Chapter 100 You Are Just Jealous Due to the angle and the fact that Drake was not in a good mood, the two did not notice Gerald.
âYou know them?â Audrey saw Gerald take photos and could not help but ask.
Gerald nodded. âThat man is my cousinâs boyfriend.â
Audrey stilled and said, âThen why are you taking photos here instead of beating him up?â
Gerald rubbed his nose and said, âThings are a bit complicated. You know my situation. After returning to Sacramento, many people have a great prejudice against me. If I tell them directly, they wonât listen. They would even think that I am harming them.â
Audrey froze. Then she thought of when she and Justin or Tyrone had eaten in restaurants, they had been called rapists.
She looked at Gerald and gritted her teeth. âGerald, this place is so hostile to you. Why donât you come back to Los Angeles with us? Sacramento is indeed a big city, but Los Angeles is also prosperous. We will live a lot more comfortably in Los Angeles.â
Gerald turned and looked at Audrey. He couldnât help but want to touch her head, but Audrey dodged this time.
Gerald smiled, âI do not belong to any city. I am just a vagabond!â
âFunnyâ Audrey looked at him with a fake smile.
In fact, Gerald did think that way. Ever since he became a Night Watch, he had been wandering in many cities to carry out missions.
Although he had returned to the city, he was just a powerful spy planted by the Night Watch.
He would continue to carry out missions. As long as a new mission was given, he might leave Sacramento and go to any city!
Moreover, he would return to the Night Watch.
Night Watch members were all vagabonds.
And he didnât know when he would die. When Gerald had been at his prime three years ago, he had almost died and lost his memory for three years.
The Night Watch hid in the dark, guarding the peace of this world Audrey did not understand.
âAlright, you are a vagabond,â Audrey pouted and said.
Gerald chuckled, âWhat should we do next? Itâs quite boring this afternoon.â
âLetâs watch a movie!â Audrey said.
Gerald nodded. The two went to the cinema to watch a movie. Then Gerald thought about buying a gift for his grandmother, so he took Audrey to go shopping together However, he did not know what to buy.
After thinking about it, Gerald decided to ask Leandro for a house and give it to his grandmother At around five oâclock, Doreen called. Doreen was off work and planned to hang out with Audrey and the others.
Gerald had not had a good meal with his parents after coming back for so long. He did not choose to go with them and took a taxi back home!
When he reached home, it was almost six oâclock. Just as he opened the door, he heard some angry voices coming from inside.
âMason! You guys are too shameless!â
Gerald walked into the room and saw that his aunt Lilia and Jolie were both sitting on the sofa.
Lilia was furious.
âDo you think it is something that Gerald knows Jessica? It was not easy for Ms. Lange to be willing to see Drake. Just because I misspoke yesterday, you asked Gerald to call Jessica to refuse Drakeâs project? Lilia growled angrily.
When Gerald heard that, he frowned!
Obviously, Jessica was not interested in Drakeâs project at all.
Gerald felt Drake was a little disgusting!
Drake was not here. Obviously, Lilia and Jolie were called over by Drake, but Drake did not show up!
Seeing Gerald, Lilia said, âGerald, you still have the nerve to come back?â What, as a rapist, you are having a hard time, so you want us to suffer, too? Why did you call Jessica and ask her to refuse.
Drake?â
Her voice was loud, making Geraldâs ears hurt.
Gerald frowned, pulled out a stool, and sat down. Then he picked up Masonâs cigarette case on the coffee table and lit a cigarette.
Then he looked at Lilia and said calmly, âLilia, this has nothing to do with me. If not for my phone call yesterday, Drake wouldnât have seen Jessica.â
âStop pretending. Donât you know what kind of person you are?â Lilia said loudly. âYou are just upset that Iâve found a good son-in-law You donât want him to get rich. Do you think I donât know what you are thinking? You are jealous!â
If not for caring about his parents emotions, Gerald would have kicked Lilia out long ago.
Gerald didnât care if Lilia was family.
For those who were good to him, he would pay them back double, but for those who were bad to him, he just did not want to deal with them!
He took a sip, looked at Lilia, and said, âAll right, whatever you think!â
Lilia still wanted to say something, but Jolie gritted her teeth and stood up. âMom, stop talking!â
Lilia froze for a moment and then looked at Jolie. Jolie stood up and looked at Gerald, saying, âGerald, letâs talk alone!â
Gerald looked at his cousin, who used to follow him around, and nodded. âOkay!â
âLetâs go down!â Jolie pursed her lips and said.
Gerald nodded. Jolie walked out first. Gerald looked at Lilia and followed Jolie out After entering the elevator, both of them were silent. After a while, Jolie said, âThank you!â
âHuh?â Gerald looked at her in surprise.
Ever since Gerald returned to Sacramento, Jolie had shown great hostility towards him. He didnât expect that she would actually say thank you to him.
âToday, we went to Goldsun Group. Ms. Lange told me everything. We were able to meet her because you called her,â Jolie said.
Gerald smiled and said, âItâs nothing. Donât take it to heart.â
The elevator reached the first floor. Jolie walked out, and Gerald quickly followed.
After Jolie walked for a while, she asked again, âAfter you came back, we have always been so prejudiced against you. Why are you still helping us?â
âIf my parents didnât care about you, I wouldnât help you with anything. Moreover...â Gerald said honestly, âI really donât like Drake. It doesnât matter what you think of me. We used to have a good relationship. I have to remind you that Drake is not suitable for you!â
Jolie frowned.
In the office of the Zumthor family in Sacramento, there was a large group of people sitting!
Henley sat afar, his expression sour It had been two days, and his family didnât mention his marriage to Doreen. He was anxious.
But he did not dare to mention it In the past two days, his family had encountered a great crisis.
First, their cooperation with New Bank ended.
Second, their project was snatched!
Those two things happened suddenly, and the Zumthor family was still reeling Corbin sat in the main seat of the conference room. His face was gloomy as he swept his gaze over everyone and said, âNow, we have discussed cooperation with other banks and obtained two projects! The situation has been stabilized!â
If this had happened before, the Zumthor family would have suffered!
But now, the Zumthor family was supported by Blood Lotus which controlled many rich people in this world. Those people were naturally connected to each other With the help of Blood Lotus, the Zumthor family quickly stabilized the situation!
âBut this is the first time we have suffered such a big loss!â Corbin glanced coldly at Henley and said, âHave you found out the owner of the Diamond Card from New Bank?â
âKeira was unwilling to tell me,â Henley said with a bitter smile.
Corbin sneered. He looked at Henley and said, âNo matter what method you use, make her speak.
Remember, any method is acceptable!â
Henley nodded. When he thought of Keira, a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes as he said, âI understand!â
