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?"

Cooper replied, "A billion."

"A billion?" Mia's face turned serious.

"Yes, a billion," Cooper confirmed, looking at his sister as if she had lost her mind. "Didn't you know?"

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?"

Cooper looked at his increasingly agitated sister and said, "Well, if it was just you, probably not. But now you're carrying a valuable little baby inside you. That makes you worth a billion."

Cooper had already guessed that the Cedillo family might have donated under his sister's name. "Could it be my brother-in-law?" he wondered out loud.

Soon enough, Mia's husband, Andre, arrived.

Running up to him, Mia looked up at him with her chubby face and asked, "Honey, was it you? Did you donate a billion dollars?"

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

And he'll have to get married someday! You're ruining us, Andre! 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.
