Chapter 983
When Max heard that Charlie was going to donate one million dors to the orphanage, he naturally
did not believe it at all. He sneered before he said, "Charlie, you’re really good at bragging. You’re
actually saying that you can donate one million dors to the orphanage? You''re really trying hard to
keep up your appearances to cover up your own predicament. Can you even afford to bring out a
million dors?" 10
Charlie replied lightly, "Since I''ve said it, I''ll definitely honor my words. I won''t act like you and find a
ce t o get into a car ident just to go back on my words!" s
When Max heard Charlie’s words, he knew that Charlie was deliberately ridiculing him. When he
thought about the car crash earlier, he really hated Charlie to the core. 2
If he had known that all of these would be happening, he would not have gone back on his words at
all. It would have been better for him to donate his car.
After all, it would be better for himpared to the situation now. 1
Just look at the heavy losses that he had suffered!
However, Max did not believe that Charlie could afford to donate one million dors to the
orphanage. 9
Therefore, he sneered before he said, "Don''t think that I don''t know your predicament now. You are
just a live
-in son-inw who is living off his wife. How would you possibly be able to get so much money? Are
you going to rob a bank?” 1
At this time, Scott also chimed in to help Max." Charlie, you should stop trying to impress others by
feigning and pretending to be someone that you’re not. What do you stand to gain by being so
pretentious anyway? You should just act within your own capabilities. You shouldn''t make yourself
bankrupt just because you''re trying to impress us. After that, you''ll just me us for it." 3
Charlie smiled indifferently before he said, "You don’t need to care if I''m going to rob a bank or do
anything else. No matter what it is, I''ll still be able to donate one million dors to the orphanage. On
the other hand, if I can donate one million dors, how much will you be able to donate then?” 2
Maxughed before he said, "If you can afford to donate one million dors, then I''ll be able to
donate ten million dors! Anyway, who wouldn''t be able to brag about this, right?” 4
At this time, most of the people sitting around the table wereughing loudly.

This was because all of them thought that Charlie was simply trying to save his own face. 6
They would actually have believed it if Charlie said that he was going to donate eighty thousand or
one hundred thousand dors. After all, his wife was still driving a BMW anyway. Therefore, his
family was
obviously not short of money. 3
However, it seemed a little unrealistic for Charlie to say that he was going to donate one million
dors. After all, he would not even be able to raise that amount of money even if he sold off his
wife''s BMW.
Among these people, the only ones who really trusted Charlie were Mrs. Lewis, Stephanie, and also
his wife ire, s
Mrs. Lewis and Stephanie both knew and understood Charlie’s character and personality very well.
He would never say something that he would not be able t o do.
As for ire, she was already used to it. 5
After all, Charlie would always be able to earn one or two million dors by looking at someone''s
Feng Shui for them. Therefore, she believed that it would be a breeze for Charlie to donate one
million dors to the orphanage. 1
At this time, ire asked Charlie in a low voice," Charlie, are you secretly going behind my back to
look at other people''s Feng Shui again?" 9
Charlie nodded before he smiled and said, “Yes. It’s Aunt Hall''s son, Paul! Didn''t he move hisw
firm to Aurous Hill? I went to take a look at his Feng Shui for him because he asked me to." 4
ire asked embarrassedly, "You''re even cheating our close acquaintances? Is that appropriate?" i
"How can you possibly say that I am cheating him?" Charlie replied earnestly, "We were both willing
parties!"
ire felt very helpless and she could only ask, "How much did you ask from him?"
Charlie smiled as he said, "One million dors."
ire rubbed her temples as she said, "You’re so wicked...you had actually asked for so much
money from our own close acquaintance..."
In fact, ire did not know that Paul actually gave Charlie ten million dors in total. 3
However, he was paying Charlie the ten million dors in two instalments.
The first check was for one million dors.
He would write him another check for nine million dors. 6
Charlie had originally thought that he would not mind it at all even if he had to donate the entire ten
million dors to the orphanage.
