Riches in Disguise novel Chapter 102

"Is this how rich people talk?"

"Donating ten thousand dollars like it's nothing? My living expenses for three years don't even come close to that!"

"So this is what it means to be a wealthy kid. I can't even imagine living like that."

Hearing the murmurs, I felt my cheeks flush with embarrassment. I wasn't trying to flaunt my wealth, but I couldn't exactly pretend to be poor in this setting either. It would feel disrespectful to the other students and the recipients of the charity.

The host sighed and remarked, "It seems Mr. White comes from a rich family. Yet, there are plenty of wealthy people who don't donate. Can I ask why you chose to do it anonymously?"

His questions were overwhelming.

I gave an honest answer. "To be fair, I knew a donation of ten thousand dollars would attract attention. I really don't like being in the spotlight, so I thought staying anonymous was the best choice."

The host looked surprised. "Why don't you want attention?"

I shook my head helplessly. "Some people enjoy insulting others, belittling them and trampling on their dignity for fun. I try to keep a low profile to avoid them, yet I still seem to attract their attention."

As soon as I finished speaking, the crowd turned to glare at Louis and Zack.

After all, their loud and arrogant insults earlier had caught everyone's attention.

"Mr. White is clearly talking about them—what a pair of lowlifes!"

"They were so bold in criticizing him. I thought they must've donated a lot, but it turns out their contribution was only ten percent of his!"
