Felix sees his elderly neighbor struggling to cut her overgrown lawn and rushes to help her. She insists on giving him an antique box as a token of appreciation, but this gift soon lands Felix in deep trouble when her lawyer phones to request an urgent meeting.
Felix, a single dad in his mid-30s, had been living a quiet life after losing his wife seven years earlier. He found solace in his job as a janitor and in raising his daughter, Alice.
One day, Felix noticed his elderly neighbor, Mrs. White, struggling with her lawnmower. He offered his help, and after they finished, Mrs. White insisted on giving him an ornately decorated box. Felix initially refused but eventually accepted a bag of apples for Alice instead.
When Felix returned home, Alice discovered the antique box hidden among the apples. Intrigued, Felix decided to return it, but found Mrs. White dead. Soon after, Mrs. White’s lawyer contacted him, revealing that the box held significant value. The unfolding events led Felix to confront moral dilemmas and legal troubles, ultimately relying on his daughter’s determination to uncover Mrs. White’s final wish and secure their future.
