Vera took the $100 and left, crying all the way to the shelter.
When her boss asked her what happened, she told him how Mr. Carter mistreated her and insulted her, but her boss told her not to worry because she was a generous woman who deserved all the praise in the world. In fact, realizing how honest she was, he offered her a full time job at the shelter and helped her rent a small apartment.
Vera was very grateful. It was years that someone had done something so generous for her.
As a way of thanking him, she invited him and his wife, along with some employees from the shelter to her new place where she baked muffins and a bunch of other cookies for them.
Her guests were stunned by the way the sweets tasted. They all agreed that they had never tasted anything so delicious before. As they were laughing and celebrating the new beginning, Vera’s boss said, “You know what Vera? You should start your own baking business. I will support you financially and help you start.” Vera was stunned by the suggestion. She did work at a pastry shop in the past and knew how things were done, but could she really embark on such a journey?
It turned out that she could. It took a lot of time and patience, but Vera opened a tiny shop which grew bigger in a couple of years.
