Plot of the series
Valentina believes she has an ideal life. She is the owner of a small atelier that brings in a decent profit. Her husband also runs his own business. He founded a car repair shop and even took on a new assistant, as he couldn't handle the large volume of work alone. The woman dreamed that soon they would both be able to step back from their jobs and dedicate the rest of their lives to traveling. After all, they had never once vacationed abroad together.

Moreover, the lady sincerely believed that she would soon become a happy grandmother. Her daughter had been dating a good guy for several years, who was the son of the heroine's friend. The children dreamed of getting married right after finishing college. Therefore, recently the woman had been in an elevated mood. She believed that a bright future awaited her, which she would be able to enjoy to the fullest.
The only person trying to make her take off her rose-colored glasses is an employee of the atelier and her loyal friend. She tries to convince the lady that not everything in her life is as smooth as it seems. To confirm her fears, she takes Valya to a fortune teller. The fortune teller predicted many problems for her in the future, but the heroine simply did not believe it. She thought the fortune teller was just trying to play along with her friend.
But soon all the predictions began to come true. Valya learns that her husband had been cheating on her for quite a long time. The mistress and the homewrecker turned out to be a woman who had repaired her car several times at his shop. The man didn't even try to justify himself. He simply packed his things and moved in with the mistress, as he felt that he no longer needed to play the role of a model family man.
The only joy for the mother, who buried her daughter, is her granddaughter. But she could also be taken away. After all, the biological father of the little girl has appeared, claiming that he cannot live without his child. Although in reality, he just wants to get money.
