She splits bills for seven years; he calls her greedy and gifts a ruby to her rival.
A hard-earned promotion goes to an intern named Jessica, leaving the protagonist seeking comfort from Arthur, her boyfriend of seven years. His reply accuses her of fishing for cash, a trauma response from his mother stealing his startup funds. She has spent years splitting every check and returning gifts to prove her loyalty, but a social media post reveals Jessica wearing a pigeon-blood ruby brooch, a top-tier auction piece gifted by Arthur. The realization that her devotion bought contempt drives her to call her father and reclaim her identity as a mafia heiress.
