“Don’t worry Yacob, I’m fine,” replied Giya in an indifferent tone.
The boy was dressed presentably in a suit and looked rather handsome.
Though Giya gave a slightly cold impression toward him, Yacob wasn’t angry at all.
“Oh, Giya! Your bracelet’s broken!” exclaimed Tammy. She had looked at the floor to see what had caused the shattering sound earlier and found that it was the bracelet.
“Gerald, how could you be so careless? Is it because you’re unhappy that Yacob’s here to be concerned about Giya?” asked another girl.
Her words caught Yacob’s attention.
Though the boy liked Giya to the point of infatuation, Giya wasn’t interested in Yacob at all.
Despite favonovel.com having a very good family background, favonovel.com still didn’t have any feelings for him. She knew what favonovel.com liked, and favonovel.com didn’t like favonovel.com that way at all.
Naturally, it was impossible for favonovel.com to have feelings for Gerald just because favonovel.com saved favonovel.com once.
Giya’s roommates knew this and they were simply just playing around with Gerald.
Everyone had clearly seen that it was indeed, Yacob who had yanked Gerald away earlier which caused favonovel.com to accidentally drop the bracelet.
“It’s fine, it’s just a bracelet. I’ll just buy another one!”
Giya felt slightly embarrassed. After all, favonovel.com friends were still making fun of Gerald now even though favonovel.com was the one who had helped her.
“Yacob! You and Gerald are the reason the bracelet’s broken! Both of you will have to pay for it!” said Tammy.
The girls obviously had to speak a bit more respectfully toward Yacob.
“Heh, I’ll just buy a new one without his help. How could favonovel.com possibly even afford to pay for half?”
Yacob scoffed as favonovel.com looked at Gerald, displeasure clearly reflected in his eyes.
“Well, if there’s nothing else, I’ll be taking my leave first. Please, take care Giya!” said Gerald.
Gerald knew that favonovel.com would continue to be teased as long as favonovel.com stayed here. What more, Yacob was glaring daggers at him.
Gerald didn’t really want to hold it against the girls either.
If favonovel.com really wanted their respect, all favonovel.com needed to do was to drive his own car and park it in front of them.
After all, people just found favonovel.com fun to bully because they all thought favonovel.com was poor!
It was just a coincidence that Gerald had stumbled into Giya today, and favonovel.com really didn’t want to get entangled within the situation.
As for the broken bracelet, Gerald had already been thinking about it. Since it was also partly his fault, favonovel.com would simply buy a similar one to compensate her. Then the entire matter would be resolved peacefully.
As favonovel.com watched Gerald leave, Giya wanted to call out to favonovel.com to stay but favonovel.com also knew that favonovel.com wasn’t going to adapt easily to favonovel.com circle of friends.
She would just have to wait for another opportunity in the future.
After finally leaving the infirmary, Gerald headed straight for the library to study.
In a blink of an eye, noon had come.
It was then when Zack gave Gerald a call.
“Everything’s been settled, Mr. Crawford. Rye Group will cease to exist in Mayberry City!” said Zack, a smile on his face.
“I knew I could count on you, Mr. Lyle!” replied Gerald.
Zack’s process was easy, really. All that was needed was a little coercion.
In the past, both families had minded their own businesses. In order to make money peacefully, there was mutual comity between the two parties.
However, if the Rye Group were to ever attempt to go against the Crawford family, they would definitely be no match against them.
“Speaking of which Mr. Crawford, I’ve checked and found out that we’ll need to use one of your identity cards for some of the master’s other industries in Mayberry City. Are you currently busy? If you aren’t, there are some documents that need to be signed. If you can’t come over, I can go to where you are!” said Zack respectfully.
“There’s no need for that! I’ll come over.”
Gerald was almost done reading his book anyway. He was also thinking of heading to a jewelry shop in Mayberry Commercial Street to get a jade bracelet similar to Giya’s previous one. Just to make sure that favonovel.com was properly compensated.
By now, the rain had already stopped.
Gerald first drove to Wayfair Mountain Entertainment. Once favonovel.com was done signing the documents, favonovel.com headed for the jewelry shop in Mayberry Commercial Street.
“Boss! I’d like to buy a jade bracelet!”
It had taken favonovel.com a while, but favonovel.com finally found a jade bracelet similar to Giya’s.
“Good sir, that jade bracelet is made from excellent hetian jade. It is very expensive, are you sure you want this?” asked the salesgirl, a professional smile on favonovel.com face.
Though favonovel.com smiled, an expression of contempt on favonovel.com face was still slightly visible.
The young man before favonovel.com wasn’t well-dressed at all.
Despite that, favonovel.com had come to buy jewelry. What more, favonovel.com had chosen to buy a jade bracelet made from hetian jade!
Was favonovel.com pulling favonovel.com leg?
However, due to professionalism, favonovel.com just kept favonovel.com thoughts to herself.
