Returning home, I arrived with a bouquet of flowers and a teddy bear. She was filming her friend at that very moment. There was no space for me in the bedroom. So, we went to the store for beer. After drinking, she confessed to having been unfaithful while I was away - shared Ivan Dubron.
Continuing his story, Dubron revealed his wife is awaiting... his death because Russia compensates the families of the deceased. - He explained that they provide 12 million rubles (over $157,600 - editor's note) to the parents and the wife.
