The situation was not at all calm when Amanda received the text with a not-so-nice photo. And then you receive the same on your fake Snapchat. She drops her creams and skin care products on the floor due to her nervousness and anger at the situation.

Roberth appears by surprise, and she wants to hit him. He makes her sit down and calm down. She screams demanding explanations.

- Amanda, I already told you. I did the girl a favor. And another, I need to show my father that I am capable of being “good” or I will lose my future. Please, no hysteria.

- So many people, institutions and you help this poor thing?

- It was the best option. Believe! Everything will conspire in my favor...

Amanda was still sulking minus seventy thousand dollars worth of jewelry in her hands. But I soon knew there would be more. She wanted so much more.

Sarah woke up the next day excited. When he looked in the mirror, he hadn't recognized himself in so long. She looked like the bright girl she used to be before her parents wasted her grandfather's fortune on gambling and casinos... and wanted to force her into vile and dark things...

They never thought of her, and despised her. She cried as she recalled everything she went through to escape her family at war with her, a cold war even... she had to flee and get used to poverty if she wanted to have a life of her own. It was inconceivable that she would get married or submit to their abuse... with her mother controlling her makeup and forcing her to use it for older men in exchange for nights spent eating expensive dinners and money in her parents' pockets to support her lifestyle. unrestrained life... all for the sake of a life of luxury that she didn't want to sustain. Amanda had no idea about Sarah's life

And he felt he had the right to judge her.

The Italian became friends with Anthony. That I was happy

he was happy with that. But not for long. Anthony thought he was on top of the situation by "manipulating" things in his favor and didn't know what he was getting himself into.

I didn't imagine it would be passed over.

Sarah was looking at the clothes she had bought. I was amazed at the quality of the clothes and makeup, I hadn't known what a new outfit was for so long... I was very worried about what I would do next... I was closing my eyes and remembering everything that had happened , from the last slap he received from his mother to passing the semester. her hair received professional care...

she looked at her new Macbook. and compared it with your previous one. it had evolved a lot and when you think about it, good things happen in unexpected ways...

Amanda huffed nervously. that girl was too loose for her taste. however, classes would only resume on Thursday. then she would find out what Roberth actually bought. But then she thought. - This girl has terrible taste. It should look similar to what you already have.

And he threw himself on the sofa and relaxed.

Meanwhile...Roberth arrived home very calmly. Anthony was already waiting for him, sitting in the living room , facing the fireplace with his book open. When he saw his son, he closed his book and caught his attention.

- We need to talk seriously, Roberth. There are a lot of strange things happening in the world and we need to pay attention to everything.

- Yes father. I know. I'm aware of that. Are you looking for a metaphor to say something important? Please be direct. What do you want?

- Well...you're learning very quickly and well. I saw that today you paid attention to the progress of the negotiations with the Italian CEO.

- Yes dad, perfectly. I'm here to learn from you.

- There are things you generally don't care about. and a necessary quality for the business world, not necessarily you must be, but you must appear to be, it is generous.

- Yes true. What do you mean by that dad?

- I'll be direct. I want you to do an act of charity, and show me all your generosity, so that this Italian CEO approves your qualities and trusts us completely.

- For what reason?

- In the future - said Anthony, closing the book, which made Roberth sigh. - I will explain everything in detail. For now, I need you to do this task...

- Actually, dad, I need to tell you a secret about something I did today. please don't criticize me.

- What would it be?

- I spent seventy thousand dollars. Before you arrest me, it was for a good cause.

- My God! What exorbitant expense would all this require? a new suit, a car you hit and had to silence the poor guy who was hit? Son, you need to be more careful!

- Dad, please let me explain. a girl at University is constantly mistreated and humiliated for her simple clothes and lack of financial means. I decided to help her improve her appearance so that she could get a good job in the future. Not everyone has a guaranteed life.

- Oh, yes... what did you do for her?

- Well, I gave him a shower, makeup, purchased food and personal and essential items, and deposited money into his account to pay off part of his student loans. and remain stable until you get a secure job.

- Wow! What a beautiful gesture my son. a lot of money well invested. this is exactly what I was looking for.

- Dad, I swear it was without ulterior motives with the girl. it was a conscious act of kindness.

- I know son, I know. Send proof of expenses by email. I will take care of replenishing your personal resources later. For now, he is dismissed. keep it up son.

- Thank you sir.

So Anthony leaves the room, leaving Roberth confused. Little did the young man know that a war would break out because of this "act of kindness".

He wished his father would make his life easier and not demand so many responsibilities from him.

Sarah wore a red Jessica Rabbit-style slinky satin dress. When she looked in the mirror, she felt beautiful. with this she recalled the days when she was an heiress loved by her late grandfather. both he and his grandmother were his real parents... how he missed them and the good times. she had a happy life while her grandparents were alive. I didn't care so much about money, I cared about feelings and memories. the simplest things fascinated her. Money wasn't always more worth it than family.

Your parents may never know what that is.

She sighs resignedly...

    The expensive whiskey that Roberth held on the coffee table of the restaurant was tasteless, perhaps insipid from the tears that had flowed throughout the night.
