Man Feeds Dirty Homeless Old Lady in Luxury Restaurant, Visitors Are Outraged — Story of the Day
|Chester Holland was on his way to a luxury restaurant when he noticed Martha curled up in the middle of the street, begging passersby for food. The man felt sorry for her and offered her help, but there was more to why his gaze was instantly drawn to her.
Chester Holland was a lawyer by profession, and he owned one of the most prestigious law firms in New York called Holland and Partners. The man was quite handsome even at 70, with hazelnut eyes and a grayish tinge to his hair, but unfortunately, law studies never gave him the time to use his charm, and as a result, Chester had neither a wife nor children.
His only housemate was his cook Arthur, who would look after his meals and sometimes listen to his courtroom stories in his free time. However, after Arthur requested a vacation, Chester decided that it was better to eat at a restaurant than to use his excellent cooking skills and adorn the kitchen with food waste.

Chester was moved by her innocent eyes, just like the ones he’d seen a few years ago, and decided to approach her. “Hey, my name is Chester. Would you like to join me for dinner tonight?” he asked gently.
Martha, who had been starving for days, was taken aback when she saw the man dressed in a tuxedo approach her and invite her to dine with him. “Well, I’d love to,” she admitted, fighting back the tears at his generosity. “However, I am perplexed as to why you would assist a homeless woman like me.”
“Well, I’m dining alone tonight, and I’d love to have someone’s company,” he explained. “So shall we go?”
Martha thanked him once more for his assistance and accompanied him to the restaurant. But the moment she took a seat in the luxurious establishment, the guests began mocking her.
“Oh my goodness, who is she? And what is she doing in such a high-end restaurant?” yelled one of the ladies at the front table.
