"Think of it as a special account just for desserts," Bryan explained, giving in to Eileen's sweet tooth.

"You didn't just put a measly two hundred bucks on this, did you?" Eileen asked, raising an eyebrow. "There are still five months to go until the baby comes, and those fancy desserts are not cheap. Two hundred won't last long." "The minimum membership fee for this place is two thousand dollars," Bryan said.
Eileen's eyes widened. "Wow! So how much did you top up? Five thousand?" "Two thousand," Bryan said, carefully arranging the desserts on the counter.
