"From now on, the amount of your allowance each month will depend on my mood, so you'd better not make me upset."
Amos Smith dropped this remark and hung up immediately, not giving Maya Mu a chance to plead.

Maya turned to look at Bertha Haines, as if to say: Bertha, I'm sorry, once I've saved enough money, I'll come back to be your guardian.
Bertha had always been curious about something: [Uncle and Auntie... didn't leave you any money?]
Maya sighed heavily and replied.
"They did, a few million and two properties, but all the money was taken by my brother to start a club."
"But my brother's club is just a money pit. If he can support himself, that's already something. I never expected him to support me."
