After a swift six-month courtship, Liz married Jake, believing in their deep connection. However, the day after their wedding, Jake’s urgent request to start a family seemed odd to Liz. Despite her reservations, she agreed, unaware of his ulterior motive.
Liz discovered Jake’s true intentions when she saw a message on his laptop from his ex, Claire: “Remember our agreement, Jake. You need to impregnate her within a year or lose your inheritance.” Jake’s reply confirmed the scheme: he planned to have a child with Liz to secure a significant inheritance, then divorce her for Claire, who was infertile.
Shocked, Liz gathered evidence discreetly by copying emails and recording phone conversations. Consulting a lawyer, she prepared for a confrontation.
At a family gathering, Liz revealed Jake’s deception with damning evidence on a projector. His family disapproved, and Claire, upon learning the truth, left him. Liz ended the evening by revealing she had been on birth control, thwarting Jake’s plan entirely.
