Rukelion hadn't gotten as much money from Juliet as he thought he would. Way too many people knew his name for him to have only gotten $37,000!
He was incredibly annoyed by this. Running the calculations, that should barely cover all of his school expenses for the next four years. It wouldn't help Daisy with her goal but at the very least it would keep him out of debt.
This was all going too slowly to the point that he was beginning to wonder if things would ever work for him. Right up until Daisy decided she wanted to be his girlfriend, that is. That changed everything!
He already knew she was afraid of being a mother. They had talked about that a lot both before and after she got pregnant with the baby they lost but she had eventually reached the conclusion that she was excited and looking forward to it despite having no idea what she was doing.
