Abigail said, "Their financial situation is pretty much similar to mine, maybe even a bit better."
Cornelia asked, "Can you elaborate on that?"
Abigail explained, "Their family lives in Springvale, near Riverton. The GDP of Springvale is a lot higher than Rosenberg's, generally wealthier, and the housing prices are also higher. They own two houses in Springvale, and his parents run a business that brings in quite a bit of dough.
“My boyfriend makes enough money to support his parents, and they've even saved a hefty amount for him. His mom even said that they've already set aside money for our future children, so we don't have to worry about that."
Cornelia said, "Why do I feel like she's trying to sell you a dream?"
Abigail said, "You're having that feeling too?"
Cornelia asked, "You too?"
Abigail said, "I did until last night, but not anymore."
Cornelia asked, "Why is that?"
Abigail explained, "Because last night his mom gave me a bank card with 20 grand as a gift, and told me to buy whatever I fancy."
There was a viewpoint online that said if someone was willing to spend money on you, it meant they really liked you. Abigail didn't originally agree with this viewpoint, she believed whether or not someone was willing to spend money depended first and foremost on their financial ability. What if someone loved you, but were broke?
