Chapter 6 Charity Dinner


    Amanda did not know what a bad ce she was taken to, and Darren had gone directly. She had to


    crossed the route between the bus for more than an hour, and she did not know where she was.


    "Oh my God! Did I waste my whole afternoon on the bus?" Amanda was on the verge of being freaked


    out when she hailed the fifth bus. As soon as she stood in front of the bus, she suddenly saw the


    familiar campus. On a whim, she got off the bus. It was the first middle school she went to before she


    went abroad. The gate of the school had been expanded and the buildings in the school were all new.


    As She was about to step inside, the green vines were still covering it shady surface while the air was


    chilly under them. A woman teacher who was passing by with a book in her hands looked at her


    curiously and asked, "Are you Amanda?"


    "Em?" Then she looked at the woman whom she had met a long time ago. She called, "Maggie, is that


    you?"


    "Oh my God! It''s you, Amanda!" The female teacher covered her mouth with excitement.


    They sat at the coffee shop outside the school. Maggie was her desk mate. When she went abroad,


    she was in a hurry and couldn''t contact her. She didn''t expect that she would be a teacher in a


    grade one after so many years.


    "At that time, I was very worried about you. I went to your home to look for you. Your uncle told me that


    you had gone abroad, but he didn''t give me your phone number. I thought that I couldn''t find you."


    Maggie sighed when she recalled the past, but then she smiled. "Fortunately, you''re back. You''re still


    so beautiful, but why are you here?"


    "I have just returned from abroad and lost my way," Amanda smiled sheepishly.


    Maggie still had sses to attend. She told Amanda the route, left her phone number and hurried away.This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    When Amanda came back home, it was already seven o''clock in the evening. The servants had


    already prepared the dinner. Since Darren wouldn''te back for dinner, she was at ease eating


    alone.


    When she got up at midnight to drink some water, she found that the lights in the living room were still


    on. Darren was sitting on the sofa in the living room and talking to someone in theputer. When he


    was at home, he changed his clothes into a light coffee brown house clothes. He didn''t look as arrogant


    and cold as he usually was in the day. His face was covered by the warm apricotmp, which made


    him look warm and sweet.


    "There''s a charity dinner the day after tomorrow. Get you prepared," he began


    "Me? The party and the people there should be prepared by Rose." She couldn''t believe her ears.


    "Who do you think you are? You scared? "


    "I don''t care what you do as long as you are not in front of me and don''t interrupt me." Amanda


    proposed.


    "Amanda, you must attend the dinner party. Don''t ever let me hear these craps again." Then he stood


    up, closed theptop and went upstairs directly.


    Before the dinner, Amanda was picked up to the salon to have a haircut by people sent by Darren.


    When Nancy saw the Secretary of the presidente to pick up her, she didn''t dare to stop him. But


    she was so unreasonable to ask her to finish her work that day.


    Then he drove the car to the hotel where the party was to be held. The Secretary to the CEO said to


    her in a serious tone, "Mr. Darren has something urgent to deal with. Please wait here."


    Amanda pursed her lips. She only pped her hands when Darren wasn''t here.


    "I didn''t expect you toe here, Amanda," A girl in a light purple dress came over with a ss of


    champagne in her hand. She was no stranger to this girl. She was Uncle''s eldest daughter Susie. She


    had met her on her wedding. But at that time Susie only had eyes for Darren, not her elder sister.


    "Where is Mr. Darren?" Susie looked around and asked," why doesn''t Mr. Darrene here?"


    "How would I know?" Amanda chuckled, "thank God he didn''te."


    Susie looked at her with disdain, "although you''re only a bargaining chip of our Cheng family, you


    should also realize that if you piss Mr. Darren off, we can''t help you."


    "That''s none of your business." Amanda said.


    Susie sneered," You are just a girl brought up at a low price by my family. Don''t think you be a rich


    man just because you married Mr. Darren."


    "Wee to attend the charity party organized by Mr. Noah, the CEO of H country. The purpose of this


    party is to raise money to donate charities to students in mountainous areas..." The host of the party


    said.


    Susie came over holding ady''s arm. She snorted and said, "Mom, Amanda is here too."


    Mrs. Li nodded and said arrogantly, "Amanda, although you''ve be Mrs. Amanda, you''re still a


    member of our Cheng family. Now that Mr. Darren doesn''te, you can sit with us. Otherwise, you''ll


    make a fool of yourself and our family."


    She didn''t want to stir up trouble and took a seat with the Li family. People around the Li family looked


    at her. They were all acquaintances. This was Mrs. Amanda, Mr. Darren''s wife, but Mr. Darren didn''t


    come. It seemed that the news that Mrs. Amanda was disliked was true.


    It was reported on the stage that how much a group had donated. Someone said with a smile, "Mrs.


    Amanda, since you havee here for Mr. Darren, I''m sure you must have made a generous offer."


    Susie chuckled, "you are so bad. It would be nice of Amanda toe here. Don''t trying to get her


    things."


    "It''s no big deal. All the food and drinks at this dinner party need money. Who has the nerve toe


    here for free? "


    When the people in the audience were giving a speech about the process of raising money, Amanda


    turned a deaf ear to what they said.


    After the introduction, Amanda made a salute and everyone looked at her in surprise.


    "Mrs. Amanda, what do you want to say?" After making preparation, Mrs. Andrea smiled politely.


    "I think it''s a great idea. I''m deeply touched by what I''ve seen. I thought it''s just an ordinary dinner party


    to donate some money to express our sympathy. But I am willing to join and contribute myself to it," she


    added


    As she spoke, she walked up to the stage and took out an exquisite box from her bag before the


    microphone. She opened the box and saw a jade bracelet, which was glittering and translucent under


    the light. It was a rare item at first nce, making people marvel at it.


    She took out the bracelet and said, "This is a gift for me from Grandpa Nichs. I''m willing to donate it.


    The money gained by the auction will be used as fund."


    The Secretary led Darren in. When he just entered the room, he heard what Amanda said. With a sh


    of surprise in his eyes, he stood still.


    "This is too expensive. Mrs. Amanda''s jade bracelet was bid at an auction of Cary Su a few years ago.


    I remember the price for the bracelet was two hundred and fifty thousand dors." Mrs. Andrea was a


    little shocked.


    "It''s just an ornamented stone in my hand." I once took part in the school n in Britain for education in


    Africa or India. I know kids are eager for education. If they can learn something, then it''s meaningful for


    me to donate it. People should think the same with me. "


    In themplight, Amanda, wearing a long, fragrant dress, smiled quietly and naturally. She had put on


    some makeup and looked very simple without any jewelry. Compared with other distinguisheddies


    around, she seemed toe here for charity.


    All the reporters were keenly aware of Amanda, and kept shing lights.
