My mother-in-law gave me an old antique sewing machine for my birthday.
My husband laughed, but I liked it. And 5 years later, he left me. For a young mistress. My husband, a lawyer, took away our car and flat.
When my mother-in-law heard about it, she called me and invited me over. And then she confided in me that there were real diamonds inside the machine.
They were left by her grandmother. She apologized for her son and invited me to live with her.
And you won’t believe it: we moved to France, bought a house there with the money from the diamonds. She’s a marvelous woman.
