Chapter 489: Chapter 490

Chapter 490 Handle Your Own Trouble Gerald’s attitude was arrogant.

Anyone who knew what the woman had done would be mad. What Gerald didn’t expect was that she actually had the courage to return here.

Hearing Gerald’s words, Wesley slightly sighed and continued to smoke.

Gerald looked at Wesley. It was clear that Wesley still had feelings for her.

After all, every man had a woman he could not forget.

“You...” The people who came with the woman were stunned.

Gerald looked at them indifferently. At the same time, he took out his phone, pretending to call the police.

These ordinary people did not worth Gerald bothering. It was enough as long as he achieved his goal.

When the woman saw this, her expression changed slightly. She looked at Leila and Wesley and said, ‘Leila, I know that I was wrong before. No matter what, you think about my words carefully!”

After saying that, she walked out with her people!

When they left, Gerald patted Leila’s head and said, “Don’t cry. Your eyes are swollen. Shouldn’t you be happy that I’ve come back? Give me a smile!”

Gerald treated Leila as his little sister.

Leila pouted and tried her best to squeeze out a smile, but she couldn’t.

Gerald helped her to the sofa. Then he walked over and closed the door. Gerald looked at Wesley and said, “Wesley, what are you thinking? Do you still want to live with that woman?”

“I don’t want her as my mother!” Leila shouted.

From Gerald’s point of view, Leila’s behavior was absolutely correct. The relationship between Wesley and that woman was completely different from what Gerald had with Irene.

Gerald and Irene had no romantic feelings for each other at all. He took care of Irene to repay her father’s kindness, and the reason why Irene later came to him was for money.

But that woman and Wesley had been married for many years, and they had a child, Leila.

The most important thing was that Wesley seemed to still have feelings for her.

What Leila had said was just out of anger. When they were living in the countryside, Gerald once found that Leila was peeking at that woman’s photos!

Gerald had a terrible impression of that woman. She had been cheating on Wesley even before she left.

However, Gerald didn’t know what Wesley thought about that.

Gerald couldn’t make decisions for them.

Wesley seemed to be in a dilemma. He lit another cigarette and said, “I... don’t know.”

Gerald sighed. He nodded and said, “My suggestion is that you divorce that woman. She is not suitable for you. Of course, it is not necessary to cut off the connection. After all, she is Leila’s biological mother. However, if you still want to live with her, you must make sure that she learned the lesson. So that she won’t dare to do anything like this in the future. But it is only a suggestion. The decision is up to you. Anyway, I will help you. I won’t let those people harass you again.”

“I... will think about it,” Wesley said, “I want to go back to my room and sleep for a while.”

“Okay.” Gerald smiled.

After Wesley left, Leila seemed to have recovered a bit. She looked at Gerald and said, “What mission have you been on recently? Can you tell me?”

In order to shift Leila’s attention, Gerald smiled and began to talk about things in Sin City.

Leila and Wesley both knew that Gerald was a Watchman. So it didn’t hurt that Gerald told Leila some stories about Sin City.

After a while, Leila’s mood got better!

Gerald asked, “Are you used to living here?”

“Yes!” Leila nodded. ‘Now I have gradually adapted to it. It’s just the school that still makes me a little uneasy.

By the way...”

Leila’s eyes suddenly lit up. “There are many rich people in the school you arranged for me. When I first got there, several boys confessed love to me. They are so bold that they are not afraid of the teachers at all!”

Gerald didn’t know what to say. Finally, he cursed, “Damn it! Tell me which brats are they! I will teach them a lesson!”

“Listen to me!” Leila said, “But there are other girls who like those boys. Since I seemed quite plain compared to them, those girls came to bully me, ridicule me, and so on...”

Gerald frowned.

The school Gerald arranged for Leila was the best university in Washington. There surely had a lot of rich people. In such a place, comparison among students was normal!

That was why Gerald had given Leila a credit card. He did not want her to be looked down!

However, what Gerald was worried about still happened.

Leila continued, “One day, I casually put the credit card that you gave me on the table, and people were all shocked. They recognized the card. I didn’t understand what happened at that time, but later, my deskmate explained it to me. Now no one dared to touch me anymore!”

1 Hearing this, Gerald laughed.

“Good job! Next time you get bullied, call Kerr and ask him to help you. He is an expert on this kind of thing!”

Gerald said with a smile.

Leila nodded and said, “Okay!”

Gerald let out a sigh of relief. Just then, his phone rang. Gerald saw that it was a call from Valery. He picked up the phone.

“Hello, Dr. Manning. Do you miss me so soon?”

“You bastard!” A rough voice suddenly sounded from the phone.

When Gerald heard this, his face darkened!

The voice was not Valery’s, it was Blaine’s.

Gerald could not figure it out. Blaine used to be a polite man. But ever since he started surfing the Internet, he had been talking like a tyrant. As the leader of American Night Watch, he should’ve behaved better!

“What?” Gerald asked snappishly.

“Do you know how much trouble you have caused?” Blaine scolded, “You ran to Atlanta and killed Jason, right?”

“Yes!” Gerald said calmly, “He did such disgusting things! Why shouldn’t I kill him?”

“Of course, you should kill him, but you should’ve done better!” Blaine shouted, “This time, you handle your own trouble!”
