couldn't afford it my father reverted the property deed back to my name incurring the gift tax himself meanwhile Michael faced severe consequences he was fired from his job and
charged with unlawfully changing the property deed he received scoldings from his parents and was shunned by acquaintances now jobless and friendless he barely scraped by in a rundown apartment working on jobs his parents were even considering daming him as for me I've been gradually preparing to take over my father's company my father once told me that success in business doesn't come from looking for shortcuts reflecting on the fact that I almost married Michael I deeply understand the truth in his words inspired by my father's greatness I push forward every day in my involvement in running
the business
