$Nunca le dije a mi familia que era dueño de un imperio de tres mil millones de dólares. Para ellos, seguía siendo un fracaso. Así que me invitaron a su fiesta de Nochebuena, no para reunirnos, sino para humillarme, para celebrar que mi hermana se había convertido en directora ejecutiva con un salario de trescientos mil dólares. Quería ver cómo trataban a la pobre, así que fingí ser despistada, torpe y vestí con sencillez. Pero en cuanto crucé la puerta… vi a alguien de pie en medio de la sala, alguien a quien nunca imaginaron que conocía. Y cuando sonrió y me dijo algo, toda la sala se quedó petrificada.$
