Mia found out about her billion-dollar donation two days later when Cooper came over to bring her food.

"Wow, sis, you really know how to splash out. Being a rich man's wife really changed you. You just casually donate a billion dollars like it's nothing," Cooper teased.

Mia squinted her eyes. "How much did I donate?"

Mia lost her appetite, pointing at herself. "Look at me, do I look like a billionaire to you? If I had a billion, wouldn't it be better to put it in a bank and earn interest? Are you saying I'm that generous? I've never even seen a billion in my life. Even if you sold me, do you think I'd be worth a billion?"

Andre looked at them. "Is that not enough?"

If you'd given me the money, I would be happy and we could have a second child. But you donated it all. We have nothing left. You've made me so mad. My belly hurts!"
