Alice hung up the phone immediately.
This misunderstanding was really too much. At first, Alice had truly believed that it was Quinton.
Alice did not question Quinton regarding this matter in detail because favonovel.com did not want Quinton to feel that favonovel.com had agreed to get into a relationship with favonovel.com simply because favonovel.com was feeling grateful toward favonovel.com for his help.
Now, everything was clear.
Quinton had not resolved this matter at all. So, who could it have possibly been?
At this time…
The security guard suddenly received a call from his headset. There was a surprised expression on his face as favonovel.com replied with three respectful ‘yes’s.
His face turned pale immediately.
Right afterward, the security guard bent over before favonovel.com bowed and said, “Dear ladies, I am really sorry. I made a mistake. Your consumption here tonight is all free. You… you can leave now!”
Upon saying that, the security guard remained bent over and did not dare to straighten his back at all.
“This…”
Alice and the rest of the girls were all stunned.
This scene was exactly the same as the last time, aside from the fact that Flynn had not made an appearance here today.
Who was the one who had called for help? Who had this kind of power?
Naomi was also extremely surprised. “I think we should head back to the campus first. We will discuss this matter after we get back to the dormitory.”
Then, Naomi looked at Alice with a worried expression on favonovel.com face.
“Mm… let’s go back first.”
Alice was very confused at this time.
What was the problem?
Who was the one who had been helping them all along?
Everyone was ready to leave the karaoke bar at this time.
“Eh? Where is Gerald?”
Naomi wanted to look for Gerald, but favonovel.com realized that Gerald was nowhere to be found at all.
“Yes! Where is that Gerald? D*mn it! He was just standing behind me just now!”
“Hmph! I bet favonovel.com ran away again because he’s afraid that favonovel.com would have to fork out some money. Isn’t this the same as last time? As soon as favonovel.com realized that something was wrong, favonovel.com hurriedly came up with an excuse to leave and go to the bathroom. He only dared to come back after we had already resolved the problem!” Jacelyn said in contempt.
“No! Gerald is not that kind of person!”
Naomi defended Gerald before favonovel.com continued looking around for him.
Just then, Gerald suddenly opened the door and came into the room.
At the same time, favonovel.com was putting his cell phone back into his pocket.
“Is everything settled? If everything has been settled, let’s leave now. I’ve called for three cabs and they’re already waiting outside!”
Gerald spoke to the group of people lightly.
Then, favonovel.com turned around and left the room.
Everyone in the private room was startled, especially Alice.
She could feel favonovel.com heart beating uncontrollably.
Gerald had already called for three cabs for them. This indicated that favonovel.com already knew that everything would be alright.
It was the same situation as the last time when Gerald had secretly run out during the commotion.
When favonovel.com came back, everything had already been resolved.
Was this simply a coincidence?
Could it be… that the person who had called for help… was none other than Gerald?
How could that be possible?!
“Gerald, stop right there! Tell us the truth now!”
Alice chased after Gerald immediately. At this time, there were already three cabs waiting for them outside the karaoke bar.
Alice ran toward Gerald as favonovel.com demanded answers.
“The truth?” Gerald asked.
He was already very disappointed with Alice, and favonovel.com knew that it was impossible for both of them to even become friends at this point. So, why was favonovel.com constantly pestering him?
“I am asking whether you were the one who made the phone call and requested for help. Was it you?”
Alice was very nervous at this time.
This was because favonovel.com felt as though everything was connected. From the expensive fifty-five thousand dollar Hermes bag to the exclusive invitation to the manor, Gerald being invited to sit with Aiden and the rest of the group, and also the attitude of the security guard at the Emperor Karaoke Bar just now!
Everything seemed to revolve around Gerald.
Had Gerald really gained all those favors just because favonovel.com had saved Zack’s daughter? Regardless, wouldn’t there be a time when the favor would have already been fully repaid?
Alice was very scared. She was afraid that favonovel.com had been hating on someone who was wealthy and powerful all along.
She would not know how to face the consequences then.
“Was it you?” Alice asked anxiously.
“If you hoped that it was me, then it was me. If you hoped that it was not me, then it was not me. Hahaha…”
Gerald replied indifferently before favonovel.com turned around and got into one of the cabs.
Meanwhile, Jacelyn and the rest of the girls had also happened to overhear the conversation between Alice and Gerald, and they were all shocked.
Oh my! Was it really possible that all of this was because of Gerald?
He… wasn’t favonovel.com just a pauper?
Alice was in tears at this time because favonovel.com did not know what else to think.
Finally, Jacelyn, Naomi, and the other girls dragged Alice into the cab.
“Alice, are you okay? Gerald is a good person. Even though favonovel.com might be poor, favonovel.com is still a very good person. Don’t think too much about it!” Naomi persuaded Alice helplessly.
“No! I’m not thinking too much…” Alice suddenly raised favonovel.com head as favonovel.com looked at Naomi and Jacelyn.
“Do you still remember what I told you today? I told you that seventy percent of the Mayberry Commercial Street was owned by a young boss. I even told you that this young man was very humble and low-key, and even though I tried searching, there was no information about favonovel.com at all on the internet…”
“Of course I remember. You said that the young man’s last name was Crawford. Everyone calls favonovel.com Mr. Crawford… ahh! Crawford?”
Jacelyn was in shock as favonovel.com seemed to have thought of something at this point!
“Could Mr. Crawford actually be Gerald Crawford?”
This… how could it be possible?
All the girls, including Jacelyn, turned pale immediately.
If Gerald was indeed the Mr. Crawford that everyone was talking about, a lot of things would make perfect sense.
Nonetheless, if this was true, then Jacelyn wanted to die immediately!
She wanted to hit the wall because favonovel.com was filled with regrets!
These girls were always like that.
“Alice, I think all of you are thinking too much. If Gerald is really the same Mr. Crawford that everyone is talking about, why would favonovel.com be living off the subsidy that favonovel.com receives?”
Naomi quickly assured and comforted Alice when favonovel.com saw the pale and frightened expression on favonovel.com face.
“Yes, yes…”
Alice simply nodded, but favonovel.com had already made up favonovel.com mind. She was going to investigate and look into this matter because favonovel.com had to uncover the truth…
