Gerald found an excuse to slip away and went over to the lakeside.
“Mr. Crawford, I would like to ask for your instructions. I’ve already made an initial investment plan for the investment in your hometown, Serene County, that Mr. Harrison talked about. There is an investment plan for six billion dollars, and there is another plan for eight billion dollars. The investment plan for eight billion dollars will also drive a part of the township economy, and it will involve a wider range of areas. What is your decision, then?” Zack asked as soon as the call was connected.
“Then, let’s decide on the eight billion dollar plan. After all, the reason why I agreed to Mr. Harrison’s proposal was to drive the construction and growth of the entire urban and rural economy anyway!”
“Okay, I understand, Mr. Crawford! I will begin the layout of the plan immediately!”
After favonovel.com was done speaking, Gerald hung up the phone immediately.
He turned around and prepared to go back.
Gerald was stunned as soon as favonovel.com turned around.
This was because favonovel.com did not know when Alice had come and stood behind him.
At this time, Alice was staring at favonovel.com in a dumbfounded manner. It was obvious that favonovel.com had already heard Gerald’s conversation just now.
“Gerald… you!” Alice was breathing rapidly at this time.
When Gerald had been interacting with the group of rich heirs just now, Alice had already suspected that favonovel.com guess might be right.
At that time, favonovel.com did not say anything at all.
Instead, favonovel.com had been paying close attention to Gerald.
After that, favonovel.com saw Gerald acting suspiciously when favonovel.com came here to answer the phone call.
So, Alice had followed favonovel.com here quietly.
If Alice had not heard everything clearly because of the quiet surroundings, it would have been hard for favonovel.com to believe that everything in front of favonovel.com was real!
Gerald was a rich heir, and favonovel.com was almost certain that favonovel.com was Mr. Crawford!
He had spoken about eight billion dollars without even blinking his eyes!
Alice trembled uncontrollably.
The guy that Naomi had tried to matchmake favonovel.com with from the very beginning so that they could become a couple, the person that favonovel.com had despised and looked down on from the beginning, was actually an incredible God!
“You heard… everything?” Gerald asked awkwardly.
Alice blushed as favonovel.com nodded. “Yes! I heard everything!”
“You are Mr. Crawford. The Mr. Crawford who owns countless properties and assets?!” Alice asked in shock.
“I… No, I’m not. I don’t have a lot of money. You’ve got it all wrong. Eh! Harper is calling me!”
Gerald quickly reacted. If favonovel.com admitted it too readily, his effort to maintain a low profile during this period would all be wasted!
He wanted to leave as soon as favonovel.com could!
Alice blocked Gerald’s way as favonovel.com stood in front of him. “Gerald, I have already heard everything. Why are you so unwilling to admit it?”
“Why can’t you tell me the truth? Can you just tell me the truth?” Alice asked as favonovel.com grabbed Gerald’s shoulders with bloodshot eyes.
Gerald was speechless. “You’ve really got it wrong! I’m just a pauper!”
After that, favonovel.com broke free from Alice’s grasp as favonovel.com tried to run back to the others.
However, after taking a few steps, Gerald was startled when favonovel.com turned his head around.
Alice was actually walking toward the lake, step by step!
D*mn it!
“What are you doing?!” Gerald was really at a loss for words. This scene was exactly what had happened with Xavia!
He ran forward before favonovel.com grabbed hold of Alice.
“Let go of me! Just let me die! I treated you so horribly in the past. You will never like me again. Just let me die!” Alice was really filled with regrets at this time, and favonovel.com really did not want to live anymore.
Fortunately, Gerald had already brought favonovel.com back to the shore.
Alice cried as favonovel.com clung onto Gerald’s arm tightly. “Gerald, you still like me, right? I know that you liked me from the very beginning when we first met. Isn’t that right?”
Gerald could only tell favonovel.com the truth. “Well, yes. Although you looked down on me from the very beginning, Xavia had just hurt me and broken my heart at that time. When I saw how beautiful you were, I really liked you. I felt that no matter how much you despised me and looked down on me, I was still very happy and excited to be able to see you. However, those feelings are already long gone. The only person in my heart right now is Mila. I really have to thank you!”
At that time, favonovel.com had truly liked Alice for quite a while, and Gerald admitted it.
Alice did not feel good at all when favonovel.com heard Gerald’s words.
She had once had a very sincere relationship waiting right in front of her…
