Chapter 6

"You guys are really loyal to Joshua." I felt a mix of admiration and confusion.

Sure, Joshua had money, but was that really enough to make them fawn over him like this?

Unable to make sense of it, I went online to search for some answers. "Is it common for college students to be so superficial?"

One of the top replies, with over 30 thousand likes, said, "Yes, it's pretty common. For one, smart people started building networks for future jobs. And second, those who get into good universities usually have high ambitions, so it's natural for them to gravitate towards the powerful."

I scoffed at that reasoning. Building connections and following the strong? That's what led me to use my allowance to start a foundation to support students in need.

"The surgery alone will be around three hundred thousand dollars, but with other expenses, it could go up to four hundred thousand dollars."

I had that amount saved, so I replied without hesitation, "I'll visit the hospital tomorrow and personally cover the surgery. There's no need to go through the foundation for this."

"Yes, sir. I'll send you the address and room number."
