Chapter 5

After packing up my things.

I contacted the event organizers and submitted some documents.

Then I left, because this charity drive wasn't hosted in this city, but involved a wilderness hike.

So, it would take a few days.

I bought a plane ticket and departed, also taking the opportunity to clear my mind.

When I arrived at the location, one of the organizers looked surprised to see me alone.

"Mr. Reynolds, I remember you mentioned coming with your wife?"

I chuckled softly.

"My wife had some urgent business, so she couldn't make it..."

The organizer didn't say much about it.

The charity drive lasted about a week.

At the end, participants could also voluntarily donate to the charity fund.

I donated a delicate "Crystal Heart."

This was originally a surprise I had planned for Maya during this charity drive.

But she didn't need it now.

So, I made sure it was put to good use.

The organizer opened the box containing the "Crystal Heart" and glanced at it, a hint of surprise on their face.

"Mr. Reynolds, isn't this too valuable? I remember seeing something like this online, it was worth hundreds of thousands."

"It's just a small token of my affection for the underprivileged children in the mountains."

After a moment of stunned silence, the organizer quickly thanked me.

I waved my hand.

After returning from the charity event.

I saw a familiar number calling me again.

It was a call I had rejected countless times.

After a moment of hesitation, I pressed the answer button. A voice came from the other end.

"Mr. Reynolds, our C Group is very eager to..."

"Mr. Reynolds, our company has extended invitations to you dozens of times to join us as our lead animation designer. We've seen your work from the global competition, and it perfectly aligns with our needs. We sincerely invite you to join our company. What do you think?"

I had studied animation design and production.

And I had a strong talent in this field.

A while ago, out of boredom, I participated in an international animation rendering competition.

I won first place.

After that, I was noticed by an animation production company called "C Group."

I knew about this company; it was a top production studio that collaborated with Hollywood.

Many famous animations on the market were produced by this company.

When they invited me before.

I still felt tied down, and I still clung to a sliver of hope.

I always thought that one day, Maya would see my efforts and dedication.

But now, none of that mattered to me.

"Alright, I accept your invitation."

I answered before the other person could speak.

The other person was stunned for a few seconds, as if they hadn't fully processed what I said.

A few seconds later, the person finally let out an excited voice.

"That's wonderful, fantastic! Mr. Reynolds, please complete your emigration procedures as soon as possible. Our company will cover all expenses."

"Okay."

I agreed.

And hung up the phone.
