— A wife from the trash won’t do for my son! Leave him alone, and I will compensate you. I’ve already found someone else for him!” the mother-in-law snapped sharply.
“How much do you want? Don’t be shy. I’m ready to pay a decent sum, just to make you leave my son alone. You don’t need much, right? Just enough to treat your friends to dinner, rent a place for a couple of months, and start a new life — if that’s really your goal.…

The boss decided to teach everyone a lesson and appointed a former convict as the head chef. And when he returned — he was completely stunned.
The restaurant “White Lotus” was considered one of the most upscale establishments in the city center. Its owner, Pavel Arkadyevich, rarely appeared in person — sometimes he flew away on business, other times he went abroad for vacation. He left all management to the senior manager and the head chef.

Darina had been working as an emergency medical doctor for several years. Sometimes she thought she couldn’t handle the pressure — the workload was enormous.

The daughter-in-law accidentally left her phone in the kitchen with the camera on, and the device recorded her mother-in-law slipping powder into her tea.
The café smelled of cinnamon, caramelized milk, and something sweetly unsettling, as if the air carried the fresh tension of an autumn storm.

– Artyom, are you even listening to me? – Huh? Yes, yes, of course, Elina, – Artyom hurriedly sipped his tea, trying to look focused. – I’m asking, which color is better for the wedding: peach or ivory? Artyom thought for a moment.

After my daughter’s funeral, I accidentally overheard a conversation of my fiancé. At that moment, I realized: not a single second can be wasted.
Late autumn. The wind lashes against the shoulders, driving fallen leaves between the tombstones. The sky is low and gray, like a hospital sheet hung out to dry.

From this moment on, I’ll tell you more in detail!” Nastya murmured with interest, carefully wiping dust and cobwebs off her face. True chaos reigned in her temporary hideaway.
