NovelEnglishRobert looked at Rose. "My sister's nis Ivy, but she went missing." "Oh," Rose said. "I have a little sister, too. She's my best friend. Her nis Irene." Robert glanced at the hairclip on Rose's hair and said, "That's my older sister's hairclip. She might get upset if you use her things!" He paused, before continuing, "I will buy you a pretty hair clip next time, okay?" Rose beamed. "Sure. But I have no money so I can't buy you anything in return." "I have money. A lot of it. I can give you sof it," he said, before taking Rose's hand and pulling her to his room.
The two children formed a bond swiftly without the help of the adults, and Avery gasped as she watched them disappear into Robert's room.

"He isn't that nice to other girls if I remember correctly," Elliot said.
He had heard from Mrs. Cooper of a twhen Robert had fought a girl over a toy, and Robert surely had not been as generous as he was earlier.
"Yeah, Robert isn't that nice to other girls, but he can be very generous when it comes to girls that he knows," Mrs. Cooper said and got ready to go check on Robert and Rose. "You can start eating first if you are hungry. I will check on the kids." "I'll eat after Layla comes back." Avery wanted to see the children as well, so the two walked toward Robert's room.
Before they reached the door, they saw Robert and Rose step out of the room happily, each holding a piggy bank.
"Mommy, I gave one of the piggy banks to Rose." Robert had over a dozen piggy banks which he had filled with the pocket money he had accumulated over the years. The one he had given Rose was full of money.

"I won't take it back! I have others! If she likes them, I can give her a few more," Robert said seriously.
Knowing that the piggy bank contained real money, Rose said, "One is enough. Thank you, Robert." "No need to thank me. My dad has a lot of money. If I run out of money, my dad will givemore," Robert said carelessly. Mrs. Cooper could not help but chuckle.
Though amused, Avery knew that Robert's ideas when it cto money were rather warped, as he had been thoroughly spoiled by Elliot She turned around and went back to Elliot. "Elliot, did you tell our son something like you will give him more money if he runs out of money?" "Why are you asking? Is he spending money on something? He is only a kindergartener, what could he possibly buy?" "Why did he say you would give him more money if he runs out?" Avery asked.
Elliot thought about it. "He used to cling ontoall the tand tried to keepfrom going to work. I told him that I needed to work to earn money, and when he askedwhy I needed to earn money, I said that needed the money to buy his formula and toys and that working was the only way I can earn money, and I can't buy all those things without money... I think I did mention something along the line of... I work to earn money for him..." "Don't say things like that to him again. I don't want him to grow up to be someone with no ambition, and who spends his life relying on his parents." ŚwElliot chuckled. "He was just saying that. He might not even remember that after a while." "Why not? Kids have great memory. Just don't say things like that in front of the kids again. We have to raise them to be strong and independent." Robert was walking toward them when he stumbled and fell.
When Avery heard her son yelling, she hurried over and helped him up.
