Sebastian put the piggy bankaside and asked with concern, " What's the matter? Do you need money? Is the allowance that your
mom and I give you not enough? why do you want to open up your piggy bank? Once you open up this piggy bank, you can't
close it up anymore."
Sebastian still remembered that this piggy bank of Aino's was what Minerva brought back for her when Minerva came back to the
country the first year she went abroad to study. The person Aino admired the most since she was a child was her Miss Minerva.
How could she bear to break the piggy bank that Minerva gave her?
Aino nodded seriously. "Well, no need. I just want to take the money out."
"Tell me, what are you going to use the money for after you've taken it out?" Sebastian asked.
"A girl in my class has...leukemia. Her family had already spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on her treatment. They're out of
money. I was thinking of giving her some money," Aino said to her father honestly.
"How much do you want to give to her?" Sebastian asked.
"I have almost ten thousand dollars in my piggy bank. I'll give it all to her," Aino said very generously.
"Silly girl! Why do you want to take the money out of your piggy bank? I can give you the money. You can even donate twenty
thousand dollars to her. You're helping your classmate, so I'll support you."
Aino shook her head again. "Dad, I'm already sixteen now. I already know that it's hard for anybody to make money in this world.
That's how it is for my mom. It's the same for you as well. It's a good thing to be kind and donate money to other people, but I
also have to do it within my limit. I can't take money that doesn't belong to me to do things that are out of my ability. That's not
right."
Sebastian felt a sense of shock when he heard Aino saying that. He had always been taking his child for someone who was not
sensible. However, he never expected that Aino was already so mature and reliable when considering a problem. Sebastian
could not help but feel proud.
He immediately hugged his daughter. "My daughter is my pride!"
"Come. I'll open up your piggy bank for you. We've broken the piggy bank that Miss Minerva gave you, so let's invite her to have
a meal at our house this weekend. It's been a long time since she last came over," said Sebastian.
"Mm-hmm. I also want to treat Miss Minerva to a meal." Aino immediately became happy when she heard that her father wanted
to invite Minerva over to their house.
During the weekend, Sebastian, Sabrina, and their family invited Minerva over to their house. Minerva was already a holder of a
Doctorate of Medicine and of Philosophy. She studied for eight years straight to obtain her doctorate degree. Her specialization in
the end was aesthetic medicine, she had just returned from studying abroad last year, but she was already the most sought- after
young doctor at the best hospital in South City. However, Minerva, who specialized in aesthetic medicine, still had a flat face, a
flat nose, and she has even more freckles on her face than when she was eighteen years old.
When she was sitting and chatting with them in the living room, Aino could not help but ask her, "Miss Minerva, say, you studied
aesthetic medicine, have you ever thought of doing minor cosmetic procedures on yourself?"
Minerva looked at Aino with annoyance. "What's the matter? When you were a child, you always felt that I was the most beautiful
lady in the whole world!"
Aino hugged Minerva's arm and said apologetically, "Miss Minerva, don't be angry. I'm just telling the truth. I'm not sensible when
I was a child, but I'm all grown up now. I am thinking on your behalf from a realistic perspective. You see, my Uncle Nigel is so
handsome..."
Minerva smiled gently. "I know what you mean. Nigel is very handsome. I'm indeed not quite worthy to be with him, but if you
want someone to love you, you can't rely on your appearance. No matter how good your appearance is, you'll still grow old one
day."
Minerva took a pause. "Also, our body, hair, and skin were given to us by our parents. If we were to change it, our loved ones..."
Speaking of that, Minerva glanced at Sebastian and said again, "I only have two loved ones in this world—my uncles. If I were to
have procedures done on my face, what should I do if both my uncles no longer recognize me? Therefore, no matter how ugly I
am, I also won't have work done on my face."
As soon as Minerva said that, there was a knock on the door. Aino immediately went to get the door. Aino was stunned when she
opened the door. "May I know who you are looking for?"
At that moment, Minerva also came to the door, when she saw the person, Minerva blurted out, "Miss, the traces of your
cosmetic surgery are very obvious, where did you get your surgery done?"NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
