In an apartment.
"Come in, the house is a little small and messy."
MAX took out the key to open the door and greeted Caroline to enter the house.
"It's great here..."
When the light came on, Caroline looked around and gave a decent answer.
As for the smallness, of course it can't be compared with her family's manor house, and it even feels not as big as her changing room.
As for the chaos, all kinds of drawing paper were put a lot at will, and obviously there was no servant to take care of it all the time.
But as a top student of the Wharton School of Business, now experiencing the weightlessness of falling from heaven to hell, she naturally lost her interest in Versailles casually.
"How much is the rent here?"
Caroline was trained by her dad since she was a child, and it was automatically turned on after her dad was arrested.
"rent?"
MAX shook his head: "I really don't know this."
"You do not know?"
Caroline was surprised at first, and then suddenly said: "Did Adam rent it for you?"
"No."
MAX flung his things and lay down on the sofa: "I just bought this, so I don't know what the rent is here."
"You bought it?"
Caroline looked at the two-bedroom and one-living room. When she came in, she found that the environment in this community was not bad, and the location was OK. Such a two-bedroom and one-living house could not be bought without hundreds of thousands.
"correct."
Seeing that Caroline was still standing there, MAX got up and asked Caroline to sit down: "What would you like to drink?"
"Water is good."
Caroline ran around all night and was very thirsty, but she still couldn't help but said: "Why do you have the money to buy or rent a house? Wouldn't it be more profitable to use this money as an investment?"
"I don't understand investment."
MAX took two bottles of water from the refrigerator and handed it to Caroline: "People always have to live in their own house. It doesn't cost much anyway."
"..."
Caroline felt a familiar, unfamiliar and familiar taste.
For her now penniless and may not even be able to find a job, the hundreds of thousands who used to be not enough to host a party are already a number that she looks up to.
"Is painting so profitable?"
Caroline was incredible.
She may not know much about common people's prices, but she still knows the basic situation.
After all, when you go to Wharton School of Business, what you learn is how to better exploit and beat the workers and the working spirit, so as to make more money.
It is always necessary to know how much money the beater should get.
Otherwise, if you give too much, isn't it driving up labor costs? It is to be resisted by the capital alliance.
"It's okay."
MAX shrugged and said: "It's mainly because Peppa Pig sells well. Adam gave me more bonuses. I don't know how to invest. Money depreciates in the bank. It's better to buy a house."
Emmm.
Adam did not bring MAX for investment like Juno and Heather.
The reason is very simple.
Like every black-hearted boss who squeezes employees, Adam and MAX now have this relationship.
Peppa Pig has such a big interest.
As the main creator of MAX, Adam naturally didn't want her to become so rich that she just lay down and couldn't move.
What Adam hates most is such a salted fish!
Of course, Adam did not treat her wrongly either.
She went to school for four years. The first two years were at a community college. With Adam's encouragement, she quickly stood out after hard work, and then transferred to the University of the Arts, where she studied for another two years.
In the United States, the two years of community colleges can be added to the credits of regular universities, so after two years at the University of the Arts, she received a bachelor's degree.
During these four years, she worked part-time and part-study, while reading, she began to draw Peppa Pig.
After graduation, Peppa Pig was officially published, Adam gave a full bonus, and MAX realized the life of a house, a car, and a ticket lightly.
But apart from this house and that small broken car, the bulk of MAX's expenditure turned out to be for Adam.
Thousands or tens of thousands of things, it really doesn't hurt to spend it at all.
Adam persuaded him many times, and for this reason, she often complained that she was used to sticking money and sticking to it, and it was uncomfortable to stick to it.
Every time she hugged Adam in her arms, she said triumphantly: "A sugarbaby who doesn't want to maintain sugardaddy is not a good sugarbaby. You should take care of it in advance, and I will support you!"
So Adam didn't give MAX bonus anymore, he saved it directly for her, and planned to give it to her in a few years, and all the savings would be spent on him.
"What a pity."
Caroline turned her mind.
It wasn't that she wanted to be bad, but the education she received made her instinctively exclude that after having the first pot of gold, instead of making money for money, she was all in one place.
This is poor thinking.
"Your sofa?"
As soon as Caroline sat down, she noticed that the sofa was broken, and said in surprise: "Why don't you change it?"
"It's changed several times."
MAX shrugged and said, "But Adam was bad when he came, and later he simply didn't bother to change."
"..."
Caroline stagnated, she didn't know what to say, and she didn't even know if she should continue to sit.
At this time, MAX has turned on the TV.
On the TV, it is naturally Martin Channing’s breaking news.
MAX changed several units in a row, all of them.
"No need to change."
Caroline said firmly: "This is expected. I also want to see what the public opinion is like."
"you sure?"
MAX kindly reminded: "Your father has broken the sky this time, no one will say good things to him."
"It's ok."
Caroline straightened up and stared at the TV: "I can bear it."
A few minutes later.
"Turn off, turn off!"
Caroline can no longer stand the creative abuse of her father on TV, which completely broke her imagination.
Can you curse like this?
"I told you already."
MAX shrugged, looked at Caroline, and said seriously: "It seems that you really don't know anything about the life of the bottom people, where is this?"
"This is how life at the bottom is like?"
Caroline panicked.
"This is not even one-tenth of a million."
MAX looked at the princess who was once aloof with sympathy: "Let me tell you this, you are now like the maid who was alone at Schwarzenegger's house at night."
"What do you mean?"
Caroline was puzzled.
"You are going to be ravaged by this real society."
MAX is weird.
"..."
Caroline was confused by MAX's words.
What kind of slang?
Why is it so vulgar!
"Well, I guess you have been busy for a day today, so hurry up and go to sleep."
Seeing that Caroline was in no mood to appreciate the classic slang she learned when she was on the ground floor, MAX greeted: "This is a guest room. You can live here. If you have anything, think about it tomorrow.
do not worry.
Human adaptability is very strong.
Life is like that.
Can't resist, just lie down and enjoy.
Soon you will be able to have fun.
This is life.
Trust me.
I am an absolute expert in this area! "
"Thank you, MAX."
Caroline couldn't laugh or cry but still very grateful for MAX's acceptance and comfort.
Without comparison, there is no harm.
Those so-called boyfriends and girlfriends in the past are not as kind as a stranger who has only one side.
If this is the life of the bottom people.
Then she might be able to accept... for a while.
Not bad!
She was still a little confident in her heart.
She is still young and a top student at the Wharton School of Business. She has also inherited her father's business talents. After this period of hardship, she will definitely stand up.
Caroline Channing, you can!
Thinking of this, she smiled and fell asleep.
