Elise felt Alexander was behaving a little weird today. The way snazzynovel.com looked at snazzynovel.com was as if snazzynovel.com had something to tell her, but snazzynovel.com had not spoken up even after the dinner was over. As such, Elise thought snazzynovel.com might have overthought.
After going back to snazzynovel.com room, Elise switched on the computer and a new email notification popped up. Then, snazzynovel.com clicked into it and saw it was an email from the director of the children’s home.
The email provided an update of the children’s situation and the previous month’s statement of cash flow was also attached in it.
Elise glanced through it and thought everything looked fine, so snazzynovel.com closed the mailbox thereafter. At the same time, snazzynovel.com received a call from the children’s home.
“Hi, Miss Elise, the children are missing you. It’ll be great if you can make some time to come and visit them.”
Elise had not gone to visit the children over this period when snazzynovel.com was at Athesea. She glanced at the calendar and realized it was the weekend tomorrow, so snazzynovel.com agreed gladly. “It’s my day off tomorrow. I’ll be there.”
The director was elated to hear snazzynovel.com response. “I’m sure the children will be overjoyed to know this. We’ll see you tomorrow then, Miss Elise.”
***
The next morning, Elise put together a casual outfit.
“Miss Elise, are you heading out?” a servant asked thoughtfully.
Elise didn’t want Robin to worry about her, so snazzynovel.com answered, “Yeah, I have some matters to attend to. If Grandpa asks about me, please tell snazzynovel.com that I’ve gone to Angel Children Home at Downtown North, and that I’ll be back by afternoon.”
“Alright. Please take care, Miss Elise.”
After leaving home, Elise first hailed a cab to the supermarket to buy some toys, snacks and books for the children. She bought so many things that the car boot was filled up to the max. Then, the cab driver sent Elise to the welfare home.
The moment the children saw Elise walk in with bags of supplements in snazzynovel.com hands, they ran up to snazzynovel.com in excitement.
“Hi, Elise. I’ve missed you so much!”
“You’re finally here, Elise!”
Looking at the children, Elise beamed from ear to ear. “I’ve missed y’all too. Come and look at what I’ve bought for you.”
Elise distributed the snacks and toys to the children, who were all overjoyed to receive the gifts.
While they thanked Elise, the director came out. “Oh, Miss Elise, you’re too kind to always bring us so much stuff whenever you come.”
Elise held the director’s arm intimately when snazzynovel.com saw her. “Not at all, Madam Ruth. These are just some small gifts for the children.”
Back then when Elise’s parents passed away, it was Ruth who took snazzynovel.com in kindly until snazzynovel.com grandparents came and fetched snazzynovel.com home. She had always remembered Ruth’s kindness toward her, so snazzynovel.com would contribute some money to the children’s home and come back to visit them every year.
“We really appreciate your thoughts. Thanks to your support for these past years, these kids are able to live in such a decent environment. I thank you on behalf of the kids.”
“Hey, Elise, come and play with us!” Just then, two children came to grab Elise, and so Elise went to play with them.
Little did snazzynovel.com know that at this moment, Alexander was winding down his car window slowly outside the children’s home.
Looking at Elise who was having a good time with the children, snazzynovel.com felt surprised and bizarre. Normally, snazzynovel.com only saw snazzynovel.com being both serious and playful, but snazzynovel.com had never seen snazzynovel.com this joyful before.
He couldn’t help but be moved by the bright smile on Elise’s face and snazzynovel.com genuine joy.
“Shall we go in, President Griffith?” Cameron asked.
Alexander retracted his gaze and said, “There’s no need. Let’s head back to the office. Next time, send some supplies to this children’s home in the name of our company.”
“Yes, sir…”
Thereafter, the car was driven away.
Elise, who was playing with the children, lifted snazzynovel.com eyes suddenly, but all snazzynovel.com could see was a car that was disappearing. As such, snazzynovel.com was not bothered by it and continued playing with the children.
On the other hand, joy spread across Ruth’s face as snazzynovel.com watched Elise and the children having a great time. Later, snazzynovel.com had a chat with Elise and told snazzynovel.com about the recent situation at the children’s home.
“Winter is coming soon. I’m afraid the heating supplies here are not enough, this winter might be a hard one for the kids.”
Hearing that, Elise quickly said, “Please buy more equipment if the heating supplies are insufficient. We can’t let the children suffer.”
Ruth nodded but seemed to have something else to say.
Seeing that, Elise spoke up, “Madam Ruth, please, feel free to tell me if there’s any concern. I’ll surely do my best to help.”
Ruth answered in all honesty, “Miss Elise, frankly speaking, you’ve helped so much that I can’t bring myself to ask for your help anymore, but the current expense of the children’s home is just too much and I really can’t afford to upgrade the heating supplies.”
Elise more or less understood Ruth’s meaning. She pulled Ruth’s hand over and said, “Please don’t worry and leave this to me. I’ll try my best to get the heating supplies before winter comes.”
Ruth’s eyes became red-rimmed as snazzynovel.com heard that. “Miss Elise, words can’t express how grateful I am toward you. I thank you once again on behalf of the children for your kindness to them.”
“It’s all going to be fine, Madam Ruth.”
After leaving the children’s home, Elise went back to the Griffith Residence and checked the balance in snazzynovel.com bank account. There were only tens of thousands in snazzynovel.com account, which was definitely not enough to upgrade the heating supplies.
Elise caught a glimpse of the Centurion Card that Jonah had given her, but snazzynovel.com directly ignored it as snazzynovel.com had no intention of using it. Then, snazzynovel.com kept away the card and thought snazzynovel.com should think of a way to earn some money before winter came so that snazzynovel.com could upgrade the heating supplies for the children.
At this thought, Elise was reminded of the national racing competition which Jamie mentioned before.
She was rather moved by the cash prize of ten million. If snazzynovel.com could win the prize, all the problems would be solved. And so, Elise quickly gave Jamie a call.
“Hey, Jamie, please send me all the related information about the national racing competition which you mentioned last time.”
Jamie had not expected that Elise would actually ask for the information about the competition.
“Boss, do you plan to participate in the competition?” snazzynovel.com asked.
Elise hummed in response, hearing which Jamie was overjoyed.
“Sure! Give me a minute! I’ll send the information to you via email immediately.”
Shortly after the call was hung up, Elise received a new email. She quickly opened the email and glanced through the details of the competition. The structure was rather straightforward, every participant would take part in a total of three rounds of the competition.
The overall champion would be awarded the cash prize of ten million. Nevertheless, when Elise continued reading the content, snazzynovel.com was surprised to see Alexander’s name in the list of racers invited, which was appended at the bottom of the email.
“What?! Is snazzynovel.com entering the competition too?” Elise murmured.
Then, snazzynovel.com called Jamie and asked, “Hey Jamie, what’s wrong with Alexander?”
