"Mr Young, Sophie… Thank you for today. I can't thank you guys enough with just this but, please don't refuse."
Before parting ways, Ruby handed the pair of uncle and niece a white envelope. Inside the envelope was the cash prize they had been rewarded for ranking second.
The money was decent, but far from enough to purchase even the cheapest Hermez bags, much to Daniel's dismay.
After Ruby's soft coaxing, the boy agreed to keep the trophy and handed the cash prize over to Aaron and Sophia as a token of gratitude.
"You can use it to buy Sophie the latest Barbie House series. I heard it has only been released today and is limited in stock…"
Ruby secretly winked at Sophia, whose eyes visibly lit up in that instant.
"Uncle, uncle! Let's go! You can't go back on your promise!"
Sophia excitedly tugged his arm, swinging it back and forth.
Aaron was embarrassed himself. He wanted to refuse, but his niece was giving him no face at all.
