After years in a cold, controlling marriage, Nicole didn’t fight when Mike demanded everything in the
divorce—the house, cars, savings. She gave it all up with a quiet smile. Mike thought he’d won.
But he didn’t know the house came with one condition: Nicole’s mother, Barbara, had a legal right to live
there—forever. The moment the papers were signed, Nicole made the call: “It’s time.”
Barbara moved in that night. By morning, Mike was panicking. “Your mother’s in my house!” Nicole calmly replied, “Our house. Read the contract.”
As Barbara loudly critiqued his snacks and TV choices, Nicole sipped her coffee, finally free—watching karma settle in, one passive-aggressive comment at a time.
