‘I’m against It!’ Older Man Stops Wedding, a Minute Later Cops Arrest Groom – Story of the Day

At a wedding, as the priest asked if anyone objected, an elderly man stormed in, opposing the marriage. Hilary met Myron at a party, instantly charmed by his compliments and attention. After a whirlwind romance, Myron proposed within five months. Despite her parents’ initial doubts, they warmed to him, unaware of his secrets. Hilary noticed Myron’s focus on material gains, like wedding gifts, and his suggestion of a prenup with a steep divorce clause raised suspicions. She discovered his prior marriage, which he dismissed as a youthful mistake.

Doubts grew when she overheard a suspicious phone call he claimed was with an ex. On the wedding day, the elderly man, Myron’s estranged father, Mr. Brown, revealed Myron as a professional gigolo who married women for money. Police arrested Myron for fraud. Mr. Brown had tried to warn him, but Myron ignored him. Hilary, heartbroken but grateful, later received a settlement from Myron’s court case. She gave the money to Mr. Brown, thanking him for saving her from ruin.
