After seven years of living under my roof and relying on my money, they hit it big. My daughter-in-law and my son suddenly won an $85 million lottery. That same day, she set a few of my boxes right by the door and snapped, “We don’t need your help anymore.

The house and the business are mine now.” I stood in the dust, clutching my bag, as he pulled away without looking back. No phone. No cash. And that’s when I realized—I wasn’t alone.

One night, my son invited me to dinner. The moment I walked in, there was an extra place already set at the table… for my husband—the man who passed away two years ago. I asked why.

My daughter emailed me: ‘Don’t come to my wedding. Just watch the livestream.’ I didn’t argue. I simply replied, ‘Okay.’ I wasn’t invited to my daughter’s wedding in Paris. She even added, “If you want to ‘be part of it,’ just watch from an online map window.” So I answered with one sentence: “Sure. Enjoy your big day.” The next morning, my phone wouldn’t stop ringing.
