The question had come from Rae. “What did you say? He’s driving a Mercedes-Benz G-Class?” said Waylon, shocked. Thinking back, Gerald had simply smiled calmly at the side while Waylon was showing off his car earlier. He had thought that it was jealousy, but Gerald was just having fun looking at the fool showing his Audi A4L car off! With the current price of a Mercedes-Benz G-Class, that amount of money could easily buy eight or nine Audi A4L cars! “As I said before, I won it as a prize! It’s just a vehicle to help me get around,” said Gerald calmly as he smiled. He then put the jug down and left the ward. Xella had not said anything, but she now respected Gerald more than she ever had. He had simply left the ward once the issues had been resolved without expecting any appreciation at all. In her mind, she knew that even though she had constantly thought that others had been helping her, Gerald didn’t care as long as there were no more issues. Even by the time Gerald
While all this was happening, a sigh was heard. “Tammy, Mr. Quarrington is extremely nervous now. He’s even gone to the police station to launch a report. What should we do? How much longer should we wait here for that Gerald?” Something had happened to Giya and her family and friends definitely knew about it. The one who had sighed was one of Giya’s roommates. They were all now waiting for Gerald at the entrance of Mayberry University. Tammy had agreed to meet him there on the phone earlier. Since Mr. Quarrington had gone to make a police report, Tammy and the others had acted sensibly by going to the university. Informing and sharing what they knew with the university was really all that they could do at that moment. “Let’s just wait for him. He’s the one who knows most about the situation since Giya was last seen at his place. However, he’s not free from being taught a lesson by us later! Her disappearance is still related to him!” said Tammy angrily. The other girls
“I’ve called Felicia and told her about the situation. She’s told me that she’ll try to get her classmate to help us. Hopefully it goes well! With the help of the anchor’s fans, we could finally locate where Giya is! There is strength in numbers after all!” said Tammy. Gerald nodded. He thought that it was a good idea. Normal people didn’t understand the true capabilities of those who worked with mass media and those who treated the internet like their second home. As long as one was willing to research, the information they needed would definitely be found. Gerald called Drake and Tyson to investigate the matter as well. None of them were taking any chances. “Felicia’s here!” At that moment, a black car parked by the road and Tammy’s little cousin hopped out. A handsome man in glasses guided her toward the group. Gerald had met Felicia the other day along with Tammy, so he knew who she was. She definitely knew what had happened to Giya since the moment she saw Gerald,
Yvonne had been working as Felicity’s assistant which explained why she was there. She was clearly shocked when she saw Gerald there. “Don’t worry about it first. More importantly, we need your help!” It felt like ages ago since Gerald had last met Yvonne and Felicity. They had not met face to face since the day he had saved them when they were kidnapped. Gerald felt slightly uneasy talking to them now. “Wait here for a moment. Felicity’s still having her makeup done. I’ll tell her that you’re all here first!” Yvonne wasn’t as mean as she used to be toward Gerald now. A lot had happened since then and it probably really was Gerald who had saved the four of them. Gerald definitely held quite a bit of power and influence. They knew that much. Now, Yvonne wanted to instead try to please Gerald. Felicity clearly had the same thought process. His background was suspicious to them, to say the least. They were in such grave danger back then yet nobody would have been able
Recently after Felicity had become famous, several men who were both handsome and rich began stepping up to help her. Once, she had a minor fever but even then, a few young and rich men had driven over to her place to send her medicine in person. Some of them would even chat with her every night. Technically, by doing all that for her, those men were already good enough to reach her ‘partner standards’. Ordinary Man himself had not spoken much with Felicity for a few months now. She had never met him in person either. Despite all that, Felicity still felt nothing for the others. It was definite proof of her admiration toward Ordinary Man. She had even imagined how he looked, countless times. However, with every passing clue that she got, it further revealed the fuller picture that Ordinary Man was none other than the person that she had always looked down upon, Gerald. How could she not have complicated feelings about that? ‘Could it really be Gerald?’ ‘If it is, the
“Xavia’s in Yanken?” He was stunned just hearing that name again. He hadn’t heard from her for months. He felt a sudden excruciating pain in his heart. After all, he had been a couple with Xavia for two years. His memories at Mayberry University mostly consisted of both of them being together. However, she had severely hurt his feelings. At one point, Gerald felt only resentment toward her. After he revealed his identity as Mr. Crawford to her, he became quite cold toward Xavia. She received such a great blow from that, that she dropped out of university. Since that happened, any resentment he had for her ceased to exist. He was instead filled with self-reproach. In the past, he had nothing. Yet Xavia didn’t dislike him for that. She still chose to be with him. They had their meals together, and even went shopping together. While it was true that Xavia had changed in the end, she was much better compared to Alice and the others. After all, she hadn’t been disgust
He made the promise without even the slightest hesitation. It was much better than telling Felicity that he was actually Ordinary Man. But now wasn’t the time for that. Now was the time for Felicity to ask her fans to look for Giya. After he descended the stairs, the other could see that Gerald clearly had something weighing on his mind. As he paced around slowly, both Felicia and Quade followed closely behind him. Felicia kept alternating between poking Quade and nudging her head toward Gerald’s back. It was clear that Quade wanted to say something to Gerald. Quade, however, definitely looked like he didn’t dare to go up to Gerald. “Quade, it’s really no big deal. Go ahead and talk to Gerald about it!” said Tammy as she sighed, looking at the two. She couldn’t bear seeing them act so sneakily behind Gerald anymore. Gerald heard his name being called and he turned around. Behind him, he saw Felicia poking Quade while both of them stared back. Gerald was slightly confu
“Sharon, you- You! How dare you slap me! Hayward this b*tch just slapped me!” While she said that, Lilian looked at Hayward while cupping a hand over her hurt cheek. However, Hayward only averted his gaze. It was clear whose side he was on. “I… I see… So that’s how it is… To think that I was that blind before to not be able to see what kind of person you really were…” Lilian’s voice was quivering. She then turned around and ran away in tears. Sharon slammed her fork and spoon on the table. She was in no mood to enjoy her meal anymore after such a mess. Soon after, both of them left the restaurant. ‘What a pity to see two best friends fighting like enemies now…’ Gerald thought to himself. From what had played out before him, Gerald could get the gist of what had happened among the three. It would seem that Lilian and Sharon were both getting more assertive over Hayward because of the properties that he now owned. In the past when Hayward was still poor, they never tre
