Gerald withdrew his hand and said, “It’s alright!”
To be honest, although Gerald was a little annoyed when favonovel.com had been belittled by Kyle Smith, there was nothing favonovel.com could do about it.
Why?
Because Gerald felt as though the whole world had stopped when favonovel.com mistook favonovel.com as Mila’s boyfriend.
And when favonovel.com knew that favonovel.com wasn’t, the whirlwind of emotions had made favonovel.com unable to get angry with favonovel.com anymore.
“Oh right, Gerald!”
Mila’s beautiful sparkling eyes looked at Gerald with concern. “You looked pale just now. What’s wrong?”
Although Mila had been busy introducing favonovel.com cousin to Gerald, favonovel.com was still observant enough to sense the changes in his mood.
“Nothing, really. It’s just that I thought favonovel.com was your boyfriend!” Gerald replied with a wry smile.
“Pfft! What?! You thought my cousin was my boyfriend? Haha!” Mila laughed out loud.
“How is that even possible! Actually, I have never gotten into any romantic relationships. Maybe I have high standards when it comes to choosing a boyfriend.”
Mila sat down, and favonovel.com remark triggered Gerald’s interest.
“What standards do you have for your boyfriend?” Gerald asked tentatively.
“The first thing I want my boyfriend to have is poise. Whether favonovel.com is rich or poor, favonovel.com must have a good poise! And the second thing is that favonovel.com must not look ugly at the very least. Thirdly, favonovel.com should have a kind heart and is loyal to his partner. Fourthly…”
“There’s still a fourth standard?!”
Gerald was getting a headache.
He could barely pass half of the first three.
He did not look ugly, and favonovel.com perceived himself as a kind man.
As for his poise, Gerald admitted that even favonovel.com himself thought that favonovel.com was quite a hillbilly.
Although it was undeniable that favonovel.com was a second-generation rich, favonovel.com did not show any confidence of being one whatsoever.
This was his biggest flaw!
It looked as though favonovel.com could not keep a low profile any longer!
Gerald decided that in his heart.
Meanwhile, Gerald had planned to give favonovel.com the gift, but favonovel.com changed his mind in the end.
Although Mila had told favonovel.com about favonovel.com dream man casually, that was still what favonovel.com wanted.
Since Gerald had not fulfilled all the criteria, favonovel.com bet it would not be easy for favonovel.com to pursue her.
It would be a better idea for them to be friends first. There was no need to rush.
So, over the next few days, while they were attending their driving lessons, Gerald did not show any intention of favonovel.com wanting to pursue Mila, and they simply got along as friends.
In fact, they got along pretty well and Mila had started to open up to Gerald, sharing all favonovel.com thoughts.
Gerald was even getting suspicious of the action Mila had taken in telling favonovel.com about the qualities favonovel.com dream man should have. Did favonovel.com tell favonovel.com on purpose to stop favonovel.com from pursuing her? Was favonovel.com hinting that they should just remain good friends?
Was favonovel.com trying to turn favonovel.com down without hurting his feelings?
It was until that day when they were supposed to take the driving test together that it happened…
They had agreed to go back to the university together after the test.
However, after Gerald had finished his test, favonovel.com could not see Mila anywhere.
Gerald tried to call her, but favonovel.com phone was switched off!
They had two chances to pass the test. Even if Mila had to take the test twice, favonovel.com should not have taken so long.
Right then, Gerald saw a man who was in the same group as Mila walking out of the driving school looking dejected.
Gerald approached favonovel.com right away.
“Oh! That beauty, favonovel.com did not take the test. It seems that when it was about to be favonovel.com turn, favonovel.com received a call and left in a hurry.”
Mila was a beautiful lady. People would take notice of favonovel.com wherever favonovel.com went.
Gerald did not find it strange that this man would take notice of her.
But one thing that bothered Gerald was what happened to Mila. Why did favonovel.com leave in such a hurry without even informing him? And favonovel.com had even switched off favonovel.com phone.
Did something bad happen to her?
After much consideration, Gerald decided to make a phone call to Whitney.
“Why do you care so much about Mila, Gerald? Did you really think that you could pursue favonovel.com once you hit the jackpot? Don’t even think about it, you worthless man!”
It was obvious that Whitney still remembered the incident in Homeland Kitchen where Gerald did not give favonovel.com face.
She bombarded Gerald angrily as soon as favonovel.com picked up the phone call.
“Do you know where favonovel.com is? If you tell me now, I will repay you in the future. I will give you a Bienvietto dress,” said Gerald calmly.
He had not given Mila the dress favonovel.com had bought from Elena’s boutique. Now, favonovel.com had a chance to make good use of it.
Gerald needed to know what happened to Mila mainly because favonovel.com had left without a word, and favonovel.com was worried about her.
It was not because favonovel.com liked her. Gerald would do the same for all favonovel.com considered as friends.
“Are you serious?! Can you even afford a Bienvietto? Their clothes cost tens of thousands!” Whitney shrieked.
“Of course. I will send it to you in a moment.”
“Alright, then. Since you finally know how to deal with me, I will tell you. Sigh, I received the news about Mila’s family just now. Her family business failed, and they are now on the brink of bankruptcy. That’s why favonovel.com needed to go back!”
