Jack, 55, believed love mattered more than money. But his stepdaughters, Sandra and Amelia, only seemed to care about cash. They demanded he pay for their double wedding, which broke his heart. Jack decided to teach them a lesson about family and respect.

Jack, who had married Mary and embraced her three daughters as his own, supported them through college. While Lily, the eldest, was always kind, Sandra and Amelia remained distant and critical. Despite his efforts, they never treated him like family.

One day, they asked Jack to pay for their weddings, claiming, “You paid for Lily’s, didn’t you?” Jack, hurt by their entitlement, suggested a deal: they would live with him for three months, helping out and showing genuine respect. If they changed, he’d pay for the weddings.

During those months, Sandra and Amelia slowly began to understand Jack’s love and sacrifices. Their attitudes shifted, and they realized he was a true father figure. They apologized, acknowledging, “You were always there.”

In the end, Jack contributed to their weddings, but the greatest gift was the newfound respect and love that blossomed between them.
