“Avery, your necklace is so beautiful. It must be very expensive, right? It looks so good on you,” one of the girls said with envy.

Picking up the pendant on the necklace, Avery raised her eyebrows slightly and replied, “It’s okay, I guess. My dad likes to buy me necklaces and always buys me gifts whenever he goes on a business trip.”

“You have a great dad who pampers you so much. Unlike my family. My dad favors my younger brother more, so most of the good stuff belongs to my him instead.”

Avery smiled and said, “I’m his only daughter, so of course, he has to pamper me. My brothers complain as they feel like they’re adopted, and I’m his only biological kid”
