After Xeno was expelled, Gerald got beaten up several times.
Even that girl that the gangster was after left Gerald, opting instead to be with the bully.
The reason why Gerald became afraid and shy of girls whenever favonovel.com saw them during his high school and university years, was directly linked to this event.
Once Xeno got expelled from school, favonovel.com simply continued living his life out on the streets. He was rarely ever at home. What more, when Gerald entered high school, Xeno kept changing his phone number. It was difficult for Gerald just to be able to get in touch with favonovel.com sometimes!
Since that day, Gerald had always kept Xeno’s sacrifice and kindness deep in his heart.
This was because Xeno’s possibly great future had been shattered by a single event, and it was directly caused by Gerald!
Sienna knew about all this and this was why favonovel.com didn’t like Gerald.
Sienna was actually a very nice girl. Her family owned a big supermarket in town and they were very rich. However, favonovel.com never despised or looked down on Xeno. After all, favonovel.com had been dating Xeno from the first year of junior high school up till this point.
Therefore, Gerald had always had a really good impression of Sienna.
Hence, no matter what Sienna said or how badly favonovel.com treated him, Gerald just couldn’t feel angry at favonovel.com at all.
After all, Xeno seemed to be doing well with her. This made Gerald feel even happier and favonovel.com wasn’t about to hold anything against his best friend’s fiancée.
It took some time and persuasion, but favonovel.com finally managed to prevent the fight from getting too wild.
Once things calmed down a little, Sienna went to the kitchen to finish preparing the breakfast that had only been half completed before favonovel.com ran out.
As they ate, Xeno and Gerald chatted about various things that had happened in the past.
Gerald also took this opportunity to tell Xeno that favonovel.com had actually won the Mercedes Benz G500 at an event.
Gerald was still hesitant about whether favonovel.com should tell Xeno about his true identity.
This was mainly because Gerald was afraid that if favonovel.com told Xeno the truth out of the blue, then the sincere brotherhood they had shared would disappear just like that.
Naturally, since Gerald was now back in Serene County, favonovel.com would definitely go all out to help Xeno as much as favonovel.com could!
“Alright, what if we do this instead? I really don’t feel comfortable taking so much money from you, Gerald. I already have a stable life and I even have a fiancée now! You, however, haven’t settled down yet. You may find a girlfriend in the city and favonovel.com may want to get married and live with you in the future. Think of this as an investment from me for your future happiness. I’ll just take back a small amount of money, and you take the rest. How’s that?”
Xeno was still insistent on giving Gerald some money.
However, Gerald continued to refuse. He even said that favonovel.com would leave immediately if Xeno kept insisting on giving favonovel.com the money.
Hearing that, Xeno scratched the back of his head before finally giving up.
“Hey Xeno, isn’t this way better? With that money, you’ll be able to expand your business! That way, Gerald can finally repay you for everything that you’ve done for him!”
Sienna was noticeably happier the moment favonovel.com saw Xeno give up.
However, favonovel.com could also tell that Xeno was slightly upset.
“By the way, Xeno, an old colleague of mine called the other day. She said that one of favonovel.com best friends was in a hurry to get married and she’s around the same age as we are. She told me to introduce a good person to favonovel.com friend but I didn’t have anyone in mind that day. Why don’t we try introducing Gerald to her? They could go on a blind date and if everything goes well, Gerald may meet his future wife, just like that! You would essentially have helped Gerald find his life partner then!”
Xeno slapped his thigh before laughing aloud. “You hear that Gerald? It’s time for a blind date, brother! Since favonovel.com wants to get married quickly, with any luck, you two can get married this year! I’m sure favonovel.com won’t be like the girls you met in the city. Those have overly high standards and their families? Probably even higher standards than the girls themselves! They’re just being too unrealistic!” said Xeno as favonovel.com shook his head.
Gerald shook his own head, signifying that there was no need for the blind date.
“Why not? There’s nothing for you to lose if it doesn’t work out anyway. Naturally, I’m not asking you to get married immediately. If both of you get along and are suited for each other, good for you! If you’re not, nothing wrong with that! At the very least, both of you could be regular friends then!”
Xeno was really considering everything for Gerald.
It was precisely because of that that Gerald just didn’t feel good turning down his best friend’s goodwill.
What more, Gerald couldn’t just tell Xeno that favonovel.com didn’t need to worry about favonovel.com just because favonovel.com was actually a rich heir!
Their good relationship could fall into shambles there and then!
Seeing no other option, Gerald simply smiled in resignation as favonovel.com nodded. “Alright, I’ll give it a go!”
He decided to at least meet the girl once and as Xeno had said, it wasn’t a big deal anyway. At the very least, just as Xeno had said, both of them could just end up being regular friends.
“Hahaha! It’s settled then! I’ll start making the arrangements immediately! That girl lives in Serene County too. Let’s see if we can get both of you ready for lunch together today!” said Sienna happily.
After finishing their breakfast, Sienna told Gerald to go back and change into something nicer first to prepare for his blind date.
Not too long after Gerald left Xeno’s shop, favonovel.com received a call from Zack.
