Faux Vows, True Desires

Owen looked at Cecilia, waiting for her response.

"Grandpa, I'm used to my own bed, so I can't sleep if I change places. I better go home, or I won't have the energy to run the shop if I can't sleep."

Cecilia didn't want to spend the night here.

Even if Owen really wanted her to stay, she wouldn't agree.

"You don't need to work then. We got plenty of money at home. No woman who marries into our family needs to work. The family gives every member a living allowance every month, and the men also give their wives pocket money. Cecilia, all you need to do is enjoy life at home. If you get bored, you can call your friends to go shopping or go on a trip."

Cecilia kept silent.

"Owen, haven't you been giving Cecilia pocket money? Give me your wallet."

Trenton asked his grandson to hand over his wallet.

Owen dared not mention the agreement he and Cecilia had, which required him to give her thirty thousand dollars a month in living expenses. So he took out his wallet and handed it to Trenton, saying, "Grandpa, she's not short of money."

The thirty thousand dollars he gave her was enough for her to live on.

Trenton ignored him and opened his wallet to look inside.

Cecilia originally thought Trenton would at most give her all the cash in Owen's wallet. She was still debating whether to accept it when Trenton handed her a black card.

She curiously took the credit card. She had heard of black cards. The male protagonist in the novels written by Lucinda was a man who had a black card.

But in real life, this was her first time seeing a real black card.

She looked at the black card a few times, then returned it to Trenton, laughing, "So that's what a black card looks like."
