Chapter 454

What Scott didn’t know at the time was that Sharon had already been accepted into Bell University under special consideration.

Still, young and proud, she held fast to her dignity. She refused the bank card Scott handed her.

Scott said, “You may only be a year younger than Victoria, but you’re not on her level. Just take the card. If it’s not enough, you can always ask us or Dad for more.

“You’re family, after all. Life out there couldn’t have been as good as it is here. If you want to buy luxury goods, jewelry, or a car, just make a list. The family will take care of everything. We don’t want people thinking we’ve been neglecting you.”

She had just reunited with her family, and they were already offering her the spoils of indulgence, as if her return wasn’t to reconnect with family, but to spend money.

If she had taken that card, it would’ve only deepened their contempt.

Sharon had never known hardship growing up. A celebrated beauty and a top student, she’d always lived a life of comfort. Back home, she was the textbook definition of a wealthy, well-bred socialite.
