Parents aren’t always on your side.
I know we all want to believe that our parents love us and will do anything for us, but that isn’t always the case. A family does not always have to be blood-related. Some people are simply not cut out to be parents. Others will always prioritise their biological children and treat their stepchildren as second-class citizens. It is, unfortunately, more common than you might think. As a result, the stepchildren are always left wanting and wondering if they made a mistake when it was never their fault to begin with. And when you add entitlement to that, it just gets worse.
That is the type of parent we will be focusing on today. People always say that money changes people, but I believe that it simply reveals a person’s true nature rather than changing them. After all, when it comes to money, many people will go to any lengths. That includes evicting your stepson from their home in order to obtain a larger divorce settlement. Yes, it’s exactly as bad as it sounds. It’s not just about entitlement, as this is just horrible behaviour. She wishes to take away the house in which they and their children have lived for many years. She is essentially attempting to destroy their future.

I would say the wicked part is well-deserved.
This is going to be a long one so strap in.
Things were always bad for her husband when it came to his parents.
However, he has become a hardworking and kind man despite this.

But that is when things got worse for everyone in the family.
The house was supposed to be theirs.
However, the wicked stepmother is now claiming that they’re just renters.
They don’t know what to do anymore.

And OP is deciding on whether they should get some outside help.
This woman’s ruthlessness astounds me. I mean, she did spend a long time with OP’s husband, so does she not have any maternal feelings for him? I’m not saying she should sacrifice herself or refuse any divorce settlement, but doing this to them unfairly is just abhorrent. And it appears that she has been planning this for a long time, as he already signed the papers under false pretences. I can only hope they get some legal help and get out of this mess because no one deserves this.
People in the comments had a few questions.
Which were promptly answered and things don’t look good.

The entitled woman knew what she was doing.
They definitely need a lawyer or they might get screwed over.
We can only hope that it works out.
It will take some work but I am sure they can fix this situation.
