Chapter 21 She Gets So Little Allowance
In a daze, Reyna led Valerie to her new room.
Only then did she realize that Valerie had fallen and got hurt.
“Does it hurt, Valerie? I’ll apply some ointment for you later.”
“It’s fine. The wounds will mostly recover tomorrow.”
Valerie wasn’t intending to give Reyna a chance.
Watching Reyna lead her to a guest room, Valerie got a rough idea of what to expect.
“See, Valerie? This is the room your dad and I prepared for you! Do you like it?”
The room was smaller than her previous one but larger than the storage
room.
It was in a log style, a simple collection of solid colors that Valerie dug.
“Well? Do you like it?”
Reyna asked cautiously and tentatively, observing Valerie’s expression as she asked.
There was still no change. Valerie still looked calm, and no one could tell her–emotions.
Reyna stared at Valerie’s face without blinking.
She wanted to hear what Valerie would say.

Valerie looked over her shoulder at Reyna, who looked nervous. Valerie sighed helplessly.
“It’s great. I love it.”
She sounded happy. Reyna was relieved at once.
“I’m glad that you like it. Be good from now on, OK?”
Valerie sneered silently.
She thought, “Be good?
You took my room, and I was put in the storage room. I was there for two years before you found out, and now you change my room.
You call it a surprise.
Since when has it been so difficult to have a room of my own in my own home?
How can a room be a gift?
It is normal for parents to provide their kids with a comfortable room.
I tried to talk to you many times in my last life before I was kicked out.
Yet I never got to.”
Valerie suppressed her unhappiness and slowly breathed in and out through her nostrils.
If she hadn’t gone out with Zoe to get the exercise book, they wouldn’t have found out at all.
She looked at the clean new room in front of her.
Yet she wasn’t happy at all.

She pretended so that Reyna wouldn’t feel awkward.
Everything in the room was new
There were some new clothes in the wardrobe.
All the old clothes were stored in the storage room.
Valerie’s eyes were gloomy and cold.
“Is the stuff in the storage room still there. Jayvion?”
“Yes. Ms. Valerie. Do you need anything? I’ll go fetch it for you.”
Valerie shook her head.
“Jayvion. I want a key to the storage room.”
Jayvion immediately knew what she wanted.
He figured that Valerie didn’t like the room.
He worked so hard today, for he wanted her to be happy, yet things went backway.
Jayvion was a little upset, but he still bent over to get closer to her.
“Sure thing. Ms. Valerie. But I’m afraid that you have to wait till tomorrow: I’ll go and make a new key”
Valerie stared at him without blinking. Just as he was a bit uneasy under her gaze, she smiled.
“Hove the color and the decoration of the room. Jayvion, thank you!”
She was being straightforward enough. Jayvion, of course, knew the reason why she didn’t like the room.

He wanted to come forward and hold Valerie tightly.
He thought. “If she were my granddaughter, I would dote on her so much!
I would spoil her!
Who else can be as clever and sensible as her?”
Yet he soon felt so sorry for her.
He sniffed and secretly raised his hand to wipe the tears from his eyes.
“You may go ahead and do your homework then, Ms. Valerie. I’ll get you dinner.”
He smiled as he left the room and hurried to the kitchen to get her
dinner.
He didn’t want her to be hungry.
