Chapter 678“…Ah, is that so?” Hearing that, both Gerald and Queta were slightly disappointed. Barry himself frowned while saying, “You mentioned that despite them being a powerful family, all news regarding them disappeared in a single night, correct? I wonder what drastic changes happened back then… Could the Fendersons have simply gone bankrupt?” “That’s quite impossible. If they had truly gone bankrupt, how could they have silenced the reporters from reporting about the incident?” replied Gerald as he shook his head. Mr. Wace smiled after hearing what Gerald had to say. “Mr. Crawford’s right. For those from the older generation like me, we believe that the Fenderson family didn’t actually fall into bankruptcy. Instead, we think that they underwent the exact opposite of that. Rather than going bankrupt, the family instead amplified in power, or at least that’s what we assume. Regardless, the family never left the Salford Province, and they still reside here to this very da
By linking the new information with the clues he had previously discovered, Gerald could sense that it was just as Mr. Wace had said. The Fendersons were still powerful, yet they seemed like they were hiding from something. Gerald also felt that he could inadvertently alert the enemy if he acted rashly by directly inquiring the girl about it. If that were to happen, he would only gain the complete opposite of what he desired. As he came up with something in his mind, Gerald then asked, “Does she go to school daily and attend all her lessons on time?” “Well she doesn’t really go to school daily. However, when there’s a lesson in her schedule, she’ll be sure to attend alongside at least one of her friends. Are you looking for her? I’ll warn you ahead of time that she’s extremely unpleasant to be around with. It’s near impossible for anyone to even make a move on her. You know, in the past, several rich heirs who felt like they were rich and powerful enough tried to gain her affect
“It’s you?”“It’s you?”Mila and the girl spoke in unison. The both of us obviously did not expect to run into each other.“Alice, who is she? Why does she look so familiar?”One of the girls asked curiously.The leader of the girls was none other than Alice.“Oh! She is Mila, the only student from our university who managed to secure an internship in the Hong Kong Television Station!” Alice replied a little enviously.All of them were from the Department of Broadcasting and Hosting in Mayberry University. Therefore, Alice naturally had the opportunity to come and learn here too.However, a team of thirty people would be assigned to television stations and also several newspaper departments based on a certain percentage. Only those with the best scores and results would be given the best learning opportunities.“Oh! I know, Alice! Is she your ex-boyfriend’s current girlfriend?”Several girls who were standing aside suddenly began looking at Mila with a different expression in
However, Alice only came to a realization after she came out of the circle in Mayberry City.It turned out that the world was really very big.Gerald was not the only person in this world who had that kind of worth and value.Therefore, Alice’s feelings for Gerald began to fade and she no longer had such strong feelings for him anymore.“Ahhh! A cruise ship!”At this time, one of Alice’s friends who was standing beside her suddenly spoke as she started jumping excitedly. “That is Mr. Yan’s cruise ship! Alice, Mr. Yan is driving his luxury cruise ship to pick us up!”There was a very luxurious cruise ship on the sea at this moment.A young man dressed in a bathrobe was holding a glass of red wine in his hand as he stood aboard the cruise ship.This should be the Mr. Yan that the girls were talking about.“Mr. Yan is really handsome!”“That’s right! Alice is really very blessed! It was originally a very simple tea party, but Alice actually got acquainted with Mr. Yan there. A
The group of people was all surprised by the sound. When they looked up, they saw about a dozen of the top and most luxurious cruise ships appearing on the surface of the sea in the dim night.Why was it the top and most luxurious?This was because when they saw Mr. Yan’s cruise ship, they already thought that it was the most luxurious cruise ship that they had ever seen. However, looking at the dozens of cruise ships on the sea now, it seemed as though those cruise ships were all as dazzling and incredible as a galaxy battleship!It was an extraordinary scene.“Oh my god! How much would one of those cruise ships cost?”The girls could not help but squeal in excitement.Even Mila was taken aback at this time.Mr. Yan was even more shocked and stunned. He was in a complete daze.“Mr. Yan, are all of those cruise ships for the Cruise Ship Festival tonight? We are really very excited now!”The girl asked Mr. Yan as she grabbed his arm excitedly.That’s right. After all, only tho
After that, the middle-aged man walked past them directly.After that, he came before the surprised Mila in a very respectful manner.“Miss Mila, the eldest young lady sent me here to pick you up!”The middle-aged man bowed very deeply and he was very polite to Mila. He naturally knew how Mila looked like and where she was waiting at this time.“Pick…pick me up?”Mila looked at the dozens of cruise ships that were docking and she was seriously stunned.Gerald’s sister Jessica, was really rich!“Of course, Miss Mila. We came here to specially pick you up today. I am really sorry to keep you waiting for a long time!”As soon as she heard the steward’s words, the girl who was mocking Mila before this was so stunned that her mouth was hanging wide open!She had been mocking her and making fun of her just now. As a result, she simply did not care about the Cruise Ship Festival at all.Mr. Yan finally understood that it was no wonder why Mila was so cold and indifferent towards him
They watched Mila leave.The girls had already stopped talking. Aside from feeling very envious, there was also a hint of jealousy in their eyes.Only Alice had a very complicated mood at this time.If only she had just focused on a person’s character from the very beginning.If that was the case, she would have chosen to get into a relationship with Gerald back then.After all, she had never been in love before at that time. She wanted to get into a relationship. That was the reason why she had asked Naomi to introduce a guy to her.Naomi even called her the night before her birthday just to talk to her about Gerald.“Alice, just meet him. He will also come for my birthday party tomorrow. How do I put this? He is a very dedicated and loyal person. He is also very handsome. After all, this will be your first time falling in love. Therefore, you should look for an honest and good man so that you can keep him under control! If that is the case, then Gerald will certainly be the be
Mila hurriedly nodded.“Ahhh? She is Mila? Godbrother’s girlfriend?”That girl also ran over to Mila immediately.She was biting her lip out of curiosity as she looked Mila up and down.She looked like she was about eighteen years old. She was very adorable and she was also quite beautiful.“My name is Melinda. Hello, Mila!”Melinda said as she shook hands with Mila.It seemed as though the both of them had a pretty good impression of each other.Jessica was obviously looking for Mila for some reason. So, Melinda and Yoel did not say much and Mila went in directly.“The eldest young lady took Melinda and Yoel in as her godsister and godbrother. Yoel is in a much better situation compared to Melinda, who is a little more pitiful. She was abandoned when she was three years old and Miss Crawford adopted her and brought her back with her. She loved her and doted on her very much. Melinda is usually very naughty but she actually has a very kind heart!”The steward hurriedly explai
