The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family by Adela

Aside from Stephanie and Mrs. Lewis, Harvey was the first person who gave a toast to Charlie to thank him for the donation that he made to the orphanage. ~i

The other people were all only toasting him, not because of the money that he had donated to the orphanage, but simply because they had found out that he seemed to be a wealthy person. 2

These were two completely different starting points. Those who rushed forward to toast him for the donation that he had made to the orphanage really cared about the orphanage. On the other hand, those people who were simply giving him a toast were only doing so because they wanted to build up a relationship with him. 1

After all, for all these people here today, anyone who could easily donate one million dollars to the orphanage at will would not be any simple or ordinary person. This has already far exceeded their understanding. 2

Charlie and Harvey drank the glass of wine together. Harvey sighed sincerely as he said, "Charlie, I'm really very happy to see how you've turned out today! I've always felt that you were different compared to the rest of us even back then. I don't know why I've always thought that you were a great person who would be promising in the future! I really did not

expect you to turn out doing so well in life!" 9

Charlie smiled indifferently before he said, "When we were both sleeping on the construction site together in the past, we would be very happy if we had enough food to eat every day. When we received our pay every month, we would spend a little more extravagantly. We would buy two more extra dishes and a few bottles of beer and at that time, I thought that it was really a great satisfaction to be able to drink in the shed on the construction site."

The reason why I went to Lancaster is because I thought that I'd be able to make something out of my life. I thought that I would be able to make a fortune and build a good life for myself. In the past few years, I've never thought about actively giving back to the orphanage where I had grown up in. I really feel

we can take care of others. If you can't even take good care of yourself, I don't want you to donate the limited amount of money that you have to the orphanage. So, you have to take good care of yourself first. All of us have already endured a lot of suffering in the past and we have no family nor anyone else that we can depend or rely on. The only person that we can rely on is ourselves. At a time like this, you have to
