'I'm against lt!' Older Man Stops Wedding, a Minute Later Cops Arrest Groom - Story of the Day

While standing in the church with the man she loved the most, a young woman looked at the priest when he asked if anyone had a problem with the marriage. Suddenly, an elderly man barged into the church, telling the priest he was against the wedding.

"You're gorgeous!" Myron told Hilary minutes after meeting her at a party for the first time.

Hilary felt butterflies in her tummy when she saw him look at her from head to toe. It had been ages since a man last complimented her, and she couldn't recall what it felt like when a man held her hand while looking into her eyes. Her last relationship was nothing short of miserable because of her ex's anger issues.

However, meeting Myron at her friend's party gave her a ray of hope. It made her feel she could try her luck again and date this man who looked at her like she was the most beautiful girl in the room.

Myron stayed by her side the entire evening, cracking jokes while telling her everything about him. He wanted to impress her during their first meeting because he thought she was the perfect girl for him.

The following day, Myron and Hilary met in a park, discussing their interests, goals, and life problems while walking together. Their discussion only made them grow closer, compelling Myron to ask her for a date the next day.

"Hilary, I think you are the girl I have been looking for all this time," Myron said. "Will you be my girlfriend?"

"What?" Hilary's hands went to her face, covering everything except her glistening eyes and forehead. She couldn't believe the man she had met two days ago wanted to start a relationship with her.

"Will you be my girlfriend?" Myron repeated his question, looking into Hilary's eyes.

"Yes!" she exclaimed and wrapped her arms around him. "I'll be your girlfriend, Myron."

Hilary was delighted to start a relationship with him because her last relationship had left her heartbroken. She believed Myron's love would help her heal, unaware he was keeping secrets from her.

However, when Hilary told her parents about it, a grain of doubt crept into their minds.

Soon, Hilary introduced him to her parents, and he took no time to win their hearts. He told them he had lost his parents at a young age and missed them a lot.

"Don't worry," Hilary's mother said. "We are your parents now, okay? You can share everything with us. We're always here to support you!"

Hilary felt relieved when her parents accepted her boyfriend. Their approval made her believe she had made the right choice by dating him and thought she was ready to spend the rest of her life with him.

The couple dated for five months before Myron made his next move. He took Hilary to an expensive restaurant on a date and knelt while everyone looked at him.

"Hilary, I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I want to share all my happiness and sorrows with you," Myron said. "Will you marry me?"

While others in the restaurant gasped, Hilary couldn't believe Myron had proposed to her in front of so many people. She felt her heart skip a beat when she saw him on his knees, looking straight into her eyes, waiting for an answer.

"Yes!" Hilary said as she held his hands and pulled him up, wrapping her arms around him while tears trickled down her cheeks. She couldn't believe the man she loved the most wanted to spend the rest of his life with her.

Since Hilary was head over heels in love with Myron, she didn't feel that everything was happening too quickly. A man she had only known for five months suddenly wanted to be her life partner, but she couldn't sense that the timing of his proposal was too odd.

However, when Hilary told her parents about it, a grain of doubt crept into their minds. They thought it was strange of Myron to propose to her too soon, but their suspicions vanished when they talked to him and saw how much he admired their daughter. Soon, the couple began preparing for their wedding, unaware that fate wouldn't allow them to tie the knot.

During the preparations, Hilary noticed many things about her soon-to-be husband that she had never seen before. During one of the discussions, she noticed Myron was interested in the material side of things.

"I'm so excited about all the stuff people will bring us!" he said, his eyes sparkling with greed.

"There's going to be a lot of expensive gifts. I can't wait!"

Although Hilary did not say anything to him then, she thought it was strange of him to think about the gifts. She wanted him to talk about their relationship, future, and how they would support each other after marriage, but it seemed like Myron was interested in other things.

"I guess he's just acting immature," Hilary thought, unaware of Myron's plans.

A few days before the wedding, Myron came to Hilary's house and told her something she wasn't expecting. "I think we should have a prenuptial agreement. What do you suggest?"

"Yes, I think that's a smart decision," Hilary said after a moment's thought. "We should be prepared for the worst."

"Exactly!" Myron exclaimed. "I think we should add a clause that states that if you initiate a divorce, you would have to pay up a fortune!" he chuckled coldly.

She thought it was strange of him to bring up a prenup, and she couldn't be entirely sure if he was joking about it.

Later that day, Hilary called her lawyer and asked about the clause. She thought Myron was acting selfish, but the lawyer assured her this clause was quite common.

"Don't worry, Hilary," the lawyer said. "The same rule would apply to Myron if he initiates divorce."

"He would pay me the same amount?" Hilary asked.

"Yes," the lawyer replied.

"You don't have to
