"My father took his shot by siding with the old regime, and my mother backed him all the way. They messed up big time! But I haven't even had my chance yet, and this family mess has ruined it."

She watched him intently, searching for a flicker of doubt.

"You've got wealth now, I can see that. But what happens when love fades? Jasmine might grow bored and cast you aside without warning. You can't put your faith in something as unstable as love."

"The money could vanish in an instant, and you'll be right back where you began- back on the streets, in the slums. That's not where you want to end up, is it?"

"While you're ahead, you should take that fortune and make it work for you." "The only thing you can truly rely on is the wealth you hold and the future you secure!"

Alex removed his watch and held it up. "Do you recognize this timepiece?"

Lyra's eyes widened. "Patek Philippe Grandmaster Chime Ref. 6300A-010. Worth $31 million."

"Good," he nodded, tossing his car key to her. "In my car, you'll find the original box and documentation."
