Daughter Told Janitor Mom Not to Come Her Wedding Billionaire Son-in Low Respect Mom Emotional Story

Yes, mom. I need to talk to you about Saturday. Of course. Is it the fitting? I can come earlier. No, the dress is fine. I think it would be better if you didn’t come to the wedding. Why, Olivia? Why don’t you want me at your wedding? Ethan’s family is wealthy. We’re poor. You clean offices and sew for a living.

 I’m ashamed to tell them you’re my mother. You have perfect timing. One more pearl and your dress is finished. [laughter] Olivia, are you there? >> Olivia. Yes, Mom. I need to talk to you about Saturday. Of course. Is it the fitting? I can come earlier. No, the dress is fine. I think it would be better if you didn’t come to the wedding.

Did something happen? It’s complicated. Then explain it to me. Ethan’s family, the people who will be there. I’ve told them things about us. What things? That dad had a business. That you retired years ago. I just wanted to fit in. And if I come, they’ll find out you’re a seamstress’s daughter. Please don’t say it like that.

How would you like me to say it? >> Could you send the dress with someone? We can celebrate together afterwards. Just us. I see. Mom. Tell me you’ve had breakfast. I’ve had tea. A cup of tea isn’t breakfast, Grace. I brought you a croissant. You even bought my favorite ones. Then sit down and enjoy one. Who sent you that letter, Grace? Is something wrong? It’s from my landlord.

He’s giving me notice to leave the shop. Why do you have to leave? What has happened? He sold the building and I have 6 weeks to move everything out. Have you found another place for the business? I haven’t found anywhere yet. I’ll look for somewhere smaller and work from home until then. >> Your flat is already full of sewing.

Where would you put everything? I don’t know, Margaret. I’m trying to solve one problem at a time. There’s a small shop available near the station. It has two workrooms and a front window. Do you think I could afford the rent? You wouldn’t have to pay it alone. We could share the shop and split the bills.

 Are you serious about doing this with me? Yes, I’m serious. We could share the work and close at 5. >> I can’t remember the last time I had an evening to myself. >> Then let’s ask about the shop and arrange a time to see it. >> I’d like that. Thank you for helping me, Margaret. >> It’s lovely to see you, darling. Mom, you saw me two weeks ago.

>> That doesn’t mean I haven’t missed you. >> I’ve brought some ideas for my wedding dress. Will you look at them? >> Of course, darling. Show me which details you love most. I love these lace sleeves and the little pearls around the neckline. You’ve chosen all the difficult details. This will keep me busy.

 [laughter] >> Do you think you can make it like this, Mom? Yes, darling. Let’s take your measurements so I can get started. Stand straight for me, darling, and relax your shoulders. You should buy yourself something lovely to wear to the wedding, too. I already have. I bought a blue dress especially for your wedding. Will you show it to me? What do you think? Is the color right for me? It’s beautiful, Mom.

 That shade of blue really suits you. [gasps] >> I think your dad would have liked this dress, too. >> Yeah. >> Are you still cleaning offices after working at the shop all day? >> Yes, but only three evenings a week. Come inside, Ryan. You look cold. You’ve hardly touched your tea. Is something worrying you? >> The business is in trouble, Mom.

 I need to ask you for help. >> How much money do you need? >> Could you lend me £3,000? A customer hasn’t paid, and I have wages due. >> The van needs repairs, too. I can’t keep working without it. >> Is the business really all right, or is there more you haven’t told me? >> I can get through this once the customer pays me.

>> Margaret and I are hoping to share a shop. I need my savings for the deposit. When could you pay me back? I need a clear answer. >> I’ll repay you within 4 weeks before you need to pay the shop deposit. >> This is the last of my savings, Ryan. Some of it was for my seaside holiday. >> I’m sorry, Mom.

 I know how hard you worked for it. >> I’ll lend you the money, but this must be the last time. I need it back. >> Thank you, Mom. I’ll repay every penny. >> I’m trusting you, Ryan. Please don’t let me down. >> I promise I’ll pay you back on time. Mom. >> Mom, this is Ethan. I wanted you to meet him before the wedding. >> It’s lovely to meet you, Grace.

 Olivia has told me so much. >> You, too, Ethan. Come in and let’s have a look. Olivia tells me you cook. What is your specialtity? >> I make one decent pasta dish. She’s being very generous. >> It’s our wedding coordinator. I should answer this. Hello. We’re at the dress fitting now. >> Wonderful.

 Who is there with you? >> This is Grace. She’s the woman making my dress. >> She’s also Olivia’s mother. >> Yes, mom is making it. I’ll call you after the fitting. Thank you. >> Your dress is ready to try on, darling. The fitting room is free. >> Is this Olivia’s father in the photograph? >> Yes, that’s Daniel. Olivia was 10 when we took that.

>> Olivia told me he ran a business. What kind of business was it? >> Daniel was a bus mechanic. He never owned a business. >> I’m sorry. I must have misunderstood what she told me. >> He was very good at his work. We were proud of him. The fit is right. I’ll finish the sleeves this week. >> Thank you, Mom. I’ll call you tomorrow.

>> It was lovely meeting you, Grace. Hello, darling. [music] Are you nearly here? >> I’m sorry, Mom. Ethan’s parents invited us out, so I can’t come for dinner. >> All right, darling. Please let me know earlier next time. I will, Mom. I’m sorry. >> Mom, I’m sorry. I’m stuck sorting out a problem with the van. I can’t come.

>> All right, Ryan. We’ll speak another day. >> I brought apple crumble. Have you got room for one more? Neither of them could come. >> Then let’s eat together while it’s still warm. I would like that. Please sit down. >> The agent let me borrow the key. Shall we view the shop together tomorrow? >> Margaret, I need to tell you something.

I lent Ryan £3,000. He needed it for his business. Was that your deposit money? >> Yes, it was. >> He promised to repay me before the deposit is due. And if he cannot, what happens to your plans? I find it hard to watch my children struggle. I know, but helping them should not mean giving up everything you need. Thank you for staying.

 I didn’t want to eat alone. >> I’m glad I came. Now, pass me the potatoes. >> Mom, have you got a minute? We need to talk. >> Is this about the money, Ryan? >> Yes, it is. The customer still hasn’t paid me. I’m closing the business. >> What about the £3,000 I lent you? >> It went on wages and the van. I can’t pay you back.

>> My deposit for the new shop is due tomorrow. >> Could you ask the agent for a little more time? >> I already did. Tomorrow is the deadline, and I have no savings left. >> I’ll find another way, Mom. I promise I’ll get your money back. I believed you when you promised me last time. >> I’m sorry.

 I thought I could put everything right. >> I need you to repay me, Ryan. I cannot lend you anymore. >> What will you do when you have to leave here? >> I don’t know yet. I thought I had somewhere to go. >> Can I at least help you pack these things? >> Put the cotton in here underneath the lace. Leave the machine out. I still have to finish your sister’s dress.

>> All right, Mom. >> Your dress is nearly finished, darling. What time should I arrive at the wedding? >> Mom, that’s what I need to talk about. >> Mom, I think it would be better if you didn’t come to the wedding. >> Why don’t you want me there, Olivia? I told Ethan’s family that dad owned a business and that you had retired.

 Why would you tell them that? >> They’re wealthy, Mom. I wanted them to think I came from the same kind of family. Does Ethan know you’re asking me to stay away? >> No, Mom. I haven’t told him about this. Are you asking me to miss your wedding so you won’t have to tell the truth? >> Yes, Mom. I’m sorry.

 I don’t know how to undo it. >> You could begin by telling them who I am. >> Will you still bring my dress tomorrow? I need it for the final fitting. Your dress will be ready tomorrow. You’ll need to collect it yourself. >> All right, Mom. I’ll come in the morning. Good night, Olivia. I’ll see you tomorrow. [music] [music] Before the morning [music] found the sky, I tied your shoes and kissed goodbye.

Warm [music] toast waiting by the door. Then I went out to give you more. [music] I stitched through every afternoon. Worked beneath the office [singing] moon. Empty [music] halls and tired hands. Building dreams you never planned. I [music] never told you what it cost. Sleep, the years, the things I lost. I only [music] wanted you to fly.

 So I kept the harder truth inside. [singing] I was always there [music] in every prayer. In every night I came [music] home. Still keeping all your hopes alive. [music] I never praise. I only wanted [music] the life I held you. Don’t be ashamed [music] of what you know. Now the house is quiet again. And I wonder where those children went.

I never asked you to repay. The love I gave along the [singing] way. But hearing [music] you hide who I am hurts more than tired hands [music] ever can. was always there in every [music] thread, in every prayer. And even when this heart in pain, a mother’s love is not just [music] foose. [music] [bell] >> I’ve come for my dress.

 Why is everything packed? The building has been sold. Your mom has to leave. Is this the dress mom made for my wedding? Yes. She wanted to look lovely when she walked in with you. I asked her not to come. I told her last night. Olivia, come and sit with me. Wasn’t she going to share a new shop with you? That was our plan.

 We would split the bills and close at 5. Why isn’t she moving there? She lent Ryan her deposit money. His business has closed and he cannot repay her. Couldn’t she use some of her other savings? There aren’t any, Olivia. That money was her chance to work fewer hours. What about the money dad left? Didn’t that pay for my university? His insurance paid off the mortgage.

 There was no university fund. Then how did mom pay for everything? >> She sewed here all day and cleaned offices at night. That paid for your education. Why didn’t she ever tell me what it cost her? She wanted you to concentrate on studying without worrying about how she would manage. I was ashamed to tell Ethan’s family what she does.

 There is nothing shameful about the work that raised you. >> Where is mom? I need to speak to her. She’s upstairs in the flat. She came down early to finish your dress. Thank you for telling me. I’ll go to her now. Let her speak, Olivia. [bell] Mom, Margaret told me everything about the shop, Ryan, University. I didn’t know. I’m so sorry.

 I’m glad you know, but none of that should be the reason you think I deserve to be at your wedding. You’re right. What I did was wrong before I knew any of it. I was ashamed and I put that shame on you. I love you, but I’m hurt, Olivia. And I need you to understand that love doesn’t erase what happened.

 You need to tell Ethan the truth about dad, the shop, everything. I will today. No more stories. If you decide not to come to the wedding, I’ll understand. Whether I come will be my decision, Olivia, not yours. I’m going to Ethan now. I’m going to tell him everything. Good. Be honest with him. Ethan, I need to tell you something before we get married.

And I need to tell you all of it. My dad didn’t own a business. He was a bus mechanic. Mom still works as a seamstress. She never retired. I made our family sound wealthy because I was embarrassed. And yesterday I asked mom not to come to the wedding. >> Your family being ordinary would never have bothered me.

 But you decided I couldn’t be trusted with the truth. >> I know. I was afraid you’d see me differently, so I changed the truth instead of trusting you. >> I love you, Olivia. But loving you doesn’t make the lying disappear. We’ll have to rebuild that trust. >> I want mom at the wedding, but after what I did, whether she comes has to be her choice.

>> Then let it be her choice and tell her the truth from now on. I sold some spare tools. There’s £400 here. I know it isn’t enough, but it’s a start. Thank you for bringing it. But Ryan, there can’t be any more loans. Not from me. There won’t be. I’ve applied for maintenance work. If I get it, I’ll start paying you back every month.

>> That’s what I need to see now, Ryan. Not promises, steady choices. >> I can help with the move, too. boxes, shelves, the heavy things. You shouldn’t have to do all of this alone. >> All right. Come Saturday morning, we’ll start with the boxes. >> I’ll be here. >> All right, Daniel. I’m here. Mom, you came.

Thank you. I was wrong to shut you out. If you still can, will you walk in with me? >> Yes, I will. We’ll walk in together. And afterward, we’ll keep mending the rest. Grace, I’m very glad you’re here. You look lovely, Mom. Will you come with me now? >> Yes, darling. I’m ready. >> I’m ready now. >> So am I. >> Another payment.

 The maintenance job’s going well. I’ll keep paying you back every month. >> Good. Keep doing exactly that. I can come by Thursday after work, too, if you’re free. Thursday’s fine, but after 5:00, I’m finished for the day. 5 means 5. >> It suits you here, Mom. >> It does, and I’m learning not to live at the sewing machine. 5:00. We said we’d actually leave at 5.

 And for once, I intend to. [laughter] The work will still be here tomorrow. I still can’t believe you finally booked Whitby. Neither can I. I’ll take your case to the hotel when you’re ready. Thank you, love. I think I’ll sit here for a little while first. >> Do you want me to stay with you for a bit? >> No, darling. Go on.

 I think I’d like a little time to myself. Call me tonight. I will. Now go before you start looking after me again.
