My MIL Who Always Hated Me Left a Box for Me after Her Death

My tale begins with a difficult mother-in-law, Betty, who disapproved of my marriage. However, after her passing, I discovered I was wrong about her and her motives, uncovering shocking truths about her, my marriage, and my life.

On the day Betty died, I was out of town and unable to return in time. Betty, who bottled up her emotions, never liked me. Upon my return, I found a box on the porch with a note: “For Maddie. Open When Alone. Love, Betty.” This surprised me, as she never expressed love for me.

Inside, I found a letter and an envelope of cash. In the letter, Betty apologized for her coldness, revealing she admired me and regretted not telling me that her son, my husband, was cheating on me. The money was for my future and freedom. Betty’s words gave me the strength to confront my husband, file for divorce, and pursue my dream of opening a bakery, “Betty’s Blessing.”
