My boyfriend is notoriously frugal. For my birthday, he only bought a cake that cost a few bucks. When it comes to gifts, he only gives me cheap lipstick that can be found at roadside stalls. He tells me that making money is not easy, and that people like us, who come from a poor background, have to be meticulous with our spending. Until one day, I saw him sharing a bottle of oxygen under the Alps with another woman, and he presented her with a valuable diamond ring. They exchanged the most sincere vows to each other, promising to never part. Ah, so it turns out that all his talk about working hard and saving was just for my sake. Since that's the case, I'll show them what true 'money power' looks like!

Chapter 1

My boyfriend was famously frugal.

He would only buy a cake that cost a few dollars for my birthday. His gifts were always inexpensive lipsticks that could be bought from street stalls.

He told me that it wasn't easy to earn money and that people like us, who came from poor backgrounds, had to be careful with our spending.

Until one day, I saw him sharing a bottle of oxygen with another woman at the foot of the Benbonear Mountains and presenting her with a valuable diamond ring.

They made the most sincere vows to each other, vowing never to be separated.

Well, so all that talk about struggling and being thrifty was just for me.

Alright then, let me show you what the power of money could do!

01.

"Darling, let's go on a trip during the holiday. How about going to Swizk? We can see the Benbonear Mountains there."

Kevin Black, who was washing dishes in the kitchen, paused when he heard this. He wiped his hands as he came out and said, "Ava, I was just about to tell you. I am sorry."

Kevin sat beside me, took my hand, and looked at me sincerely. "The studio has got a client during the holiday. It's a really good project, so I might have to go on a business trip. How about I take you to the mountains nearby when I get back? What's so fascinating about the Benbonear Mountains? They're so far away. The mountains nearby are just as nice. Let's save some money. I'll work harder to earn more, and by the end of the year, I'll pay the down payment for that house you like. Isn't that neighborhood your favorite? Let's do it your way!"

Kevin spoke earnestly, and I understood how tough it was for him to work his way up from such a remote small town.

I pouted, feeling a bit disappointed.

"Alright, but you better come back soon!"

"I will!" Kevin smiled and kissed my cheek.

I watched Kevin board the train on holiday.

After leaving the train station, my best friend Anna Ford called me. How's the commoner's life treating you? I just got off the plane. Aren't you going to treat me to a nice meal?"

I chuckled on the phone.

Yes, I was the daughter of the chairman of White Enterprises.

Dad said he wanted to train my ability to make my way in society, so since primary school, my parents were laid-off workers running a store in a small county town, with no privilege or background.

I took my mother's surname, so hardly anyone around me would link me with the phrase 'rich heiress'.

But even so, I worked my way up and finally opened my own home decoration studio.

Earning and spending my own money was much more comfortable than those rich second-generation kids who sponge off their parents.

"Alright! What do you want to eat? Australian beef? Boston lobster? You decide on the place, send me the location, and I'll see you tonight!"

"Sounds great!" Anna hung up and sent me the details of a restaurant where the average cost per person is in the four figures.

Wow, she was really determined to make me foot the bill today!

That evening, I sipped red wine while listening to Anna recount her experiences traveling around the world.

But as she scrolled on her phone, her expression changed. She looked at me and then at the video on her phone.

I thought she was up to some tricks, so I snatched her phone away. At that moment, I was stunned.

The man in the video, I'd recognize him even if I were reduced to ashes!

My brain froze for an instant. I couldn't figure out how the person I had just seen off on the train in the morning could show up abroad by nightfall.

In the video, Kevin was like a completely different person. He was kissing another girl in the snow. Amid the deafening cheers of the crowd, he slowly got down on one knee, took out a diamond ring, and made a heartfelt confession of love to her.

I paid special attention to the IP location.

Swizk, Eastern Benbonear Mountains. A diamond ring of Brand G, this year's new style, priced at over 80, 000 dollars.

So, Kevin, who had always been talking about saving money for me, actually took another girl to the tourist destination that I had always longed to visit and bought her such an expensive diamond ring.
