The same employee from yesterday smiled at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss Aurora Waters, back so soon! How can I help you today?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I just... I want to check my account balance,\" she said, trying to sound casual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course!\" The man tapped away at his computer and then nodded. \"Your balance is $7. Would you like a printed receipt?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora nearly jumped for joy. It was real. The system worked, and the money was really in her account.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, that's okay,\" she said, her voice a little shaky from excitement. \"Thank you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora stood there as the bank employee counted her $70.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her heart pounded in her chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'It's alright Aurora, if you don't make the sacrifice now...you will not gain anything in future!' She reassured herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was all the money she had saved over months from doing odd chores, birthday gifts, and leftover change.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, Miss Aurora, your $70 has been deposited. Your new balance is $77,\" the man said, handing her a receipt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stared at the slip of paper, her hands trembling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That number looked so much bigger than she was used to seeing in her balance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It made her stomach twist with a mix of excitement and fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you,\" Aurora whispered and turned to leave the bank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she walked home, she clutched her bank card tightly. Her mind buzzed with ideas.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With $77 in her account, she could test the rebate system in a bigger way. But she knew she couldn't go too crazy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What if it stopped working?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The second question that plagued her mind was...how to use the money efficiently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On returning home, she saw Olivia sitting on the sofa, writing something on the page.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since she was too engrossed, she didn't notice Aurora's arrival at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora walked past Olivia and quickly sneaked a glance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a budget list. Olivia was working on her budget list.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each month, every sibling of hers would prepare a budget list to keep their expenses in check.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was one of the skills they had learned from their parents, to avoid unnecessary expenses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With $20 as their pocket money, it was pretty hard for them to plan out the month.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucas and Aridana occasionally give them an extra $5, which would ease their spending.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora's eyes brightened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She walked over and sat beside Olivia on the sofa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you doing?\" she asked, trying to sound casual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Olivia glanced up, slightly startled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, it's just my budget for the month. I'm figuring out how to split my pocket money. Why? You wanna copy me?\" she teased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora made a face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No! I just... thought it looked interesting.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Olivia smirked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well, you should try it. It helps you plan so you don't waste money. Like, see here.\" She pointed at her list.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have allotted $10 for stationery supplies, $5 for snacks, and $5 for emergencies.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora felt her sister was too wasteful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>$10 for stationery? Tsk...tsk, she, Aurora, can buy stationary, and snacks and even save up for emergencies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora's inner voice mocked her,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'That is because that is all you had!'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, you still haven't handed your lipgloss. Go and bring it back to me.\" Olivia's voice broke Aurora's train of thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora tapped her chin, pretending to think.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wait a second... that lip gloss wasn't bought with my Diamond Mine bank card! If I give it to her, I can't get any rebates from the system. That's such a waste!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She blinked, and instantly agreed,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sure. But here is a problem, I have sold it to one of my friends for $17, I will buy it and give you a brand new one.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Olivia raised an eyebrow. From when does her sister become so obedient?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something wasn't adding up...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as Olivia went back to her budgeting, Aurora dashed to her room and plopped onto her bed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>.......\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next day, Aurora walked into the cosmetics store with her bank card clutched tightly in her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shelves sparkled with colorful lip glosses, and she quickly grabbed two of the prettiest ones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Two lip glosses, please,\" she said, handing her card to the cashier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That'll be $40,\" the cashier said, swiping her card.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora watched the transaction like a hawk, her heart pounding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the receipt was printed, she sighed in relief. She tucked it safely into her bag and hurried home.\u003C\u002Fp>",745,"2026-06-06T04:03:40.232Z",1,"novelbin.me","ed75d8615270c4d6f1aed62d14fdb5cab6320a0b4407485688cf6f8b280b4bdf","born-into-villain-s-family-i-have-a-200-rebate-s-chapter-10","born-into-villain-s-family-i-have-a-200-rebate-s-chapter-8",614,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fborn-into-villain-s-family-i-have-a-200-rebate-s-cover.jpg"]
