Man Leaves Children and Wife for Mistress – Oldest Kid Tells Dad's Boss What He Did

• A woman sought revenge for her heartbroken mother by e-mailing her father's boss about his infidelity.
• Her father took them through an emotional rollercoaster for years until he finally left them for good.
• The woman's e-mail unleashed hell on her dad, who lost his job and was disgraced by his colleagues, family, and friends.

Growing up, a woman lived a seemingly normal life with her family. Her parents loved one another dearly and were close to both their children.

When the woman was a senior in college, her dad was tasked to open their company's first plant in China. It was a fully-paid job with complimentary business-class airfare, a penthouse, and more perks.

He did well at the job and was often recognized for efficiently managing the project. He began mingling with company superiors, a great way to build a reputation and improve his financial situation before retirement.

Finally, his hard work was paying off. His wife was pleased because she and her husband could enjoy an "empty nest" together in China, especially with their children attending college.

However, things started going south less than a year after his move to China. His children assumed that the power went to his head or that he was overwhelmed with his new life.

A Quick Family Reunion

During Christmas time, the woman's dad came home. It was supposed to be a holiday reunion for all four of them, especially after not seeing one another for months.

To the children's surprise, their dad packed his bags and left. He said he no longer wanted to be married and had met someone in China. "To say the rug had been pulled out from under our feet was an understatement. It was like everything we had ever known had imploded," the woman admitted.

Their dad's sudden betrayal left them crippled. The woman had to work two jobs to ensure her mom always had money because, at any time, their dad could cut them off.

The family went to therapy, where they realized they had been verbally, emotionally, and financially abused by their dad for years. They have yet to recover from it and likely never will.

The Dad Had a Suspicious Change of Heart

Months later, their dad had a change of heart. He contacted his family and started making amends. Initially, his daughter was suspicious, however, she held back her emotions because of how happy her mother was and went with the flow.

He came home for two weeks and invited their mom to a "third honeymoon" to China. They left emergency numbers along with the e-mail of their dad's immediate supervisor, Stan, in case the kids needed anything.

After they left for China, things seemed okay. Two weeks later, during their weekly Skype session, their mom was on the screen, alone.

Her eyes were swollen, and her face was red. Her daughter immediately asked what happened, going into full protective mode.

It was then that her mom explained she had been used. After meeting the company higher-ups in a series of meetings, their dad packed his bags and said he was leaving for two weeks with his girlfriend.

"I want you gone by the time I get back," the man told his wife. The woman was stunned. "How?" she asked him. The man shrugged. "I don't care how," he said coldly before leaving the room.

The Aftermath of His Betrayal

Upon hearing how her mom had been treated, the woman wrote a furious letter to her dad's immediate supervisor, Stan. The family didn't have money to pay for her ticket back home, and with their dad cutting all financial support, they had nowhere else to turn.

In the e-mail, she explained who she was and what her mother had gone through. She asked if he could pay for her mom's ticket back home and promised she'd repay every penny.

Stan never returned her e-mail. However, just a day later, her mom was back home. Stan had gotten a hold of her just an hour after the e-mail was sent, verified the information, and sent her home on the first flight.

When their mom was safely back with her kids, they realized the marriage was over for good. They moved on and relocated to a new state for a fresh start. Years later, their mom found a new husband who was both loving and supportive. She enjoyed a job and a husband who treated her well.

As for the father, the e-mail sent him through legal and financial headaches. He lost his job, and when the higher-ups discovered his mistress was his subordinate, she was fired, too. The case also ignited a full-on investigation of his company dealings, which showed him embezzling money from the company. Because of this, he was demoted and sent home.

The woman's father was forced to retire early or risk being fired. He tried to sue the company for unlawful termination, but the evidence against him was too strong. The man was alienated by his colleagues, friends, and family. He still believes he is an innocent victim, but in the eyes of his kids, he deserves what he got.

"Do I feel guilty about helping to bring down my father? I'll let Montresor's motto be my answer; 'Nemo me impune lacessit.'" the woman said.

What would you have done if you were in the daughter's shoes? Was what she did fitting?

In a similar story, a man became rich and left his son and wife in poverty for a new family. His son later visited him on his deathbed after plotting his revenge.
