"Alex, let's break up"
In one of the popular cafes
Alex and Mira sat opposite each other. Alex looked puzzled, while Mira had a look of arrogance towards him.
Next to Mira, there was a middle-aged woman sitting with a cold face, looking at Alex with undisguised disdain.
Alex asked the girl in front of him, who was his girlfriend before the breakup request:
"Why do you suddenly want to break up, Mira?"
Alex did not understand what happened and why Mira was asking for a breakup.
Alex and Mira met at the university and were in love for three years.
Certainly, no one can throw away three years of a relationship with someone just like that, suddenly, without any reason.
They continued together even after graduation, even though Alex's salary wasn't high.
Although the salary wasn't high, ranging from $600 to $800 per month, it could be more or less depending on the business's prosperity in the month.
Yet, the money each month was mainly used to buy things for his girlfriend Mira.
Yesterday, the relationship between the two was good, like any boyfriend and girlfriend. There were no problems between them.
But he did not know why the girl he shared his love with suddenly changed overnight.
Mira didn't continue talking but ignored Alex's question.
But the middle-aged woman next to her snorted coldly at Alex:
The genuine version of this novel can be found on another site. Support the author by reading it there.
"Do you still have the nerve to ask why you should break up? You don't even look in the mirror. Tell me, does a poor person like you deserve my daughter?
My daughter is very beautiful and sensitive. How can she stay with you? She will only suffer with a poor person like you."
Alex tried to rush to explain, though he felt some insult; he did not explode in anger at the woman:
"Auntie, although my salary isn't high, I spend almost all my money every month to buy gifts for Mira, feed her, and clothe her. When did she suffer with me?"
"If that's the case, please tell me."
The last words were particularly directed at Mira, who ignored him.
There was a trace of disdain on the middle-aged woman's lips, and she looked mockingly at Alex:
"What's can you buy with your few dollars' salary? Is it worth my daughter continuing her life with you? You can't even provide her with women's necessities.
Easily, the cheapest known brand handbag can cost a few thousand dollars.
How long would it take you to save to buy one for my beloved daughter? Years? And your income is unstable and can be less or more, right?
Besides, my daughter will be a millionaire in the future. Do you think you deserve her, boy? You really need to know your limits, and being with my daughter is not within those limits."
After hearing that, Alex was shocked by what he heard and focused his mind on one word: "Millionaire?"
Mira said from the side: "I bought a lottery ticket the day before yesterday and won 2 million dollars."
Alex was stunned.
She bought a lottery ticket.
She won 2 million dollars.
Now Alex understood the matter.
Mira usually loves buying lottery tickets.
She often dreamed of winning a big prize one day.
But after buying those tickets, sometimes she would win a few dollars or tens of dollars, and often nothing at all.
But this time, she won 2 million dollars.
Alex looked at Mira, who still looked arrogantly at him and hi asked her
"Why didn't you tell me about this?"
Mira didn't hesitate to answer and said with a frown:
"Why should I tell you? Do you want to share half with me or what?"
Mira looked at Alex with a mocking look.
Hearing this, Alex couldn't help but laugh, and now he understood the reason for the breakup.
The reason wasn't just her desire to break up because he didn't achieve her ambitions but her fear of sharing her money with him.
Unexpectedly, in the eyes of Mira and her mother, Alex turned out to be such a person.
A person who might force her to share the money.
Which is certainly contrary to Alex's character. If he was greedy for money, thanks to his handsomeness, he could have easily found a rich girlfriend at the university, and there were many of them.
Unfortunately, at that time, Alex fell in love with Mira at the beginning.
He simply fell in love with her at that time because he felt that Mira wasn't one of those who chased after material things.
But after graduation, the common ground between them became less and less.
As Mira became increasingly materialistic, which weighed heavily on Alex.
... Handbags, clothes, lipstick.
And more.
She needed to buy these things almost every month.
The relationship between two people based on these things could have long ago led Alex to conclude that this relationship had reached its end.
But he was always trying to revive the relationship between the two because he always thought she would change and return to how she was, not out of love for her,
But only because he had gotten used to having this woman in his life, and it wasn't as if he couldn't live without her.
And now she initiates the breakup just because she's afraid of sharing the prize money with him, which will be less than 2 million dollars after taxes.
Alex couldn't help but laugh, but at that moment, a voice suddenly appeared in his mind.
