Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress

225 Start of summer break

Start of the summer break- Cortez Household.

Nina sat down on the bed and stared at the little cash she got from her last allowance. Since she stopped taking private transportation services, she hadn't been low on cash. She also stopped buying food outside since Jessa prepared them some lunch boxes.

Nina raised her head at the door, catching Yuri peeking her head in.

"Nina?" Yuri called. "Are you ready now?"

"I don't think this is enough. Nina jerked her chin to her cash. "I searched online on how much it might cost us, but compared to the price I saw, this is... it's not enough, isn't it?"
