"My sil asked me for $30,000 for a yacht trip. I gave her $60. My mil slapped me, so I slapped her back twice to the floor and left. The next day, enforcers kicked them out of the house in pure panic!!
The sharp clicking of stilettos against the hardwood stairs echoed through my mansion's living room. I paused scrubbing the pristine leather sectional. Nicole, my husband’s twenty-five-year-old sister, descended in a scarlet dress, bringing an overwhelming stench of synthetic jasmine. She carelessly tossed her counterfeit designer bag onto my custom oak coffee table and snapped her manicured fingers at me.
“Lauren, wire me thirty thousand dollars by noon,” she demanded with practiced arrogance. “I’m organizing a last-minute trip to Miami with my influencer friends.”
I slowly looked up. “Thirty thousand?”
She scoffed, rolling her eyes. “My friends are dating pro athletes and tech founders. If I show up in South Beach on a budget airline and sleep in a cheap motel, I’ll be the laughingstock of Instagram. I need to charter a private yacht to show my status, then book the VIP section at LIV nightclub to buy vintage champagne. You literally have money to burn. Don’t be cheap.”
A dry, scraping laugh clawed its way up my throat. This woman adamantly refused to work, spending her days lounging by my infinity pool, expecting me to serve her gourmet meals after my twelve-hour corporate shifts. Now, she had the audacity to demand thirty grand to fake a billionaire lifestyle on the internet.
“The money I earn is the direct result of my blood, sweat, and tears,” I said, my voice dropping to a dangerously calm register. “I will wire you exactly sixty dollars. Consider it your fair share for a casual dinner. If you want a luxury yacht, go ask your brother.”
Nicole’s heavily contoured face twisted into a mask of venomous rage. “Oh, so you look down on me because you have money?!” she shrieked, balling her hands into fists.
Tilting her head toward the vaulted ceiling, she screamed hysterically. “Mom! Mom, come down here right now! Look at your precious daughter-in-law! She is treating our family like literal garbage!”
Above us, hurried, heavy footsteps pounded against the upper floorboards. My mother-in-law was coming. The air grew instantly suffocating, heavy with the promise of war. What would happen when she finally reached the bottom of those stairs?
