A young student married a 79-year-old woman: Until they learned the real reason for this strange wedding, everyone was shocked.
When the 79-year-old grandmother and the 22-year-old student arrived at the registrar office arm in arm, the room was completely silent. The bride’s white dress was neatly ironed, she wore a veil over her head, and her smile was restrained and tinged with guilt. The groom, dressed in a dark suit, seemed calm but determined.
Already there were murmurs behind them. Friends, family, and bystanders who had come for their own ceremonies couldn’t contain their laughter.
“Is this a joke?”
— “Is his marriage motivated by the apartment?”
– “He probably has a mental illness.”
The groom’s mother tried desperately to persuade her son to change his mind:
“Son, think again. She’s almost 80 years old! This isn’t normal!
But the young man refused to back down. His respect for the bride was strange, almost disagreeable.
The wedding took place. without any music. without a formal event. Only the dreary words of the registrar, the occasional shout from a bystander, and the flashes from the cameras of reporters who had previously heard of this “shocking love.”
A day, two, and a week passed. The bride ceased her public appearances. The bridegroom didn’t. No one knew where they lived. But following a horrifying discovery, it was clear why the young man had wed the old woman… 
“Anna K. died, recently married to a young student,” was the little mention that appeared in the local newspaper a month later. The cause of death was listed as “heart attack in sleep.” The student did not attend the funeral.
But then something horrifying happened.
A instructor at the law school where the young groom was enrolled unintentionally said this:
He was preparing a study on the subject of “How to avoid a will and inherit property without being a relative.” Every inheritance option, including unusual legal gaps, piqued his interest.
Reporters started looking into it. It became out that a large plot of land in the center of the city, which various developers had been trying to buy for years, was owned exclusively by Anna K. But she refused to sell every time.
After her death, all of the plot’s rights suddenly passed to the young widower in accordance with a carefully drafted marriage contract.
A month later, the land sold for 47 million. The widower disappeared.
