She felt incredibly wronged and deeply furious.
Her thoughts drifted back to her birthday party and seeing Seth's older sister.
They were around the same age, so why did Winona get to live such a pampered, luxurious life, radiating that effortless aura that only generations of wealth could buy?
Why?
Why her?
Tears spilled from Whitney's eyes, one after another, and she stubbornly scrubbed them away with the back of her hand.
Her phone buzzed. She picked it up.
A message from her contact saved as 'Top Dono'.
Top Dono: [Sorry about the delay, haha. Was out fishing with some friends and didn't check my phone. The islands over here in Italy are beautiful. You should come visit sometime.]
Biting her lip, Whitney sent back a sticker of a crying kitten.
Top Dono: [What's wrong? Are you tired from doing homework, Whitney?]
Top Dono: [[Cash gift]]
Whitney was slightly taken aback.
Whitney_Goodnight: [Why did you send me a cash gift?]
Top Dono: [Compensation for replying late.]
*Compensation for replying late?*
Whitney stared at the words, stunned for a long time.
Was this the charm of a mature man? The kind of wealthy sugar daddy type she'd only ever read about in novels.
Whitney's cheeks flushed as she let her imagination run wild.
So what if her parents weren't rich? She could just find a wealthy boyfriend.
She was just as good as anyone else.
Compared to a gentle, affluent, older gentleman like him, boys like Seth and Jonathan Caldwell were practically toddlers.
Whitney timidly typed: [You're so sweet.]
Top Dono: [Just 'so sweet'?]
Whitney rolled onto her princess bed, kicking her feet up in the air, quickly scrolling through her stickers for the cutest one.
Whitney_Goodnight: [What else do you want?]
Top Dono: [How about changing what you call me?]
Whitney_Goodnight: [Sure.]
