Ten years of marriage came crashing down when Mary’s husband, Carl, handed her a mop as their anniversary gift — in front of all their friends. The room fell silent before his sister Anita’s laughter cut through the air, turning humiliation into heartbreak.

Mary stormed out, shattered yet burning with fury. In a moment of poetic justice, she smashed Carl’s beloved sports car windshield with the same mop. But karma had more in store — a heavy planter later crushed the car completely, and Anita soon learned her accounts were frozen amid fraud investigations.

When Mary discovered Carl’s secret divorce plans, she dug deeper — only to find their house and majority business shares were in her name. The tables turned overnight. Calmly, she packed Carl’s bags and kicked him out as FBI agents arrived, investigating Anita for money laundering.

With wine in hand, Mary watched her old life crumble. “Funny,” she whispered, glancing at the mop. “Karma really does clean up nicely.”
