When I transform into Marvel, I also want to be the overlord
Chapter 240 Arrangements for the Home Front in the New Semester
"Here, here is your schoolbag. Also, here is 20 US dollars of pocket money. I will give you 20 US dollars every week from now on. You can buy whatever you want to eat."
Maya handed Skye a brand new pink bag and gave her a handful of change.
"Sister, thank you, I like this schoolbag very much." Skye said happily while holding the small schoolbag, but she did not accept the 20 US dollars and shied away: "But I don't need the money. I can just have lunch in the school cafeteria." , weren’t you like this back then?”
Maya just put the money into her little school bag, pinched her cute baby face, and said with a smile: "This is not to buy you food. In school, you will make some children, and you can treat them Drinking soda, eating donuts, that kind of thing, all of that costs money.”
"But isn't 20 US dollars a bit much?" Little Skye was still a little hesitant. Although she had experienced several families, in the past, those "parents" had never given her a penny. Uh, including the unscrupulous mother Jennifer.
"Not much. I work for a big company now, and my monthly salary is tens of thousands of dollars. Think about it, didn't I give you a new laptop? It's worth 1000 dollars. This 20 dollars is really nothing." In this way, when you are in fourth grade, how about I stop giving you pocket money and let you work on your own?" Maya comforted her softly.
Maya is not lying. Her current salary is really more than 3 US dollars. Yes, her salary has been raised, but she can't do it without a raise. Her secretary Julia has become a full-time employee and earns $5 a month. Aunt May is from Queens and drives to Manhattan to work early in the morning every day. On that $5 salary?
Her employees all earn a salary of US$5. Maya wears multiple hats, so of course she has to increase her salary. Moreover, Doom had no intention of objecting to this at all. After all, just by buying arcade game currency, the company earns hundreds of thousands a month.
"Okay, sister, thank you woo woo"
Little Skye finally took the money, lay in Maya's arms and cried softly.
Maya sighed, not saying anything, just stroking her hair gently.
Skye was a smart child. Ever since he could remember, he had been living in various families as an orphan, and was forced to mature mentally quickly. Her sensitive and delicate emotions cannot be felt there. Jennifer, as her mother, is dispensable to her, and Jack, as her father, cannot get close to her. The only person in the family who is truly kind to her is not much older than her. elder sister.
She was very worried these days, fearing that she would be sent away again, but it was not Jennifer and his wife who made her experience the warmth of her parents. To be honest, even though Maya is her biological daughter, Jennifer doesn't have many opportunities to show maternal love. Let's put it this way, for Maya, Jennifer as a mother has been swinging between 59 and 60 points.
It can be seen from this that little Skye must be able to feel Jennifer's affection to be a ghost.
The main thing is that in this era of bad things, this new parents and new family are the least bad. At least the family's material conditions are not bad, the new father doesn't drink or take drugs, he won't beat her, the new mother won't starve her, freeze her, ignore her, or be coldly violent towards her, and neither will this family. Discriminating against her Asian appearance. In particular, there is a big sister who is very kind to her. She not only cares about her, but also cares about her health. Even though her sister is busy with the company, she still takes time every day to help her with her homework and teach her computer programming.
Therefore, the sensible little Skye often contributes his own strength and does things within his ability, such as cleaning the room, and taking care of baby James.
The reason why she cried today was because she heard Maya say that she would be assigned a part-time job after she reaches fourth grade. Well, little Skye is not a workaholic, because she is very happy to be able to work, but, this means that she can stay in this family for at least four years.
And Maya obviously understood what she was thinking. In fact, it was normal for Skye to have such worries. In the United States, very few families with children actually raise an adopted orphan, especially a child with obvious Asian ancestry like Skye. Don’t forget, it’s not decades later. The Cold War has just ended. It’s still the 90s.
Well, Skye's worries are all unnecessary, her name is Skye Hansen now, and neither Jennifer nor Jack has the right to deal with her. And the real head of this family is also President Maya.
