Shelly''s face lit up with a triumphant expression. "See that, ir? How''s that for a reality check? Now,


    both of you, leave!" "I used to think you were impressive, but it turns out you''re just leeching off


    someone else''s VIP membership card. You might as well change your name to Miss Mooch-a-lot. Let''s


    go!" ir mocked.


    After ir changed out of her dress, she turned and walked away.


    Standing in ce, Shelly grinned smugly as she quipped, "Well, if you''re so fond of piggybacking, why


    not get your own VIP membership card like Aubrey''s? Then you can piggyback all you want."


    Next to Shelly, her sidekick Jennifer rke added, "Exactly. ir has been mooching off Aubrey''s card


    all this while. She has no right to say anything." "Yes, these days, it seems like almost everyone has an


    older sister, right?"''


    After expressing her frustrations, Shelly nestled closely to Mia.


    "Monalize, you''ve been so nice to me. I''ve always looked up to those with older siblings. ir has been


    showing off, bragging about having an older sister. Today, I finally feel like I''ve gotten my revenge."


    Masking her unease, Mia responded calmly, ''Shelly, from the moment I met you, I felt a genuine


    connection." "Monalize, if you end up marrying Tim someday, we''ll truly be family, even closer


    than we are now."


    Mia smiled knowingly. "That''s certainly a possibility, but it ultimately depends on fate. I must admit, I


    don''t have much knowledge about Timothy or the Barrett family." "These are trivial matters, Monalize. If


    you have any doubts, feel free to ask me. I''ll provide you with all the information you need about the


    Barretts."


    Noticing Shelly''s enthusiasm, Mia smiled as she knew Shelly would take the bait.


    She offered a faint smile and said, "Very well, as a gesture of gratitude, I''ll cover the expenses for your


    purchases today." "Really? But I feel a bit embarrassed about this. I epted your bag and shoes


    yesterday, and now you''re paying for my things. It doesn''t sit right with me. I''m not the type to take


    advantage of others."


    Witnessing Shelly''s insincerity, Mia''s mouth twitched in response.


    However, she regained herposure quickly and replied, "It''s okay. I gave you those gifts willingly.


    Considering we might be family someday, this expense is insignificant to me. Please, choose whatever


    you like."


    Overwhelmed with excitement, Shelly eximed, "In that case, I won''t hesitate!"


    With that, she quickly stepped away and took the dress that ir had previously tried on.


    unting this item in ir''s presence might escte her agitation even more.


    Jennifer couldn''t help but interject, "Shelly, I''m so envious of you." "I know, right? Shelly, is she Tim''s


    girlfriend? She seems extremely generous, even having a VIP membership card. Having a connection


    with you will definitely be advantageous for US in the future.”


    With an air of superiority, Shelly picked out a bag and retorted, "Well, of course. How could Tim''s


    girlfriend not be well-off? They share simr social backgrounds!" "Shelly, where is Monalize from? She


    doesn''t seem to be well-known in the


    N?velDrama.Org owns this text.


    high-society circles of Bern City."


    If a young person were to hold a VIP membership card, it would undoubtedly have sparked


    considerable discussion within elite circles.


    Shelly replied nonchntly, "She''s actually from Nord City, not Bern City, so it''s understandable that


    you''re not familiar with her. But since their rtionship has just been confirmed, let''s keep it low-key for


    now."


    In the end, Shelly settled on several outfits, as well as a few bags and some shoes.


    Wearing her newest dress, Shelly took a selfie and posted it on her social media with the caption:


    "Thankful for this wonderful gift from my future cousin-inw!"


    Upon seeing Shelly''s post, Luna''s expression twisted with anger.
