Chapter She Outshines 283
Chapter 283
The two-month summer vacation was coming to an end.
The box office of "Boundary Strike", which extended the release time, finally exceeded 800 million dollars and became a grossing movie. Zayn also became the most popular actor this summer.
"High Mountain", which also extended its release time, became a dark horse. Its box office successfully exceeded 160 million dollars and was expected to hit 200 million dollars.
Luna also became the highest-grossing female celebrity in the country.
At the end of August, Luna attended the International Film Festival in Dichester as a judge and guest presenter.
At the award ceremony, she put on light makeup and wore a light green sleeveless dress. Her hair was tied up in a very casual bun with a hairpin. This made her look like a graceful flower that emitted a calm and elegant vitality. It was beautiful. When she went on stage, the applause thundered forth. After the awards ceremony, she was awarded the best outfit.
The netizens all agreed that she was so beautiful that she could warm people's hearts. She exuded a peaceful aura from within and was different from this impetuous world.
Especially the hairpin on her head. There was a crystal clear dewdrop hanging on the hairpin.
Because the dewdrop was so realistic, many people joked that they were worried that the dewdrop would fall.
One netizen pointed out. [This dewdrop hairpin is the work of Maria.]
[Maria's work was originally not famous, but after Miss Yonder proved her innocence online, her "The Angry Bug" series became popular and sold like hotcakes.]
[Miss Yonder Studio took the opportunity to launch the "Dewdrop Series" of Maria. It was very popular. This Dewdrop hairpin was a limited edition of the "Dewdrop Series". It was unique and could not be bought at all.]
Luna said in an interview, "I like the countryside scenery very much. Maria's 'Angry Bug Series' and 'Dewdrop series' are filled with the pure style of nature. I like them very much."
She also posted several photos of her wearing the two accessories on her Twitter.
She was a famous actress! Many brands wanted to hire her to shoot advertisements, but she didn't go. She publicly said that she liked Maria's work. This was definitely extremely powerful publicity for Maria's work.
In addition, Maria's works were not expensive. The price was between 20 dollars and 2000 dollars. Even students could afford it. In an instant, her works were sold out again. Maria was really popular. She became a famous jewelry designer.
Of the Donovan family people who became popular in this summer holiday, in addition to Zayn and Maria, there were also Alaric.
He had been training and had even participated in a tennis competition that was neither high nor low level. He had won the second place.
It didn't sound glorious enough, but the champion of this competition was one of the top ten tennis players in the country. Alaric didn't lose much to the opponent's score.
Therefore, his performance attracted the attention of the tennis world, and he was hailed as a superstar.
When Alaric returned home, he held the food box in his arms and ate the delicious food made by his mother. He looked left and right, and his gaze swept across the entire family's faces.

Chapter 283
After observing for a long time, he walked to the innocent-looking Josie, squatted down, and said with a smile, "Josie, you want to buy candy, toys, and beautiful dresses. Do you need pocket money?" The TV drama tonight was not attractive. Josie was lying on the floor drawing.

Hearing his words, Josie raised her little head and shook her head cutely. She said, "I don't lack pocket money. They gave me a lot of gifts and even secretly gave me pocket money. I have a lot of pocket money now." Alaric coaxed her and said, "Everyone gave you pocket money, but I didn't. I should give you some too, right?"
"No." Josie shook her head. "All four brothers have jobs. Alaric, you earn the least. I can't accept your pocket money."
She thought for a moment and added, "Do you need money? I can give you pocket money."
Hearing this, Alaric only felt shocked. 'I have actually become the one with the lowest income in the family? Even Josie wanted to afford me money?' he thought.
He squeezed out a smile and patted Josie's head. He said, "I was runner-up in the competition and had a lot of prize money. I don't lack money. You can spend your pocket money slowly."
In this competition, he received a prize of 20 thousand dollars. He was so happy.
He couldn't wait to tell his family. They applauded and congratulated him, but that was all.
No one asked him to treat them to a meal. Instead, they treated him to a meal.
He thought, 'It made sense. Jaden and Brandon both ran companies. Zayn was about to become a celebrity. How could he be short of money?
'Although Arthur doesn't run a company, he manages the family's restaurant and helps them manage the family's finances. His income is probably not low.
'As for Athena... If I give Athena pocket money, she will definitely think that I am looking down on her!'
After some thought, he walked to Maria's side and said with a smile, "Maria, you've been working for so long. Shouldn't you consider buying a car?"
Maria nibbled on her snacks as she watched the TV drama with relish. She did not even have the time to look at him. "I do plan to buy a car. I'll buy a good one. Otherwise, I'll embarrass our studio," she said. Alaric was overjoyed. Just as he was about to show off his generosity, he heard Maria say, "My designs are selling well. With the base salary and bonus, it might be about 200 thousand dollars. It's enough for me to buy a car." Alaric was shocked again.
He thought, 'It has only been a summer vacation, but Maria has already earned more than all the money I have earned from competing and working over the years. Could it be that I have become the poorest one in the family?' After some thought, he reluctantly walked to Arthur, who was sitting cross-legged on the sofa and munching on chicken while playing games. He hugged Arthur's neck and said kindly, "Arthur, are you short of pocket money now?" Arthur didn't even look up and replied, "No."
Alaric said, "Haven't you alw
