Chapter 32 : Can You be Bought with Cash or Card?

"Here."

I stare at what George is trying to hand me and for a moment I'm not quite sure what I'm looking at until it hits me. It's a credit card. No, a bank card.

"I've loaded it with two million monthly cap. If you need more though, just call Miss Cates and she'll top it off for you." He says it easily, as if this isn't a full-on insult to me.

After three years, he is giving me a bank card. Back when we were married, I didn't even have one. All the groceries were taken care of by the maids.

I might have done chores and cooked, but all I had to do was ask them to pick something up and they would. If I needed clothes or needed to do personal shopping for myself I would have to ask for money, and while George would give it, he always had something to say, making asking for it to be awkward.

It got to the point that most of the clothing I owned was gifted because it was 'suitable' for his wife and not really my style.
