In Laws Demanded My Inheritance at the Will Reading—The Lawyer Had Something Else to Read

"Your grandmother's estate is worth approximately twelve million dollars, and we all know Eliza shouldn't get a penny since she's not even real family," my sister-in-law Margaret announced before the lawyer had even opened his briefcase. The same woman who'd convinced my husband that visiting his grandmother was "too depressing" now sat at the polished mahogany table calculating her shopping budget, while I held the worn poetry book Grandma Rose had pressed into my hands just three days before she died. Why had she whispered "Wait for the video, dear—they'll show their true colors, and then you'll understand everything" with such a knowing smile?

Attorney Harrison Blackford adjusted his wire-rimmed glasses, studying the room with the patience of someone who'd overseen countless family implosions. Besides Margaret and her grabby hands, the conference room held my husband Thomas, his brother James, their parents Richard and Patricia, and me—the outsider who'd married in eight years ago.
