Speaker 1 (00:00):
DNA test proves he is not the father. Now I'm
taking the inheritance part three, oh man, and it just
keeps getting juicier and juicier. I mean we are taking
like nuclear levels up for every single part in this aga.
I am being washed away with juice right now. And
this is the finale, okay. But before that, we have
a quick two minute break from the sponsors that keep
(00:20):
the show alive, just to catch everyone up to speed.
Last week left off in part two, Opie thought that
her son was getting millions of dollars in inheritance, but
the father in law tried to steal it for his
other son. Opie got a DNA test prove the father
in law was not the father of a son. In
other words, she might be able to get the inheritance
worth millions of dollars back to our son. We've got
(00:40):
this one last part left off in the series, and
we found out some more information about Opie's rocky history
with the in laws that she thought that she had
gotten past until they tried to steal the inheritance. Now,
Opie's hired and private investigator to uncover the truth about
her brother in law's parentage and get the inheritance back,
so let's dive into it. Let's dive in final update
(01:02):
one month later. Oh my god, are we ready? I'm ready,
I'm already in. I'm buckled. I emailed him telling him
to come by my in law's house at the regularly
scheduled weekly family dinner. I gave him a specific instructions
not to knock or ring the doorbell, since my daughter
gets notifications on her phone when someone rings, and she
(01:23):
didn't need to know about him unless brother in law
wanted her to. She's thought of everything. That's like when
Michael hands Pam a note in the office from Toby.
Whatever comments, you know what to do, finish the sentence,
but it's like hugging kiss me as much as you
can because I'm too shy to tell you that I
(01:46):
like you.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
I like and like.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
He gives it to Pam to give to Toby. Except
this note is Hi. I'm the person your wife cheated
on with you. You with this is not your son.
I am here to implode your family. Yeah, yeah, dude,
this guy does not know what he's walking anymo. He
really doesn't, So I told him the door would be unlocked.
It always is for family dinners right in. Oh my god,
(02:09):
and we would be waiting for him in the dining room.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
Now there's one, one, one good thing here, Okay. In
order to spare Rachel from being dragged into this any
more than she has, this is the sister. I called
her a few days earlier and told her that I
had bought tickets to a show happening on the same
night as the family dinner and had forgotten about him
but before I went on vacation and asked her if
she and her husband would like the tickets. She said
(02:33):
yes and thanks me. I went online, I purchased two tickets,
and then I texted him to her. So she at
least got one person out of so devious brother, so
like maliciously thought out, like so detailed.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
I feel like OPI might be the villain.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Dude, chat, what do we think?
Speaker 2 (02:54):
This is a lot.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
We'll put our final judgment at the end, But as
of right now, everyone in the comments is Opie the
a horn?
Speaker 2 (02:59):
Not Yeah?
Speaker 1 (03:00):
Please let us know. Tell us why we're gonna keep
going now. The only wrench of my plan that I
didn't anticipate was being in the hospital with my child
at the time. All hell broke loose. I was in
the hospital with them for about three days while my
husband was at the hotel with our other two kids,
when he got the call from my husband's dad, the
father in law. And if you're new here, there's multiple parts,
make sure to follow us on iHeartRadio Apple podcast. But
(03:22):
let's get back to the story. My mother in law's
affair partner shows up as scheduled with the DNA and
paternity tests in hand. No, and he thanks my mother
in law for agreeing to this meeting. No. He apologizes
to my father in law for what he did so
many years ago, so I guess he did know, and
(03:43):
that he hopes he can forgive him someday and hands
the papers straight to my father in law.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Oh, they do. The father in law that it's gonna
go ballistic.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
He literally walked into the lions den, wrapped his arms
and head in salami and stuck out his arm of
salami to the lion. That is god like, see if
the lion bites. He then goes to Richard, the brother
in law, and tells him he's so grateful and that
he wanted to meet him and asked if he had
any questions for him.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
Oh, he's coming with such pure intention.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
He's coming with pure intentions. Well, oh, so many innos
and victims there, well, some not so innocent, but you know,
Mother in law doesn't say a word. She's completely frozen,
and brother in law Richard has no idea why this
man is shaking his hand trying to hug him, as
my father in law is frantically now flipping through the
(04:38):
papers and boom, my father in law starts screaming and
cursing and comes at brother in law's biofather to hit him,
when mother in law comes in between them and starts
begging for forgiveness, that it was so long ago, she
hasn't seen him in twenty plus years, et cetera, et cetera.
My father in law screams at Biophar to get out
(05:01):
before he gets him, marks him, and bio father takes
off out the door. Oh my god, My father in
law flips his crap and calls mother in law a
lying oar and to get out of the house and
to expect divorce papers from his attorney. And she drops
to her knees begging for him not to do this
(05:22):
and to think of brother in law Richard.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
To your brother in law that Richard's about to be
cut bro.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
My father in law then turns to Richard and tells
him that he's relieved that a lying, stealing, piece of
crap rug addict was never his son and tells him
to get out and to take his ex wife with him.
He then storms out of the dining room and starts
packing all of my mother in law's things, throwing in
(05:50):
them in the hall by the front door.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
Hu man went nuclear.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Hope he wanted chaos, she got it. Richard eventually takes
his sockbing mother off the floor and leaves the house.
After they're gone, my father in law called my husband
and told him what had happened, followed by brother in law.
So I guess, I guess he wasn't even there at
the moment.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Brother in law says that mother in law is with
him at our house that he's renting. Remember again, he's
still in their house. They like gave him the house, right.
He then demands that my husband abandoned me and our
sick child and fly home so that he can talk
to his dad to try to fix things, and that
he doesn't want mother in law living with him. When
he moves to his new house.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
He's still thinking he's getting his new house.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
B bro.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
Literally he lives in a rock.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
He literally he's had everything handed to him. He still
has the audacity to be like, hey, you know fly
I know you're taking care of your your your kid
in the hospital. Fly back convinced dad to take the
house back, and also like, most importantly, mom is living
with me right now in the house you gave me.
I can't have that face in this house you gave me.
I need space. You can't like have our mom live
(07:03):
here with me in THEE. I have standard I have
and standards for the things that people give me. I
went to jail. I don't want any cell mates anymore.
I don't many roommates anymore. Get Mom out of here. Okay, Well,
my husband tells him, no, good, there, you have it.
Good that he will come home as scheduled and talk
to my father in law, and then hangs up the phone.
(07:23):
My husband then calls me and tells me what was happened.
And I asked him what does he want to do?
Where do we go from here?
Speaker 2 (07:32):
Okay? I mean, what do you even do?
Speaker 1 (07:34):
I feel like you have to you you have to
wait for what the father in law does, right, I
think so? Yeah, I think so we got to wait
and see what happens. He says, he's okay, and right now,
we're just focusing on our family taking care of the
sick kid, and we'll deal with this when we get home,
and to just turn off our phones until then. So
we got home, I had a million missed calls from everyone.
(07:55):
Brother in law got wasted and showed up at father
in law's house later that night, demanding that he take
her back, and that she is his wife, not his
and it's his job to take care of her, and
that there isn't room for her at his new house. Again,
he the fact that if he just like left that out,
maybe he could get what he wanted, but he keep
like him, saying that would make me, as the father
(08:15):
in law, want to disinherit him even Oh yeah, yeah,
like father in law is like, I feel followed. I
was about to clap back right now, dude, My father
in law, as predicted, tells him that there is no
new house now or ever, and that only his son
will inherit that house and to get out. Brother in
law then punched father in law and then he called
(08:36):
the cops, so he had him arrested. Oh, jail two
point zero. So for going back to jail, at least
he has housing. Yeah, at least his mom isn't there,
that's true. He froze all of the bank accounts, so
mother in law couldn't even bail him out. So they're
(08:56):
just stuck. They're they're they're locked in a box right now.
Are you one of this family's nuclear SCHEMEA Oh my god.
Sister in law finds out about this the next morning
when mother in law calls her freaking out because brother
in law never came home that night before, and my
father in law has now blocked my mother in law's
phone number so she can't even call him. So the
(09:17):
sister in law, Rachel, calls her dad and tells her
what happened the night before and that the brother in
law is in jail. Rachel then lets his slip that
she already knew. He asks if brother in law. He
asks if brother in law and mother in law knew
about this, and she tells him that they did, and
he told her that he was the only one that
didn't know, and he didn't tell her the truth before
and hangs up. So basically, you know, remember how they
(09:40):
all kept this family secret for you so long. He's
basically now finding out that, oh, not only is he
not my son, everyone else in the family knew. Everyone
kind of hid it from him, right, So he's now
he's just I wonder if the father in law did
actually know to some degree mmmm, but kind of like
pushed it aside, and then when it was like confront
did with irrefutable proof, it's like, ah, crap, yeah, yeah,
(10:04):
it's the thing you can if you don't see it,
it's not real.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
I think that's probably the case of what happened here.
So Rachel then calls mother in law and told her
that brother in law was in jail, and mother in
law tried to bail him out but couldn't because all
her cards were frozen. And then sister in law asked
her husband if he would bail him out, but he
refused since her father and him and his father are
business associates and they're not going to get involved with
(10:28):
all that. So basically the sister was like, hey, husband,
you know, the totally separate husband, can you help bail
him out? And he's like, I don't want to get
mixed in a all this like like you know, like
op has been mixed into all right, she's married in
and got it in the mess. Brother in law was
in jail for a few days. When we got home
and got up to speed on everything that happened, my
husband went and bailed brother in law out solely out
(10:49):
of the sake for his niece, because remember this guy's
like a ton of kids with different baby mamas, and
gave him a ride back to our rental home. He
then went to my father in law's house so they
could talk. My father in law asked if he knew that.
My husband told him yes, he did know. My father
in law then asked him why didn't tell him the truth,
and my husband told him that he wanted to, but
(11:11):
that his mom begged him not to and that she
was very sorry and that it would never happen again.
I mean, I don't know the time, I don't know
if this is the thing that could ever happen again,
you know, I mean it could. I'm bro she'd have
to get some surgery to have another kid, because that's bro,
She's this is granny at this point. You know, old
is a beautiful thing, you know, what's the oldest woman,
(11:33):
like sixty nine years old writer or whatever. She'd have
to beat the record, like it'd have to be crazy.
She said it would never happen again, and that he
wanted to protect both of them and his siblings from
the pain of divorce.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
Now.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
My father in law told him he understood, and that
his mother shouldn't have to put that burden on him,
and that he doesn't know what he would have done
if he was in the position, and that he forgives
and basically forgives them for holding the secret. He told
my father in law that he did bail brother in
law out of jail, and that my father in law
says he doesn't care, and that my husband can be
there for him as his brother, but he is done
(12:06):
having him as his son. He's not helping him. He
says that brother in law knew for years that someone
who wasn't his father had bailed him out and taken
care of him again and again and again, and brother
in law never even appreciated it, and that he was
done with it all. He asked my father in law.
A husband asked my father in law if he was
really divorcing his mom, and he said he was she
(12:27):
had told him about the affair when it happened, they
maybe could have worked past it, but she lied to
him for decades and that's what he couldn't forgive. And
he can't forgive that she passed off also another man's
child as his son. He's done with her and he
never wants to see either of them again. I mean, yeah,
when when when?
Speaker 2 (12:47):
When? I mean, that's fair.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
When something bakes for twenty years, it's hard to eat
it out the ovens charcoal. At this point, it's been
bacon for two decades.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
He then apologized to my husband about the house and
that he knew it was wrong and that all of
this reminded him about the importance of keeping your vows
and promises. So so father in law is now we're
kind of coming to a kum mayor. He's like, hey,
I'm sorry, I stole the son, the house from your son. Yeah,
you know, and did all this. He's finally seen the reason. Hey,
that's that's a win, I guess, I do think.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
I mean he's been he's had many very a whole moments,
but it does seem he is having some some growth,
some growth man in this moment, I'm like, we can
only hope that one good thing the situation, right, Hey, Sam,
I'm your og host here, we're going to get back
to the stories.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
But here's three minutes bads from our sponsor.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
So he would have his attorney correct the will to
its original state before he would continue filing the divorce proceedings.
So he's basically he's trying to get that locked in
before he does anything else legal. So my father in
law and mother in law signed a prenup with an
infidelity claus.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Oh yeah, get.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Dude, and she she knew that, and you imagine brow
bomb was that dick though? Bro nuclear clear the way
this family's going through. I mean, she really risked it all.
I mean everything risk also no wonder. I mean she
(14:27):
she knew not only from the infidelity clause she would
get nothing, but also that like if there's an infidelity clause,
that means that he is very anti cheating, right, Like
he's like or Ladys like Mickey's like, hey, if you
do this, it's gonna be it's gonna beel a in
a big way. Well, so back to this infidelity clause,
she will get nothing, and she didn't come into the
(14:47):
marriage with it, so she cannot interfere with the will
or the house anymore. That's she has no legal grounds
to stand on. He did, however, request that my husband
honor his request and not allow mother in law or
brother in law to access the property because splitting it
yeah yeah, or yeah, just letting them look there.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
So my husband agreed to this, but said that he
still needed to make sure that his mother was taken
care of. Regardless of what's happened, she is still his mother.
So my father in law then offered to build a
mother in law suite literally for the mother in law
at our rental home with brother in law, so she
could have somewhere to live and somewhere to keep an
eye on brother in law and his many children.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Hey, I feel like that to win.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
Well, that's that's that's fair. I think that's fair. It's
it's also it's like, hey, here's something you can take
care of what you need to and you're out of
the way. My husband asked if he would drop the
charges against brother in law for the sake of the kids.
My father in law said he would see what he
could do about it, so we'll see. My husband thanked
him for talking to him, and that he'd see him
(15:51):
again once our child was feeling better. So my husband
called mother in law, who was still a wreck, and
told her what they had talked about and about her
were moving in with brother in law and she's lost it.
My husband then reminded her of their prenup and that
he had kept her secret for as long as he
did and now that he actually needed to stand with
(16:12):
his dad, and she reluctantly agreed to that. He also
spoke to brother in law, who was also pissed off
that he wouldn't be getting the property and now would
have to share the house with his mom. Oh my god,
du he doesn't want to share it the house with
his mom. Yeah, that's what he's been saying this whole time.
I want to move into my new house. About the mom.
He's made his wants and needs crystal Clearly, he's a gentleman.
(16:36):
If he was in therapy, he'd be thriving right now.
And so my husband also reminded him that we bailed
him out of jail and we were letting him live
in our home at cost. The very least he could
do for us and his mother is to let her
live here too, so he reluctantly agreed. Oh thank god.
(16:57):
Finally my husband called the sister to see how she
was doing. She and my father in law had a
long talk and they're doing okay. He was disappointed that
neither her rachel or my husband told her the truth,
and that hurts because he still loves her and that
he will always be there for her, but that he
needs some time to work through some things, and he's
going to call her and my husband when he's really
(17:20):
ready to have another family dinner again. I feel like
it might be. I can't understand him not wanting to
have work of trauma, dude, but that we'd be going
out to eat from I understand. My husband and I
had a long talk about how he feels, and he
says he feels good about getting that weight off his
chest and having it out the open again. He's had
(17:42):
to hold this secret for years. Holding secrets are no fun,
absolutely no fun, and one this like nuclear is, is
so huge that like changes the fabric of your family. Absolutely.
He feels bad about his mom, but that she made
her choices and has to stand by them, and he
will make sure that she's taken care of brother in
law drops the ball, so yeah, he'll make sure his
(18:02):
mom is good either way. So it's, you know, no harm,
no foul. Essentially, everyone's getting what they deserve. We aren't
sure what that looks like yet, but we'll still cross
that bridge when we get to it. I asked him
how he felt about the will being reinstated, and he
said that he's relieved that we will not have to
worry about our son anymore. And then he's grateful that
everything worked out the way God intended it to. Man,
(18:26):
if that's God's plan, God's yeah, goodness. I don't know
about that being God's plan, but it's someone's planned. A
came to fruition. By the way, ladies and gentlemen, there's
a place where you can see more insane plans unfold
like this and Sam Kean, do we know where that is?
Speaker 2 (18:49):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (18:49):
If you search Okay story Time wherever you get your podcasts,
I'm talking Spotify, Apple podcast I hearn't radio app. Just
search Okay Storytime. There is two thousand plus episodes of
stories just like this.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Yeah, go check it out.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
But ladies and gentlemen, we have we have a finale
here right before we dive into it just just quick
closing thoughts.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
Man.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
I mean, I it does feel like we kind of
ended in a decent spot. I would say the end
of the spot was explosive. I don't like how devious
Opie was. Yeah, but it kind of ended. Oh kay,
I think it ended. Okay, could we say everyone sucks here? Yeah,
(19:34):
father in laws, I don't think. I don't think Opie's
husband sucks opis. Opie's husband is like, yeah, yeah, what
did you do?
Speaker 2 (19:40):
What did he do?
Speaker 1 (19:41):
I don't It was unclear how in kahoots about this
whole plane heat. He was very foggy. And also they're
not splitting with his like other sibling to the sister,
you know, like I feel like there's there's a holishness
all around. Yeah, yeah, I think there was at least Yeah,
basically for the majority of people except Robert the fourth
(20:04):
Robert just hold the downs, being a being a kid,
saying a word, and just being being himself. Exactly one
hundred ladies and gentlemen. Let's get to the finale of
the saga real quick. So as for brother in law's bile,
father the lover, Okay, he wondering.
Speaker 2 (20:23):
I was wondering.
Speaker 1 (20:25):
He emailed me after the dinner and asked what the
hell happened because he had no idea. Dude, like, father
in law started throwing hand and he's just like, all right,
I'm out. He emailed me after the dinner, asked what
the hell happened, and I told him my husband couldn't
handle seeing the man who slept with his wife in
person and lost it. He was free to reach out
(20:46):
to brother in law and arrange a meeting if he
wanted to, and to not contact me again. So at
least I guess another little decent ending here that they
could reunite and actually have a relationship now, which, hey,
that's that's something. That's something, and this never would happen
to of any of this one down shout out to OP.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
I guess right.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
I sent him brother in law's phone number and deleted
the email address. I have no idea if they're in
contact or have any current plans to meet. Thank you
everyone for following my story and for all of your advice.
I hope I never have to do this ever again.
Being a master manipulator just isn't for me. I mean,
you did pretty well, You're pretty good at it. You
(21:23):
did it like Lebron, so it's hard to say Lebron
doesn't love basketball yep and is quite frankly exhausting, but
for my son, it will always be worth it.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
Wow, what a saga, What a mastermind. But I'm kind
of I'm happy with where it ended right, absolutely crazy story.

DNA test proves he is not the father. Now I'm
taking the inheritance part three, oh man, and it just
keeps getting juicier and juicier. I mean we are taking
like nuclear levels up for every single part in this aga.
I am being washed away with juice right now. And
this is the finale, okay. But before that, we have
a quick two minute break from the sponsors that keep
(00:20):
the show alive, just to catch everyone up to speed.
Last week left off in part two, Opie thought that
her son was getting millions of dollars in inheritance, but
the father in law tried to steal it for his
other son. Opie got a DNA test prove the father
in law was not the father of a son. In
other words, she might be able to get the inheritance
worth millions of dollars back to our son. We've got
(00:40):
this one last part left off in the series, and
we found out some more information about Opie's rocky history
with the in laws that she thought that she had
gotten past until they tried to steal the inheritance. Now,
Opie's hired and private investigator to uncover the truth about
her brother in law's parentage and get the inheritance back,
so let's dive into it. Let's dive in final update
(01:02):
one month later. Oh my god, are we ready? I'm ready,
I'm already in. I'm buckled. I emailed him telling him
to come by my in law's house at the regularly
scheduled weekly family dinner. I gave him a specific instructions
not to knock or ring the doorbell, since my daughter
gets notifications on her phone when someone rings, and she
(01:23):
didn't need to know about him unless brother in law
wanted her to. She's thought of everything. That's like when
Michael hands Pam a note in the office from Toby.
Whatever comments, you know what to do, finish the sentence,
but it's like hugging kiss me as much as you
can because I'm too shy to tell you that I
(01:46):
like you.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
I like and like.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
He gives it to Pam to give to Toby. Except
this note is Hi. I'm the person your wife cheated
on with you. You with this is not your son.
I am here to implode your family. Yeah, yeah, dude,
this guy does not know what he's walking anymo. He
really doesn't, So I told him the door would be unlocked.
It always is for family dinners right in. Oh my god,
(02:09):
and we would be waiting for him in the dining room.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
Now there's one, one, one good thing here, Okay. In
order to spare Rachel from being dragged into this any
more than she has, this is the sister. I called
her a few days earlier and told her that I
had bought tickets to a show happening on the same
night as the family dinner and had forgotten about him
but before I went on vacation and asked her if
she and her husband would like the tickets. She said
(02:33):
yes and thanks me. I went online, I purchased two tickets,
and then I texted him to her. So she at
least got one person out of so devious brother, so
like maliciously thought out, like so detailed.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
I feel like OPI might be the villain.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Dude, chat, what do we think?
Speaker 2 (02:54):
This is a lot.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
We'll put our final judgment at the end, But as
of right now, everyone in the comments is Opie the
a horn?
Speaker 2 (02:59):
Not Yeah?
Speaker 1 (03:00):
Please let us know. Tell us why we're gonna keep
going now. The only wrench of my plan that I
didn't anticipate was being in the hospital with my child
at the time. All hell broke loose. I was in
the hospital with them for about three days while my
husband was at the hotel with our other two kids,
when he got the call from my husband's dad, the
father in law. And if you're new here, there's multiple parts,
make sure to follow us on iHeartRadio Apple podcast. But
(03:22):
let's get back to the story. My mother in law's
affair partner shows up as scheduled with the DNA and
paternity tests in hand. No, and he thanks my mother
in law for agreeing to this meeting. No. He apologizes
to my father in law for what he did so
many years ago, so I guess he did know, and
(03:43):
that he hopes he can forgive him someday and hands
the papers straight to my father in law.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Oh, they do. The father in law that it's gonna
go ballistic.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
He literally walked into the lions den, wrapped his arms
and head in salami and stuck out his arm of
salami to the lion. That is god like, see if
the lion bites. He then goes to Richard, the brother
in law, and tells him he's so grateful and that
he wanted to meet him and asked if he had
any questions for him.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
Oh, he's coming with such pure intention.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
He's coming with pure intentions. Well, oh, so many innos
and victims there, well, some not so innocent, but you know,
Mother in law doesn't say a word. She's completely frozen,
and brother in law Richard has no idea why this
man is shaking his hand trying to hug him, as
my father in law is frantically now flipping through the
(04:38):
papers and boom, my father in law starts screaming and
cursing and comes at brother in law's biofather to hit him,
when mother in law comes in between them and starts
begging for forgiveness, that it was so long ago, she
hasn't seen him in twenty plus years, et cetera, et cetera.
My father in law screams at Biophar to get out
(05:01):
before he gets him, marks him, and bio father takes
off out the door. Oh my god, My father in
law flips his crap and calls mother in law a
lying oar and to get out of the house and
to expect divorce papers from his attorney. And she drops
to her knees begging for him not to do this
(05:22):
and to think of brother in law Richard.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
To your brother in law that Richard's about to be
cut bro.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
My father in law then turns to Richard and tells
him that he's relieved that a lying, stealing, piece of
crap rug addict was never his son and tells him
to get out and to take his ex wife with him.
He then storms out of the dining room and starts
packing all of my mother in law's things, throwing in
(05:50):
them in the hall by the front door.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
Hu man went nuclear.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Hope he wanted chaos, she got it. Richard eventually takes
his sockbing mother off the floor and leaves the house.
After they're gone, my father in law called my husband
and told him what had happened, followed by brother in law.
So I guess, I guess he wasn't even there at
the moment.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Brother in law says that mother in law is with
him at our house that he's renting. Remember again, he's
still in their house. They like gave him the house, right.
He then demands that my husband abandoned me and our
sick child and fly home so that he can talk
to his dad to try to fix things, and that
he doesn't want mother in law living with him. When
he moves to his new house.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
He's still thinking he's getting his new house.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
B bro.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
Literally he lives in a rock.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
He literally he's had everything handed to him. He still
has the audacity to be like, hey, you know fly
I know you're taking care of your your your kid
in the hospital. Fly back convinced dad to take the
house back, and also like, most importantly, mom is living
with me right now in the house you gave me.
I can't have that face in this house you gave me.
I need space. You can't like have our mom live
(07:03):
here with me in THEE. I have standard I have
and standards for the things that people give me. I
went to jail. I don't want any cell mates anymore.
I don't many roommates anymore. Get Mom out of here. Okay, Well,
my husband tells him, no, good, there, you have it.
Good that he will come home as scheduled and talk
to my father in law, and then hangs up the phone.
(07:23):
My husband then calls me and tells me what was happened.
And I asked him what does he want to do?
Where do we go from here?
Speaker 2 (07:32):
Okay? I mean, what do you even do?
Speaker 1 (07:34):
I feel like you have to you you have to
wait for what the father in law does, right, I
think so? Yeah, I think so we got to wait
and see what happens. He says, he's okay, and right now,
we're just focusing on our family taking care of the
sick kid, and we'll deal with this when we get home,
and to just turn off our phones until then. So
we got home, I had a million missed calls from everyone.
(07:55):
Brother in law got wasted and showed up at father
in law's house later that night, demanding that he take
her back, and that she is his wife, not his
and it's his job to take care of her, and
that there isn't room for her at his new house. Again,
he the fact that if he just like left that out,
maybe he could get what he wanted, but he keep
like him, saying that would make me, as the father
(08:15):
in law, want to disinherit him even Oh yeah, yeah,
like father in law is like, I feel followed. I
was about to clap back right now, dude, My father
in law, as predicted, tells him that there is no
new house now or ever, and that only his son
will inherit that house and to get out. Brother in
law then punched father in law and then he called
(08:36):
the cops, so he had him arrested. Oh, jail two
point zero. So for going back to jail, at least
he has housing. Yeah, at least his mom isn't there,
that's true. He froze all of the bank accounts, so
mother in law couldn't even bail him out. So they're
(08:56):
just stuck. They're they're they're locked in a box right now.
Are you one of this family's nuclear SCHEMEA Oh my god.
Sister in law finds out about this the next morning
when mother in law calls her freaking out because brother
in law never came home that night before, and my
father in law has now blocked my mother in law's
phone number so she can't even call him. So the
(09:17):
sister in law, Rachel, calls her dad and tells her
what happened the night before and that the brother in
law is in jail. Rachel then lets his slip that
she already knew. He asks if brother in law. He
asks if brother in law and mother in law knew
about this, and she tells him that they did, and
he told her that he was the only one that
didn't know, and he didn't tell her the truth before
and hangs up. So basically, you know, remember how they
(09:40):
all kept this family secret for you so long. He's
basically now finding out that, oh, not only is he
not my son, everyone else in the family knew. Everyone
kind of hid it from him, right, So he's now
he's just I wonder if the father in law did
actually know to some degree mmmm, but kind of like
pushed it aside, and then when it was like confront
did with irrefutable proof, it's like, ah, crap, yeah, yeah,
(10:04):
it's the thing you can if you don't see it,
it's not real.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
I think that's probably the case of what happened here.
So Rachel then calls mother in law and told her
that brother in law was in jail, and mother in
law tried to bail him out but couldn't because all
her cards were frozen. And then sister in law asked
her husband if he would bail him out, but he
refused since her father and him and his father are
business associates and they're not going to get involved with
(10:28):
all that. So basically the sister was like, hey, husband,
you know, the totally separate husband, can you help bail
him out? And he's like, I don't want to get
mixed in a all this like like you know, like
op has been mixed into all right, she's married in
and got it in the mess. Brother in law was
in jail for a few days. When we got home
and got up to speed on everything that happened, my
husband went and bailed brother in law out solely out
(10:49):
of the sake for his niece, because remember this guy's
like a ton of kids with different baby mamas, and
gave him a ride back to our rental home. He
then went to my father in law's house so they
could talk. My father in law asked if he knew that.
My husband told him yes, he did know. My father
in law then asked him why didn't tell him the truth,
and my husband told him that he wanted to, but
(11:11):
that his mom begged him not to and that she
was very sorry and that it would never happen again.
I mean, I don't know the time, I don't know
if this is the thing that could ever happen again,
you know, I mean it could. I'm bro she'd have
to get some surgery to have another kid, because that's bro,
She's this is granny at this point. You know, old
is a beautiful thing, you know, what's the oldest woman,
(11:33):
like sixty nine years old writer or whatever. She'd have
to beat the record, like it'd have to be crazy.
She said it would never happen again, and that he
wanted to protect both of them and his siblings from
the pain of divorce.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
Now.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
My father in law told him he understood, and that
his mother shouldn't have to put that burden on him,
and that he doesn't know what he would have done
if he was in the position, and that he forgives
and basically forgives them for holding the secret. He told
my father in law that he did bail brother in
law out of jail, and that my father in law
says he doesn't care, and that my husband can be
there for him as his brother, but he is done
(12:06):
having him as his son. He's not helping him. He
says that brother in law knew for years that someone
who wasn't his father had bailed him out and taken
care of him again and again and again, and brother
in law never even appreciated it, and that he was
done with it all. He asked my father in law.
A husband asked my father in law if he was
really divorcing his mom, and he said he was she
(12:27):
had told him about the affair when it happened, they
maybe could have worked past it, but she lied to
him for decades and that's what he couldn't forgive. And
he can't forgive that she passed off also another man's
child as his son. He's done with her and he
never wants to see either of them again. I mean, yeah,
when when when?
Speaker 2 (12:47):
When? I mean, that's fair.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
When something bakes for twenty years, it's hard to eat
it out the ovens charcoal. At this point, it's been
bacon for two decades.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
He then apologized to my husband about the house and
that he knew it was wrong and that all of
this reminded him about the importance of keeping your vows
and promises. So so father in law is now we're
kind of coming to a kum mayor. He's like, hey,
I'm sorry, I stole the son, the house from your son. Yeah,
you know, and did all this. He's finally seen the reason. Hey,
that's that's a win, I guess, I do think.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
I mean he's been he's had many very a whole moments,
but it does seem he is having some some growth,
some growth man in this moment, I'm like, we can
only hope that one good thing the situation, right, Hey, Sam,
I'm your og host here, we're going to get back
to the stories.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
But here's three minutes bads from our sponsor.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
So he would have his attorney correct the will to
its original state before he would continue filing the divorce proceedings.
So he's basically he's trying to get that locked in
before he does anything else legal. So my father in
law and mother in law signed a prenup with an
infidelity claus.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Oh yeah, get.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Dude, and she she knew that, and you imagine brow
bomb was that dick though? Bro nuclear clear the way
this family's going through. I mean, she really risked it all.
I mean everything risk also no wonder. I mean she
(14:27):
she knew not only from the infidelity clause she would
get nothing, but also that like if there's an infidelity clause,
that means that he is very anti cheating, right, Like
he's like or Ladys like Mickey's like, hey, if you
do this, it's gonna be it's gonna beel a in
a big way. Well, so back to this infidelity clause,
she will get nothing, and she didn't come into the
(14:47):
marriage with it, so she cannot interfere with the will
or the house anymore. That's she has no legal grounds
to stand on. He did, however, request that my husband
honor his request and not allow mother in law or
brother in law to access the property because splitting it
yeah yeah, or yeah, just letting them look there.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
So my husband agreed to this, but said that he
still needed to make sure that his mother was taken
care of. Regardless of what's happened, she is still his mother.
So my father in law then offered to build a
mother in law suite literally for the mother in law
at our rental home with brother in law, so she
could have somewhere to live and somewhere to keep an
eye on brother in law and his many children.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Hey, I feel like that to win.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
Well, that's that's that's fair. I think that's fair. It's
it's also it's like, hey, here's something you can take
care of what you need to and you're out of
the way. My husband asked if he would drop the
charges against brother in law for the sake of the kids.
My father in law said he would see what he
could do about it, so we'll see. My husband thanked
him for talking to him, and that he'd see him
(15:51):
again once our child was feeling better. So my husband
called mother in law, who was still a wreck, and
told her what they had talked about and about her
were moving in with brother in law and she's lost it.
My husband then reminded her of their prenup and that
he had kept her secret for as long as he
did and now that he actually needed to stand with
(16:12):
his dad, and she reluctantly agreed to that. He also
spoke to brother in law, who was also pissed off
that he wouldn't be getting the property and now would
have to share the house with his mom. Oh my god,
du he doesn't want to share it the house with
his mom. Yeah, that's what he's been saying this whole time.
I want to move into my new house. About the mom.
He's made his wants and needs crystal Clearly, he's a gentleman.
(16:36):
If he was in therapy, he'd be thriving right now.
And so my husband also reminded him that we bailed
him out of jail and we were letting him live
in our home at cost. The very least he could
do for us and his mother is to let her
live here too, so he reluctantly agreed. Oh thank god.
(16:57):
Finally my husband called the sister to see how she
was doing. She and my father in law had a
long talk and they're doing okay. He was disappointed that
neither her rachel or my husband told her the truth,
and that hurts because he still loves her and that
he will always be there for her, but that he
needs some time to work through some things, and he's
going to call her and my husband when he's really
(17:20):
ready to have another family dinner again. I feel like
it might be. I can't understand him not wanting to
have work of trauma, dude, but that we'd be going
out to eat from I understand. My husband and I
had a long talk about how he feels, and he
says he feels good about getting that weight off his
chest and having it out the open again. He's had
(17:42):
to hold this secret for years. Holding secrets are no fun,
absolutely no fun, and one this like nuclear is, is
so huge that like changes the fabric of your family. Absolutely.
He feels bad about his mom, but that she made
her choices and has to stand by them, and he
will make sure that she's taken care of brother in
law drops the ball, so yeah, he'll make sure his
(18:02):
mom is good either way. So it's, you know, no harm,
no foul. Essentially, everyone's getting what they deserve. We aren't
sure what that looks like yet, but we'll still cross
that bridge when we get to it. I asked him
how he felt about the will being reinstated, and he
said that he's relieved that we will not have to
worry about our son anymore. And then he's grateful that
everything worked out the way God intended it to. Man,
(18:26):
if that's God's plan, God's yeah, goodness. I don't know
about that being God's plan, but it's someone's planned. A
came to fruition. By the way, ladies and gentlemen, there's
a place where you can see more insane plans unfold
like this and Sam Kean, do we know where that is?
Speaker 2 (18:49):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (18:49):
If you search Okay story Time wherever you get your podcasts,
I'm talking Spotify, Apple podcast I hearn't radio app. Just
search Okay Storytime. There is two thousand plus episodes of
stories just like this.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Yeah, go check it out.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
But ladies and gentlemen, we have we have a finale
here right before we dive into it just just quick
closing thoughts.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
Man.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
I mean, I it does feel like we kind of
ended in a decent spot. I would say the end
of the spot was explosive. I don't like how devious
Opie was. Yeah, but it kind of ended. Oh kay,
I think it ended. Okay, could we say everyone sucks here? Yeah,
(19:34):
father in laws, I don't think. I don't think Opie's
husband sucks opis. Opie's husband is like, yeah, yeah, what
did you do?
Speaker 2 (19:40):
What did he do?
Speaker 1 (19:41):
I don't It was unclear how in kahoots about this
whole plane heat. He was very foggy. And also they're
not splitting with his like other sibling to the sister,
you know, like I feel like there's there's a holishness
all around. Yeah, yeah, I think there was at least Yeah,
basically for the majority of people except Robert the fourth
(20:04):
Robert just hold the downs, being a being a kid,
saying a word, and just being being himself. Exactly one
hundred ladies and gentlemen. Let's get to the finale of
the saga real quick. So as for brother in law's bile,
father the lover, Okay, he wondering.
Speaker 2 (20:23):
I was wondering.
Speaker 1 (20:25):
He emailed me after the dinner and asked what the
hell happened because he had no idea. Dude, like, father
in law started throwing hand and he's just like, all right,
I'm out. He emailed me after the dinner, asked what
the hell happened, and I told him my husband couldn't
handle seeing the man who slept with his wife in
person and lost it. He was free to reach out
(20:46):
to brother in law and arrange a meeting if he
wanted to, and to not contact me again. So at
least I guess another little decent ending here that they
could reunite and actually have a relationship now, which, hey,
that's that's something. That's something, and this never would happen
to of any of this one down shout out to OP.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
I guess right.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
I sent him brother in law's phone number and deleted
the email address. I have no idea if they're in
contact or have any current plans to meet. Thank you
everyone for following my story and for all of your advice.
I hope I never have to do this ever again.
Being a master manipulator just isn't for me. I mean,
you did pretty well, You're pretty good at it. You
(21:23):
did it like Lebron, so it's hard to say Lebron
doesn't love basketball yep and is quite frankly exhausting, but
for my son, it will always be worth it.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
Wow, what a saga, What a mastermind. But I'm kind
of I'm happy with where it ended right, absolutely crazy story.
