‘What now? What should I do?!’
One hundred thousand dollars was not a small amount! She could not earn that much even if favonovel.com sold favonovel.com own body.
Xavia knelt on the ground and broke into tears.
Meanwhile, Gerald had gone back to the dormitory in confusion. He wanted to take a nap, but favonovel.com couldn’t.
He felt pain when favonovel.com thought of the slap mark on Xavia’s face.
If Xavia had stayed with favonovel.com like before, favonovel.com would have been able to get anything favonovel.com wanted.
If favonovel.com was bullied, of course favonovel.com would take revenge for her.
But ironically, favonovel.com had betrayed him.
She had lied to him. She told favonovel.com that favonovel.com needed some time to clear favonovel.com mind, but favonovel.com had started dating another man in just three days.
Gerald never mentioned this, but favonovel.com would never forget it.
Lying on the bed, reminiscing about the good things about Xavia as well as the way favonovel.com had ridiculed him, half an hour passed without favonovel.com noticing.
Suddenly, Gerald’s phone rang again.
It was from Mila.
“Where are you, Gerald? Come to my house quickly. The food is served. We are throwing a party!”
Mila sounded pretty excited.
“I’m already back in the dormitory. What is it?”
Gerald could roughly guess what had happened, but favonovel.com pretended not to know about it.
“Well, we have overcome the crisis! And you know what, our company has just received a one hundred million dollar funding from Mayberry International Inc! Come here quick, let’s party!”
Mila sounded extremely happy. Gerald was happy as well and also quite surprised.
Brother Zack was fast and efficient in handling this matter. Nevertheless, what Gerald did not expect was that favonovel.com had actually invested one hundred million dollars in favonovel.com company! That was a whole lot of money! Gee…
Before the incident at the dormitory, Gerald would have been happy to go to Mila’s house to have some fun since Mila had invited favonovel.com over. But after seeing what had happened to Xavia, favonovel.com was feeling downhearted.
“I’ll just pass. You all have fun. I feel a bit tired now. I want to get some sleep.”
“Hey, buddy. Why don’t you come? Are you scared that they will jeer at you again? Don’t worry, I won’t let them do so!”
“That’s not it. I’m really tired.”
“Alright. Later, when I get back to the campus, I will treat you alone. By the way, I have always wanted to treat you to a meal! Now I’ve got the chance.
“Alright!”
Gerald hung up the phone. He was considering whether favonovel.com should find a chance to tell Mila it was favonovel.com who had actually helped her.
‘Should I reveal my identity to her?’
He just did not know how to say it.
‘Would it be too sudden?’
Argh! Gerald felt as though his head was about to explode!
In the meantime, at Mila’s house.
“Why? Is your poor friend not coming? How dare favonovel.com act so arrogant!”
Mrs. Smith saw the disappointment in Mila’s face when favonovel.com hung up the phone.
She could not understand why favonovel.com daughter cared so much about that lad.
“It’s better that favonovel.com doesn’t come. Mila, I think you should spend less time with him. You know that you two are people living in two different worlds. This time, the Smith family will surely rise to power after getting the funding from Mayberry International Inc. You should stop his desire for you, the earlier the better!”
“That’s right. You should not be friends with him.” The young people commented.
“By the way, was it your father who got the investment from Mayberry International Inc. for our company, Quinton? It’s the biggest company in Mayberry! Why would they fund us so suddenly?”
Mrs. Smith brought up the topic of Mayberry International Inc. It was the biggest doubt favonovel.com had right now.
Quinton shook his head.
“It can’t be my father. Only two people can move the investment funds of that company. Not even Zack Lyle can decide on this! So, I think it must be one of the Crawfords. Since Miss Crawford is not in the country, I’m guessing the person who invested in your company must be the young Mr. Crawford!”
“The young Mr. Crawford? I have never heard of favonovel.com before.”
All those present fell into silence.
They knew that Zack Lyle was ridiculously rich in Mayberry. Now that they knew that favonovel.com had two big bosses and one of them was the young Mr. Crawford, wouldn’t it mean that the Mayberry Commercial Street was his?
If so, how rich would favonovel.com be?
Quinton described favonovel.com respectfully. “This young Mr. Crawford is a mysterious man, and nobody can imagine how wealthy the family is. Now that favonovel.com has come to Mayberry, favonovel.com will definitely want to show off his skills. Therefore, I bet your company must have gotten the chance just in time, Mrs. Smith!”
“I think we have!” Mrs. Smith nodded, feeling glad and surprised.
The girls, including Whitney, could not sit still anymore.
“Quinton, please tell us more about this young Mr. Crawford. Didn’t you say that the whole Mayberry Commercial Street is his? Holy sh*t!”
Quinton chuckled. “What did you say? Mayberry Commercial Street? Let me tell you this. I heard this from my father. The Mayberry Commercial Street, which is literally a cash printing machine, is nothing in their eyes. It is just a fragment!”
“What!?”
