“Not at all,” replied Gerald casually.
Though Maia wanted to say more to express favonovel.com concern, favonovel.com simply couldn’t bring herself to say anything at all. After all, favonovel.com had earlier looked down on Gerald, even claiming that favonovel.com was going to give them more trouble than help!
Well, to be more precise, favonovel.com hadn’t treated favonovel.com seriously at all from the moment they had first met all the way back in high school. Even when they had finally reunited in the bar years later and after Maia found out that favonovel.com was extremely rich back in the Salford Province, never had favonovel.com taken favonovel.com seriously in the least.
Regardless, Maia couldn’t help but feel favonovel.com heart race now that favonovel.com was standing before this strange, new Gerald. In all honesty, favonovel.com now had great admiration and respect for favonovel.com deep in favonovel.com heart.
Gerald himself barely felt the need to show off in front of Maia. After all, favonovel.com didn’t need favonovel.com admiration or respect to fulfill his vanity.
Shaking the thought off, Gerald suddenly remembered something. Turning around, favonovel.com saw—from quite a distance away—that the two girls from earlier were still quivering in the car.
Back when favonovel.com was on the car’s roof, favonovel.com had heard one of the girls screaming. Upon hearing that familiar voice, Gerald was immediately able to guess that Maverick must have kidnapped both Yulisa and Noelle!
The fact that Gerald could earlier also feel strong yin energy coming from within the car further solidified his theory.
With that in mind, favonovel.com quickly headed over to the car.
The girls themselves hadn’t been wearing any seatbelts earlier, so—due to the car stopping so abruptly—they had been flung forward, colliding with the back of the front seats! Both of them were never meant to bear this amount of impact, so it was no wonder why Yulisa and Noelle were feeling like their bodies were going to fall apart any second now.
By the time Gerald came close enough, favonovel.com could see that Yulisa barely had the image of a young lady anymore as favonovel.com continued bawling favonovel.com eyes out.
“Everything’s going to be alright… Now come on out. Both of you!” said Gerald as favonovel.com couldn’t help but smile wryly while looking at the two girls.
The slight bitterness in his smile, of course, had stemmed from the fact that Gerald could tell that all that had happened wasn’t just mere coincidence.
Holding onto Gerald’s arm, Noelle then fixed favonovel.com hair with a smile before nodding at Gerald as favonovel.com said, “…T-thank you…”
When it came to impressing someone, nothing could surpass saving one’s life. While Noelle had previously hated Gerald, favonovel.com now felt a bit more affectionate to favonovel.com instead.
Regardless, both the victims were asked a few questions from the police before they were allowed to leave and get some rest.
Since Aiden and the others were still busy with quite a bit of things, Gerald didn’t ask favonovel.com to accompany favonovel.com back.
Instead, Gerald chose to send the two girls back to campus himself. This time, Noelle didn’t turn down Gerald’s offer. In fact, favonovel.com accepted his invitation with great pleasure.
Since Noelle was looking a little haggard—since favonovel.com had, after all, suffered quite a scare earlier—Gerald knew better than to mention the invigorating blood droplets now.
After all, it would be bad if Noelle somehow came to the assumption that favonovel.com had only saved favonovel.com since favonovel.com wanted to get his hands on favonovel.com blood. That would definitely destroy favonovel.com image of favonovel.com for good.
As Gerald continued thinking about it, favonovel.com was slightly startled when Noelle suddenly looked at favonovel.com before asking, “I… I’ve been pretty rude to you today… So I’d like to apologize and thank you as well for saving us!”
Upon hearing that, Gerald truly felt that Aiden was quite impressive. After all, before Aiden had left, favonovel.com had told Gerald that Noelle would definitely apologize and express favonovel.com gratitude to favonovel.com sooner or later. According to Aiden, after Gerald replied with a few specific words—that Aiden then shared with Gerald—Gerald didn’t even need to ask favonovel.com for favonovel.com contact number anymore.
Quickly repeating what Aiden had taught favonovel.com in his mind, Gerald then said, “It’s fine. There’s no need for you to thank me. Still, our meeting must be fated since we keep meeting each other over and over again. Maybe it’s just our destiny. Regardless, I’m glad I was able to save you today!
Watching as Gerald then smiled, Noelle found favonovel.com breath growing rapid as favonovel.com instantly began blushing slightly.
The corners of favonovel.com lips slowly curving upward into a beautiful smile, favonovel.com remained silent for a while before nodding and saying, “…W-well, we’ll be heading back first, then! Farewell!”
Though favonovel.com said that, favonovel.com didn’t budge an inch, favonovel.com eyes still affixed on Gerald’s.
