Riches in Disguise novel Chapter 98

"Did they make a mistake?"

"Who's been left out?"

Just as everyone was wracking their brains for an answer, the host spoke, "The seven donors on stage are generous benefactors that have donated over 2,000 dollars! I want to use this opportunity to give special thanks to our top donors, Georgina Miller and Martin Jackson."

Everyone in attendance burst into enthusiastic applause.

Soon, a plain-looking girl with glass and a well-dressed young man, dressed head-to-toe in the latest trend, appeared on stage. The applause only grew louder by the second.

The host had a smile on his face as he continued, "Ms. Georgina Miller, a senior who will be graduating soon, donated all her scholarship funds and her wages for four years. She donated a total of 3,800 dollars. Let's give her a round of applause!"

This time, even I couldn't help but clap in admiration.

She didn't come for wealth. Yet, she was willing to donate the money she earned through her hard work just to help others. This level of kindness is something I couldn't even come close to. She was genuinely an amazing person.

Then, the host added, "Mr. Martin Jackson has actively participated in several charity events ever since his freshman year. He has taken his time to understand the needs of the underprivileged students, going as far as to provide one-on-one support if needed.

"He has donated a whopping amount of 6,000 dollars in this charity event! Let's give him a big round of applause!"

I didn't hesitate to clap as well. Since he had participated in so many charity events and donated this much, he must have been a caring person indeed.

Now that I had a face to put to the name, I considered this time well spent.

A female student sitting behind me shrieked in excitement, "Oh, my gosh. Martin's so hot!"

"Is he? Let's be fair now. Even though he's rich and a good person, he's not exactly a looker."
