Gold Digger vs Gold Saver My Man's Double Life novel Chapter 105

Chapter 5

Not gonna lie-when that check hit my palm. I got a little excited.

Classic soap opera move, right there!

Rich family disapproves of the poor girl, tries to buy her off.

This ridiculous wealth was finally iny turn!!!

Wasn’t even about the money-I’d just never seen an actual check before.

I stared wide eyed, counting the zeros.

Ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousands-that was quick.

I looked up, shocked.

“Four hundred thousand?”

Lydia saw my expression and burst out laughing.

“What’s with that look!”

“You didn’t actually think I was gonna give you four million, forty million, did you? Too many novels?”

“We’re rich, not stupid!”

“You and Darius were together four years-hundred grand per year, four hundred total for your youth. That’s fair.”

“I did my research. You make what, six or seven thousand a month? Don’t be greedy.”

Lydia clutched her purse, looking down at me.

“Honestly? You’re decent-looking enough.”

“Take this money, buy yourself some nice clothes, fix yourself up-you could probably land someone decent.”

“If that doesn’t work out, take the cash back to your hometown. You’re from Cedar Rapids, right? Housing’s like three, four thousand per square meter there?”

“Go home, find some honest guy to settle for. Nobody there needs to know about your New York days.”

That condescending attitude and arrogant tone pissed me off so much that even her face didn’t look as beautiful anymore.

What the hell did she mean “find some honest guy to settle for”?! Darius and I were in a real relationship-what’s shameful about that?!

Plus, we went to a decent university, and six or seven thousand starting salary isn’t bad at all! I work hard-with promotions and raises, earning four hundred grand on my own wouldn’t be that impossible!

No way I’m letting someone humiliate me over this chump change.

I glared and threw the check right back at her.
