Twenty Years Together, Lost to a Poor Boy
Chapter 1
At the school tennis tournament, when my girlfriend Victoria found out my racket cost a hundred thousand dollars, she went ballistic.
"A hundred thousand? Just for this piece of junk racket? Are you insane! You're a complete spendthrift."
She pulled over Killian, a student on financial aid: "His monthly living expenses are less than five hundred dollars. Wouldn't it be better to help him out instead?"
I frowned. "It's my money. I can spend it however I want. Why should I subsidize him? Just because he's poor? There are tons of poor people in the world."
Seeing I showed no remorse, Victoria flew into a rage and demanded I hand over all my bank cards.
"I'm going to marry you eventually anyway. From now on, I'll manage all your family's money. Starting today, you need to submit a request and get my approval before spending anything."
I fell silent, looking at her like she was a stranger, then turned to call my grandfather Johnson to cancel our engagement.
Since she sympathized so much with Killian, I'd help them both out!
