A homeless woman was humiliated and kicked out by an arrogant businessman after she returned his $1 million to him. Several years later, karma reached him.
Edith was a 50-year-old homeless woman who worked at an animal shelter to support herself. She lived under a bridge at times, on the street at others, and these days in an alley where no one disturbed her while she slept, unlike the road and the bridge.
There was a time when Edith used to be a pastry chef and had a lovely family to look after her. But after a fire engulfed her home, she lost everything: her husband, daughter, and the house.
After the tragic incident, Edith remained traumatized for a long time. She stayed at her parents’ house for a while, but when they left for their heavenly abode, she was left all alone.

Edith was still young at the time and didn’t have a job, so she scraped by on the money her parents had left for her for a few days. But after a while, she became indebted and lost her parents’ home as well.
Edith’s neighbor, thankfully, was kind enough to speak with his friend and find her a job at the animal shelter where she had been working for the past ten years.
Edith didn’t have a lot of responsibilities at the shelter, which was a good thing because as she grew old, she had multiple complaints of knee pain. The woman just had to clean the shelter every day and make sure the trash bags were disposed of on time.
One day, when she went to throw the plastic bags away, she noticed the bins were already overflowing, with some packets left outside the trash cans.

She began picking the bags one by one and stuffing them into the trash can when one of them abruptly tore from the edge, spilling a dollar on the ground. Confused, she opened the bag and discovered that it contained several bundles of dollars.
Edith couldn’t believe her eyes. For a brief moment, she imagined how different her life would be if she had all those dollars. She could get her knee treated in a good hospital, build a house, and, most importantly, live a happy life.
Edith was lost in...
