When Mary and George became grandparents, they cherished spoiling their granddaughter, Ellie. As Ellie approached college age, her attitude changed, making her a different person. One Sunday morning, Ellie arrived with a request that shocked them: she asked them to sell their house and give the money to her boyfriend Tom for his startup.
George and Mary, sensing something was wrong, devised a plan to reveal Tom’s true intentions. They created a fake lottery ticket, which Tom believed he had won. Once Tom thought he had money, he quickly left Ellie.
Heartbroken, Ellie realized Tom’s true character. “I thought he loved me,” she cried. Mary comforted her, explaining they wanted to protect her. Over time, Ellie’s wounds healed, and she grew closer to her grandparents, understanding the valuable lesson about trust and love they had imparted. Their bond strengthened, and Ellie learned to see through deceit.
