Come With Me

Chapter 221 The Meaning Of Travel

After breakfast, the two of us followed Tyrone and other leaders of the village to the school site.

When we arrived, all preparations had already been ready. There was a long row of tables, covered with red flannel, on which two microphones were placed in the chair.

There were many chairs neatly placed under the stage.

Because the number of chairs was limited, many villagers who heard the news were standing not far behind the chairs, looking quite orderly.

I asked in a low voice, "Why are there so many people?"

"There are leaders of the city, reporters, and you, a big star. So there must be many villagers coming to attend the ceremony."

"I'm not a big star. I just have one representative work. Only a few people know me. Don't laugh at me."

"In this world, it is enough for me to know you."

As he spoke, he bent his arm slightly and I put my hand on his arm.

At this time, more than ten cars came one after another. Tyrone introduced all the leaders to us.

The reporters began to take photos when the leaders got off the car.

We had been arranged to sit according to our identity.

As far as I could remember, the ceremony took a long time, for more than a dozen leaders gave their respective statements. Rogelio and I also made speeches.

Rogelio and I just simply expressed our wish to have more children to go to school, and he clearly stated that this was just the beginning. In the following days, he would donate more schools.

I also asked for Rogelio's opinion. I wanted to use all my advertisements fees in the Ivey as the tuition for children in mountainous areas.

Rogelio agreed. He also said that I didn't need money because he would support me.

I couldn't help but smile at him. "Why didn't I see that your mouth is so sweet before?"

"Really? Really? I mean it."

With the consent of Rogelio, I said in public that I would donate all my endorsement expenses.

However, this session only lasted for two hours before the official ceremony began. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Then all kinds of reporters took pictures of us. The reporter's interviews with us was also very official.

Although it took a long time, when I saw the villagers around us applauding and expressing their gratitude to us, I felt that everything was worth it.

Especially when I saw those children who were looking forward to going to school, I felt gratified that I could help more children and let more children not experience the misfortune of my childhood.

After the ceremony, I and Rogelio decided to go home. After all, he had to deal with the business in the company, and my New Year's Eve party was close at hand.

I left with Rogelio in a farewell party. But when I left, I saw a nanny car coming to the village, and the license plate number revealed that it was from our city.

I asked Rogelio who was in that car.

"Don't you want to help David's family? This is my arrangement."

I saw the car driving towards the village. "Although I want to help, I have to ask you to do it. I still want to thank you."

"Although it's your wish, I'm not happy about it, because I almost lost you because of him. But I will help you do whatever you want to do, but this is my bottom line."

Seeing that Rogelio cared about me more than I did, I was touched.

Although the trip between me and Rogelio was not long, it was meaningful. Most importantly, it had changed my future life.

It was already eight o'clock in the evening when I and Rogelio arrived home.

When we entered the house, Nancy was sitting on the sofa in the hall, with a tablet computer in her hand and looking at something with interest.

Seeing Nancy, Rogelio released my hand, sat beside Nancy and hugged her affectionately. "Mom, what are you looking at?" he asked.

When Nancy saw Rogelio, a big smile appeared on her face. She touched his face with her hand and pointed at the tablet PC in her hand. "The CEO of the Ivey Group, together with his beloved wife, the movie star Jasmine, is dedicated to donate money for the poor children."

"Look, there are a lot of praises on it. Look at these photos. My son is the most handsome man in the world. Why are you so handsome? You are more handsome than those male stars."

Looking at the look on Nancy's face, Rogelio smiled and said, "It's all because my mother and father are both beautiful and handsome. Otherwise, how could they have so many beautiful children?"

With a big smile on her face, Nancy looked at Rogelio. Her eyes were filled with affection towards her son.

"You are the sweetest one among my children. Your brother and sister are not as good as you in making me happy. It's so good that you can wake up. You don't know how I survived the year you fell asleep."

Nancy was very happy, but when she said these words, she suddenly burst into tears.

Rogelio gave Nancy another hug and comforted her, "Mom, I won't let you worry anymore."

"I'm glad to hear that."

It was not until Nancy raised her head that she noticed me. The smile in her eyes disappeared.

She took a deep breath and gently pushed Rogelio away. She glanced at me without leaving any trace and said, "Don't say that you won't make me worry. I like to worry about my own son."

Nancy threw the laptop on the sofa, stood up and pulled up Rogelio. "You haven't eaten yet, have you? Let's go to eat."

Standing up, Rogelio didn't follow her immediately. Instead, he looked back at me and reached out her hand. "Honey, come here."

Looking askance at me, Nancy was unhappy to see that Rogelio took my hand.

I didn't know if Rogelio had noticed the atmosphere between me and Nancy, but he was holding my hand and holding Nancy's hand.

He said to the two of us, "It's my honor to hold the two most important women in my life. Let me hold your hands every day, eat together and do a lot of things together, okay?"

Nancy paused for a few seconds, sighed helplessly, drew a long ending and said, "Okay."

Rogelio hugged Nancy. He rubbed her shoulder and said, "Mom, you are so kind."

"Don't say that, okay? You are my son. As a mother, I can't say no to your decision."

There were many steaming dishes on the table.

"Why did you prepare so many delicious food?" asked Rogelio.
