Chapter 732: VIP Invitation
Lin Yan had just woken up the next morning when she received a phone call.
It was a call from the head secretary of Darling’s Home Charity Foundation.
“Hi, Head Secretary Liu,” answered Lin Yan.
An excited voice rang in her ears. “You finally answered my call!”
Lin Yan cleared her throat. “Sorry, I have been a little busy recently.”
“Is there a problem with the foundation?” She pressed on.
“Nothing! The foundation is doing pretty well. Isn’t the charity event next week? The Vice President told me to ask if you will be attending it,” the man said in antic.i.p.ation.
“As usual…” Lin Yan replied.
Head Secretary Liu sounded regretful. “President, are you going to get the Vice President to attend on your behalf?”
Lin Yan grunted in response. “Yeah.”
The Head Secretary hesitated momentarily before bursting out. “President, I’ve heard all about what happened. All those people chastised you really badly. It’s too much!
You’re the president of the charity foundation. Why would you need to partic.i.p.ate in some garish vote? I wonder if they even have brains.
President, are you sure you don’t need us to clarify this?”
“There is no need. It’s not easy to clarify and explain the entire situation. Furthermore, there’s no need for you guys to get embroiled in this mess,” said Lin Yan.
She did not wish to reveal her ident.i.ty.
“Alright then…” Sensing how determined Lin Yan was, Head Secretary Liu decided to drop it.
Lin Yan shut her eyes as she lounged on the couch.
Years ago, she had first heard about Darling’s Home Charity Foundation when she had been looking for her brother.
The foundation hadn’t been given much attention at the time. Initially, she’d made small donations, as she hadn’t been earning much. After going abroad, she had increased her donations. Even now, she had been making a fixed contribution to the foundation every month.
Other than that, she had given suggestions to the management for the foundation’s fundraising and promotional campaigns, which had led to more recognition from the public.
Many of the campaigns had won the approval of the public.
Hence, she had been invited by the person in charge of the foundation to join them in the planning department.
She had accepted the offer gladly.
As time had gone by, she had risen to more prominent and important ranks in the foundation. She had been promoted to head of the planning department before taking a seat in the management hierarchy. In the time to come, she had risen to become the Vice President and then the President.
The charity foundation had made an exception for her by keeping her ident.i.ty a secret. The Vice President had attended events and functions on her behalf whenever necessary.
She had been a racer so she’d had to juggle both her career and Darling’s Home Charity Foundation. Furthermore, she had been overseas and up to her ears in work. That was why she had decided to enlist Lin Shuya’s help in managing Angel’s Shelter.
Her mother and Lin Shuya were clueless about her involvement in the charity foundation.
Everyone had long a.s.sumed that her brother was dead. She didn’t dare give her mother and sister false hope that he might still be alive. Hence, she had secretly investigated by herself.
In the process of looking for her brother, she had discovered many other families who had lost a loved one like her. That was why she was determined to help them.
All these years, she had helped countless families locate their loved ones. Yet her brother remained untraceable…
Although Lin Yan had replied that she wouldn’t be attending the event as the President, the Head Secretary still decided to send her a VIP invitation.
