The rich have their own quirks. Multi-billionaire Nikolai wanted to surprise his young bride with an unusual gift - a memoir about his own life. And to write them he hires the writer Lev Stasov. It would be worth giving up this adventure, but no. Leo is wondering why such a rich man couldn’t give his beloved some expensive trinket? Moreover, Nikolai has a lot of ancient jewelry hidden in his safe. Among them is even a ring that, according to legend, belonged to Maria de Medici herself. But one fine morning the jewels disappear. And with them is the rich man’s young bride. Nikolai is very upset. However, we should not forget that history knows many examples when losing is much better than finding.
