As she was putting her make-up on, Mary’s heart filled with joy. She was looking forward to the party her husband of ten years was throwing for their wedding anniversary.
His parties were always lavish. He paid attention to details and always made sure everything he did was flawless, so there was no reason for this party not to be as extraordinary as every other one John had ever organized.Among those who were invited were their family, friends, and their business partners, and of course, John’s sister Lauren, the only person Mary never got along with.
Lauren was needy, greedy, and demanding. She loved to interfere with everyone’s business and often gave suggestions and made remarks that drove Mary crazy, but she never said anything just because she was John’s sister.Lauren was needy, greedy, and demanding.

He raised a toast and handed his wife a box wrapped in a huge red bow.
Mary was eager to open it, but to her surprise, there was a rag inside. She was left in shock and barely said, “What’s this Jon, is this a joke?”As everyone was looking at Mary and her reaction, Lauren started laughing uncontrollably, commenting out loud that her brother finally came to his senses and brought the right gift for his stay-at-home wife. She also mentioned that she received an expensive bracelet from John for her birthday, the one she was proudly wearing at that moment.

Lauren on the other hand, kept asking everyone if they liked what her brother bought Mary and wouldn’t let go on the subject.
Moments later, Lauren, who was still laughing, slipped on the rug and fell on the ground, breaking her bracelet and ripping her dress.
Some of the guests started laughing, and Lauren decided to leave the party. As she was getting to leave, the door bell rang. Mary’s real present arrived. It was a diamond bracelet.
Karma really work in mysterious ways.
