Het insistence left me feeling somewhat helpless.
Everyone knew I was the wealthy son of the Smith family and the company helt. Dat deep down, I understood that home of this was something I was meant to enjoy
My role in the family wasn’t about managing the company or basking in the privileges of being the heir. Rather, igy primary responubdity was to ensure that Racquelle stayed ude, especially when she needed a Hood transfusion during emergriscies.
Even though Gerald had given me cards to spend as I pleased, I had never used any of his money. I kept all the cards he gave me without spending a single cent
I’d lived off the company’s monthly paycheck of 10,000 dollars for years. I spent almost all of that on gifts for my sister
I didn’t care much for material things and usually wore cheap knockoff sportswear that cost only a few bucks. Because of that, Racquelle often berated me for embarrassing her and the Smith family
However, I didn’t think it wa

She snickered and shook her head. “This isn’t your concern Should I report to you when I start dating?”
