While My Family Fought Over Grandma’s Will, I Was the Only One Who Took Her Beloved Dog and Discovered the Secret She Left Behind — Story of the Day

“I know you inherited everything from Grandma!” my mother screamed.

“All I inherited was Berta,” I said.

“What?” she asked, not understanding.

“Berta, Grandma’s dog,” I said.

“Don’t lie to me!” my mother yelled. “You lived with her for the last six months. She must have left everything to you! You were always her favourite granddaughter,” she said, overplaying that last line.

“Grandma didn’t give me money, just like she didn’t give any to you,” I answered.

“Liar!” my mother screamed. “Where is it? I gave birth to you! You owe me that money!”

“I have nothing!” I cried, tears running down my face.

“We’ll see about that, witch!” my mother spat and left.

I closed the door and sank to the floor, unable to stop crying. Berta climbed into my lap, as if trying to comfort me.
