It's great to see Elanor finally standing up for herself! Sometimes, waiting for the right moment to act is the best way to show your strength.
Great story that brought a family together
This story like many others is a good reason for prenuptial agreements if one person comes in to the marriage with a
Large amount of money 💰 stashed away ... 😊
Half way through this I was thinking, I hope there is a prenup, because I am sure *his* parents would have insisted on it, to protect *his* wealth.
That’s why you don’t let others know what you have and what you’re doing. It’s just their opinion and you know who you’re and keep living your best life.❤
Absolutely! Keep your cards close to your chest. And ALWAYS have a secret stash of money SOMEWHERE.
Wonderful story thks for sharing
Curtis is a poor choice for a husband. He emptied their joint account w/o her permission. Why would she want him? He wants her because she is a billionaire. He is just a thief.
Make it make sense.
Right, that type of behavior doesn't change, it hides temporarily, dazzled by the flashing $$$$$ signs
Why would she decide to stay with that mama's boy after he took her savings to go on a vacation without telling her he took the money from the joint account . She should have divorced him instead!
She still loved him enough to give him a second chance. Specially after he chose her instead of his mother. With countcilling he was getting stronger to be his own self.
I'm guessing it's a cultural difference. In many eastern cultures, the patriarcal in laws hold great power over a marriage. In westerm culture, not as much
Exactly. This one made me want to throw up.
I loved the happy ending .awesome story .
How is she brilliant and dense at the same time????
As usual with these AI stories, there are things that don't make any sense.
Why would she give MIL a check for the money spent, if most of it was taken of her joint account??
If you fear criminal interference in your business from in-laws then you had no business marrying into the family. Why the heck would you live life with a man, and a family, that keeps you on edge and on guard.
Make it make sense.
Great story
Eleanor should divorce Curtis, he’s not worth the effort. Curtis is untrustworthy, divorce him, leave the controlling Vienna behind.
First of all y'all keep saying it was her money. But Eleanor told the truth she only put in her teacher's pay and don't forget that teachers don't make a lot of money. But remember that her husband came from money and he also works for a company that pays him lots of money and Eleanor mentions how her husband was promoted in one year two times because of the contracts and deals he made for this company. Not to mention his over time bonuses throughout those years. But like she said something happened because out of the blue her husband started letting his mother control him. And it wasn't just her husband that she wanted to get respect from it was her mother in law. Her husband in the beginning and during the years of their marriage was a loving kindhearted good MAN. But don't forget that she knew that her husband also wasn't putting all of his money into their joint account especially the savings account. Now I believe that Eleanor was right about something that happened during those years.That her husband's mother started controlling him. Now remember in real life a teacher's salary isn't a lot of money. And it was her husband who used the money from their joint account for this vacation his mother wanted. But remember how his mother would belittle her because she was a teacher. And don't forget that Eleanor also mentioned that during those years her husband was promoted and received a bigger pay raise and not to forget the bonuses he also received. I believe that her mother in law may have been sick and during her time in the hospital and knowing how her mother in law is very melodramatic probably told her son that she was dying. Or it could have been something else his mother used to control him. But her husband wasn't stupid because he didn't put all of his money into their joint accounts. Remember that Eleanor is a teacher and before she decided to build her business she only had a teacher's salary and remember that it's two accounts a checking and a savings account. And the one who would put more money was her husband. But he never touched their joint checking account but it was the money from their joint savings account. And remember that Eleanor also said that when she met her husband he was a good kind loving man. And during the beginning of their marriage everything was GOOD!! But later on something happened. And don't forget that her mother and father in laws have money and remember it was his father who paid for the upgrade to the royal suite while they were on vacation. Now she knows that her husband loves her and he didn't have anything against her being a teacher it was his mother. Because of the last lunch or dinner before they went on their vacation. Eleanor learns that her husband had two more promotions and bonuses at work not to mention that I really believe that he didn't put all of his money in their joint account. I believe that she may have searched their bedroom and his home office because all of his money wasn't in their account. But he did the same thing she did. All of her husband's promotions, bonuses and overtime pay were in a different account. And y'all also forgot that Eleanor said that her husband's family has money they could have been millionaires or billionaires. But even his sister and his father were trying to figure out what happened. And why wasn't he letting his mother control his life. And I'm very proud of her because I have watched other Novels Stories/ Videos and the same job her husband has and now he's building up his own private business and I would say give him between one - two years and he will become an self made billionaire. And like I said watching the other Stories from the Novels I noticed that her/ Eleanor husband's job description is very similar to the other Novels Stories. And her husband has the knowledge and even the clients who he has worked with plus the investments her husband will probably have more than 5 billions or more. And if I'm right her husband really didn't put all of his money in their joint accounts. To me he should have talked about it with her instead of not including her from the family vacation. It was her mother in law who would disrespect her for being a teacher. Everyone else in his family was happy that she was a teacher except for his mother. And I also realized that her husband never asked her to put more money into their joint accounts. And I hope the author writes part 2 because her husband's business is going to blow up. And if y'all ever watch the other Stories/ Novels her/ Eleanor husband's job description brings in lots and lots of money and in the other Stories Novels that job description pays rises up into the billions and if they get clients who are already billionaires and clients who are Tycoons who are worth Trillions. And those types of clients Eleanor's husband can build an empire worth hundreds of billions. But I'm glad that his mother learned a very GOOOODD lesson about the importance of education. And her husband who may have shown her how much money he truly has throughout the years of their marriage the promotions bonuses pay raises and overtime bonuses he received but I believe that he wanted to build up his own private business. But don't forget that Eleanor only put her teacher's paycheck and she may have divided her paycheck some went into their checking account and the other went into their savings account. And remember he didn't ask her for any money but we just didn't see what she found out how much money he still has from the promotions bonuses pay raises and overtime bonuses pay. Eleanor was smart she searched right after they left and she kept saying it wasn't about getting revenge. It was about being disrespected for being a teacher and being reminded that a teacher salary isn't a lot of money. And her husband even if he put more money into their checking and savings accounts. He should have talked to her about taking money out of their joint savings account and using it for a family trip. Eleanor I'm so proud of you and I know you knew that your husband had another bank account. I really hope to see part 2. Curtis business is blooming. And how your mother in law loves teaching others.
OP should have divorced curtis. He failed as a husband. End of marriage.
How did she hide income when she has to pay taxes? He's only standing up to his mother because of the money.
Filed taxes separately...I know many couple like this
He will revert to his old ways, and then him and his mother will creep into the company attempt to take over said company. Looking forward to part 2.
Excellent story!
Shoulda made him choose BEFORE the billion dollar reveal.
That’s why you don’t let others know what you have and what you’re doing. It’s just their opinion and you know who you’re and keep living your best life.
Upsetting story,left me with a bitter taste!
Good story. Love the ending
Good story…..change can happen if you have courage.
Someone can’t do basic math. How did it go from 30,000 for a couple which he was paying for to 65,000 and he’s going without her? Or did I miss something?!
Spending
Money lol
He decided to pay for his parents and sister...they are all entitled ...makes sense they will push and push the envelope
One of the better stories
Nice story not the typical MIL n DIL chaos
It makes no sense to me to reconcile with husband with greedy mother after announcing your wealth.
The control freak will not give up.
This is the worst story. Why would she stay married to a man who only values her now that she has a lot of money. 😮
Her mother in law said it was 30,000 per couple. He withdrew 65,000? Who else is he paying for? Geez!
Presumably Curtis has no claim on her business if they divorce.
Some people really enjoy teaching , no matter how much they're being paid - they're pretty much babysitting kids when some neglectful parents doesn't want to be bothered with their own kids - who really needs a raise by what they do in life . Some kids love their teachers because they learn something and the teachers spend more time with them than their parents . I loved my elementary school teachers - except for my third grade teacher - but , the others were absolutely amazing and wonderful - high school , not so much , but , I only liked my home economics and history/government teachers - other than that , they deserve more money than they get . And Curtis and Eleanor needs a divorce. And tell her MIL to kick rocks.
Curtis needs to be act like a grown man instead of a " Mama's boy " and grow a spine and stand up to his mother. Or Eleanor should divorce Curtis for stealing her money , and her mother needs to be axed , I'm happy that a member of Curtis's family ; Sylvia , helped Eleanor. And maybe if the divorce papers will be a catalyst to help him see that he blew it and maybe Curtis and Eleanor will stay married and get the marriage counseling will help a lot .
I have a little bit left to listen to the ending of the story and I didn't want to continue I think this is so dumb I would have divorced him all of a sudden he's interested yeah right he's interested in the money
Unless they have a pre nuptial agreement he is going to be a rich man regardless
Curtis could find it easier to stand up to his mother as she has the power of wealth which is greater than his mother. He can just jump from his poor mother to the more powerful wife.
$30,000 per person for a vacation? Why $65,000 if only the husband was going? I can see $5000 for spending but why the extra $30,000?
Has Curtis got any money for a startup after spending their joint savings or is he living off her while competing with his new venture.?
Vienna? As in... sausage?
So illogical. Curtis' excuse for emptying the bank account was because they didn't have a lot of money. So, the best thing to do when you're broke is to blow what you do have on a luxury trip, not just for yourself, but for everyone going????
Then it ends up with paying Vienna $85K for the trip Curtis used his and Eleanor's money to pay for in the first place and then the extra $20K. According to earlier in the story, Curtis took his and Eleanor's money to pay for the trip. Why reimburse Vienna and Judah for what they didn't pay for to begin with???? Now $85K has become $170K. Tell me, how does that even begin to make sense?
This isn't a matter of a language barrier. It's extremely poor writing.
Do you think you still have your husband if you don't have a lot of money he only sided with you cause he know you are already rich imagine imtying your life savings with out your approval
I wouldn't trust Curtis. He's in love with her money.
Did not enjoy this one, seems like the hubby was rewarded.
Why did Eleanor have to give Vienna, Judah $85K, $65K for Curtis emptying his joint account, and for the $20K Royal upgrade? Curtis was the one who spent the $65K, not Vienna and Judah. (Edited for typos)
Who knows, maybe some scenes were deleted.😂
I agree. It just shows some sites do not edit their stories
