Ellinor was puzzled.
Byran picked up an antique and said, "Although I'm not blood-related to my grandparents, they've been super nice to me over the years. Not so much to my sister, though."
Ellinor was lost in thought, making Byran think she was worried about lending him money, so he reassured her.
"Don't worry, I'll definitely pay you back! My brother said as soon as I pass all my subjects, he'll give me back my credit card limit."
Ellinor snapped out of it and burst into laughter, "Might as well say you're not paying me back!"
Byran frowned, "Ellinor, don't underestimate me. I can definitely pass!"
Ellinor didn't care about his grades. She thought for a moment and said, "I can lend you the money for the gift and you don't have to pay me back. But you have to promise me one thing."
Byran widened his eyes curiously at her, "What condition do you want me to agree to?"
"Take me to your grandpa’s birthday party tomorrow!"
Byran was stunned and confused, "Why do you want to go to my grandpa’s birthday party?"
"Just out of curiosity! I'm bored and want to go to a party; is that okay?"
Byran thought for a moment, "Okay! Deal, I'll take you!"
They agreed, and Ellinor paid for Byran's gift.
It wasn't very expensive, but it wasn't cheap either.
As they walked out of the antique shop with the gift, a black business car pulled up in front of them.
The car was a worldwide limited-edition; it was pretty much a status symbol for some guys.
