Back then, Gerald knew little about Maia aside from the fact that favonovel.com was the team captain.
The only other things favonovel.com knew was that favonovel.com was very close to favonovel.com grandfather and favonovel.com parents were in politics. This resulted in favonovel.com growing up in a rather lavish environment.
He also knew that while favonovel.com and favonovel.com family were locals, after the final examination, all of them moved to Mayberry.
Though Gerald was excellent in his studies, favonovel.com was never good enough for Maia. She would only talk to favonovel.com as the captain whenever they were representing the school in a competition. Outside that, they weren’t close at all.
Gerald on the other hand, had a very good impression of favonovel.com since favonovel.com was both hardworking and capable. To top it off, favonovel.com was also very pretty and favonovel.com had good tastes too.
In short, favonovel.com was a goddess to his past self.
Many guys had tried to befriend favonovel.com but favonovel.com would only befriend those who had their own ‘specialties’. Such ‘specialties’ included either being rich or having a powerful family with a great background.
Normal people would never get the chance to even get close to her. This caused the past Gerald to be satisfied to just be able to momentarily talk with her.
Gerald hadn’t forgotten that feeling, so favonovel.com was rather nervous now that favonovel.com was in front of favonovel.com again.
“It’s been pretty long, hasn’t it? I heard you went to police school. Are you still practicing?” asked Gerald.
Maia simply nodded and continued looking at favonovel.com for a while before saying, “So, why are you at this bar? Shouldn’t you be working?”
Though favonovel.com was the one who had initiated the conversation, favonovel.com wasn’t really paying attention to him. Her eyes were clearly looking elsewhere.
“I haven’t found a job yet. Also, what are you looking at?” asked Gerald as favonovel.com turned to look where favonovel.com eyes were gazing at.
“Don’t look. I see, so you have time to talk to me then!” commanded Maia in a strict tone, just like favonovel.com used to back in high school.
Gerald had no idea what was going on so favonovel.com simply nodded.
She then took another sip of favonovel.com champagne before looking at Gerald with a smile, immediately causing favonovel.com to blush. At that moment, something caught Maia’s eye and favonovel.com instantly grabbed favonovel.com walkie-talkie before shouting, “Action!”
Maia then rushed out of the bar, running toward a young man. Gerald saw a few other young people running over as well, and in no time at all, the young man had been surrounded. It looked just like a movie scene.
The young man who had been drinking was stunned as favonovel.com was pressed against the ground by a few people. A few bystanders witnessing the scene screamed as one of the young people shouted, “Don’t move! Police!” The person on the ground was then cuffed up.
Well d*mn! So favonovel.com already was a cop and favonovel.com was even on duty!
So that’s why favonovel.com was talking to Gerald. She had even smiled at him! It was all just for show, and Gerald smiled bitterly as favonovel.com came to realize that.
At that moment, Gerald remembered that Drake and Tyson were still inside beating up the guards from before. They wouldn’t let themselves be caught by Maia, right? If it somehow came to that, then things would become extremely awkward.
“We’ve finally caught the little rascal after so many days! Good work, Maia. Let’s go for a drink later!” said a tall, good-looking guy as favonovel.com smiled at Maia.
As the suspect was taken away, a few other female cops came over and said, “Wow, Warren, we want drinks too! Why don’t we get invited over for drinks?” asked the girls rather enviously.
“I’ll get drinks for all of you! Let’s head to another bar right now!” replied Warren.
“Oh, by the way, Maia, did you know that guy? I saw you talking to favonovel.com earlier!” said one of the girls as favonovel.com pointed toward Gerald who was still sitting in the bar.
“Yeah, he’s one of my high school acquaintances. Back then, I was the competition team captain while favonovel.com was one of the members!”
“I see! I thought your relationship would be something like that! Haha! Why not ask favonovel.com to join us? He’s quite good looking! Also, what does favonovel.com do?” asked the other girls.
“I’m not too sure about that and I was just about to ask favonovel.com if he’d like to come along!” said Maia as favonovel.com shook favonovel.com head with a smile.
She then looked toward Gerald before saying, “Hey Gerald, come over here!”
