My Rich Dad Left Me to Take Care of His Wife and My Stepsisters

so my dad's married to a gold digger and she has two daughters who do nothing but buy clothes every time they step out of the house now he doesn't know how to deal with it i'm ryan and this is the story of why my dad fled the country and left me to take care of his gold digger wife and step daughters dad was loaded he's done very well for himself in real estate when he was younger and whatever money he didn't spend he invested he was able to provide for me and mom and in ways more than we could have ever asked for dad met crystal on a tropical island while they were both on their travels at first we all thought it was a romantic story for the ages dad left for his trip a lonely widower and when he returned a month later he was the happiest i'd seen him since my mom passed his whole side of the family welcomed crystal with open arms treated her well made her feel like a part of the family and never thought ill of her intentions even as i was still grieving for the loss of my mother i welcomed her into our home when she hastily moved in we should have seen the red flags but there were hardly any when dad introduced us to crystal she was an upbeat outgoing adventurous woman who traveled to volunteer at orphanages she was so good at acting the kind sweet girlfriend that when they got married and her entire personality did a 180 we were all shocked when grandma heard she called me sounding as if she was about to have a stroke i i gifted her my mother's pearls she trembled over the phone see what seemed to be a match made in tropical heaven turned out to be an elaborate gold digging expedition the moment crystal was out of her wedding dress she turned to my dad and said half of what's yours is mine now my dad ever the romantic dove into the marriage without doing his due diligence he never found out about crystal's past and didn't even bother with a prenup so when crystal said that on their wedding day he just took it as her meaning that their lives are now won he was so love struck that he didn't even register the words that were coming out of her mouth despite the fact that her entire demeanor had changed dad was still head over heels for her in no time at all she was no longer the loving attentive wife crystal became a highly critical individual who possessed little patience and harbored no semblance of love towards my dad or towards any members of his side of the family we all saw it and we expressed as such but our advice simply fell on deaf ears i tried several times to tell him to open a secret offshore account just for his security but he always brushed me off and said the notion was ridiculous i don't know if my dad really was just blinded by love or if he was simply trying his best to make it work no matter the cost and let me tell you the cost was astronomical shortly after the wedding crystal brought her daughters in to live with me and my dad and it didn't take a day for destiny and chardonnay to feel at home as soon as their fake designer coats were hung and their butts hit the living room couch their new territory was marked it was an odd feeling to be in my childhood home with my sole parent but to also feel like i didn't belong i was the outsider the dominant overbearing manipulative big spenders had taken over as his only son and the only reminder of his old family i admit i felt overlooked brushed aside even but i didn't blame my dad after all three women who were exceptionally talented at spending his money occupied much of his time he had to come out of retirement not six months from his second wedding and unfortunately his fortunes weren't as kind the second time around the business he tried to launch tanked and his return into real estate didn't turn out so great either let's just say the properties weren't flying off the shelves conversely the ladies were doing quite well at spending his cash they bought shoes new cars and boxes upon boxes of imported beauty products for the first time in the 16 years that we'd lived in that house there were builders doing renovations and extensions a year later our elegant country home metamorphosed into a kitsch grotesque mishmash of clashing architectural styles there were concrete fountains topped with cherubs everywhere you looked and its crowning glory in the backyard was a massive pool that always had its water dyed a disconcerting shade of pink thankfully they never touched my mom's old garden that was the one thing my dad got from them i moved into my university's dorm to escape the torment of living with crystal and her daughters and for a few years my life was normal again but as soon as i'd finished my degree in finance and i'd gotten settled at my own place my dad begged for me to meet him he said it was about something incredibly important i was sitting in front of a ragged heavily eye-bagged version of my dad in my new apartment when he finally admitted what he'd been going through i'm destitute son he said as he began to break down it fled me dry as my father began to sob uncontrollably i finally let go of my grievances instead of telling him i told you so after years of trying to get through to him i simply said how can i help th the bank they're after me i i took out a huge loan you know to fund the new business but but oh ryan i'm so sorry my dad continued to sob i tried my best to comfort him as i said tell me dad i need to know what you did so i can fix it the the money the bank gave me it's all gone i gave it to crystal she said her mother was sick needed treatment urgently the business was gone under and now i can't pay the bank the crystal lied they're gonna take the house son all of it all of my hard work your mom's old garden i have no income left they're frozen all my accounts crystal's selling my cars i i don't know the banks the banks might take me to court i don't want to go to jail son if you'd open that secret account this whole thing would be much easier to take care of but i'll do what i can dad i have some money to put away i said i saw a hint of a smile on my dad's face thank you son but you won't have to do everything without help i always take care of my family you are my family i did open that offshore account but i need you to manage everything from here on out i got a jet kid relief washed over me but it was quickly followed by confusion jet you got a jet where dad you have to face these problems too i said but when he explained further i understood why he had to leave son i can't be around her she can wrap anyone around her fingers and i'm not so good at saying no in the first place if i stay she'll just end up spending everything again i trust you son i gotta lay low for a while will you do this for me and so dad went to live with my grandmother's family in switzerland as i began to get his stuff back in order again i managed his books allocated payments for his loans and found whatever way i could to stop the bank from repossessing his assets all the while managing to thwart crystal and her horrible daughters in their attempts to sell more of my dad's remaining possessions there were two things i guaranteed my dad one is that i would fix his finances and two is that neither crystal nor either of her daughters could ever have me wrapped around their fingers and they tried oh did they ever try every morning when i would go down for breakfast they'd always try to trap me in a hug once destiny pretended to be lost in my bedroom i promptly threw her out and told the maids to never let her anywhere near my room chardonnay kept calling me daddy and batting her eyelashes at me whenever i had the misfortune of having dinner with them and when i would work late nights at dad's office the two would regularly sneak in and try to convince me to buy them new shoes when they realized that their usual tactics weren't going to work on me destiny and chardonnay tried to steal pages from my checkbook and wrote out ridiculous numbers addressed to themselves it turned out they bribed one of the maids with jewelry so they could get my keys luckily my bank found it highly suspicious as i never cashed out anything above a thousand it was then that i decided to press charges for fraud i didn't expect it to stick given how good they were at manipulating men at the most i thought they'd get a slap on the wrist or a few days in jail but somehow the stars aligned that day when crystal and her daughters were brought in for questioning and biometric scans their fingerprints came up on the police database turns out crystal collings aka sharman kelly was a notorious fraudster and gold digger who skipped town quite frequently and she did it so skillfully before she could get caught her daughters who weren't bright enough to give themselves aliases were known accomplices the trio had been named as suspects on multiple scams and extortion cases in some instances they were even caught on camera stealing from their victims the sad thing was they always targeted the same kind of man widower grieving and lonely we also found out that crystal was already and still was married to someone called richard redding by virtue of her own confession and with mr reading's statement the police found out that mr reading was crystal's first ever victim she had made him believe destiny and chardonnay were his despite them being the product of crystal's extramarital indiscretions with their old driver as soon as mr reading found out about the whole thing crystal had gone and the poor old man was too embarrassed about being taken for a fool that he never spoke of it to anyone it was my dad's misfortune that he ever crossed paths with women who only sought to take advantage of him just because he managed to work hard his whole life but it was also crystal's misfortune that she spent her whole life defrauding people thinking she could get away with it forever so much so that she even passed down her grifter's ways to her two daughters crystal chardonnay and destiny were booked tried and sent to prison on four counts of fraud theft and two counts of extortion crystal was further charged with bigamy if you think crime pays and that nice guys are easy targets then think again because life will eventually catch up to you don't be like crystal and her daughters if you want nice things work for them don't just rely on other people giving you handouts and definitely under no circumstance commit fraud just so you can feel like you're living the good life when you didn't even earn it
