I Faked a Fiancé to Win the Family Inheritance Only to Discover My Sister’s Shocking Plot Against Me — Story of the Day

I thought faking a fiancé would help me escape my sister’s shadow, but in the process, I discovered true love had been closer than I realized.

When I received my mom’s Christmas invitation, I dreaded another family gathering where my perfect sister, Megan, would steal the spotlight. I needed a plan to stand out, so I decided to bring a fake fiancé.

At work, I found Zach, a reliable but far from charming colleague. After a brief pitch, he agreed to pretend for a holiday “side project.”

On Christmas Eve, as we arrived at my mom’s house, I braced myself for Megan’s judgment. Her condescending remarks about my new “fiancé” only fueled my resolve.

Later, I overheard Megan mocking me, claiming that our mom would leave her inheritance to the first one of us to marry. Determined to win this twisted race, I bought a cheap ring and forced Zach to propose at dinner.

The moment arrived, and Zach nervously asked me to marry him. I played along, hoping no one would see through the act. My mom was thrilled, and even presented me with her wedding dress, planning an immediate ceremony.

But then, Megan revealed she had fabricated the inheritance story to see how far I’d go. Humiliated and trapped, I had to make a choice: continue the charade or face the consequences.

In the end, I ran out of the ceremony, leaving the fake fiancé, the ring, and my family’s expectations behind. As I returned home, I was left with nothing but regret for letting jealousy dictate my actions.
