Chapter 4

I turned and contacted my mom, giving her my salary card too.

My mom didn't want to take it at first, but I insisted.

"Did you have a fight with Lucas? You two should get along, especially now that you're pregnant."

"No, nothing like that. He's very filial, and he taught me to be filial too. Just take it, I know what I'm doing."

My parents kept my card but used it to buy me lots of nutritional supplements, a crib, and baby blankets.

I also sold my stocks and funds at an opportune time and opened a new account under my mom's name.

I could be carefree when I didn't care, but I could also be meticulous when I did.

Lucas finally noticed that I had changed my account and password.

"You changed your bank card password?"

"Yes, why are you trying to log into my bank account? Aren't we splitting everything?"

Although we had been splitting expenses, we knew each other's account numbers and passwords. I was cautious, worried that if one of us suddenly died or had an accident, the other wouldn't know how much money was left or which bank it was in.

"No reason, just wanted to plan. Thinking of buying a bigger car. It'll be convenient when we have a child."

I nodded. I actually had the same plan.

"Let's wait until I start working again. I'm worried about money these few months."

Lucas keenly noticed my issue.

"Did you sell all your stocks?"

"Yes, I ran out of money."

"What about your salary card?"

"It's with my mom."

Lucas's face changed immediately.

"Why did you give your card to your mom? How are we going to live? I've already covered so much, I can't cover anymore."

"I learned from you. Didn't you give your card to your mom? For several months before, I covered a lot for you too."

Lucas paced back and forth, grabbing his hair, very anxious.

He clearly hadn't planned for this.

After pacing for a while, he finally thought of a solution.

"How about this, from now on, we'll settle accounts every month. No more covering for each other."

See, this is my husband.

Even credit cards are paid off the next month, but my husband wants to settle immediately.
