Caught in a moment of contemplation, Ariana hesitated, questioning the authenticity of the person's smile. She couldn't determine whether the child in the avatar truly belonged to them.

Thankfully, the person then answered with a simple "Thank you." Feeling a sense of relief, Ariana pressed on with the conversation,

"So, are you learning to cook for your child?"

Their response arrived, "No, I have a chef at home, so I don't need to cook myself."

Uncertain about how to proceed, Ariana decided to share the latest unedited video.

The individual's response was a thumbs-up emoji.

Though still uncertain about their motives, Ariana was surprised the next moment as they transferred twenty thousand dollars to her.

Ariana found herself in a state of shock.

As the day unfolded, the person continued to bestow upon her three hundred thousand dollars. Overwhelmed and almost speechless, Ariana couldn't help but consider that this person didn't place a high value on money and might as well direct their abundance towards charitable causes.

While she didn't voice these thoughts, she returned the funds and messaged, "Thank you for your generosity, but you've already given enough. There's no need to keep sending money.”

While awaiting a reply, Ariana swiftly changed the subject, inquiring, “How old is your child?"

After a while, the person replied, "Five years old."

Feeling relieved that the person didn't send more money, Ariana pressed onward in the conversation.

“What a delightful coincidence, my own child happens to be five years old as well. At this tender age, it's crucial to ensure a balanced diet."

“Okay.” After a moment of contemplation, Holden asked, "Do you have a lot of experience taking care of children?"

Ariana pondered momentarily before replying, “Though my experience isn't extensive, I recognize that caring for children demands unwavering attention.”

Thinking of his daughter, Holden felt a pang of guilt. He typed, “If a father finds himself consumed by work, lacking time for his child, what repercussions might that entail?"

Ariana's gaze dropped as she remained silent for a heartbeat, then an apologetic emoji punctuated her response.

"I'm sorry, certainty eludes me, for I am a single mother."

Holden's lips pursed with a tinge of regret.
