CHAPTER 17: SPOILING HERSELF

Trinity wasn’t one to waste time when she had a lot to do. So as soon as she got there, she stopped first at the financial service provider outlet, which she uses to send money orders to her home country.

The queue wasn’t that long, so it took her at most twenty to thirty minutes before she was done sending the money order.

Moments later, she called her mother as she left the outlet.

After a few rings, the call was answered, [Hello, child!]

A smile blossomed on her face as she listened to her mother’s voice. “Mother, how are you?”

[Faring well and yourself?]

“Doing much better. How is life over there?]

“It’s the same, but we are surviving!”

Trinity’s eyes softened as she listened to that. If she were to compare how her life was before she got the system, she would be lying if she were to say that she lived better than her mother.

At least her mother didn’t have to worry about a lot of things. As for herself, she was simply working for utilities and other expenses. She had to be stingy when spoiling herself lest she end up without any money. Thankfully, all that changed when she received the system. Life was already better and as time went on, it would be much better.

[That’s great. I just received the message of the order. Did you make a mistake? Why did you send more money?] Her mother’s worried tone rang in her ears, and Trinity, upon hearing that, felt her eyes stinging as tears pooled in her eyes.

From the day she started earning, apart from the time she was sending money for projects now and then, she had never seen so much money to her mother before. And to make matters confusing, she was sending holiday money, and she sent so much. How could her mother not be worried and show concern?

“Mother …. You …… I received a bonus. And things are much better this year. Just take that money and spoil yourself. In the future, get used to that. I will send you more!” she responded to her mother, determination in her tone and a sparkle in her eyes.

[Oh~ phew! Okay, then I guess I will accept that. If that’s what you say, then I can say that I am glad that things are going well. But don’t spend too much lest you end up with nothing, okay?]

Trinity chuckled helplessly when she heard that and responded, “Don’t worry, Mother. I will not forsake myself like that!”

Trinity and her mother chatted for a while before the call ended. Her mother received a visitor, and she planned to have a chat with the other. So, the call had to end shortly.

With the call ended, Trinity calmed her messy thoughts and began her shopping. There was a lot that she needed and this time, no one was going to stop her from spoiling herself.

With more than one thousand in hand, Trinity first visited the clothing shops and didn’t dare go to the cheaper ones. She picked the medium-sized brands she usually didn’t go for since their clothes were expensive for someone like her.

One dress’s price could buy her several dresses if she visited the usual clothing merchants she was used to. But this time, she planned to slowly integrate herself into the upper class. And to do so, she needed to change her taste in everything. So, she was going to start with clothes. Even if she was going to buy one item, it would be worth it.

Trinity reserved B$1,200 for clothes and shoes, and the rest for food.

With such an amount of money in hand, Trinity visited two of those shops and picked two pairs of closed shoes as well as a pair of sandals.

After that, she cheerfully picked a dress which cost her quite a lot as well as two pairs of jeans and t-shirts.

Just like that, all her money was depleted, but she was quite happy as by only treating and spoiling herself could she find her worth. Instead of waiting for other people to do so for her and then being fooled because of a single piece of clothing, she might as well start doing that for herself.

After shopping for clothes, she went for the groceries, which was quite easy and after a while, everything was purchased.

She booked a cab, which took her directly back to her compound.

Although she didn’t have time to tour around like she wanted, the fact that she had gotten everything that she wanted made her happy already.

Seeing the food and clothes in her room, the smile never left her face, even for a single bit.

However, that smile suddenly widened when Chunky’s voice suddenly sounded in the house.

[Congratulations host. You have been rewarded with a cleansing pill!]

“Chunky, why did I suddenly receive a reward? Why didn’t I know about this function before?” with a wide grin on her face, Trinity asked Chunky, feeling very pleased with the reward.

When she got the system, she thought that everything that she got was it. Never in a million years did she think that there was such a surprise like that!

However, she also didn’t anticipate the reason why she suddenly received such a reward. The moment she heard it; her eyes nearly popped out but the pride in her eyes was simply a lot to cover the shock.

[For making your mama feel proud, you deserve the random reward!]

“Haha, so it’s really true. As long as I make my mama feel proud of anything that I do, I get rewarded!” she couldn’t help but laugh heartily, her eyes squinting into crescents as she thought of that.

Previously, she got the system because of her wish to make her mama proud and now she was getting random prizes because her mother was happy.

How could she be so blessed like that?

Thinking about the many things that she planned on doing for her mother, Trinity’s eyes shone even brighter.

She couldn’t wait to see where that was going.

It wasn’t just about the rewards but repaying her mother for everything that she had done for her all these years.

Without her, Trinity wouldn’t be the person she is today.

So, she was forever grateful and would remain that way.

Thinking about the future, Trinity was looking forward to it even greater.
