Five hundred dors? That was so expensive!


    The pharmacist chuckled, “Madam, there are a couple of high–end supplements in this prescription.


    Your cost is already a discounted rate.”


    Discounted? That still seemed like highway robbery!


    Carole was taken aback and quickly tugged at Anthea’s sleeve. “Ann, let’s bail on this. I’m doing.


    alright and don’t need this stuff. With a couple of days of rest, I’ll be as good as new.”


    “If you’re not interested, no skin off my nose,” the pharmacist said, taking back the medicine.


    Anthea patted Carole’s hand with a reassuring smile and faced the pharmacist, “We’ll take them.


    Here’s the cash.” As she spoke, Anthea pulled out the exact amount from her pocket and handed it


    over.


    The pharmacist fed the bills into the cash counter, exactly five hundred dors.


    Carole was heartbroken, “Ann, I’m really fine!”


    “Mom, moneyes and goes, but you only live once,” Anthea said earnestly.


    “Your daughter is right. How could five hundred dorspared to your health?” the


    pharmacist handed the supplements over to Carole. “Madam, you’ve raised a fine daughter!”


    “Thank you,” Carole said, epting the bag.


    Leaving the pharmacy, Anthea then headed to the market.


    She nned to buy some fresh fish and meat. Carole needed to build her strength.


    At the Morris family.


    Reba had been a heiress in her past life, so she adapted to thevish lifestyle of the wealthy


    quite easily.


    What she couldn’t get used to was the absence of Anthea, that infuriating bitch, from the Morris


    family.


    In her previous life, Reba found some perverse pleasure in tormenting Anthea when boredom


    struck. Now, something felt amiss.


    Lost in thought, a system notification beep echoed in her mind.


    Reba quickly essed the invisible control panel.


    A profile appeared on the screen.


    Daniel Robinson: a 28–year–old male, and the eldest son and heir to one of Capital City’s top ten


    families, the Robinson family, with a worth in the billions.


    “Got a photo of Daniel?” Reba squinted her eyes.


    The screen shifted, revealing the image of a young man with striking features and an air of


    distinction.


    Narrowing her eyes, Rebamanded, “Pull up Daniel’s recent schedule.”


    The system obliged, disying a detailed itinerary.


    After scrutinizing the schedule, Reba sat at her vanity to get dolled up.


    Though Daniel was prestigious, he wasn’t Reba’s ultimate goal but Mr. Christensen was.


    ording to the information, Daniel and Mr. Christensen were close friends.


    Getting cozy with Daniel was a stepping stone to getting closer to Mr. Christensen.


    Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.


    Unfortul the system couldn’t ess Mr. Christensen’s details. Otherwise, she wouldn’t


    have to go through the trouble of wooing Daniel.


    Outside a bustling shopping mall.


    A group of suit–d men surrounded a young figure, escorting him out.


    Leading the pack was none other than Daniel.


    As Daniel stepped out of the mall, he spotted a girl in a pristine white dress squatting nearby.


    beaming with a gentle smile, “Hey there, kiddo, how old are you?”


    The girl was beautiful, the white dress immacte, making her look like a flower in bloom.


    Before her stood a scruffy little boy with a snot bubble at his nose. The girl in the white dress. didn’t


    seem to mind at all. She carefully cleaned his face with a tissue, her expression full of tenderness.


    “Thank you,” the boy said politely with a grateful nod.
