Modern Traveler-Chapter 94. Planss

George always prioritizes Amelia. He constantly looks out for her, especially when he senses that something bad might happen. George knows that Amelia is kind-hearted and easily taken advantage of, which is why he considers himself more street-smart than she is. He also understands how to manage his own desires. For instance, when I asked both of them what they wanted, Amelia immediately expressed her wish to travel abroad with her friends, and George simply went along with it without a second thought. He didn't ask for anything in return. Small details often go unnoticed, but when you live together, you begin to recognize these nuances.

"Okay, we will take a break for now. I know all of you are hungry, so let's allow the waiters to deliver the food." Soon, many waiters arrived with plates in their arms, serving the dishes. "While we enjoy the food, I will call each person listed for the 18 gifts. After that, let the party begin."

"First, let's call Amelia's best friend, Bea. Please come to the front to present your gift and explain why you chose it," the host announced.

Bea, who was about to take a bite, froze mid-air when her name was called. "Damn, she didn't let me eat first," she complained to the host but walked to the stage near the sofa where Amelia was sitting.

"Hello, I'm Bea. My gift is a necklace that has our pictures together. So no matter where she goes, she'll always have me by her side," Bea said.

"Thank you. Next up is Jane... Mika... Brent... Remi... Tristan," the host continued calling one by one as Amelia's friends took their turns.

"Madison, could you please come to the stage to present your gift?" the host requested.

Madison walked to the stage, and everyone admired her beauty. "Hello. My gift for Amelia is a camera. She and her brothers, along with her friends, are going on a trip this Sunday, so I bought her this. Happy Birthday, Lea!" She kissed Amelia on the cheek and walked back down.

"Can we call Sabrina to the stage, please?" the host announced.

Sabrina walked to the stage next to Amelia and began to speak. "Happy Birthday, Amelia! My gift for you is a wooden tumbler with your face carved into it. I thought it was cute and perfect for you." She smiled and kissed Amelia's cheek.

"Miss Elizabeth, could you please step up to the stage to present your gift?" the host asked.

"Hello Amelia, happy birthday! My gift for you is a scrapbook. I gift this to you to fill with all your adventures and happy memories. With the trip you're planning, this is the perfect time to use it," she said, kissing Amelia before stepping back down.

Next, the host called our aunts, followed by our cousins. Two of my mom's friends were also called to present their gifts. The last one to be called was Neo.

"For the final gift, let's call her brother Neo to the stage," the host announced.

Neo walked to the stage and stood beside Amelia. "My gift to Amelia is this," he said, pulling out a key from his pocket. "I'm giving this to Amelia because she doesn't have a car yet. Hahaha! This is your car from now on." Neo pressed the key, and the car lights turned on.

"Damn, a Bentley Mulliner!"

"So rich!"

"Normal people give phones, but a hypercar? Wow!"

"I had a feeling Neo would give her a car. I saw online that he bought many." Brent

"I believe he bought at least 30 cars," Mika added.

"Thank you, Neo! Hahaha! I love it!" Amelia couldn't help but stand up and hug her brother. "I have my own car now! Hahaha!"

"Of course. George, happy birthday to you too. This is yours," Neo said as he walked over to where George was sitting and handed him the keys.

"Damn, a Pagani Utopia. Thanks, Neo! Hahaha! I thought you were serious when you said you'd give me a Kia!" George pressed the keys, seeing the car lights activate. He had started researching cars when our dad asked for his opinion on the ones he was buying, and that's how he stumbled upon this one while searching for the most expensive hypercars.

"Hahaha, I wouldn't do that to you. You didn't ask for anything for your birthday, so I wanted to give you something special, George." Neo

After that, the party started. All minors attending were not allowed to drink, but they could stay to dance and enjoy the festivities. Neo called Isaac, Jack, Poki, and the others, including his uncles, aunties, and parents, to a meeting.

"So, why did you gather us here, Neo? I'm just about to head home because partying isn't really my thing anymore," Isaac said.

"Right, I don't like loud music anymore either!" Oliver added with a laugh.

"It's because you're all getting old!" Neo teased.

"You'll experience it too, Neo. I can't wait for that day to come," Uncle Lester remarked.

"Let's get back on topic. Why did you gather us here?" Uncle Frank asked. Poki and the others nodded, eager to know the reason for the meeting.

"Ah, Isaac. Let me introduce you. This is my father, Uncle, Aunties, and here are my friends: Pokimane, Valkyrae, Sakura, Kyedae, Tenz, Jack, and Emma. I told you last time that I'll give you 5% of the company. Jack, my best friend, will be managing everything in the store; you could say he will be the CEO," Neo explained.

"Okay. What else, Neo?" Isaac asked, and everyone listened intently.

"I'll give 2% of the company to Jack and Emma. Poki, Rae, Sakura, Tenz, and Kyedae are big streamers who will help market our business. I'll also give them 2% each. For my uncles, I'll give them 5% each. That adds up to a total of 29%," Neo continued.

"Okay. That's a smart move. Using them to livestream and promote your jewelry store means you'll retain 71% of the company," Isaac replied.

"As for my parents... Dad, Mom, do you also want a share of the company?" Neo asked.

"I don't need any. You always give us money. We're fine," Oliver said.

"Why not allocate 20% of the company to your charity? This way, the charity will have stable funding," Luna suggested.

"Are you starting a charity, Neo?" Poki asked.

"Yes, I'm planning to set aside $40 billion as a starting fund. My family will manage it. Would you like to join us in promoting it?" Neo offered.

"$40 billion?! That's insane! What kind of charity are you planning?" Jack exclaimed.

"We plan to establish scholarships, create shelters, and provide homes for the elderly. We will also assist those in need of medical aid and help people find better job opportunities," Uncle Frank explained.

"That sounds amazing! I want to get involved in this charity," Kyedae expressed.

"Count me in! Hundreds of thousands will benefit from this, and people who genuinely need help will receive it," Isaac said.

"If you need more support, Neo, I think the best way is to hold an interview. With this news made public, many people will likely donate to your charity," Pokimane suggested.

"I'll help promote your charity, too. At least this way, I can contribute," Valkyrae added.

"Same here, Neo! We will help promote it during our livestreams," Sakura chimed in.

"That sounds fantastic! I'll take all your advice. This meeting is over. Let's go outside and join the party!" Neo concluded with a laugh.
