scanned over the price tag with the ridiculous amount of zeros. 1200 dollars for a dress was insane, overpriced, something I couldn’t afford -but then I remembered Alessio’s cand burung a hole in my pocket. 

Maybe just maybe.. 

I grabbed the cand and looked at it. I told myself I wasn’t going to use his money, but it wasn’t like he was going to miss it 

He gave me the card, and knowing how he got ticked off over the smallest things, he probably expected me to use it. 

I did say I wasn’t going to buy anything for myself, but I never said anything about Naty

Now I had no choice but to look at those rich people staring at me like a puzzle piece that that fit, but I did it for the joy of gifting something special to my daughter. For her, I could endure a few raised eyebrows. 

As I approached the counter, the same cold employee eyes me suspiciously while she packed the dress. “Cash or card?”

The moment she noticed the card, the woman’s eyes widened in surprise. “You’re connected to the Fanuccis?” she asked, her tone shifting from dismay to curiosity.
