The next day, La took Ivy shopping again and after visiting a few other stores, Ivy decided that she preferred the dress from the day before, so they went back to the store to purchase all three dresses. La knew her mother''s measurements and did not have to consult Avery.
"Can you have them adjusted by tonight?" La asked the owner. "We need them for tomorrow."
"I will have them adjusted by tonight," the owner promised. "Ms. Tate, you are a loyal customer here. We will do our best to fulfill your request."
"Great. I''ll pay now!" La took out her card from her purse.
Ivy took out her own card. "La, why don''t we use my card? I haven''t gotten to use it yet! I don''t even know what the limit of the card is."
La burst intoughter. "That''s a sub-card to Dad''s ount. There''s no limit to it. You can easily buy a house with it."
"If you want to try spending your money, you can use your card!"
"Will Dad find out?"
"Haha! Worried that he will be upset? Rx! He doesn''t care where we spend our money. Robert is using the secondary card to Dad''s ount as well. He uses it to buy cars and digital products. Expensive stuff. Dad never says a word about it."
Ivy immediately handed the owner her card. The owner ran the card and Ivy pressed in the password for the card.
"La, did Dad give you your card?" Ivy asked as she put her credit card away.
"I used to use a secondary card to Mom''s ount because the money I made as a child was kept in her ount, but I started using my own card after I turned eighteen. Mom would put a certain amount of allowance into my ount each month. If you don''t want your every move to be watched, you can make your own ount as well."
Ivy shook her head. "I will do so once I start making my own money!" She had no ability to make her own money at the moment and she did not wish to make any request to her parents, especially when Elliot did not care where she spent the money at all.Text content ? N?velDrama.Org.
"Sure. Just don''t overthink it. Our
parents are the best parents in the whole world. Their expectation for us is simply: to stay healthy and happy assure you that Dad would actually be happy if you spend more money. You can try, but you will never be able to spend all the money Dad makes."
"Mom said the same," Ivy said.
"Hahaha! If there is one thing that we have in abundance, that''s money. Just buy whatever you want. Don''t overthink. Just be happy." La took Ivy to view apartments.
"I still can''t get used to that kind of spending habit, La. I used to be so poor that I couldn''t even afford fruits."
"I thought I knew what you''ve been through, but I didn''t expect it to be that bad. That''s all the more reason to spend more; to make up for the lost time in the past eighteen years. Why don''t you buy an apartment, too?"
Ivy shook her head frantically. "No, La. You go on ahead. I don''t want to move out. When I start college, I don''t even know if I will get to stay at home."
Ivy enjoyed her time at home because of the members of her family and the atmosphere at home.
"Have you chosen your university? If you pick one that''s closer to home, you can still stay at home!"
"I picked Southern University."
"I see... That''s a little far from home." La considered the distance between Southern University and Elliot''s mansion. "If you want to stay home, you can just get the driver to drop you off every day. There are plenty of people who stay in remote areas but work in the city center. Those people usually have to travel hours back and forth."
"Mom wants me to stay home, too, so I guess that''s what I will do. If it gets too tiring, I will rent a ce near campus."
"Sure."
The two started apartment hunting and after viewing a few apartments, La decided on a fully furnished apartment so that she could move in right away. Though there were a few fully-furnished apartments, she chose one that could see the Tate Industries'' building from the balcony.
"La, you really are tied to thepany," Ivy said.
