The person who hit him was none other than Cassandra.He didn’t know when did she even come over and she glared at Gerald angrily as she said: “Gerald, what do you want me to say about you now? You are really getting more and more useless by the day. I asked you to clean up but you are actually secretly playing your cell phone here? Alas, do you know that you simply won the lottery and that is it? People who are really rich are also still working hard at this time. Let me tell you something, Gerald. You have no capital to compare with anyone else anyway but your thoughts are still so habitual! Do you know that this will lead you to mediocrity forever?”After getting slapped, it was followed by a series of rebukes and endless remarks by Cassandra.Damn it!If Cassandra did not add him on the WeChat account, Gerald would have already lost his temper by now.He couldn’t help but think about the fact that Cassandra was treating him like this in reality, but she was treating him so d
The location was at Rivington City!Gerald’s cell phone suddenly rang.At the corner of his eyes, he saw that it was Elena.“Mr. Crawford, have you received the admission ticket?”“Yes, I got it. You should have just given it to me personally when you have the chance to do so. Why did you have to go all the way and trouble yourself just to courier it over to me?”“Hehehe. Mr. Crawford, so this is what happened. I already arrived at Rivington City yesterday to visit my aunt. I also suddenly recalled just last night, that you do not have an admission ticket. Hence I decided to mail it to you overnight!”After finding out Gerald’s identity, Elena had been very respectful towards him.Elena was initially forced by her parents to please Gerald at the very beginning.After spending a few days getting along with Gerald, Elena discovered that he really had a very special charm about him.He was a rich second generation but he did not have the domineering vibe to him. He was really ver
“Are you kidding me, didn’t I just see you holding it?”They arrived at the entrance, and other rich young men advised him.“Yeah, but just now I had to pee, didn’t I? The car stopped somewhere on the way and I peed in the woods. Damn it, I was holding on the admission ticket, and after I finished peeing, I don’t seem to remember holding anything in my hand, I guess that’s when I lost it!”The group started poking fun at him, but they were clearly just joking as friends.Everyone was getting a bit anxious.“Let’s look for it again, but if we can’t, we’ll go back and get it…”“That’s pretty far from here!”They discussed and explained to the female receptionist about how he had the ticket but he lost it, and if he was still allowed to enter and such.The female receptionist directly denied their entrance.“What’s the matter?”At this moment, a middle-aged man in a suit walked towards the group of men and women.“Oh, you must be Yancy Zimmerman.”The middle-aged manager origi
Gerald was surprised. He stopped to see what they were up to.“You! Show me your admission ticket right now!”Ted Lopez’s anger was overwhelming.To be honest, Gerald looked nothing like a rich young man.He doubted earlier that this could’ve been a mistake, but after taking a look at Gerald’s clothing.This definitely was not a mistake!Ted hated him to the bone.“Didn’t you check my admission ticket earlier!” Gerald pointed at the female receptionist.“If I didn’t check, how would I know that a loser just sneaked in!”“Mr Zimmerman, this is the person, I think he picked up your admission ticket!” Hadley shouted at him, rudely.After saying that, she approached Gerald and snatched away the admission ticket from his hands.“Geez, the world is really big and there are all kinds of people, and people like you really think you can just join tonight’s cruise party!”A few girls covered their mouths as they snickered, their eyes were filled with contempt.Only then did Gerald u
Gerald knew what Elena meant without even thinking about it!She was definitely trying to get him to pretend he was her boyfriend so she could use him to deal with that cousin of hers.Gerald had done enough pretending, though, let alone pretending as her boyfriend.“Gerald, please, I beg you, please pretend you’re my boyfriend. Aiden and the others look too much like gangsters; they are not as composed as you are. You’re the best candidate for me. If you’re not going to help me, my cousin will definitely hook me up with that guy, and I really don’t want to meet him!” begged Elena.Although Gerald wanted to refuse, he could really find no reason to. After all, Elena had helped him a few times before, and now she was just asking him to return the favor. It was a simple request, and it would be embarrassing if he refused.“Alright!” Gerald nodded and agreed.After hanging up the phone, Gerald did not go upstairs with Aiden and the others. Instead, he took a taxi to Elena’s cousin’s
“Is he your boyfriend, Elena?”Upon entering the house, a group of young men and women of about the same age approached them before the adults even spoke a word.Each one of them sized up Gerald.It wasn’t long before these people revealed their mind.‘Wow, Elena is so beautiful, and yet she has such horrible taste? It’s obvious that her boyfriend is far from it!’“Elena, we were going to ask you to join us at the cruise party together, but you always say you have something to do. Hmmm, so you brought your boyfriend with you!” said one of the girls.“Yeah, but what a coincidence... we can go together!” Elena smiled and held Gerald’s hand, never letting it go once.None of her cousins greeted Gerald at all.Elena knew that they looked down on him too.However, she didn’t dare reveal Gerald’s identity without his consent. Seeing that Gerald seemed alright, she was relieved.But Gerald was far from happy, numbed from attending such occasions too often. He simply chose to remain
“Auntie, don’t say that!”Elena glared at her with widened eyes.She really did not expect such cruel words to come out from her aunt’s mouth.She really had no idea who the person standing in front of her was. He was truly a great tycoon and a great patron of the Larson family!Elena was a little shocked.After being scolded so much, Gerald was only slightly agitated. The words and mockeries seemed to have numbed him.Ruby was about to reprimand Gerald even more. She wanted to make him understand that he had to stay away from Elena.Suddenly, her phone rang, and she picked it up to answer the call.“Oh? Dickson Wayward? Huh? Didn’t I say I’d let you come next time? What? You’re already at the door? Okay, okay, I’ll go get you now!”The call was from Dickson Wayward. Ruby had already told him that he wouldn’t be coming today.But who knew that Dickson would still insist on coming here?It was Elena’s boyfriend who was coming over, after all, Ruby thought. She was quite pleas
“So you’re saying you’re also from Sunnydale University? I’ve never seen you around, though!” Dickson was smiling the whole time. “No. I’m from Mayberry University.” Gerald knew how to stay calm no matter what kind of vibes the other people were giving him. “Mayberry University is fine. Anyways, what does your family do? How did you make Elena fall for you?” Dickson asked. “Well, Dickson, allow me to tell you. He came from a small village, and his family runs a tiny grocery store! How do you still not understand by the way he dresses?” Amber answered. The highest state of ignorance was pretending someone didn’t exist even when he was just right in front of you. Although it was hurtful, nobody would actually point it out. However, Amber had been doing that to Gerald all along, and it showed how much she despised him. “Oh, it must have been tough studying in Mayberry coming from a small village. Do let me know if you’re in any kind of trouble. My father knows the dean, and I ca
