I Organize Wedding for Rich Woman, on the Day of Event My Husband Gets Out of Groom’s Limousine — Story of the Day

One day, I attended the wedding of a very affluent woman, where I served as the event manager. I had been intricately involved in the planning of this wedding from the start. However, when I saw the groom for the first time, my heart nearly stopped. It was my John!

I’m Amanda, 28 years old, working as a private organizer of celebrations and events. Today was the grandest wedding I’d ever been assigned to handle, all for Catherine, a 38-year-old heiress of a clothing empire, who had spared no expense for her big day.

I had taken a two-hour flight to organize Catherine’s wedding, eager to bring her vision of a dreamy wedding to life. She wanted everything to be perfect, and so did I, but neither of us could have anticipated how the evening would soon take an unexpected turn.

Catherine was marrying Arnold, a young, affluent businessman, whom I had never met despite our numerous planning sessions.

“My fiancé trusts my vision, and given his busy schedule, he prefers handling business matters,” she’d say.

It struck me as odd that he never once showed up, not even to discuss the menu or the music. When I once asked, “Are you sure he wouldn’t want to weigh in on the band or the wine selection?” Catherine simply laughed, reassuring me he was fully on board with her choices.

While Catherine was confident about her beloved fiancé, my curiosity about this mysterious groom grew as the wedding neared.

Little did I know the biggest surprise was yet to come, and it would leave me frozen in the face of crisis.

Today, the wedding venue buzzed from dawn. I directed everyone meticulously, ensuring the ivory tablecloths and golden centerpieces were perfectly placed and the crystal glassware and fine china were carefully arranged.

“Carefully stack the plates by size on that table over there, and make sure the glasses are accounted for by the caterer’s checklist,” I instructed the loaders.

As the banquet hall filled, the air hummed with elegant music and whispered conversations. Then, a hush fell over the room as the presenter’s voice rang out, “Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the groom, Arnold!”

I was eager to finally see this mysterious man who had been too busy to show up at any of the prior meetings.

A sleek black limousine pulled up. The door opened, and instead of Arnold, out stepped John, dressed impeccably in a tuxedo. My John, or so he had been until he disappeared six months ago, leaving me with heartache and a mountain of debt.

I felt a chill run down my spine, and my feet cemented to the floor as I stared in disbelief. He looked around, and when his eyes met mine, there was no flicker of recognition, just the cool detachment of a stranger.

Shock rooted me to the spot as the room spun around me. Here was the man I once loved, now Catherine’s groom, living a new life under a new name. How could this be happening?

His presence suddenly made me relive the painful memories of the day I found he had left. That was when I experienced the horror of seeing his belongings gone and our bank accounts drained. The man I trusted with my heart had stolen my savings.

As he confidently walked toward the banquet hall, a guest congratulated him with a pat on the back. Arnold, or John as I knew him, smiled with the charm of the perfect groom, yet beneath that facade was the con man who had devastated my life. As he vanished into the crowd, I decided I had to expose him before Catherine fell victim like I had.

And looking at him, I remembered the day my life changed…

6 months ago…

One night, John and I were discussing our upcoming wedding plans in our cozy bedroom, the room bathed in the gentle glow of the bedside lamp.

“And how’s everything coming along with the wedding plans?” I inquired, aware of his lead on organizing our celebration.

He looked concerned. “Well, all the major payments are done. The venue, the caterers, the band, and the decorators,” he explained. “But I’ve used up all the funds.”

Confused, I pressed on, “All the funds? Even the money we set aside?”

“Yes,” John sighed. “That and a bit more from my own accounts. There’s been a hitch with my project. The payment I was supposed to get this month has been delayed.”

“Of course, I understand. Things happen,” I reassured him.

“Could you sign a power of attorney in my name? Just so I can handle the payments more smoothly,” he asked.

Trusting him completely, I agreed. “I got the confirmation from the bank today. You can use my accounts now. They said the power of attorney paperwork was all in order.”

“Thank you, Amanda. I promise this wedding is going to be everything we’ve dreamed of and more.”

That night, as we drifted to sleep, I felt secure in our love. To me, John was already my husband, and to him, I was already his wife. We had exchanged rings privately, but to the world, we were still an unmarried couple.

I trusted him with everything, yet I was unaware it would be our last night together.

The next morning, the bed beside me was cold and empty, the first sign of the nightmare that awaited. John’s usual morning presence was missing, and the room bore the eerie silence of his absence. My heart sank as I realized the depth of his deception.

“John?” I called out, hoping to hear him in the bathroom or kitchen, but there was only silence. My unease deepened as I walked through the cold apartment to the kitchen and then to other rooms—nothing.

That’s when I noticed muddy shoe prints leading to our closet. Heart pounding, I followed the trail and found the closet empty except for a few of my dresses.

Chilled, I grabbed my phone and saw notifications from the bank—one for $38,000 and another for $23,000, both withdrawn from my accounts just an hour ago. Panic set in as I dialed John’s number repeatedly, but it only reached voicemail.

“He wouldn’t,” I whispered in denial, tears clouding my vision as the truth sank in: John had disappeared, and with him, all our savings.

Driven by a mix of betrayal and desperation, I dressed and walked to the police station, feeling every step weigh heavy with his deceit. I managed to choke out to the officer at the desk, “Excuse me, I need to report a theft.”

In the office, Officer Harris asked, “Can you tell me more about how this happened?”

“My husband… I mean fiancé, John Freeman, has disappeared along with all our savings,” I explained, detailing how I had given him access to my bank accounts via a power of attorney to manage our wedding payments.

“He… he showed me receipts of caterers, decorators, and the venue and talked about the arrangements. I trusted him,” I admitted.

Officer Harris took notes, then explained that since John had power of attorney, his actions weren’t illegal per se.

“It’s complicated. We will try to investigate, try to find him, but recovering the money might be difficult if he’s not found,” he said, hinting at the bleak chances of recourse given John’s likely fictitious identity.

“I understand. Thank you for your help, Officer Harris,” I managed to say, standing up slowly.

He gave me his card and I left the police station in tears, a crushing realization settling in. John’s thorough deceit left me alone to face the fallout.

Present time…

There he was, John, now called Arnold, mingling confidently at his wedding, appearing every bit the affluent businessman he was impersonating. I knew the truth about him, but seeing him laughing and engaging with guests filled me with a mix of anger and fear.

Without hesitation, I marched towards him, my heart pounding. As he turned and saw me, his smile dropped momentarily. Before he could speak, I slapped him, the sound resonating across the hall, silencing nearby conversations.

“You are a scoundrel and a swindler!” I yelled, ensuring everyone could hear.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about. You must be mistaken,” he said.

Turning to the bride, Catherine, I exposed him, “This man is not who he claims to be! I know him as John; he is my ex who cheated on me right before our wedding. He left me drowning in debt and ran away with all my money!”

Arnold, now desperate, declared, “She’s mentally ill! Don’t listen to her. My name is Arnold, not John.”

Ignoring his lies, I retorted, “Oh, really? And I suppose you have a multitude of passports and names to use as well? How convenient for your scams!”

I pulled out my phone to call the police but was interrupted by a man stepping forward, his badge visible.

“Ma’am, my name is Peter Greenwood, and I’m the chief of the local police department. I’m going to have to ask you to leave,” he said sternly. “This is my sister’s wedding, and I know Arnold well. He’s a good man. You’re clearly confused.”

Defeated and furious, I left, my mind racing with plans for exposing John’s true identity. I couldn’t let him deceive Catherine as he had deceived me.

At a nearby cafe, I mulled over my options while sipping strong black coffee. Remembering Catherine’s story about her grandmother’s sister, Linda, who she wished could see her happiness, sparked an idea. It had been decades since Catherine last saw her.

“What if Linda comes to the wedding today?” I murmured to myself, envisioning a plan. There would be no real Linda—I would take her place.

Then, I called Carla, a talented makeup artist, and asked her to make me look like a 90-year-old woman. She agreed, and came to my place in no time.

Soon, I was sitting in my living room, transformed into an elderly woman, ready to reintroduce myself as Linda at the wedding. I was determined to expose Arnold and prevent another disaster.

Approaching the banquet hall entrance as “Linda,” I told the guards, “My name is Linda, I believe I’m expected.”

They hesitated, not finding my name on the list. “Oh, dear, there must be some mistake. Please, could you call Miss Catherine?” I requested with a frail voice.

Soon, Catherine approached, puzzled. “Who are you?” she asked.

“Don’t you recognize your grandmother Linda?” I replied, maintaining the elderly act.

Tears welled up in Catherine’s eyes as she embraced me. “Grandma? Wow, you look…it’s been ages! How did you— How did you know about today?”

“Grandma Linda always knows, my dear Catherine!” I chuckled.

Inside, I sought out the event coordinator and requested the microphone. Addressing the gathering, I began, “Good evening, everyone. I am so delighted to be here today to celebrate the union of these two wonderful souls.”

I glanced at Arnold, then announced, “And I have brought with me a very precious gift. A legacy that has been passed down in our family from generation to generation.”

Pulling out a fake sparkling diamond, I declared, “This is a precious diamond, worth about $800,000. It has been in the bank storage all my life, and I will return it there today. I give Catherine the right to use this storage and keep this diamond safe.”

While Catherine thanked me with tears, I watched Arnold closely. Two hours later, he made his move. He stood up, excused himself to use the toilet, and moments later, the lights went out. I knew it was Arnold. I knew he had his eyes on the diamond in my purse.

I quickly hid behind the back entrance with a glass decanter in my hand, leaving my purse on the table. As Arnold rushed through with the diamond, I struck him on the back of the head. He collapsed, dropping the diamond.

“You were right,” Catherine’s brother, the police chief, said upon witnessing the scene. He soon called his team at the wedding venue to arrest Arnold.

Catherine approached with shock and gratitude on her face. “Amanda, it was you all along?” she whispered.

I confirmed, explaining my actions to protect her. She was too shaken by the events on what was supposed to be the biggest day of her life. But a week later, imagine my surprise when she showed up to meet me, thanked me, and offered me a job as her personal assistant.

“I’d be honored, Catherine,” I accepted, embracing a hopeful future.

My Selfish Sister Stayed by Mom’s Side When She Fell Ill, but Everything Changed after the Doctor Shared Mom’s Last Words – Story of the Day

When Mom fell ill, my sister suddenly became the perfect daughter. She moved in with Mom and kept me away, claiming she was taking care of everything. But I knew my sister too well. Her motives were never pure. I couldn’t stop her, but everything changed when the doctor gave me Mom’s final note.

I never understood how such different children could grow up in the same family. Not until my sister and I became adults. Our mom raised us by herself, and the older I got, the more I realized how hard it was for her.

I remember the tiny apartment we lived in when I was little. It was always cold in the winter, and I could hear the wind whistling through the cracks in the windows. Mom worked two jobs just to keep a roof over our heads, but it was never enough.

Sometimes, there wasn’t much food in the house. I still remember the nights when our neighbor, Mrs. Jenkins, brought us dinner.

She would kindly smile as she handed over a steaming pot of soup or a plate of pasta.

I didn’t understand back then how much it meant. I only knew that I wasn’t hungry anymore.

But I noticed how Mom never ate with us. She would sit quietly, pretending she wasn’t hungry, but I knew the truth.

She gave everything she had to us. Over time, though, things got better. Mom found a better job, and slowly, we climbed out of poverty.

She saved enough to move us into a nicer house, and eventually, Samira and I went to college.

But Samira didn’t remember those hard times the way I did. She was too young to understand the struggles Mom faced.

Maybe that’s why she turned out the way she did. How should I put it? A little selfish and carefree.

Even after she finished college, she didn’t want to work. She kept asking Mom for money and spent it like it would never run out.

But things took a turn for the worse. One day, Mom called me and asked me to come over.

“Is everything okay?” I asked.

“Yes, yes, I just need to talk to you,” Mom replied.

Her words echoed in my head as I drove to her house after work. I felt uneasy. Mom never called me like that. When I arrived, the front door was open, so I walked in.

“Mom?” I called out.

“I’m in the kitchen, honey,” she called back.

I walked in and saw her sitting at the table with a cup of tea. Her hands rested on the table, but they looked tired. Her eyes, usually bright, seemed dull.

“What happened? What did you want to talk about?” I asked as I sat down.

Mom took a deep breath. “I went to the doctor today. Unfortunately, I have bad news,” she said softly.

My heart pounded. “Why? What’s wrong?”

“My heart,” Mom said quietly. “They gave me a year, at best.”

The words hit me like a brick. “Isn’t there anything that can be done? I’ll pay whatever it takes, just tell me,” I said, my voice shaking.

“A year is the most I’ll get with treatment. Without it, I might not even make it two months,” Mom said.

“No, no, this can’t be true,” I whispered. Tears filled my eyes.

“But it’s true,” Mom said. “It looks like all the stress and overwork didn’t do me any good.”

I couldn’t hold back, so I moved closer and hugged her. “We’ll get through this, Mom. I’ll be here with you.”

“I know,” Mom said softly, stroking my hair like she used to when I was little. “Just don’t tell Samira anything for now.”

“Why not? She’ll keep asking you for money when you need it for treatment,” I said.

“She’s living off her new boyfriend right now, so we can be calm for a while,” Mom replied.

I shook my head. “This is wrong.”

“I’ll tell her myself when the time is right,” Mom said.

Mom told Samira everything a month after our conversation. Samira had come over to ask for money again after breaking up with her boyfriend.

After talking to Mom, Samira came straight to me. She didn’t even knock. She walked in like she owned the place and sat on my couch.

“I don’t want you visiting Mom,” Samira said.

“Are you out of your mind? Mom is sick. I’ll visit her. Someone needs to help her,” I said. I couldn’t believe she was saying this.

“I know why you’re so concerned about her — to get all her inheritance for yourself. But that won’t happen,” Samira said.

“Are you serious? I don’t care about the money. I want to help Mom,” I said. “Or are you judging everyone by yourself?”

Samira rolled her eyes. “I know that’s not true. Mom always loved me more because she gave me more money. So now, you want to get something after she’s gone,” she said.

“That’s so stupid if that’s really what you think. I’ll keep visiting Mom. Someone needs to help her,” I said firmly.

“Don’t worry about that. I’ve already planned everything. I’m moving in with Mom and taking care of her,” Samira said.

“You? Since when are you so caring? You’ve never cared about anyone but yourself,” I said.

“That’s not true. I’ve always cared about Mom, and now she needs me. So don’t even try coming over. I won’t let you in,” Samira said.

She stood up, grabbed her bag, and left without another word. I stared at the door after she was gone.

I couldn’t believe how selfish Samira was. I knew she was doing it for herself. Only for herself.

But as it turned out, she wasn’t joking. Samira didn’t let me see Mom, always coming up with excuses like, “Mom is sleeping,” “Mom doesn’t feel well,” or “Mom went to the doctor.”

So, I texted Mom and asked her to let me know when Samira wouldn’t be home so I could visit.

One afternoon, Mom texted that Samira had gone to the mall and I could come over. I stopped by the grocery store to get some supplies and headed straight to Mom’s.

When I arrived, Mom was lying on the couch, watching TV. She looked tired, but her eyes lit up when she saw me.

“How are you feeling?” I asked as I stepped closer.

“Not too bad. I’m managing,” Mom said with a weak smile.

“I brought you some groceries,” I said, placing the bag on the floor. “I got your favorite tea and some fresh fruit.”

“Thank you, honey,” Mom said, but her face grew serious. “Why haven’t you been visiting me? Samira said you didn’t want to because I’d become a burden.”

My heart stopped. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. “She said what?!” I was outraged. “I didn’t come because Samira wouldn’t let me. She always had an excuse. As soon as I had the chance, I came,” I said.

“I see,” Mom replied.

“How is it with Samira? Does she help?” I asked.

For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney

For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney

“Yes, yes. She’s by my side almost all the time. She cooks, cleans, and brings me medicine,” Mom said. “I think my illness has changed her for the better,” she added.

“Yeah, right,” I muttered under my breath. “And do you have enough money?” I asked, trying to change the subject.

“For now, yes, although Samira spends a lot. I’m afraid we won’t have enough for the medicine soon,” Mom said, her voice filled with concern.

“Don’t worry about that. I’ll talk to the doctor and take care of everything,” I said firmly.

“Alright, thank you,” Mom said with a tired smile.

I stayed with her for a while longer. We talked about small things. I didn’t want to leave, but Mom said she was tired and wanted to go to bed. I helped her to her room, guiding her gently.

“Nicole,” Mom softly said when she lay down. “I’ve lived a long life, and I understand everything.”

I just nodded. Her words didn’t make sense to me, but I thought she was just tired.

I put away the groceries and quietly left. But I didn’t go home. I couldn’t. I drove straight to the hospital.

I knocked on Dr. Miller’s office door, and after hearing, “Come in!” I entered.

“Hello, I’m the daughter of one of your patients, Martha…”

“Oh, you must be Nicole,” said Dr. Miller, not even letting me finish Mom’s full name. “Have a seat. Martha talked a lot about you.”

I sat down across from Dr. Miller. “I want to talk about Mom’s treatment. From now on, send all the bills to me, for anything,” I said.

“I thought Samira was paying for everything,” Dr. Miller said, his eyebrows raised.

“Yes, with Mom’s money, but she spends a lot too. I don’t want Mom worrying about finances,” I said.

“Alright, we can arrange that,” Dr. Miller said with a nod.

I felt some relief knowing I could finally help Mom without interference. But I knew this was just the beginning.

When I started receiving the hospital bills, I was shocked by the amounts. Each bill was higher than I expected.

I couldn’t believe Mom had enough money for all of it, considering how much Samira was spending.

For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney

For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney

I wondered where the money was coming from. I knew Mom’s savings were running low.

With each passing month, Mom’s condition worsened. Her strength faded, and she spent more time in bed.

She had to be hospitalized, and I was finally able to visit her whenever I wanted. Samira couldn’t stop me from going to the hospital.

I spent every evening by Mom’s side. I read to her, held her hand, and made sure she was comfortable.

Samira watched me with resentment. Trying to win Mom’s attention, she practically moved into the hospital and never left her side. But I knew her reasons were not pure.

One evening, Samira came up to me while I was sitting with Mom. Her expression was serious.

“Can we talk?” she asked.

I followed her into the hallway. I crossed my arms and waited.

“Look, Mom’s money is running out. I don’t know how much longer it’ll last,” Samira said. She avoided my eyes.

“I’m paying all the medical bills. How can the money be gone?” I asked.

For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney

For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney

“Well, there are other expenses too. Groceries, utilities… I need money to live too,” Samira said. Her voice was softer now, almost like she was trying to make me feel guilty.

“That’s the problem,” I said firmly. “You spend it all on yourself. I’m not going to support you.” I turned and went back into Mom’s room.

A few days after that conversation, I got a call from the hospital. My heart sank as I answered. Mom was gone.

For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney

I was devastated. I rushed to the hospital, my hands trembling. When I arrived, Samira and her lawyer were already there.

“Since I took care of Mom, all the inheritance goes to me,” Samira said instead of greeting me. Then, her lawyer handed me a will.

I shoved the will back into his hands. “Mom just died, and you’re thinking about money?!” I yelled at Samira.

“I don’t want any conflicts later,” she said, her tone flat.

“You’re unbelievable,” I said and walked away.

I went straight to Dr. Miller’s office. As soon as he saw me, his serious expression softened.

“I’m so sorry. Your mother loved you more than anyone,” he said gently.

For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney

For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney

“Thank you,” I replied, barely holding back tears.

“Before she passed, your mom gave me something to give you,” Dr. Miller said. He took an envelope out of his drawer and handed it to me. Mom’s handwriting on the envelope read: “For My True Daughter.”

“Do you mind if I step outside to read this?” I asked.

I stepped out of his office and sat on one of the chairs in the hallway. My hands were shaking as I held the envelope.

I took a deep breath and opened it. Inside was a will. I read through it carefully, and my heart pounded.

It was more recent than the one Samira had, and it was valid. Mom had left everything to me.

There was also an account I didn’t know about. The balance was more than I had ever imagined. She had thought of everything.

A small note was attached to the will. I recognized Mom’s handwriting instantly.

I told you I understand everything. I can see real care and distinguish it from selfish motives. That’s why I’m leaving everything to you, Nicole.

I hope you keep that kindness and humanity in your heart. I love you, Mom.

Tears filled my eyes as I read her words. I covered my face and cried. Even after her death, Mom had protected me.

I felt a wave of gratitude. I didn’t know what lay ahead, but I was certain I would honor Mom’s memory. I would live how she had lived — with love, kindness, and strength.
