She posted her story on Reddit to ask other users if she did the right thing by taking the ring. A user replied that the ring belonged to OP because of her grandmother’s promise and not because she was the biological granddaughter.
The user added that OP’s aunt and cousin were wrong for planning to take the ring. She asked OP if her grandmother would like to see her offspring fighting over a ring.
A second user supported OP but said she didn’t have to say bad things about her cousin because she was adopted since it wasn’t in her control.

OP later updated her post and shared the details from her grandmother’s will, stating the ring belonged to her youngest daughter’s eldest biological daughter. She also confronted her aunt about it, after which she got offended and left the house, telling OP and her mother to clean it themselves.
The girl believes the ring belongs to her because she is the biological granddaughter. She added that her grandmother thought “blood ties were more important.”

One user replied that OP and her grandmother were at fault for treating the other girl like a “second-class member” since she was adopted. Another user pointed out how difficult it must have been for the adopted girl to fit into the family since she was adopted at an older age. Most users believed everyone in the family was at fault.
