CHAPTER 221: THE SECOND HALF OF SENTENCE CHOKED IN HER THROAT

He was especially surprised to hear that some big leaders were also coming.

Each of the other shareholders in the meeting room was also wide-eyed.

No way, huh?

They had been speculating that the Levin Family might not be doing too well financially these days.

Now that the media and leaders were here, he didn’t do anything illegal or criminal, did he?

Shareholders went crazy.

"Finn Levin, what on earth is going on here? How did the media and those big shots come?!"

The shareholders finally couldn’t pretend anymore and raged out.

Finn looked at them coldly. But did not answer.

After all, he didn’t know what these people were coming for either.

"Lisa, come with me."

Dropping a few words, he left the conference room straight away.

Only Lisa White was the one he asked.

But these old shareholders still followed shamelessly.

As they followed to the door of another VIP room and saw the faces of the characters coming from the room through the doorway, they almost fainted from fear!

"What, what, what is going on... this, this, this... how did they come to our company?"

Although Levin Group was indeed very prominent in Hiltonan, they still almost fainted in shock when they saw the faces of the big shots inside the door.

"Finn Levin won’t have committed some serious crime this time!"

*

On the other hand, Finn was in the VIP room, looking calm and polite, but he was actually full of confusion.

Lisa White, on the other hand, was outright stunned and could barely even pick up the words.

"Hello... Hello... Hello Editor-in-Chief...

"Mr. Levin, the huge amount you donated for the poor children in the mountains this time has been included in the accounting, and will soon reach the local children."

Contributions?

Finn was a bit confused.

He didn’t donate.

But this kind of thing was all very rigorous.

And the fact that all these big names were here means that it was, indeed, right to donate in his name.

He maintained his composure and said, "...Is that so?"

"Right." The editor-in -chief of Hiltonan Newspaper laughed, "To be honest, the amount you donated this time was quite shocking to many of us, after all, it was in your personal name, not your company’s, and entrepreneurs who donate such a large amount of money at once in their personal names are few and far between inland."

So, how much money did he "donate"?

"So we want to give you a special interview to chronicle your journey for this."

Finn silenced.

*

After an hour.

Finn came out of the meeting room.

Other people out there were shocked.

When people heard that Finn had donated so much money to the mountains by himself, and was even interviewed by the media, they almost passed out.

"Holy, how much is this?? Did I add 5 zeros after that?

"Who was it who said before that Mr. Levin was so poor that he sold his kidney? That much money is enough to open another Levin Group!"

"Mr. Levin is really rich...those partners who withdrew their capital should be crying this time! Hearing the rumors, they all thought the Levin Family was going to bankrupt, who knew that the money he donated with his hand could buy several of their companies!"

Over the next few days, the news of Finn’s huge record-breaking donation dominated the headlines of newspapers!

Such a young, handsome, wealthy man who was also so passionate about charity instantly became popular.

Not only that, there were also many people online found out the previous Finn in the student days, with some great academic records and other stories. One of which was that when he was studying in Abari, he once won many other countries’ academic tops and became the light of the nation.

In short, the Levin Family’s stock and market value had instantly doubled several times! Those shareholders and investors who originally listened to the rumors and betrayed Finn Levin all cried and regreted.

However, Finn was the only one who knew all this well.

The money, it wasn’t donated by him.

It was instead -

Yvonne.

...

It was common for businesses to reach as big as the Levin Family to do charity.

Finn did charity every year as well, which was not an uncommon thing.

What was rare was the amount of this donation!

To be honest, Finn was shocked at first.

For this sum of money, which was not a small sum, not only for him but also for the Taylor Family.

Even for Zachary, or any business in the world, it was not a small amount of money!

Where did Yvonne get so much money?

*

Lord Villa.

Zachary had been away on business these days.

It was not far, and he would be back in a few days. But it was just because he wasn’t there, Yvonne felt bored and lonely staying in this villa every day.

So Yvonne had been staying at home almost every day for a week now.

The maid looked at it and persuaded, "Madam, Mr. Leinster is away on a business trip and the two kids are off to school, you can’t stay at home all day, can you? At least go out and have some fun."

"Hum...

Yvonne nodded, but she hid her embarrassment in her heart.

Went out and played, she wanted to!

It was just that... she didn’t have any money!

One needed money everywhere!

She had to pay for a taxi or the gas if she drove. Not to mention shopping, she even had to pay for a cup of coffee or tea!

Thinking of this, Yvonne touched her blanket pocket and did not go out.

After all, she really didn’t have a dime on her right now, while she didn’t dare to tell her parents and Zachary either.

Staying at Lord Villa, food, drink, housing and transportation were all taken care of by the villa’s butler. No need to spend money either.

So Yvonne rested for half a month and did not try to get up and cheer up.

Until one day, she got irritated.

"Mommy, I want ice cream!"

Yvonne drove to the kindergarten to pick up her son and daughter, and when she was leaving the school gate, her daughter suddenly pointed to a stall on the roadside and said.

"Ahem ..." Yvonne glanced at the ice cream truck and said with a smile, "Don’t eat ice cream in winter."

"I want to!"

"... We got this in our house."

"The ones at home don’t look as good as this one! This one’s an ice-cream cone! I’m tired of eating

Yvonne replied, "... Mom didn’t bring any money today."

"Oh... that’s fine."

Angela was quite sensible and knew that her mother didn’t have any money with her, so she didn’t make any more noise.

Only to be dragged fondly past the ice cream truck by my mom.

As it turned out, the ice cream truck showed up again the next day after school.

Angela asked, "Mommy, did you bring money today?"

Yvonne said, "... No."

Angela was speechless.

Day three.

Finally, the ice cream truck was gone.

Yvonne was finally relieved.

She walked out with her son and daughter, only to hear a yell at the kindergarten door.

"Marshmallow! Pink marshmallow! Would you like one, little girl!"

Angela loved marshmallows the most, with one look at a marshmallow, her eyes shone!

"Yes, yes, yes, yes!"

Yvonne asked, "... How much is it?"

The vendor said, "Three dollars."

Yvonne was like, "What???"

She touched the one dollar she had found in Angela’s piggy bank before she left the house and she was helpless.

"An ice cream is only one dollar, why are you selling a marshmallow for three?"

The vendor was very arrogant, "You can all afford to go to this kind of kindergarten for several tens of several thousand a month," he looked at the two children to her left and right, "and you got money for a second child, will you be short of this one dollar?"

She could tell that the vendor had taken advantage of the fact that the parents of this kindergarten were rich and did this deliberately.

"Angela, how about...

Yvonne had brought money today, but really didn’t think it would actually not be enough.

She didn’t finish her sentence, but as a result, she turned her head and saw Angela teary-eyed little face.

The second half of sentence choked in her throat at once!

...

What was she thinking?

She actually donated all the money she had in the name of Finn to prove her love for Zachary!

As a result, by now, she couldn’t even afford to buy marshmallows when her daughter wanted one!

She was a mother!

How could she not even meet such a simple request from her daughter?

Although Angela didn’t argue, her tears, at once, were like a flashlight to Yvonne!

Thinking of this, Yvonne’s heart struck out and directly took off a bracelet from her hand. Give it to that vendor.

"I didn’t have enough money with me today, so since my daughter wants one, would it be okay to use this bracelet for it?"

The vendor took a look at the bracelet, which was shiny and golden, and it was not a vulgar product.

He also knew that rich people didn’t necessarily carry much cash on them, but what they did have on them, that was definitely all very good and valuable.

Such a precious string of bracelet for a marshmallow?

The vendor froze for a moment, and in the next second, he took the bracelet in Yvonne’s hand and immediately made marshmallows.

Like he was afraid she would regret it, he made three marshmallows as fast as he could!

It was so big! It was bigger than Yvonne’s head! It was almost half the size of the two kids’ bodies!

Two pink ones and one blue one.

Two pink ones for Yvonne and Angela, and blue one for Daniel.

The vendor was so happy, "Hey, pretty girl, three marshmallows, the biggest one has a lot of syrup!"

Angela was also shocked, "Wow, what a big marshmallow! It’s as big as the moon!"

When Yvonne saw her daughter’s happy smile, her heart also felt relieved and happy from the bottom of her heart.

Fancy clothes and jewels, even if they all added up, could not compare to the happy and contented smile of her daughter at this moment.

*

In the red car.

Yvonne drove the car with a beautiful musical tune playing on the stereo.

Sunset, dusk, avenue.

The red car sped down the orange and red splashed highway against the setting sun.

As she drove, the car was haunted by the woman’s beautiful voice.

The afterglow of the orange sunset spilled over every corner of the car, shining on the woman’s long, curled eyelashes.

There was Yvonne’s pink marshmallow sticking out of the side of the steering wheel, and in the back seat of the car, two kids with a marshmallow in each hand, talking and laughing.

"Brother, is the blue one good?"

"It’s not bad, try it."

"Ow - "

"Is it good?"

"I prefer mine."

"Haha, then you eat more of your own then."

"Hmph."

As Yvonne watched the two cute babies interact in the rear-view mirror, she drove without candy, but her heart was sweeter than the candy she ate!

That was right, she couldn’t be upset anymore!

Although she had no money, for the sake of her children, even if it meant doing the hardest and lowest level of work, at the very least, she wanted to meet her children’s lives...

*

Yvonne went home and made a resume overnight, then sent it to more than 20 part-time jobs respectively.

Although she now not only had four hotels under her name, but was also the management of Shining and the Taylor Group, there was still at least half a month before her salaries.

This half month, she couldn’t live like today, when she didn’t even have three dollars to buy marshmallows.

So, she was going to get a job that paid a daily wage.

This way, some basic needs of life could be met.

At least, when the child had any requirements, she would not be unable to meet even the basic satisfaction.
