As everyone started chattering away, one after the other, Rita suddenly received a phone call. Her face lightened with joy as she squealed, “What, sister? You have already arrived at the airport? Didn’t you say that you will not be able to make it back for grandma’s birthday? Ahh? Okay! Okay! Okay! I will come and pick you right now!”Hanging up right away, Rita said, “Grandma, my sister will be arriving in a bit. She came back all the way from M country and she is already waiting at the airport now!”“Oh that child, Cara...alright. I knew that she would definitely be back…” The old lady smiled as she immediately said: “Then Mason…Mason you can go and pick Cara up! You may go alone. I want Queenie to stay and accompany me.”“Okay, grandma!”Mason smiled as he waved, clutching the BMW sports car key in his hand before quickly excusing himself.Mila’s face was clouded with disappointment.Cara was Rita’s sister.Ever since childhood, Mila had always had the best relationship wit
Chapter 130
When Gerald walked over, the entire Smith family was already gathered here.Concurrently, Mason was explaining the situation:“Dad, I really didn’t mean it. This is all this security guard’s fault! I was relying on his directions and he kept telling me to reverse. That’s when I crashed into the car!”“This car is the most expensive car produced by Lamborghini. It will cost at least a hundred to a hundred and twenty thousand dollars to fix the damages caused by this accident. Plus, the car’s front lamps are already broken!”Some of the relatives who recognized this car could not help but exclaim out loud.“Whoever is driving this car is definitely not just anybody. We can definitely afford to pay that price to fix the damages. But we might also be offending a very powerful figure. On top of that, this looks like it’s a new car that someone just bought!”“Just think about it. In Mayberry City, which son of which wealthy and influential family would be able to drive this kind of spo

After saying that, Gerald walked up to the car to take a look.He would be lying if he said that he wasn’t distressed at the sight of his broken car at all.Moreover, what could he possibly do now? What has happened, has happened. Plus it was Mila’s grandmother’s birthday banquet today.If he demanded them to pay for the damages incurred, what would it make Mila look like?Besides that, it was also have been too embarrassing. Out of no choice, he was left to bottle his bitter sufferings in silence.And with that, Gerald could only ask them to carry on whatever they were doing. He could perhaps later on drive his car to the 4S shop to fix the damages.“Who do you think you are? Do you think that everything will be okay just because you say that it’s okay?”“Those who don’t know any better would actually think that you are actually Mr. Crawford from Mayberry Commercial Street. Let’s only talk about all these when you finally reach that point in life!”“Exactly! If we leave righ

Two million six hundred thousand dollars!What kind of status was this?Impossible!Irene rushed over to the car before she unceremoniously flipped out the car driving permit.“Snap!”Upon looking at the permit, Irene froze as she dropped the car driving permit to the ground.She was dumbfounded.“If you don’t want to look at it, just don’t look at it. Why do you have to throw it on the ground?”Gerald could not help but smiled wryly.“Some people do not have any knowledge or experience. Likewise, her father and mother too. They do not have any knowledge or experience in this at all. Gerald, why don’t you tell auntie how you met our Mila?”Helen quickly ran over to pick up the car driving permit before glancing at it. She then grabbed Gerald’s wrist the next immediately second..She started acting very cordially as though she was holding her own son’s hand.“Oh, auntie. We met when we were learning how to drive!”Gerald replied.“Hahaha. I knew all along that our Mila has

Gerald felt his heart skip a beat when he heard the cry for help.He hastily rushed over. The moat was pretty desolate as there were no parks or anything else nearby.The woman was crying and she was drenched from head to toe.When she saw Gerald, she almost collapsed to her knees. “Hurry! Hurry! Hurry! Please help save my daughter!”The woman was beautiful and appeared to be wearing a lot of fine jewelry. It seemed as though she was quite a figure.She hurriedly pointed at the river and Gerald could see a young girl flailing about in the water.Her daughter had obviously tripped into the water. The woman tried to rescue her daughter but she could only plead desperately for help as she didn’t know how to swim.Gerald watched in horror as the young girl’s body slowly stopped moving and started sinking.He knew that it would be way too late if he did not act upon it now.Without thinking twice, he dove into the river at an accelerated speed.Gerald’s family used to live in a

Gerald looked around everywhere but he could not find her at all. Plus, his phone had died again.In just about an hour of searching, he was now drenched in sweat.Mila came out with him. Could something have happened to her? Gerald had already ruled out all of the possibilities and had already been waiting around the area for such a long time.But he still couldn’t see Mila anywhere at all.The more he thought about it, the more Gerald started to break out in cold sweat.Gerald decided to return to the car shop to see if he could get his cell phone to turn on.After fiddling with it for a while, he finally managed to turn on his cell phone.As expected, Mila did indeed make many phone calls and sent many text messages to him.However, his cell phone had been turned off at that time.Gerald hurriedly returned her call but he realized that Mila’s cell phone was already turned off.What was happening?Gerald couldn’t remain his composure any longer.He tried calling Mila’s ho

Nigel!As Gerald zoomed into the screen and fiddled about for a bit, the person shown in the picture was none other than Nigel from the Fisher family. No matter how much Nigel tried to disguise himself, he would never be able to fool Gerald because of the smile that he always had on his face.From the start, Nigel was the trigger and the direct cause of Gerald and Xavia’s breakup.Moreover, when they went over to the Emperor Karaoke Bar after Naomi’s birthday party, Nigel has also been keeping tabs on him. Out of anger, Gerald called Zack for help, to teach Nigel a lesson.The moment his sister found out about this matter, she simply did not just teach Nigel a lesson. Instead, she made the entire Fisher family go bankrupt.At last, Nigel was taken away at the entrance of the Mountain Wayfair Entertainment.Ever since that day, the Fisher family was completely destroyed. They had to hand the Grand Marshall Restaurant over and the restaurant was now managed by the Ziegler family in

Zack even urged him repeatedly to wait for him so that they could discuss things further when he arrives.He told Gerald not to act rashly. Zack couldn’t afford to see Gerald lose it at this point.If that happened, then Zack would have to resign. No, worse still he’d rather die. Gerald hung up before Zack could even finish talking.He hurriedly returned to the car shop with Wilson. He then told Wilson to wait for Zack to come here.He said that he had to leave first.“Oh! Isn’t that Gerald?”“Oh my! It is really him! What is he doing in the Lamborghini car shop?”“I heard that the store is recruiting some sales representatives at the moment. Is he trying to apply for the job? Doesn’t he know that the shop has very high requirements for their sales representatives?”“Yes, look at him. Even if he really won the lottery, he still has a very poor temperament. It makes people sick to even just look at him!”Gerald’s presence was unexpected. And he could already hear were their
