It was early in the morning. Well, if 10 AM could still be called early—especially considering Daniel had slept on the rooftop the night before.
With half-open eyes, the first thing he did was check his phone.
When he saw the deposit notification had finally arrived, he gave a satisfied smile.
"Finally." He let out a relaxed sigh and stood up, stretching a bit to warm up his body.
Then he glanced at his bank account again.
The numbers on the screen showed an amount he had only dreamed of until a few weeks ago. With peace of mind, he headed downstairs. The house was quiet—Liana and Alice were still asleep.
He quickly made himself a sandwich—something between eggs and whatever was left in the fridge.
"Mom, Alice. I'll be busy for a while. Take care of yourselves. Oh, and I transferred some money to your account. Spend it, yell at me, whatever—doesn't matter."
Before leaving, he left a note on the table.
