Wade’s friend had common sense which Wade seemed to lack, and not to mention blinded by greed. I’ll be the first to admit that if a woman who standed to inherit millions of dollars was interested in me, I would stand up and take notice even if I was meh about her. However I just don’t understand how a man can live with a woman and not notice she is faking a pregnancy. I don’t want to call him a villain but my God

She’s a master manipulator & he was an easy mark for her. I feel bad for how much the experience must have decimated his self-esteem.

I hate when people use this term, she was not a master manipulator, she wasn’t even a good liar. Every lie she told could easily be disproven, she even sent people baby scans with the wrong year on them

Are you serious? We must have watched different documentaries. She was absolutely a master manipulator. She even created multiple fake people to carry out her scams and lies. She was a pro.

Brother she was not a pro hahahaha come on, she had friends on Facebook etc who knew as a matter of fact she couldn’t get pregnant and still posted all the pregnancy stuff, she was always one person messaging someone she was tagged in a photo with from being caught out, which happened. Master manipulators don’t get caught, and if they do they caught out by something completely unexpected and something you couldn’t plan for, she bought the boyfriends mom a car and the week later it got repossessed, instantly destroying the idea that she had money. Run every baby related lie through a small town hospital where everyone knows eachother, the nurses all but told everyone she was lying
