Chapter 91 Hundreds of Tables of Relatives

Donald had been a teacher for decades and was widely regarded as an exceptional educator. He held himself to high moral standards and rarely lost his temper. However, when he did become angry, a mere change in his facial expression was enough to instill fear in people.

With a stern expression, he said, “I am just an ordinary man who doesn’t know how to sugarcoat things. I don’t want to hypocritically talk about how money is merely an external possession.
