“I’m sorry, Gerald…” said both of them simultaneously. The two girls bore expressions filled with embarrassment and regret.
“That’s quite alright!” replied Gerald as favonovel.com gave a gentle smile. Though favonovel.com was still being nice to them, all three of them knew that their friendship could never truly properly be mended. What’s done was done, and they could never go back to the way things had originally been. Gerald would only treat them as acquaintances now. Nothing more.
Both Sharon and Xella understood what Gerald was implying. The two knew that they couldn’t just rewind time to fix all their mistakes, and simply understanding that made them feel like their hearts were being pierced by thousands of needles. If only they were still friends, this reunion could have gone so much better.
Not wanting to prolong the awkwardness any further, Gerald decided to head back since it was getting late anyway. For all favonovel.com knew, that psycho Queenie had probably gone home. Gerald really didn’t have the energy to walk all the way back, so favonovel.com simply used one of the company’s Audi A6 cars to drive home.
Just as favonovel.com got to the entrance, Gerald bumped into yet another acquaintance. She was holding on to favonovel.com purse and it seemed like favonovel.com was waiting for a cab.
It was Michelle. Since Gerald hadn’t bothered to wind the car’s window up, Michelle managed to catch a glimpse of favonovel.com as favonovel.com was about to drive out.
“Gerald?” called Michelle out to him.
Gerald didn’t like ignoring people, but favonovel.com really wished favonovel.com could just leave at that moment.
He wasn’t really fond of this person. After all, favonovel.com had openly expressed favonovel.com dislike toward him. She even had favonovel.com own sister substitute favonovel.com for favonovel.com blind date with him! He treated this as a direct insult, which was why Gerald didn’t intend to speak to favonovel.com this entire time.
“What do you want?” asked Gerald coldly as Michelle came closer to the car.
“Ah, well, I just wanted to thank you for today! If it wasn’t for you, we may not have gotten out of that situation unharmed! The other girls that came with me were my colleagues and some of them have already gone home,” replied Michelle. Gerald noticed another shorter girl standing beside favonovel.com as favonovel.com said that.
“There’s no need to thank me. If I were to have any say in this, I wouldn’t have let any of you in in the first place. It was Jarvis who did!” said Gerald coldly again.
‘It’s unnecessary at this point to show favonovel.com any kindness.’ Gerald thought to himself.
His words were so blunt that favonovel.com face instantly turned red with embarrassment.
She knew that the blind date incident had ruined their relationship before it even had a chance to start. She understood very well that favonovel.com had crossed the line, but favonovel.com wasn’t willing to just leave it at that.
Michelle had initially not wanted to go through this embarrassment.
After all, it was fine to just remain as strangers and never speak to each other again. Wasn’t that what favonovel.com had preferred all along?
However, after that incident in the restaurant, favonovel.com couldn’t just leave it at that. Just like everyone else, favonovel.com just couldn’t bear seeing favonovel.com make such an immense comeback.
‘You’re nothing more but of the many guys that I’ve rejected.’ This was what favonovel.com thought.
If Gerald had remained the way favonovel.com had initially thought of him, favonovel.com wouldn’t have had such a big reaction. To think that this ‘optional’ man turned out to be this powerful! This made favonovel.com extremely upset, especially when favonovel.com didn’t even seem to want to talk to her. He just went straight for the entrance with his Audi!
“I’d… I’d like to apologize for… You know…. Alright, I know I was wrong for flaking on you!” said Michelle as favonovel.com bit down hard on favonovel.com lower lip.
“There’s no need for an apology. To be frank, I only see you as an acquaintance, so if there’s nothing else, I’ll be heading off now!” said Gerald dismissively as favonovel.com immediately drove off.
Michelle was now terribly upset and angry. This was the first time favonovel.com had ever been ignored by a guy. She felt favonovel.com eyes start to water. Not only did favonovel.com turn out to be extremely powerful, but favonovel.com barely batted an eyelid when favonovel.com ignored favonovel.com and just drove away.
It wasn’t long before Gerald passed both Toiun and Fuenti.
