The Lies Unravel
The helpful relative wasn’t done telling Paul the whole story. They said that Barbara had cut all ties with her family a couple of months ago and had never told them that she was expecting again. The “again” signified that this had happened before and Barbara did not want her family to catch on to her con.
Her family read the article and felt very sorry for Paul and how their girl had cheated him. The Toronto Sun soon got a call from another man who claimed that he was Barbara’s ex-boyfriend and that she had conned him too! Apparently, she told him they were having twins, but the kids were a figment of her imagination.
