NovelEndChapter 442:
Kristopher hesitated, admiring the glowing smile that graced Carrie's features.
He murmured, “Could you explain what you mean by giving it to you in cash?”
With a blink of her big eyes, Carrie responded, “It's quite simple. You're prepared to invest ten million in me,
whether for a pen or cash—it makes no difference. Isn't it all the same?”
Observing her closely, Kristopher asked, “Is that really you, Carrie? Or has someone else taken over your body?
Just a few months back, you treated money with contempt and dreamed of abandoning everything. Yet here you
are, debating the cost of a pen.”
After a brief pause, he smirked and added, “Have the harsh realities of life shown you that even love needs
financial support?”
Carrie straightened up and retorted, “What do you mean, debating? I've cto a realization—you’ve become

that worth something?”
Without hesitation, Kristopher pulled out his phone, punched in a sequence of numbers, and completed the
transfer, saying, “Alright, I'll send twenty million. Go ahead and buy any pen you like. Just hand over the pen
now.”
Rising, Carrie approached the nightstand, retrieved the pen from its box, and presented it to Kristopher.
He accepted the pen, struck a few poses while taking pictures of himself writing, and chose the best one. He
opened WhatsApp, only to realize he couldn't find Albin’s chat because he had blocked him.
After unblocking Albin, Kristopher sent the photo along with a message, saying, “This is the pen my wife got
a,
“I've received so many gifts that I've lost the urge to show them off. It’s valued at a hundred thousand—enough
to purchase several of your flower bouquets, right?”
On his screen, Albin noticed the cascade of red exclamation marks. Just as frustration began to set in, he read
Kristopher’s message.
His eyebrows arched in irritation. Was this actually a contest?
He quickly replied, “It’s not the price that counts in gifts but the thought that goes into them. Clearly, my gift
was more thoughtfully chosen.”
Recalling a dubious piece of advice he saw online, Kristopher typed and responded, “Where there's money,
there's love.”
Left speechless, Albin had nothing to reply. Kristopher’s candid remark rendered him silent. Never had he
imagined that Kristopher, for whom money was merely a series of figures, would utter such a down-to-earth,
albeit cliched, statement.
He responded with an emoji, “You've got this one; you win.”

Following their dinner, Kristopher headed to his office while Carrie made her way to the set.
Upon her arrival, she noticed a crowd encircling Soren, all engrossed in a lively discussion. Catching sight of her,
Soren approached with a cheerful grin.
