After years of bitter rivalry, even the smallest conflict could lead to explosive consequences.Mila was on the verge of losing it… but there was nothing she could say.“Mila!”Gerald had been watching from a distance for a while now. Now that Mila was losing, it was time to join the fray.“Ah! Gerald!” Mila leaped in shock when she saw him.He wasn’t supposed to catch her like this with her weakness in full view!“Whoa, Mila, who’s this?” Irene looked him up and down. Seeing his plain clothes, a smile bloomed across her face. All her own friends were people of note. Mila, on the other hand, was keeping this kind of company…And the casual way he called out to her… Did that mean that something was going on between them?“This is my friend, Gerald. What about it?” Mila announced without reservation.“Oho, and here I was thinking that this might be your brother-in-law, Irene!” Kenneth was holding out his hand to show off his watch, a golden Rolex, by way of challenging Gerald to a cockfi
“What did you say? Wealthy heir, are you?! Hahaha!” Irene was thoroughly enjoying herself now.Mila had always been untouchable, beyond anyone’s reach… to think that she would have picked such an oddball as her boyfriend!What a moron.Kenneth was sneering as well. “In that case, Gerald, if I may be so bold, what sort of work do you do? Which field is your family involved in?” As he said this, he brandished his wristwatch again, as though worried people might fail to notice his Rolex.Gerald regarded the two of them coldly. “You don’t deserve to hear about my family business.”“Bwahahahahaha!” Clutching their bellies, they burst into laughter.Mila tugged gently on his shirt, pleading for him to stop talking.She had said all of that just now because she had been in a panic. She hadn’t expected Gerald to take the ball and run with it.Mila was well aware that Gerald came from modest means and was always getting bullied too. It was just that he had won a lottery later on.Still, lottery
“Oho, you must be Kenneth’s girlfriend, Irene! My car is right over there, haha! Look all you want, it’s nothing special. Half a million, barely worth anything! After you’ve finished your inspection, let’s all go grab a bite to eat!” Saying this, Sean led them off jovially.“Hey, hey! Mila, don’t you want to see it too? Oh, that’s right… best not to, perhaps. Even if you saw it, it’s not like your boyfriend could afford one for himself. Not like Kenneth, who has a Ferrari. Also, also, Mila… Do you need some spending money? I hope you understand. If it were not for Sean offering to treat us to a meal, I’d ask Kenneth to give you guys a lift. However, since we’ll be leaving with Sean in a bit, if you need some cash for a taxi, all you need to do is ask!” Irene hugged herself and giggled.She absolutely had to capitalize on every advantage.Coming from anyone else, Mila wouldn’t be troubled. But this girl, whom she had always beaten at everything over all these years, to finally be lordin
“Mr. Crawford, here to accompany your girlfriend for her driving test, are you?”That day, Sean had already discovered the truth about Gerald.Just imagine... Two and a half million dollars, all without breaking a sweat.That was true wealth.Sean had also heard other rumors. Although they were not directly related to the mysterious Mr. Crawford, he now knew that the manager of the Lamborghini dealership was someone of note within the Mayberry group.Even he had shown so much deference toward Gerald. It was clear that he was not your ordinary guy!“No, no… we’re both taking the test!” Although both these people had been rude to him before, seeing this well-mannered reception now, he responded with courtesy in kind.Irene and Kenneth were utterly confounded by all of this.This was Sean they were talking about?! Why was he showing such reverence for a penniless wretch like Gerald?!How could they not be surprised by this?“In that case, how about this, sir? I just so happen to be headed
These words made Gerald feel very happy inside.“But Gerald, I feel that you are hiding something from me. That Sean does not look like an ordinary person at a single glance. Why is he so respectful to you? No, he is not only respectful but it seems as though he is flattering you.”Mila could not take it anymore. She felt that Gerald was becoming even more and more confusing.In fact, this was exactly the reason why Gerald eventually became friends with Sean.During their entire conversation, as long as Sean did not mention it, Gerald would never say that he bought the Reventon.It made Gerald feel that he knew how to act accordingly. Gerald learned about this.At this time, Gerald simply smiled before he said, “Didn’t I say this in person? I am actually a top rich second-generation. However, I really do not want to abandon my current lifestyle and friends. That is why I have always lived a low-key life. Of course, Sean has to be very polite to me!”“Mere puff!” Mila smiled as s
Alice was always a little awkward whenever she saw Gerald now.After all, who was the person who looked down on Gerald the most in the past? It was Alice.Now, the pathetic pauper that she used to despise could most likely be a rich young master.His identity and status were not that simple.In short, Gerald could be a really incredible figure.Alice wanted to get closer to him.“Well, it is Hayley’s birthday today!” Gerald replied as he smiled.He was not a person who held a grudge, let alone seek revenge on a person who was making peace with him.Hayley and Harper looked at the both of them before exchanging glances with one another. It seemed as though they wanted to matchmake them on purpose.At this time, they greeted everyone and welcomed them into the room in the manor.When they were allocating seats, Harper and Hayley had already obviously discussed this in advance. They deliberately arranged for Alice and Gerald to be seated together.As for Benjamin and the others
”It’s okay, cousin brother. Just sit down. After all, I really cannot bring myself to announce the big surprise today if you are not here!”Jacelyn smiled and her eyes suddenly turned cold as she glanced at Gerald who was in the room with them.She had a smug and arrogant look on her face.“Jacelyn, what the hell is this big surprise? You have already been keeping us in suspense for such a long time. Hurry up and tell us!”“Yes, what is it about?”All of her roommates were already impatient.When Gerald saw that Jacelyn’s gaze was fixed on him, he suddenly understood something.Oh my! Was the so-called big surprise directly related to him?“Of course! I am going to tell everyone about it now!”Jacelyn smiled triumphantly as Danny glared coldly at Gerald.“I will start with you!”Jacelyn walked directly over to Gerald before giving him a slap across his face.He was stunned. This woman was really dying to be taught a lesson!Gerald stood up as he stared at Jacelyn.D*mn it
The person who stood up was Hayley.At this time, she had a very complicated feeling in her heart.She only knew that Gerald was Harper’s good brother.However, she really did not expect Gerald to hide everything from them or to deceive them for so long.Therefore, she felt that it was necessary for them to tell everyone whatever she knew.And Harper was the one who told her this.“There is a woman who bought clothes for Gerald and she spent more than fifteen thousand dollars on it! In fact, the clothes that I am wearing today are the clothes that the young woman had given to Gerald. After that, Gerald gave it to Harper!”“Hayley, what are you talking about?”Harper was anxious.In fact, Harper had been joking around with Hayley in the past.He said that his brother, Gerald really had a way with women. He could get them to buy him anything that he needed without even blinking his eyes at all. He also mentioned that Gerald could have been kept by that woman. Harper joked that
