“Heh. Hey, your name’s Gerald, right? Why don’t you take out the jade bracelet you bought for Giya and show it to us too?” In his mind, Yacob thought that Gerald was most definitely the reason why Giya had been ignoring him all this time. Therefore, he was targeting Gerald now. “Forget about mine! The jade bracelet which I bought is nowhere near as good as yours. You don’t have to look at it!” said Gerald truthfully. After all, he had simply bought a jade bracelet which cost seven thousand and five hundred dollars for Giya. It was nowhere near the absurd price of Yacob’s gift. Besides, if he really wanted to mock Yacob, it’d be easier for Gerald to just slap the boy in the face. However, Gerald didn’t want to get involved with him or Giya and her friends too much in the future so he abstained for now. Mila was sincere to him so he wanted to do the same. Therefore, there was no reason for him to compete with Yacob. Nothing good would ever come of it nor would he gain any
“This jade bracelet… was originally my grandmother’s. Since I have nothing else to compensate Giya with, I’m giving this to her instead…” lied Gerald. “Oh my god! Gerald, don’t you know the value of this bracelet? Are you sure you aren’t going to regret it if you give it to Giya now? I’m telling you seriously that it’s still not too late for you to regret it now!” said Tammy as she felt the weight on her chest slowly lift. God d*mn! She was almost scared to death just now. If Gerald had actually bought the jade dragon bracelet that cost thirty-two thousand dollars, then he could possibly be a low key rich heir! Unlike most other girls, Tammy hadn’t felt any contempt toward Gerald. However, it would have been beyond surprising and unbelievable if a pauper like Gerald suddenly turned out to be a heir richer than all of them there could ever be. Fortunately, that wasn’t the case. “I didn’t know the value of the dragon jade bracelet before this but I do now. I don’t regret anyt
Giya ran after him again. “You know, it’s going to be difficult for you to notify me when you’re actually getting married. Why don’t we exchange contact information to ease that process?” “That… Well, alright. Let me add you on WeChat. I’ll definitely let you know when it happens!” Gerald didn’t know what else to say. He couldn’t just refuse and turn around to leave. He just wasn’t that kind of person. After all, Giya would definitely lose face if he had left without accepting her offer. So he simply went along and added Giya on his WeChat account. Of course, Gerald wasn’t that narcissistic to believe that such a beautiful goddess would ever like him. Even after adding her on WeChat, he felt that they wouldn’t be talking much with each other anyway. He tried his best not to think too much about it. Once the exchange was done, Giya took the bracelet with her as she walked upstairs again. At the time, several of the girls were still doubtful about Gerald’s claims. “Giya
“Sorry, there were just too many people in the library earlier for my comfort! I just studied in my dormitory!” replied Gerald. “Oh, I see! Well, from now on, we can go to the library earlier. Whoever comes first can reserve a seat for the other, alright?” “Actually there’s something I have to attend to now, I’ll get back to you later!” Gerald threw his cell phone aside after replying to her message. He was indeed, trying to avoid her. In fact, ever since things had gotten better with Mila, Gerald had been deliberately trying to keep his distance from other girls. After all, once the current exams were over, Gerald and the other students from his department would still have to stay back in school for another three months to deal with their thesis and dissertations. Those from Giya’s and most other departments would have left to get their internships during that time. He would never see her again. Gerald also knew for a fact that he could never fit in well in Giya’s circ
“Why are you hiding? Why can’t you be more like a man? I can tell that Giya is into you even though we don’t know why, but you have truly hurt her!” Tammy said.Gerald immediately felt guilty after listening to her, because Giya had indeed invited him multiple times, but he had always rejected her offer. Gerald thought that Giya was just being nice, but he never knew that she had always been serious about it and had bought food, waiting for him at the canteen. Gerald felt very guilty toward her. “Do you know what Giya said about you?” “What?” “Giya thinks that you’re a nice and honest guy. She also thinks that you’re quite cute, and she would really love to be friends with you. However, who knew that you were just a jerk! Giya is in trouble and you’re here buying drinks for pretty girls! You don’t even care one bit about Giya at all. She was so wrong about you!” Tammy immediately felt better after releasing her emotions at Gerald. Gerald was shocked. “Giya is in trouble?”
“Yes, Mr. Crawford. I’m at the military base. What is your command?” Drake and Tyson had become Gerald’s bodyguards, but they didn’t need to follow him around for 24 hours, and hence, he had put them in charge of the military base. “Can the resources at the military base help diagnose unknown diseases?” Gerald asked. “Of course. The medical department in the military base includes the best doctors in all fields. They can cure most diseases! What do you need, Mr. Crawford?” “There’s a patient whose daughter’s name is Giya in the Provincial People’s Hospital. She’s a student at Mayberry University. Please look it up and send the best doctors over!” “Understood, Mr. Crawford!” Gerald then hung up the phone. That was all he could do to help. He was not hoping that Giya would thank him since he was not supposed to expose himself anyway. After that, he went back to his own hostel to study. Meanwhile, at the Provincial People’s Hospital. “Doctor, please help my wife! No matter
Yakob’s father immediately promised him when he heard about the situation. He only had this one son, and he had to help him. Yakob’s father immediately contacted the doctors he knew from overseas as well as local Traditional Chinese Medicine doctors. Yakob then went back happily and said, “Mr. Quarrington, my dad has already arranged a few doctors to drop by tomorrow!”Walton replied, “Thank you so much, Yakob! We will cover all the fees, and the Quarringtons will owe you one big favor!” “Thank you so much, Yakob!” Giya said. Yakob nodded and said, “You’re welcome!” Meanwhile, overseas. “Hey! It’s me, Mr. Lincoln. May I know if Specialist Dorian is in? Yes, tomorrow… oh, he’s not free? Okay, it’s alright, thank you!” Andy Lincoln was not very happy after being rejected. He would be very embarrassed if he could not fulfill what his son had promised to other people. He immediately contacted a few other specialists. Most of them had some time to spare, but it was quite to
After hearing about the situation, the specialists went into the ward. The head doctor did not dare to stop them. All of these specialists were the greatest of their time. They only came out three and a half hours later. The specialist told the hospital that the patient had recovered from the disease, and she just had to rest well. “Please stay for the interview, doctors!” The head doctor immediately asked them to stay.The specialist did not bother about him and walked out of the hospital. “They were telling the truth, doctor! The patient has indeed gotten better!” One of the doctors in charge said excitedly. Walton and Giya were very touched. “Thank you so much, Yakob! I’ll have to thank your father personally when he comes back!” Walton said. “Anything for you, Mr. Walton!” Yakob felt incredible in front of them, but at the same time, he was really confused. Had his father really called those specialists over? Yakob could not believe it. He immediately called his
