My MIL and Her Friends Ate Our $1000 Wedding Cake the Night before Our Wedding, So I Taught Her a Lesson…

I was heartbroken and furious when I discovered that my mother-in-law, Linda, and her friends had devoured my $1,000 wedding cake. I couldn’t believe they’d intentionally ruin such a special part of my day, leaving nothing but crumbs behind. But instead of breaking down, I was determined to teach them a lesson they wouldn’t forget.

“There’s no way I’m paying for that! It was way too expensive for something that tasted horrible—just like your taste in everything,” Linda sneered, barely glancing at me.

I stood there in the doorway, frozen in disbelief, the grocery bags slipping from my hands. Tears welled up in my eyes as I took in the scene: my beautiful wedding cake, the one I had saved for months to afford, was reduced to crumbs, with a half-eaten slice sitting on the table. Linda and her friends lounged on the couch, clearly pleased with themselves.

“Linda, how could you?” I choked out, my voice trembling as I approached the empty cake box. “That cake was for my wedding! It cost a thousand dollars! How am I supposed to replace it now?”

Linda barely looked at me, rolling her eyes. “Oh, come on, Emily. It’s just a cake, and honestly, it wasn’t even that good,” she said, brushing off my distress.

“But it was important to me!” I snapped, tears streaming down my face. “You had no right to touch it!”

“Get over it, Emily,” she replied dismissively, waving her hand. “You’re always so dramatic. It’s just a cake, and it’s not like you have good taste in anything anyway.”

Linda and her friends exchanged amused glances before getting up to leave. “We’re going now, but don’t expect me to pay for that cake,” she said smugly, walking out as they laughed, leaving crumbs and chaos behind.
