Chapter 19 Valeryâs Plan Gerald was unwilling to argue with this shrew. He ignored her and turned to leave.
When he arrived at a breakfast shop, he asked for a cup of coffee and bread. He looked through his phone and ate.
âI know you will be here.â
Gerald looked up and found Trevon sitting in front of him, looking at him speechlessly.
Gerald often came to this shop, so he was not surprised that Trevon could find him.
âWhy do you come here instead of going to work?â Gerald asked in surprise.
âIf you donât tell me what is going on, I wonât go to work. When I saw that our new bossâs name was Gerald, I was stunned. Tell me what is going on. Also, the things that happened to Simeon are caused by you, right?â Trevon mumbled.
Simeon was his foreman. Since the last time Gerald let Keira deal with Simeon, Gerald no longer paid attention to Simeon.
âWhat happened to him?â Gerald asked.
â
âDonât you know? Several real estate companies are going to sue him. The compensation is a large amount of money.â Trevon grabbed a piece of bread and stuffed it into his mouth. Then he added, âYesterday, Simeon called me and asked me to talk to you.â
Trevon did not seem to be awkward with the change in Geraldâs identity. They were still friends.
âHe deserves it. And the project he contracted indeed has some problems. This is undeniable. He can only blame himself,â
Gerald said calmly.
Trevon curled his lips and said, âI didnât come to find you for this. I am asking you what happened. How did you suddenly become the boss of Glory World?â
Gerald let out a breath. He felt that he didnât need to lie to Trevon.
âI canât remember everything that happened three years ago. You know about this, right?â Gerald said.
âYes.â Trevon nodded and added, âAnd then?â
âActually, I am a very rich person. Suddenly, I recovered my memory and found the bank card. I checked it and found that there was a lot of money in it. In order to make Irene and her family regret it, I bought Glory World and deliberately let Vivian find out that I am rich,â Gerald explained simply.
As for the Watchman, he naturally could not tell Trevon.
âYouâre taking revenge.â Trevonâs eyes lit up.
Gerald smiled and said, âI thought so before, but now, my hatred for them is not so deep.â
After recovering his memory, his vision had indeed changed a lot. He did not belong here in the first place.
In any case, Ireneâs father saved Geraldâs life. That house was nothing to Gerald now. He could just treat it as a repayment of gratitude.
Of course, Gerald could not completely forget the grievances he had suffered in the past three years. No matter what, it was necessary to teach Irene and her mother a lesson.
âYou should go to work. Although I am the boss, it is not good for you to skip work all the time. Moreover, you have to Tearn something from here. Although I will not expel you, itâs not good if youâre criticized by others,â Gerald said.
âI know, but I have taken a day off today. The company directly paid me a salary of 80 thousand dollars yesterday. I canât wait. I have already sent Liam to the hospital for surgery yesterday. Today, I ran out to find you when he was asleep,â Trevon said.
Gerald nodded and said, âAlright, Iâll go with you to see Liam later!â
At the same time, at the entrance of Glory World, a bald middleâaged man in a suit was holding a briefcase and a bottle of good wine in both hands. He was wandering anxiously at the door.
Soon, a beautiful woman ran over. When she saw the middleâaged man, she asked in surprise, âMr. Bennett, why did you come to find me?â
The person in front of her was Mike Bennett, Ireneâs uncle, Maryâs brother.
When Mike saw Vivian, he smiled and quickly said, âVivian, hereâs the thing. I originally wanted to see Mr. Slater. Previously, Glory World had always been in charge of transporting our companyâs goods. Yesterday, Mr. Slater suddenly told me that we will terminate the cooperation. I went to look for other logistics companies. But their prices are too high.â
Vivianâs expression changed slightly.
She suddenly remembered what Gerald said to them at the door when Gerald got divorced that day. He said, âYou will regret it.â
And now, Gerald had become Vivianâs boss, and the company had stopped working with Mike!
Vivian didnât know exactly what was going on, but she knew that Gerald was completely different from the person she had known.
Vivian smiled bitterly and said, âI canât help you with this matter. Iâm just an ordinary employee of the company.â
âI met Mr. Slater at the door just now, but he didnât want to talk to me. I am thinking about whether you can take me to the company. Iâll go find Mr. Slater,â Mike said.
Vivian let out a breath and looked at Mike. âMr. Bennett, although I donât know whatâs going on, this is indeed the truth. Mr. Slater is no longer our boss. Our new boss... is Gerald!â
âGerald? Which Gerald?â Mike asked.
Vivian smiled bitterly, âWho else could it be? Ireneâs exâhusband.â
Mikeâs expression suddenly changed. He couldnât believe it.
Vivian said, âWhy donât you go find Irene and her mom? But I donât think it will work. We treated Gerald so rudely before.â
âHe is taking revenge on us!â Mike said with a pale face.
In fact, this matter had nothing to do with Gerald.
Yesterday, Gerald told Bradley to take care of Glory World. Then, Bradley immediately called Tyrone to talk about cooperation.
When Tyrone received the phone call, he was so scared that he wet his pants. Bradley was the richest man in Los Angeles!
Bradley has lots of business. After receiving this news, Tyrone quickly made a judgment and directly stopped some of the less important businesses, leaving the resources to cooperate with Bradley.
Mike was one of the less important ones!
âTo be honest, I am also in a mess right now.â Vivianâs beautiful face was full of worry as she said, âIâm working for the company now, but I feel like I might lose my job any moment!â
After eating with Trevon, Gerald went to the hospital with him to see Liam. And then Gerald said goodbye to Trevon and took a taxi back home!
Now, he didnât need to work in the factory anymore. And he was the boss of Glory World. Valery hadnât arranged any mission for him for the time being. Gerald did feel a bit bored.
When he returned home, it was already noon. Valery and Macy had finished cooking. When Gerald returned, Valery glanced at him and said, âYou are quite free.â
Gerald chuckled and said, âI have nothing to do, and I havenât returned to Night Watch. There is nothing for me to do.â
Valery rolled her eyes at Gerald and said, âYou donât need to go back to Night Watch.â
âHuh?â Gerald asked in surprise, âWhat do you mean?â
âYou disappeared for three years. I just called the boss. This is also his intention. In these three years, whether it is the Night Watch or other people, they all think that you have completely disappeared. So you donât need to be exposed for the time being.
In this city, it is easier for you to cooperate with us as a spy to carry out some tasks,â Valery said.
Geraldâs eyes lit up. âThatâs true. I will have more freedom!â
âWhat about you guys? Howâs the mission?â Gerald asked.
Valery said, âItâs being carried out according to the plan. Itâs time to get you something to do.â
Beside him, Macy was eating when she suddenly coughed.
Gerald didnât care about it too much. His eyes lit up, and he said, âHave you found their people?â
Valery replied, âNo. But we know their goal is to kidnap or kill Audrey to force Bradley to join their organization. You know, Bradley knows our existence. When we first arrived, we had already talked to Bradley. The most important thing now is to ensure Audreyâs safety.â
Gerald asked, âSo?â
âSo we need to send someone who isnât known by Blood Lotus to protect Audrey.â Valery took a bite of the food and said calmly.
âSo do you want me to be Audreyâs bodyguard?â Gerald asked in surprise.
He would not refuse this kind of mission. In the past, when he was on a mission, he did many things like going to be a bodyguard.
âNot a bodyguard. If we send a bodyguard, itâs too obvious.â Valery added, âThey will probably guess that youâre our people, so they will choose to attack when youâre not with her.â
At this point, Valery looked at Gerald and said, âYou have disappeared for three years. In Los Angeles, you are just an ordinary person. So no one will think too much about you appearing by Audreyâs side now. Moreover, you will be her husband...â
âWait...â Gerald felt that something was wrong. He quickly said, âWhat did you say?â
âI said that youâll be her husband!â Then Valery added calmly, âI told you before that after we arrived in Los Angeles, we had already communicated with Bradley. So he organized such a gathering and announced that anyone could pursue Audrey. In the end, you will win and marry Audrey! You become the sonâinâlaw of the Herman family.â
As she spoke, she looked at Gerald, whose eyes widened, and said, âIn this way, you can be with Audrey, and even sleep in the same bed as her. You can completely protect her everywhere!â
âI am not that ordinary now. I bought a company. My photo is still posted on that company!â Gerald rubbed his head and said.
âThatâs good. This company is a gift from Bradley!â Valery said in a calm tone.
Gerald frowned, this way, all people would think that Gerald was really a freeloader!
