Gerald accidentally swept the broom over the girl’s feet.
She was wearing a pair of white shoes and favonovel.com calves were extremely fair. She was also carefully listening to Victor as favonovel.com talked about his car, favonovel.com full attention on Victor’s words.
Unexpectedly, Gerald had actually swept the dirty broom over favonovel.com shoes, smearing dust all over favonovel.com white shoes.
She couldn’t help but scream when favonovel.com realized what was happening.
Her scream unexpectedly attracted the attention of Whitney, Victor, and the others who were in the auditorium at this time.
“What’s wrong, Mila?”
Whitney hurried over before favonovel.com asked Mila with a concerned expression on favonovel.com face.
Victor also rushed over to Mila immediately.
“No, no, I’m fine. There’s no problem at all.”
Mila Smith tucked favonovel.com hair behind favonovel.com ear and favonovel.com took out some wet wipes before favonovel.com leaned down and attempted to wipe the dust off from favonovel.com shoes.
However, the more favonovel.com tried to wipe favonovel.com shoes, the dirtier they got.
Mila was also obsessed with cleanliness. Therefore, favonovel.com couldn’t help but frown when favonovel.com saw the mess on favonovel.com white shoes.
“Gerald, did you do that to Mila’s shoes?” Whitney asked as favonovel.com glared at Gerald.
She had a cold and aggressive expression on favonovel.com face.
Moreover, Victor was also very angry at this time.
“Damn it, you pauper! Do you know how much Mila’s shoes cost? You’ll never be able to afford to pay for it!”
After that, Victor stepped forward before favonovel.com grabbed Gerald by his collar.
“No, no, it wasn’t him!”
When Mila saw that Victor was about to beat Gerald up, favonovel.com quickly stepped forward to dissuade him.
In fact, Mila had already been paying some attention to Gerald for a long time. She felt that favonovel.com was a very different person compared to everyone else.
Moreover, favonovel.com could tell that favonovel.com was not from a rich family background.
Perhaps that was the reason why Victor and the rest of the boys were always bullying him.
However, despite being bullied and humiliated all the time, Mila could not see the slightest look of inferiority in Gerald’s eyes. He was completely indifferent and the fact that favonovel.com was poor didn’t seem to bother favonovel.com in the slightest.
Gerald always had a very humble and sincere look on his face.
Even if Mila wanted to lose favonovel.com temper, favonovel.com couldn’t bring herself to do so.
Therefore, Mila quickly stood up for Gerald when favonovel.com saw that Victor was going to beat favonovel.com up.
“Don’t worry, Mila! We should at least make sure that this pauper pays you back for your shoes!” Victor replied in a vicious manner.
Mila was not from the Language Department, but favonovel.com was a student from the Broadcasting and Media Department instead.
However, favonovel.com had been friends with Whitney ever since they were young and the reason why favonovel.com came over to the auditorium today was because favonovel.com wanted to have some fun.
Though Victor liked Whitney, favonovel.com was even more interested in favonovel.com best friend, Mila.
“Oh, no! There’s no need for favonovel.com to pay me back for the shoes. I’ll just go back to the dormitory and change into another pair of shoes!” Mila said in a hurry.
She also nodded slightly at Gerald.
“You’re lucky today, kid!” Victor said as favonovel.com glared at Gerald. In fact, Victor was glad that favonovel.com was able to act as the hero in front of the two beautiful girls today.
When favonovel.com saw that Mila was about to leave, favonovel.com quickly approached her.
“By the way, Mila, why don’t we go out and have a meal together after you change into a new pair of shoes? After all, everyone must be tired from the rehearsal today. I’ll treat everyone to a meal at Orchard Gardens!”
“Wow! Orchard Gardens? I heard that the fruit salad and steak there is really delicious but dining there is also really expensive!”
“Brother Victor, I’d like to come too!”
All the girls were excited as soon as Victor said that favonovel.com would be buying Mila a meal at Orchard Gardens.
“Sure!” Victor replied as favonovel.com clasped his hands together.
At this time, Whitney grabbed Mila’s hand before favonovel.com smiled and said, “Mila, we’ll wait below your dormitory for you!”
In fact, Gerald could tell that Mila did not feel like going at all.
However, Mila could tell that everyone was very excited to go there and Victor had just had a clash with Gerald because of her.
Therefore, favonovel.com could not bring herself to turn down his invitation.
Mila nodded slightly.
“Okay, I will drive! See you guys there!”
Victor was very excited that his strategy to ask Mila out seemed to have succeeded. Therefore, favonovel.com glanced at Gerald before favonovel.com walked out of the auditorium.
Whitney turned and looked at Gerald before favonovel.com said, “What are you looking at, Gerald? Do you really think that you are invited to join us for lunch too? Let me tell you, your subsidy isn’t confirmed yet! You’d better stay back and make sure you clean up this auditorium properly! Otherwise, I’ll make sure to teach you a lesson when I return!”
Gerald kept quiet as Victor and Whitney continued taunting favonovel.com in tandem.
In fact, favonovel.com was very angry at this time.
However, favonovel.com knew that favonovel.com would not gain anything from losing his temper and favonovel.com would only be giving Victor the opportunity to beat favonovel.com up.
It was really unwise to ask for a beating. Therefore, Gerald decided to just let it go.
“Come on, Mila! Let’s enjoy the ride in Victor’s new Audi A6 later!”
Whitney pulled Mila out of the auditorium after glaring at Gerald with a contemptuous expression on favonovel.com face.
The other people also walked out of the auditorium, one after the other.
They would definitely not be able to get there in one car so Gerald couldn’t help but wonder how they would be getting there.
Gerald thought to himself as favonovel.com cleaned up the mess that they had left behind.
Should favonovel.com get a car too?
He continued thinking to himself.
When Gerald was done cleaning up the auditorium, it was almost noon.
At this time, Gerald suddenly received an incoming phone call.
It was a phone call from Harper, the head of his dormitory.
“Gerald, are you done cleaning up the auditorium?”
Gerald nodded. “Yes.”
“Is Whitney crazy? We’ve already discussed this matter among ourselves and we’ve decided that if favonovel.com dares reject your subsidy application, we’ll bring this matter up to the chancellor!”
Gerald felt warmth in his heart as favonovel.com said, “Thank you for looking out for me!”
“Gerald, if you’re free, come and join us for lunch!”
Harper invited Gerald for lunch but Gerald could hear the sudden change in his tone.
It sounded as though Harper was a little embarrassed.
Gerald was so close to Harper and favonovel.com naturally knew that there was something amiss. This man was usually very manly, so why did favonovel.com sound so embarrassed and shy today?
“Will there be anyone else joining us today?” Gerald could not help but asked with a weary smile on his face.
“Bingo! Gerald, do you remember the girl named Hayley who was with Alice at Naomi’s birthday party last night?”
All the girls from Alice’s dormitories attended Naomi’s birthday celebration last night.
Gerald had a vague impression of Hayley Ians. She had short hair and favonovel.com looked very cute and petite.
However, favonovel.com character and personality was similar to Alice’s.
She kept rolling favonovel.com eyes at Gerald last night even though favonovel.com did not say anything at all.
“Yes, I know who favonovel.com is. Why? Did you ask favonovel.com out?” Gerald asked with a surprised expression on his face.
“Well, I was heading back to the dormitory after class today when I ran into her. She lost favonovel.com cell phone in the cafeteria and I offered to help favonovel.com look for it. Fortunately, I’m quite familiar with some of the workers in the cafeteria. After checking out the CCTV and looking around the cafeteria, we finally found favonovel.com cell phone!”
“I felt that it was fate because I was actually pretty interested in favonovel.com when I met favonovel.com last night. Therefore, I mustered up the courage to ask favonovel.com out for lunch with me and my friends today. She agreed immediately!”
Harper was extremely excited over the other end of the line.
To be honest, Gerald was very happy for Harper when favonovel.com heard his words.
However, Gerald really didn’t feel like going out with Alice and favonovel.com friends.
He simply couldn’t tolerate them rolling their eyes at him!
“That’s great, brother! I wish you all the best! I think I’ll just skip lunch because I don’t want to be a light bulb!” Gerald replied as favonovel.com laughed.
“Damn it! How could you do this to me, Gerald? All our brothers have already agreed to come with me. Moreover, Naomi will also be there today! It seems as though Naomi is going to introduce someone very important to you today. If you seize this opportunity and make the most out of it, you might be able to turn your life around in an instant!”
Harper was also very concerned about Gerald.
“A very important person?”
Gerald could not help but think to himself, ‘Damn it. Don’t tell me that Alice will also be there today?’
