新岳父要求太无理,新郎在婚礼后15分钟离婚

A groom(新郎) divorced his bride just 15 minutes after their wedding because of her father’s unreasonable pride price demands.

The man agreed to pay his new father-in-law 100,000 dollars for their wedding in Dubai. But the older man became impatient to get the cash.

Family members and friends accompanied the couple to a church to witness their wedding.The groom handed over 50,000 dollars on the spot as they agreed. He told his new father-in-law, “I will give you the rest of money after my wedding.” However, the father demanded to get the cash as soon as the wedding was over, even though the groom didn’t have money on him.

He said it would only take five minutes to walk to his car outside, and get the rest of the bride price. But his new father-in-law didn’t let him go outside. He insisted(坚决要求) the groom must pay all the rest of money right now or send a friend to get the money outside. The groom felt these demands were very unreasonable and called off the marriage immediately, a lawyer said. He told the bride’s father that he did not want his daughter as his wife and divorced her in less than 15 minutes.
