A young girl married an old man to save her family, but on their wedding night something terrible happened 
The nineteen-year-old girl stood in her white dress, smiling at the guests. On the surface, everything looked like a fairy tale: a luxurious banquet hall, thousands of flowers, champagne flowing, important guests in expensive suits.
But behind this beautiful picture lay the truth — her parents had married her off to a wealthy millionaire, an elderly man well over seventy.
The family had no choice: her father had lost a large sum of money, her mother was desperately trying to keep their house and some stability.
The rich old man offered a solution — marriage. The girl knew it wasn’t love, but she didn’t resist. She knew her sacrifice would save her family, and she accepted it.
The wedding was magnificent. Guests raised their glasses, wishing the couple happiness and many years together. The old man looked pleased, holding the young bride’s hand, never taking his eyes off her. Everyone whispered: some envied her “luck,” others judged her, but no one knew that deep inside, the girl was preparing for a heavy and unpleasant wedding night.
Late in the evening, after the guests had left, the young wife entered the bedroom. The heavy silence filled the room. On the wide bed lay her husband, in a white shirt, his head slightly lifted on the pillow.
He looked tired, his eyes closed. The girl slowly approached, sat down beside him, nervously clenching her fingers. She awaited the moment she feared the most. But then something terrible happened

The seconds dragged on painfully. She touched his hand — and a chill ran down her skin. Her heart froze.
— Darling? — she whispered softly.
No answer.
Panicking, she shook his shoulder, but his body was lifeless. In the old man’s chest, no heart was beating anymore. A sudden heart attack had taken him on their very wedding night.
The servants rushed into the room, doctors were called, but it was all in vain. The nineteen-year-old girl became a widow on the same day she became a wife.
Morning brought a sensation: the sudden death of the millionaire shocked not only the family but the whole town. But the most surprising was yet to come.
According to the will, all his vast fortune passed to his wife.
In an instant, the nineteen-year-old girl transformed from the poor daughter of bankrupt parents into a wealthy heiress — houses, cars, bank accounts, jewelry, businesses.
Her life changed in a single night. Just yesterday she was preparing to spend many years with this man, enduring for her family’s sake. But fate decided otherwise: now doors opened before her she had never even dreamed of.
