The Model Millionaire 

by Oscar Wilde

           Hughie Erskine was a very good-looking young man. Men and women liked him very much because he never said an unkind word about anyone. But he was not rich and dlever. He was always changing his job.

           Hughie loved girl named Laura Merton, the daughter of a retired colonel Laura loved him, too, but her father did not allow them to marry unless Hughie could provide ten thousand pounds.

           One morning Hughie visited his friend, Alan Trevor. Trevor was a famous painter. At that time Alan was inishing a full-sized picture of a beggar man The beggar was standing on a stage in a corner of the room. The beggar looked so miserable that Hughie felt sorry for him. When Alan went out of the room hughie gave the beggır a sovereign the only thing he had in his pocket Then he said goodbye to Alan. 

          That night Hughie went to the Palette Club. There he met Alan. Alan told Hughic about the old beggar he had used as his model. The beggar asked Alan about Hughie and Alan frankly told about Hughie's private life. Later Alan revealed who the beggar was. He was Baron Hausberg, one of the richest men in Europe. Hughie was very stardled, but also angry with Alan because Alan had told his private life to Baron Hausberg. Hughie walked home unhappily, leaving Alan laughing loudly.

           The next morning while Hughie was having his breakfast, a messenger from Baron Hausberg came and handed a letter from the baron to Hughic. Hughie wondered what was inside the envelope. He opened the cnvelope with a pounding heart. To his surprise, there was a cheque for ten thousand pounds as a wedding present to Hughie and Laura. Hughie could not conve in words how happy he was because he could marry Laura. 

          At the wedding party, Alan remarked. "Millionaire models were rare enough but model millionaires are rarer still"
