Only then did I see her appearance. It was Selene, my neighbor who lived in the abandoned Reeds manor.
My mother, Sarah, had often complained about her unreasonable behavior during Reed's manor renovations, which had led Bruce to mediate multiple times.
"Spending a man's money on a bag and you're upset?" Selene sneered.
Confused, I replied, "Did you mistake me for someone else?"
While I was using Bruce's supplementary card, it was still my money.
"How could I be mistaken?" Selene slammed a few bills in my face. "No wonder Bruce's credit card limit dropped so fast. He opened a supplementary card for you months ago. You're spending a lot."
I scratched my head. I had just returned from studying abroad and needed to buy many things, so Bruce had given me the card.
"Yes, I spent it. Is there a problem?" I thought she was here to collect a debt. "I did spend a little more, but..."
It was all my hard-earned money, and the family company was founded by me.
Before I could finish, Selene slapped me hard.
"How shameless of you, spending other people's money without a hint of embarrassment." Selene looked down on me condescendingly.
