Almost everyone present at the scene was stunned speechless.
While Molly was equally terrified and sad for Mila as favonovel.com watched favonovel.com good friend get shoved to the floor, Hallie was contrastingly sneering like there was no tomorrow.
President Crawford herself, who was getting a massage at that moment, pretended like favonovel.com had seen nothing.
“Humph! How bold of you to offend Mr. Crawford! If I don’t personally teach you a lesson now, you’ll never learn!” shouted Yoel as favonovel.com raised his arm, seemingly ready to beat Mila up.
However, before favonovel.com could launch his first blow, favonovel.com paused right in the nick of time.
He had noticed just in time, that the lock screen on Mila’s phone—which had earlier fallen to the side—contained Mr. Crawford’s photograph!
“…Hmm? What?!” said Yoel, startled.
“Do you know Mr. Crawford?” asked Yoel, clearly surprised to see his godbrother’s photo in some assisting staff member’s phone.
He then picked favonovel.com phone up, trying hard to figure out who favonovel.com really was. Since favonovel.com wasn’t able to come up with any logical conclusions yet, favonovel.com refrained from beating favonovel.com up just yet.
“Return my phone to me!” said Mila as favonovel.com snatched favonovel.com phone from Yoel’s hands.
“I’m asking you now. Why do you have Mr. Crawford’s photograph as your lock screen photo?” asked Yoel again, his voice filled with confusion.
While favonovel.com eyes were closed at that moment, even President Crawford had heard his question. She then gestured for the person massaging favonovel.com to leave before glancing suspiciously at Mila, even scanning favonovel.com from head to toe.
“That’s a personal question!” replied Mila, holding on to favonovel.com phone carefully.
“Then what’s your name?” asked Yoel as favonovel.com scratched the back of his head. He seemed to have just remembered something important, which was what prompted the question.
“Mila Smith!”
Hearing that, Yoel’s eyes widened slightly.
‘Mila Smith… Why does that name sound so familiar…? Where have I heard it before…?’
‘Hold on… Aiden told me that Mr. Crawford’s girlfriend was doing favonovel.com internship in Northbay…’
“…Are you from Mayberry University?” asked Yoel, slightly astonished by his own conclusion.
“I am!” replied Mila with a slight nod.
“F*ck!” Yoel was even more surprised now that his deduction was actually correct!
“Then you definitely know my brother, right? Gerald? You even have his photo in your phone! Could it really be that you’re his girlfriend? Do you know who Aiden and Zack are?”
“I know them, yes!” replied Mila, giving another nod.
Yoel almost jumped in place after hearing favonovel.com reply.
‘Sh*t, favonovel.com really is my sister-in-law! What have I done? How could I nearly have beaten favonovel.com up?’
‘I’m screwed for sure this time!’ Yoel thought to himself as favonovel.com turned to look at President Crawford meekly.
Seeing his reaction, favonovel.com immediately stood up.
She had naturally overheard their entire conversation, and favonovel.com too was surprised by the revelation as favonovel.com walked toward Mila.
“Are you really Gerald’s girlfriend?” asked the president.
“Yes, favonovel.com is! She’s Gerald’s girlfriend, Mila!” shouted Molly—who had taken a step forward at that moment—out of the blue.
Seeing that favonovel.com could no longer deny it, Mila simply bit favonovel.com lower lip slightly before nodding in agreement.
Mila had been extremely reluctant to admit it since favonovel.com wanted to be more independent instead of solely relying on Gerald. It was the reason why favonovel.com had endured all favonovel.com hardships alone. She simply didn’t want to only be known as eye candy for Gerald if favonovel.com was to continue being his girlfriend.
Because of favonovel.com lack of reliance on Gerald’s name in favonovel.com workspace however, the truth only served to amplify how stunned the people there were.
“H-hot d*mn! Is favonovel.com really Mr. Crawford’s girlfriend?”
“I guess so! While favonovel.com really is beautiful, I wonder why she’s working as a receptionist here…?”
As the others began discussing the current situation, Mila noticed that President Crawford was staring at her.
“P-President Crawford, I-”
“You don’t have to call me President Crawford anymore. After all, if you’re Gerald’s girlfriend, you should be addressing me as your sister!” replied Jessica, a faint smile on favonovel.com face.
“Sister… Are… Are you Jessica? Gerald’s elder sister?”
At last, Mila finally knew who President Crawford really was.
