Chapter 159

When it cto natural disasters, | could relate.

My family also ran an orchard, and extrweather could seriously impact the quality and taste of the fruit,

making it hard to sell at a good price. Even though technology had advanced greatly, people in agriculture were

still at the mercy of the weather.

| tried to comfort her. "Felicia, tell your mom not to worry. It's okay if you don't make money this season. There's

always next year. Besides, didn't your live stream earnings bring in a lot of tips? You could send sof that to

your parents to tide them over."

"You're right."

The thought of the tens of thousands in her livestream earnings brightened her mood.

| was already aware that her family wasn't well-off. While | didn't want them to rely

onunnecessarily, | didn't want them to struggle for basic needs.

Felicia immediately called her mother again. When she hung up, she smiled through her tears and even looked

excited.

"My mother's so happy! She says she wants to visitand look around the city. | haven't seen her in a year."

| was surprised. "A year? Didn't you go hduring the winter break?"

She shook her head. "I stayed here to work." Felicia was indeed such a hardworking and determined young lady.

| smiled at her, feeling a mix of pity and admiration. "Well, now you and your mom can reunite."

| also made up my mind. When her mother arrived, | would treat her well and warmly welcher so her trip

wouldn't be in vain.

After dinner, we headed back to campus. To my surprise, a few familiar faces were waiting at the gate. It was

Louis, Veronica, and Zack.

They noticed us and quickly walked over.

"Well, if it isn't Mr. Show-Off!"

The moment Louis saw me, he started mocking me. | simply chuckled, no longer bothered by people like him.

To my surprise, Zack didn't join in and even nudged Louis. "Don't call him that. We wronged him last time."

Veronica said, "Yeah. We all thought he stole that money and tore into him for it. Turns out he was innocent, and

none of us even apologized."

| was slightly taken aback. Were they finally saying something reasonable?

But before could adjust my opinion

of them, she continued, "Still,

William, if you didn't steal that

money, where did you get it from? That's a pretty big amount!"

"Oh, | won the lottery."

Not wanting to reveal the truth, | stuck to my usual excuse.

"The lottery?" Her eyes widened. "Wow! You hit the jackpot! How did you get so lucky to win this much money?"

| smiled faintly, uninterested in continuing the conversation. But they immediately started buzzing with

excitement.

Louis burst out laughing. "I knew it! This guy couldn't possibly be from a wealthy family. You all didn't believe me

and kept sucking up to him. Hilarious! Zack, keep kissing up to him. Go on!"

Zack's face turned sour. "If you won the lottery, why didn't you just say so earlier?

"You only won the lottery. Why are

you showing off so much? Donating money buying expensive clothes, and splurging on outfits for

Felicia-how much of that million do you even have left?"

| immediately understood their intention.
