My mother-in-law can’t understand plain speech.
Before a business trip, I told her over and over not to touch anything in my study, but she mixed up the contracts I needed.
I lost a ten-million-dollar deal and was held responsible by the company, which fired me.
To make up for what she’d done, she swore she’d help take care of my child so I could find another job.
I froze my breast milk in the fridge, labeled it, and left instructions about feeding times, portions, and all the things she needed to watch out for.
It wasn’t until my baby ended up in the hospital that I learned she’d poured all the breast milk down the drain and fed my baby expired powdered milk for the elderly.
Even worse, she secretly gave my baby sprouted peanuts, choking my child to death.
Afterward, she wailed, "She was my granddaughter too. Do you think I don’t care? Maybe I should go down there and keep her company..."
My husband beat me up. "My mom worked so hard to help you raise the child, and now you’re trying to drive her to her death. Do you have any idea how hard it is for an old woman?"
My sister-in-law came after me too, saying I was ungrateful and deserved to be left without descendants for bullying an old woman.
But they didn’t know that I’d stopped my mother-in-law from sabotaging them time and time again.
They drove me into depression, and I was sent to a psychiatric hospital, where I was tormented to death.
Given another chance, I’ll protect my baby and myself, and I won’t stop my mother-in-law from making trouble for everyone else.
This time, I’ll watch her run every last one of them over without discrimination!
