I felt a deep and heavy discomfort after George took a large portion of my money.
It wasn't just a fleeting financial loss, but a shock I couldn't easily get over.
The question kept echoing in my mind insistently: how could he ask such an amount from a student who had barely begun to make his way? I felt that there was a clear injustice in this, as if my situation or circumstances didn't matter to him at all.
Even after my transition to this world, and despite the fact that the Taylor family is considered one of the wealthiest in the Athena Empire, the money I had paid was not small by any measure.
The problem wasn't just in my ability to pay, but in my sense of the value of the money itself.
From the expression of surprise on George's face, I realized that he thought what he took wasn't much, and he was probably fully convinced that his request was reasonable.
