I decided to surprise my son John by visiting his new restaurant. Dressed simply, I was met with disdain by a young woman who told me to move, saying, “This table is meant for someone dressed a bit more… appropriately.” I left, feeling humiliated.
The next day, I prepared a special lunch for John and his fiancée, only to discover that the same woman, Sarah, was his fiancée. During the meal, John and Sarah asked for a loan to buy a café. I was wary, especially after Sarah’s rude behavior. Sarah excused herself, and I told John about the incident at the restaurant, but he was skeptical.
Sarah’s true intentions were revealed when I recorded our conversation and played it during the café’s opening. John heard Sarah’s manipulative plans and ended their relationship. At a heartfelt dinner afterward, John apologized, acknowledging his mistake and expressing his gratitude.
