Dumped, Afraid But Alive And Grateful (Cont'd)

Hallo,
Still in the spirit of independence, I salute you all and wish you a Happy 55th Independence . I'm proudly Nigerian ........"We Are Nigeria " (saying that with a big smile on my pretty face).
I hope you enjoyed reading our last story and to "you" our amazing readers who have been patiently awaiting the conclusion of our last post,here it is.......
"Of course like every other father who finds himself in this situation, the bride's father was demoralised and speechless,he had no response to the woman at the other end of the line,all he could do was take a seat and stare into the nothingness that appeared in front of him and he didn't even realise he had been numb until his wife asked what the matter was.........hmmm (I sigh).The lady's mother as you can expect was dramatic and wailing in no time and right there and then,the lady in question walked in. Her father tried to comport himself,sit her down and relay the phone call to her but the mother made it almost impossible has she was screaming it all out at the top of her voice. The lady could not understand what was going on or was it that she didn't want to believe it? She gave her parents the little explanation she could come up with which was that everything they had been told via the phone call was a terrible lie.
The lady took the next available flight to Port-Harcourt to be sure that the call was not some kind of mistake has the groom had already stopped taking her calls at the time. When she got to PH,she confronted the man's parents about the call and demanded for an explanation. She got more than just a shock of her life when her supposed mother in-law told her to her face that whatever she heard was the truth and that their son should confirm that they were not telling lies. At this point,he walked into the living room where they were all seated and he said directly to the lady "You are a fool. How could you have thought that I really wanted to marry you? Do you really think I love you?". He affirmed that what his mother told her father over the phone was what he had told his parents since he introduced her to them and that she meant nothing more than that (his gate pass to Canada) to him.
This lady in tears began to explain to the only person who was willing to listen (his father) that she had no business arrangements with their son and that in sincerity, she told him about relocating to Canada after their wedding as an option because she has an uncle in Canada (a Canadian citizen) who sends his siblings an invitation to visit him in Canada usually as his wedding gift to the newly weds and as a way to welcome the spouse into their family. 
Anyway, she returned to Lagos and moved on with her life but do you really think she will let herself love or trust again? How can a man or any human at that be this mean and callous? 
Her father had to send messages to invited guest informing them that the wedding had been postponed until further notice and had to go through the humiliation of going to the venue on the supposed wedding day to apologise to the people that still came because they did not get the information. 
What do you think this young man (the user) deserves?
