One day, Mrs. Wakefield received a phone call from her banker.

He said to her, “Good morning ma’am. I wanted to share some news with you. The gold coins that we said were in your late husband’s safety deposit box, well, turns out there are no gold coins.” 

She cried out, “This is not good news. This is horrible news. I don’t know what to say.”

He then said to her, “Please let me explain!”

Before he could say anything else, she interrupted him, “Sir. There’s nothing you can say to make this any better. Your employees told me that my husband’s gold would be safe at your bank.” Then, she hung up. 

As the banker hung up the phone, his employee walked up and said, “How did Mrs. Wakefield respond to the good news that her safety deposit box is actually full of diamonds?”
