The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 992

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 i n 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. W e would buy two more extra dishes and a few bottles o f 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."

After a pause, Charlie continued speaking, "Because of that experience, I don't expect much materially now. Even if I'm eating better food, wearing better clothes o r living in a better house, that doesn’t really make much of a difference to me." 2

Harvey nodded earnestly before he said, "Brother, I understand what you are trying to say. We were both working at the same place and earning the same amount of money at that time. However, I would always save up all of my hard-earned money for myself because I had always been hoping that I would be able to turn my life around with this capital. On the other hand, you've always donated all of your hard-earned money to the orphanage. At that time, I had already felt that I could never be compared to you in this life because you're so much better than I am!" 3

After that, Harvey sighed softly before he laughed and said, "Facts have clearly proven that I'm really nothing at all." 8

Charlie replied solemnly, "Brother, do not undervalue yourself at any time. As long as you can act in a way that is worthy of the world, worthy of your conscience, and worthy of yourself, then you'll still be a very happy person even if you do not have a lot of material possessions in your hands."

After that, Charlie continued speaking, "Just look around in this world. How many wealthy people have made their money by doing bad things and completely disregarding their own conscience? How many people are deliberately thinking of ways to steal, take, cheat, or occupy things from other people? There are seriously too few people who have a clear conscience!" 2
