To Spoil or Not to Spoil: A Brother’s Dilemma
After taking over his father’s business, our protagonist is faced with a tough decision: should he continue to spoil his sisters like his dad did, or teach them the value of hard work? While he’s willing to help them in times of need, he refuses to fund their luxurious lifestyles. This has led to a strained relationship with two of his sisters, while the youngest seems to understand his stance. The real question remains: is he being a responsible brother or just plain cruel?
