After Husband Dies, Widow Inherits Cheap Pendant and Lady She Never Met Inherits His Property – Story of the Day

When Agatha’s husband, Richard, passed away, his will left everything to Sue Raymond—a woman Agatha had never met. Agatha, inheriting only an old pendant, was bewildered.

Richard and Agatha had built a life on their Milwaukee farm, content with each other and their work. When Richard died suddenly, Agatha was called to a will reading, where she met Sue, who revealed herself to be Richard’s daughter from a relationship before Agatha. Sue explained that her mother had hidden the pregnancy from Richard, and only recently had she found him. Agatha was shocked that Richard kept Sue a secret but chose to honor his wishes, allowing Sue to inherit their property.

While packing, Agatha accidentally broke open the pendant, discovering it was actually a locket hiding a note: “Agatha, look in the study under the table.” There, she found a key and a letter from Richard explaining that he’d left her their mutual savings in a hidden safe. Knowing Sue’s financial struggles, he’d willed her everything else but wanted to ensure Agatha’s security.

Moved, Agatha collected the funds and gold Richard had stashed, appreciating his thoughtfulness. She relocated to her condo in Florida, finding peace as she started anew.

Later, Sue shared photos of her daughters enjoying the farm, and Agatha smiled, comforted by the legacy Richard left for both of them. She knew he had made the right choice, leaving love and security for all he cared about.
