The mother-in-law mocked her son's wife for a long time until one day she received an eviction notice signed by her daughter-in-law. Liliya was in her office, lost in thought. Important documents related to real estate lay on her desk in front of her.
She had inherited significant property from her parents—three apartments in a prestigious area of the city and a compact shopping center on the outskirts. Her fingers automatically ran through the lines of the lease agreement. The name of the tenant, Alla Sergeevna Voronova, was prominently displayed.
Her husband's mother didn't even suspect that she was paying rent to her own daughter-in-law. Liliya had deliberately arranged the whole deal through a real estate agency to keep this secret.

"How could you choose such a woman?" she often asked her son. "She can't cook, doesn't know how to manage a household. All she does is run off to work."
Liliya silently endured, though these words hurt her deeply. For the sake of her beloved husband, she was willing to put up with any criticism from his mother, even when it became more open and malicious.
One day, while preparing dinner, Liliya overheard a phone conversation of her mother-in-law...
