Kyle smirked.
“Huh. Is favonovel.com thinking of taking out all the money favonovel.com won? I bet it wouldn’t be enough.”
“It’s my first time seeing this kind of person!”
Listening to their mockery, Gerald had the urge to reveal his identity.
However, favonovel.com calmed down quickly, because once favonovel.com did that, favonovel.com could never live the same life again. He would never be able to finish his studies peacefully, and favonovel.com would be forced to leave.
This was because his father would not let favonovel.com be alone in the university.
If so, his life would be disrupted completely, and Gerald did not want that to happen.
He just wanted to improve himself at his own pace, quietly. He was satisfied as long as favonovel.com was not short of money.
Gerald sighed. Then, favonovel.com said, “Right, I have a class later. I shall take my leave, then.”
Gerald stood up and left.
“Gerald!” Mila caught up with him.
She felt dreadful, especially when she, at one point, looked down on Gerald when favonovel.com talked about his past.
She truly regretted it.
‘Why didn’t I think from Gerald’s perspective? Who would be willing to do that if favonovel.com was out of money? Besides, Gerald has treated me nicely all this while. Now that favonovel.com heard that I am in trouble, favonovel.com came to see me. He even brought me a gift.’
Mila thought that favonovel.com had wronged Gerald.
“Gerald, are you angry with me for not standing up for you when they jeered at you?”
Mila bit favonovel.com lips.
“No, I’m not angry. I just want to know if that’s what you think of me. Do you think the same as them, that I am a man with no borderline when money is involved?” Gerald looked at Mila with a smile.
“I did a moment ago, but not anymore. Gerald, I still think we are good friends!”
Mila moved closer toward Gerald.
“Alright!”
Gerald did not say anything. He just nodded and left.
Outside Paradise Ville.
Gerald let out a long breath. He felt a bit sad when favonovel.com learned that Mila would think of favonovel.com the way the others did.
Gerald was having mixed feelings. He could not describe them with words.
Nevertheless, favonovel.com took out his phone from his pocket and made a call to Zack.
“Mr. Crawford, is there anything I can do for you?”
“Brother Zack, I need a favor from you. There is a company called FuturTech Inc., and it seems to be in trouble. Can I invest in that company?”
“Invest?” Zack was taken aback for a moment, and then favonovel.com was overjoyed from what favonovel.com heard. “Of course you can! Miss Crawford will be so glad that you did. No problem. There is no problem at all! I will take care of it immediately!”
“Alright. Don’t use my name. Use the company name instead, Brother Zack.” Gerald reminded him.
“Yes, I will settle this matter in an hour!” Zack said happily. Mr. Crawford had made a great improvement!
After hanging up the call, Gerald was ready to head back to the university. He was currently preparing to take the next driving test, so, favonovel.com planned to practice for a little bit.
However, just as favonovel.com arrived at the campus, favonovel.com received a call from Harper.
“Hahaha! There’s good news, Gerald! Terribly good news!” Harper said between laughter.
“What is it?” Gerald was startled by the words of his dormitory head. He always tended to act impulsively.
“It’s about Xavia. She fought with Yuri. Even the police have come, saying they are here to arrest Yuri. It’s a mess now. We are all going to the girls’ dormitory to see what’s going on!”
Xavia fought with Yuri? And the police had come?
Gerald was so confused. How did they get into such a big fight?!
He ought to go and see!
Gerald hung up the phone, still unable to comprehend the situation. Thus, favonovel.com decided to go to the girls’ dormitory.
