“Now, that’s not fair,” he said, forcing a chuckle. “Kaia, your mother had no family left. From the day we married,
she never had to work again. You were born with a silver spoon in your mouth, weren't you?”
Kaia slowly set down her fork, her eyes fixed on his face.
“Are you sure about that, Dad? That | grew up with a silver spoon?”
Sally had been sabotaging her in subtle, calculated ways for as long as she could remember.
The Domont Villa was far from the city. Her school commute
alone took over an hour.
When she was six, she once waited outside her school until the sun dipped low in the sky. The driver never came.
She didn’t have a cellphone, so she just stood there and watched as every other child was picked up by their
parents.
Even if their parents arrived on mopeds or scooters, it didn’t matter—those pickups looked a thousand times
warmer than anything she ever gol, even from her family with four wheels

That day, it was Alyssa-the Graves family’s little princess, who usually didn’t get along with Kaia—who
generously offered her a
ride.
“Kaia, no one cto pick you up?” she asked, peering curiously at the quiet girl standing alone at the school
gate.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtKaia pressed her lips into a thin line. Her eyes were red, filled with tears she was trying hard not to shed.
Alyssa panicked. “Hey, why are you crying? | didn’t even bully you today!”
“Don’t cry, okay?” she said anxiously, rummaging around for
tissues.
Luckily, a teenage boy sitting in the front seat handed her a sky-blue handkerchief just in time.
Alyssa gratefully passed it to Kaia.
“Here, wipe your face. Don’t cry. Next tno one comes to pick you up, just ride hwith me, alright?”
But Kaia’s tears only fell harder, like a string of beads suddenly snapped.
Alyssa was beside herself. In a desperate attempt to stop the

crying, she tilted her head and tried.
“Kaia, how about we be best friends from now on, okay? Please stop crying.”
Kaia wiped her face, her voice soft and sticky-sweet from all the tears. “Okay.”
Moments like these weren't rare, but after that, Kaia was never left waiting alone at the school gates again.
Now, years later, Kaia looked across the table and curled her lips into a sarcastic smile.
“Dad, the only one in this family who truly grew up with a silver spoon in her mouth was Kimberly.”
Tobias had no response.
When Kaia was little, he barely did the dad thing-just covered the basics.
It was when the company was booming. He was too wrapped up in business to notice what his daughter felt.
In his mind, sending her to a top private school and making sure she never went hungry or cold-that was already
more than enough.
He sighed, “Kaia, that’s not fair. When | was your age, your

elementary school in the city.”
Kaia calmly picked up her fork and took a small bite of fish. “True. But didn’t | get transferred to a public school
for middle school?”
Tobias’ face stiffened.
Kaia gave a cold little smile. “It was Kimberly who stayed in private school through middle and high school. Not
me.
“At the time, Sally said you were stressed from your startup and that the money should go toward your business.
She said spending so much on my education wasn’t worth it. Have you forgotten that?”
Tobias was yanked back in time.

There had been a six-month stretch when the company was dangerously low on cash. He'd been chasing
investors, applying for loans.
Sally had comforted him, saying they could cut household expenses to ease the pressure.
So Kaia’s education was the first thing sacrificed.
Tobias tried to salvage the conversation. “But still, Kaia, you

Tobias’ hand froze mid-air. “Regret what?”
“Letting you walkdown the aisle,” Kaia said coolly. “My ever-so-biased father.”
