So, she joined the long line at the bus stop. When the bus arrived, she got on and sat down next to an old lady. After some time she noticed that the old lady’s handbag was open. Inside the bag she saw a roll of notes exactly like the ones her husband had given her. She quickly looked into her own bag – the notes had gone. Mrs. Smith was sure that the old lady had stolen them. She didn’t want to call the police because she disliked making a scene. So she decided to take back the money from the old lady’s handbag.
