ick home. I was still shaken.
Kering my unmutexpression. Daisy enviously asked what happened.
ingrily told her what had just necurred, including how Ivan nearly threw me into the water and wanted me to hand over my salary
Throughout the whole time I was Venting, Dairy remained silent
After I finished, she suddenly came out with “Molly, it must be exhausting to be in a relationship with you ”
She took my silence as reflection and started lecturing non step. “It’s normal for a boyfriend to joke around with you, bur you por kicked him. Ivan must feel very wronged as your boyfriend
anery you even
“And handing over your salary is such a small matter. When two people are together, they should plan for the future. It’s not unreasonable for Ivan to want to manage the money. With your reckless spending, you’ll eventually bankrupt the family.”
“hvan is thinking for you, and you don’t even appreciate it. I really feel bad for him.”
This person is her brain functioning properly?
Our ways of thinking are not on the same level. Continuing to argue with her would be pointless.
1 carelessly tossed out: “You’re a hit of a doormat, aren’t you?” Then I went back to my bedroom and closed the door. Soon after, I heard the sour door slamming next door. Looks like she’s fuming.
But I’m also curious. As my cousin, Daisy has an inseparable blood relation with me. Why does she always side with Ivan in everything?
Little did I know, the answer to this question would reveal itself sooner than I expected, and in a way I never anticipated.
For the next week, Ivan and I didn’t meet, and we didn’t even exchange messages. I must have kicked him harder than I thought, and if I didn’t take the tiative to apologize to Ivan, he would never forgive me.
But that was fine by me. I was relishing the peace and quiet.
One night as I was going to bed, I suddenly remembered that the price of gold had gone up recently. I had an old gold bracelet that I was planning to melt down and remake into a necklace and earrings set
I opened the compartment in my wardrobe, but the bot that should have contained my gold bracelet was nowhere to be found.
Inside was only a plain hand chain, with signs of discoloration around the edges, clearly
worn for a long time.
Although Daisy and I both have keys to the front door, only Ivan and I have keys to my bedroom. During happier times, I had given him a spare key. and I lock my bedroom every day when I go out, so only Ivan could have come in
Without hesitation, I called him. On the other end, Ivan sounded somewhat smug.
“Oh, you know you were your place.”
e wrong and are calling to apologize? Looks like the cold shoulder treatment works after all. You women just need to be put in
I didn’t want to waste words with him and got straight to the point: “What happened to my gold bracelet from my wardrobe, and what’s this worn out hand chain doing there?”
admitted it rather frankly. “Didn’t you agree last time that we’d put our money together? So I took the bracelet. When my mom found out, she even specially gave you the hand chain she’s worn for many years. You should be glad to have such a thoughtful mother in–law.”
“I don’t want to argue with you. Just quickly return the gold bracelet to me.”
“I’ve already sold it. I’m saving the money for you, it’s like our dating fund. In the future, my bride price will also come from this dating fund.”
Ivan spoke as if it was perfectly reasonable, but I was laughing with anger: “Why should, my gold bracelet be used for your bride price? You’re trying

to get a Wee ride, you know?”
“How can this be a free ride? Molly, I think you’re just too self–absorbed.”
“You should learn from your cousin. It’s strange, you’re blood relatives, how can you two be so different in personality? Daisy is as gentle as a flower, while you always calculate everything in a relationship. It’s really tiring being with you.”
“If it’s tiring, then let’s break up. I’ll give you two choices now: either I report this to the police, or you return the gold bracelet immediately.”
“The ball’s in your court
Just as I was about to hang up, Ivan’s panicked voice came through the phone:
“Molly, can you stop being so unreasonable? Why do you always threaten me with breaking up? Is that fun for you? If you hadn’t bought that
thousand dollar iPhone, would I have had to think of ways to save money for you? I’m doing this all for your own good, and you’re not even
grateful-
Unbelievable, when did thieves become so audacious?
Seeing that there was no reasoning with Ivan, I directly dialed the police.
