For years, I had been managing our company's international affairs. When I learned that Troy was planning to propose, I immediately booked a flight home.
That evening, my son, Troy Malone, shared several pictures of our dinner together on Facebook.
The accompanying text said, "You've always been there for me. Thank you, most cherished woman in my world."
Surprisingly, my future daughter-in-law, Siena Hunt, misinterpreted this and thought I was Troy's secret lover. On the day of the engagement celebration, Siena and her friends cornered me at a hair salon.
"You... You brazen hussy. How could you entice Troy?"
"I'll make sure you never tempt another man again. Girls, let's sew her up down there. I'll take responsibility if anything goes wrong."
Siena brutally attacked me at the salon before dragging me to the engagement party.
"Now you'll see who Troy truly cares for."
Siena pressed her foot against my face, humiliating me thoroughly, while the guests around us erupted in laughter.
As Siena was reveling in her victory and continuing to assault me, Troy finally arrived.
I gazed at Troy, feeling on the brink of death.
"This engagement party is over!"

Mother-in-Law Mistaken for Mistress, A Proposal Night Nightmare

Based on what I know about Troy's character, he would never interact with Siena again for the rest of his life.


With her glamorous facade stripped away, all that remained was squalor.


"Mom, I apologize. I never imagined a simple Facebook photo could inflict such damage on you," Troy said, his eyes reddened with remorse as he gazed at the marks on my face.


If it weren't for my intervention, I shudder to think what Troy might have done to Siena's family in retaliation.


Thankfully, this ordeal was drawing to a close.


I found myself pondering, "Had that incident not occurred, what might have transpired if Siena had married into our family?"


"Troy, I've never meddled in your romantic affairs or judged anyone. Your future wife's appearance or wealth doesn't concern me. I only care about her character and if she's deserving of the Malone name. Also, if you ever stray or lead a dissolute lifestyle, I'll personally ensure you regret it!"
