Chapter 28: Favor
"What course would you like to take in college?" He asked.
She was in front of the mirror brushing her hair while he was on the couch doing some paperwork.
"I wanted to take business and finance. And culinary as well. I wanted to have my own restaurant. But we can’t really afford it." She said.
Then she turned to Andrew.
"Can you sponsor my studies?" She suddenly asked.
He looked at her with a frown face. He wasn’t sure if she was kidding or serious when she asked him. He didn’t answer, straightened his back and leaned on the couch.
"I really wanted to go to college. But it’s too expensive. I gave the remaining money to my parents so they could use it for my sister’s future. I don’t want to be a burden to them. So I was just thinking if you could sponsor me instead?" She continued.
She curled and bit her lips. She knew she was being demanding. They were not married yet and she wasn’t even introduced to the public as his fiance, but she wanted to use this chance to reach her dreams.
He chuckled. "You really amused me sometimes. It was obvious you were using your position to get what you want but I didn’t feel offended. I liked your spirit."
She pulled a long face while staring at him. This is not the time to get embarrassed. If someone could sponsor her to go to college, she could beg that person just to accept it. But it was a relief for her that her fiance was a rich guy.
"So will you sponsor me?" She asked again.
He smiled and looked at her intently.
