When Daphne’s father passed away, he left her his small house, but things took a complicated turn when her stepmother refused to pay rent or move out. Daphne was forced to evict her, and it seemed like a straightforward decision. However, a year later, Daphne’s stepmother dropped a bombshell that left her reeling.
The stepmother revealed that Daphne’s father had used his savings to buy her a small apartment, which she had been living in since the eviction. But there was a catch – the stepmother had signed a deal stating that the apartment would go to Daphne after she passed away, but only if she remained in the house she shared with Daphne’s father. Since she had been forced to leave, the stepmother was now free to leave the apartment to anyone she chose, and she had decided to leave it to her son.
Daphne was furious and felt betrayed by the revelation. She couldn’t understand why her father had kept this secret from her, and she felt that she had been lied to. She was now faced with the possibility of losing out on a significant inheritance, and she was unsure of what to do next.
All Daphne had done was protect her rights by evicting her stepmother, who had the means to pay rent but refused to do so. Now, she was paying the price for her father’s secret dealings. Daphne’s question was simple: what should she do next?
