Riches in Disguise novel Chapter 87

I initially planned to donate 50 thousand dollars, but the highest donation was only 6,000 dollars on the donation list. Donating too much would make me stand out unnecessarily.

"I'll donate 10 thousand then."

That seemed like a decent amount—generous, but not enough to cause a stir.

After completing the transfer, I was about to leave when the lady with the pigtails hurried after me. "Hey, you haven't signed your name yet!"

With a smile, I said, "Nah. Just think of me as a good Samaritan." With that, I walked off.

I had to attend the celebration later, not just to support my dad but also to see who else was donating and helping underprivileged students. People like that were worth getting to know.

However, going alone would be boring, so I thought about who to invite. After some consideration, I called Felicia.

"Are you free later tonight? I could use your help with something."

"I do." For some reason, her voice sounded softer and sweeter than usual.

"Great. Could you come out now? I'd like to take you somewhere first."

I chose to bring her since a charity event like this might make people like Benjamin and Liam, who weren't well-off, feel uncomfortable.

As for Matthew, I didn't even want to consider him. That guy would just bring Isabelle along and display their love the entire time. I'd rather go alone than deal with them.

Once I met up with Felicia, I noticed she had gone back to her usual oversized T-shirt and baggy pants. I couldn't help but laugh.

"What happened to the clothes I bought you? Why aren't you wearing them?"

Felicia awkwardly said, "The tag said they need to be dry-cleaned. That's too expensive. I can't afford dry cleaning."

I didn't know a thing about women's fashion, but my mom's taste was top-tier, even among the social elite. Any brand she would favor was bound to be good.

Sure enough, the moment we stepped inside, Felicia's eyes lit up.

"The clothes here are so beautiful! I've never seen styles like this. Oh, look at this dress! I think I've seen a celebrity wear something like it before."

A saleswoman came over with a smile. "You've got great taste! This dress is indeed the same one a celebrity wore, and it's the last one we have. Would you like to try it on?"

"Well… How much is this?"

Felicia instinctively reached for the price tag, but I quickly grabbed her wrist. "Felicia, I said I'd buy you the clothes. Just focus on trying them on, okay? I'll handle the bill."

She hesitated for a moment but finally nodded with a shy smile after meeting my determined gaze. Holding the dress excitedly, she headed to the fitting room.
