Poor Boy Found Millionaire’s Wallet And Made Him Cry With What He Asked In Return

Margarida surprised everyone by handing Paul a card from the luxury hotel she was staying in, instructing him, his mother, and sister to visit the next day. She asked her father for permission before opening his wallet and handing the boy three hundred dollar bills.

“Paul, please use this money to buy clothes for yourself and your family. If not, you may not even be able to get to the hotel reception,” she explained.

Then everyone said their goodbyes. On the way back, Hector Sousa directed the bodyguard to the restaurant he had reserved for Margarida’s birthday celebration.

But she stops him and asks them to return to the hotel.

“What’s the matter, daughter?” the millionaire inquired.

“Dad, what we’d spend one night here would feed Paul’s family for a month!” .

“Let’s just go back to the hotel and order a pizza while we figure out what we’re going to do tomorrow, okay?” .

Hector agreed. He turned and looked proudly at his daughter.

His years as a philanthropist seemed to have finally positively influenced his daughter. Paul, his sister Cindy, and his mother Elisabeth made it to a clothing store early the next morning.

A Celebration of Integrity

They left the place with brand new clothes and a good feeling. Margarida had given them enough money not only for the clothes, but also for breakfast, which they hadn’t had in over a year, to pay for the bus tickets to the hotel, and still have some left over.

When they arrived at the place and realized it was a five-star hotel, they became shy. Paul’s mother had always wanted to visit a place like that, and now that she was there, she didn’t know what to do.

After entering the lobby, the family was led to a garden with a green lawn and a table decorated with flowers and colorful decorations. Paul’s sister described it as the most beautiful place she had ever seen.

Her tiny eyes twinkled. Margarida responded by saying it meant everything to her, and the girl couldn’t stop smiling.

Hector had asked his friend who oversaw the hotel chain to invite all the families with children who were staying there to a birthday party, and many of them came out to the garden, running and playing with Cindy and Paul. Margarida was just as happy as the kids.

For the first time, she realized how her father felt about helping others. Paul and Cindy had their first taste of mousse, which they slathered on a massive chocolate cake.

Elisabeth, Cindy, and Paul’s mother were overjoyed, and they received a hug from Margarida, who was also fighting back tears on her first day as an eighteen-year-old. Hector understood that one birthday party would not suffice to help the family, so he took Elisabeth to his hotel’s manager.

The millionaire expressed his surprise that her son had returned the wallet in the same condition in which it was found, despite the hardships he and his family faced. And if the son had such a disposition, it could only be the result of a good upbringing.

“I congratulate you on your integrity,” he said.

Elisabeth thanked him. The hotel manager then implied that he might be able to help her.

“I recently discovered that my hotel’s head cleaner was involved in a petty theft scheme. She and two other employees were stealing items from our foreign guests, which they were unaware of until they returned to their home countries.” .

Elizabeth was baffled as the supervisor spoke. The man then explained that after identifying those involved, they fired everyone, and that they needed to renew the staff, which should be led by someone with integrity and a lot of confidence.

Changing Fates

“I’m not sure if it was luck or something else, Elisabeth, but when your son returned that wallet intact, he changed the fate of your entire family. If you like, I can make her the head chambermaid. What do you think?” the supervisor inquired of Hector.

“Of course,” Hector responded.

“That makes me extremely happy. She is deserving of it.” .

Elisabeth’s mouth dropped open. She had never imagined that one day she would set foot into a hotel like that, and now she was attending her daughter’s birthday party and being offered a job.

Embarrassed, she stated that she didn’t know if she was qualified for the position, to which the supervisor replied:

“Well, Miss Elisabeth, you already have the most important qualities: character and integrity!” .

The following week, a new chapter in that family’s life began. Paul and Cindy took the school bus.

They were dressed in new clothes and had new school supplies. Elisabeth took a bus to the outskirts of town and checked into a five-star hotel to begin her new job.

She considered herself to be the luckiest woman on the planet. Hector and Margarida, on the other hand, continued their planned trip, but nothing provided the same happiness that Margarida felt during the party in the hotel’s garden.

When she looked at her father, she realized why he was never satisfied with simply being a millionaire. Doing good for others was what made him happy.

She understands it now.
