The millionaire decided to choose a wife by looking only at her hands and without even looking at her face: but when he finally made his choice among 20 girls and they removed the white sheet from the chosen one's head, the man was petrified with shock😨
Alexander was thirty-eight years old. He owned several large companies, lived in a huge mansion, and could afford practically anything.
In recent years, beautiful women were constantly seen with him. Models, actresses, daughters of wealthy businessmen dreamed of being by the millionaire's side. They smiled at him, whispered sweet nothings, and insisted that money meant nothing to them.
But Alexander had long since stopped believing them.
All he had to do was hide his status when meeting them or say he was having problems in business, and the woman's attitude would quickly change.
One evening, after another boring dinner, Alexander returned home
and he said to his assistant Michael:
— I want to get married.
Michael looked at him in surprise.
—And with whom?
- Don't know.
Alexander was silent for a moment and then unexpectedly added:
— And I don't want to know. Let fate decide for me.
The next day the millionaire explained his strange plan.
His assistants were tasked with finding twenty completely different single women. Alexander forbade them from choosing the women based on their appearance, wealth, or social standing. Furthermore, no one was to tell him who these women were, where they worked, or what families they came from.
And when the girls arrived at the mansion, their faces and bodies had to be completely covered with an identical white cloth. Only their hands were to be visible.
"I will choose one of them," Alexander declared. "And I will marry her."
Michael tried to convince his master to give up on that absurd idea, but Alexander wouldn't even listen to him.
A few days later everything was ready.
In the great
In the mansion's main hall, a long table was set up. Along its length stood twenty girls, completely covered in identical white cloth. Only their hands were visible.
Alexander entered the room. Behind him were his assistants and several guards.
The man slowly approached the first girl. Before him were slender fingers, a perfect manicure, and an expensive ring.
He lightly touched her palm and continued on.
The second woman's hands were just as well-groomed. The third wore an expensive bracelet on her wrist. The fourth had long nails. Alexander was in no hurry. He carefully examined each palm, sometimes gently touching the fingers, but said nothing.
