Chapter 381
“Sir Herring Jenkins is the head of the county. Who on earth could make him wait at the bus station?”Montana could not mask her surprise.Was it that rich dude from the city?No way. Why would someone as rich as him come here by bus?“Wait here; I’ll go say hi!” Montana’s boyfriend straightened his suit and tidied up his hair.He was ready to go over.“But Jonathan, will this work? Will Mr. Jenkins pay any attention to you?” Montana couldn’t help but worry.“I guess so. After all, he knows my dad too, and I’ve had dinner with him twice.”Jonathan reassured Montana and headed over to the other side.Montana, however, didn’t dare go with him. The other side was filled with big shots, and several heads of the Ministry of Education were also present.As a fellow staff member, of course, Montana didn’t possess the courage to approach them.As for Jonathan, he went and came back quickly.While there, he looked very proud, thinking that he had a chance to stand out among the

“Ahem, Mr. Winters was hospitalized this afternoon. I’d just come back to pack some clothes when I heard the phone ringing.”“What? Hospitalized? Which hospital?”Hearing Mrs. Winters’s gloomy tone, Gerald’s heart thumped in his chest. He hastily asked for the hospital’s location.Mrs. Winters told him the address.It happened to be at a hospital in the same county.Mrs. Winters also happened to arrive at the same time after hitching a ride on one of the county’s bread trucks.Gerald assisted her down from the truck before rushing to the emergency room in one of the hospital’s buildings.Mr. Winters had apparently suffered from cardiovascular problems and passed out while having his lunch.The incident gave her a big scare, and she immediately called for an ambulance. Now, the doctors were still doing all they could to save his life.“Why are we the only ones paying for his hospital bills? Big brother, he’s our dad... your dad, so you’ll have to chip in too.”In the emergency

The nurse led Gerald downstairs to pay at the counter, though she felt somewhat skeptical about him.What then could be the reason for her doubts?It was all because of the way Gerald dressed. He didn’t look like one that would have much money on him.The medical bill came up to 20,000 dollars, almost impossible for the average family to fork out, let alone someone like him.Gerald proved her wrong, though. He paid the 20,000 dollars for the surgical fee and even settled the accommodation as well.It was a whopping 30,000 dollars in total!He paid for everything without even batting an eyelid.The nurse was stunned, unable to move.Gerald paid no attention to her and walked back to the hallway.They were still fighting.“Everyone, stop fighting, I’ve settled the bills,” said Gerald.“Huh???”Only then did the fight die down.The siblings were stupefied when they heard that.“You paid for everything? Gerald, it was 20,000 dollars! Where did you get the money from?” asked t

“You’re Morgana Lopez?”Gerald was a little surprised.Of course, he knew her. She was from the same class in high school and even representative of the English class. Her name was Morgana Lopez.During their high school years, she was pretty yet looked normal at the same time.But he hadn’t seen her for three to four years, and all dolled up, she looked really hot and beautiful.The metamorphosis was pretty evident.In fact, he was mentally prepared to bump into high school classmates long before he returned to his hometown.After all, the ones that should be working had already gone to work.“I saw your picture taken by Montana Lewis in our English class representatives’ group today. You were carrying a duffel bag, so I knew you were back. I didn’t expect to meet you here… what a coincidence!”Morgana straightened her hair.Even after graduation, it was common for some teachers to leave behind their contacts to stay in touch with class representatives.F*ck! Gerald was stu

“Hmph! Why did he make the other intern a permanent doctor and not me? It’s just as I’ve said before. He isn’t giving face to your father at all! Doesn’t he know we are both seeing each other? He made the other intern a full-time doctor and ignored me instead!”Morgana was so enraged that her fork almost slammed into the table again.Gabriel tried to console her.Gerald listened as he ate, and he could almost understand what happened.The gist of it was that Morgana Lopez’s entry into the hospital as an intern clinician had been arranged by Gabriel’s father, the hospital’s vice president.Of course, Morgana was really good at her job, where she was very professional and was very proficient with her skills. Many hospital staff and patients had unanimously commended her.Gabriel’s father, however, seemed to be at odds with the director.In the end, Morgana became the victim of the conflict between the two.She suspected it would be a little more than challenging to become a perma

So, he agreed to go.In the afternoon, once Mr. Winters finally slept off, Gerald left for the party.It would be held in Cape Grace Hotel, somewhere around Serene Town county.Attracting investors had always been a top priority for the region, and this time, much thought had been put in to make it as grand as they could.Even many business owners of Serene Town County would be attending.Zack and Micheal arrived first since Gerald had to look after Mr. Winters.Gerald stood at the entrance, ready to enter the hotel.Beside him, a car pulled up at the parking space. A couple came out of the car, arm in arm.The woman was dressed elegantly and formally, and the man had a suit on him.“Oh my, we should’ve left earlier. Look at the time now!” complained the woman.“Hmph, why is it always my fault? You were the one taking hour upon hour to put that makeup on! My dad even called a couple of times to hurry us since Mr. Crawford will be arriving. It’ll be an embarrassment if we are

Gerald frowned, unhappy, but he walked over to their table anyway.“Whoa, Madam Lewis, is this one of your students? He looks pretty good... hey, why isn’t he in a uniform?” said a woman next to Montana.“Yeah, look, all the waiters here are in their uniforms, and he’s the only one not wearing it!”“I guess he must be the handyman then. He’ll work wherever there’s work to be done, so he should be a temporary worker.”Montana tried to find a reasonable explanation.“Haha yeah, come here, little guy, come to my side. There’s an empty seat beside me. Come sit and have a chat!”“Yeah, little cutie, don’t be shy! It’s a rare chance to dine among so many rich and young CEO today, so you’ve got to appreciate your time here!”In their late twenties, a few women saw how Gerald looked quite handsome and cute, and they tried to tease him.Montana rolled her eyes. “What are you staring at? Can’t you see that they’ve asked you to sit down?! Are you that dumb? Four years of college for not

“Huh? Miss Lewis? Why are you here?”The girl was surprised.“Morgana, why are you here at Cape Grace? Didn’t you say you were hanging out tonight with the group at Buntingford Grand Hotel?”Morgana was surprised as well.Morgana, the girl Montana chose as the class representative, and now a doctor at the county hospital!“Forget about it. The hotel is closed for a few days, so we came to Cape Grace, but it seems they have some kind of event today. Luckily, we booked early, or we wouldn’t have gotten a place!”Morgana shrugged, grumbling away.She seemed to have not noticed Gerald, who was just standing by her side.“Miss Lewis, how could you have been so careless? You’ve got red wine all over your clothes!” asked Morgana.“Hmph! Don’t even ask. I’m here for a business event, and it was all because of that bastard Gerald! He got the wine all over me!”Montana rolled her eyes at Gerald.Only then did she notice Gerald who was standing close by.“Why are you here, Gerald? Don

“Huh?”When Gerald turned around, he saw a middle-aged man hurrying toward him.They did not seem to recognize the man.Could he have known Gerald personally?Gerald stepped out of the crowd.“Damn, Gerald. Why did you go for it? Didn’t you hear how he was calling for one, Mr. Gerald?”“Haha, yeah! Aren’t you embarrassed?”The few friends from high school followed Gerald as they laughed.Even Morgana was laughing as she covered her mouth.Montana rolled her eyes again and again at Gerald.“I must have made him drunk... I’m speechless!”Montana shook her head and sighed.“Mr. Crawford, I’ve brought your car for you. It’s in Sector-C of the parking lot. Here are the keys, and the master instructed me to ask you to return early.”“I got it, Mr. Lyle. If there’s nothing else, you should head back.”Then, a boy next to Cameron stepped out and shook his head with a chuckle.“F*ck... I think he mistook him!”Gerald felt a little embarrassed.“You’re hilarious, aren’t you? You

“Congratulations, Mr. Duffy, for winning a gold keyboard worth 15,000 dollars!”The host spun the wheel again.Ding!“Congratulations to…”“…”Three prizes were sent out subsequently.Ding!“Congratulations, Mr. Jonathan Ladd! You’ve won an emerald jade bracelet worth 30,000 dollars!”“Ahh!!!”Montana was dizzy with excitement as she heard the emcee’s announcement.The audience burst into applause too.The prize alone was just a part of the raffle.More importantly, Montana could go up the stage with Jonathan, the same stage which the other big shots stood on. Besides, there were a ton of reporters on the side.Gosh!What more could a woman ask for?Montana was so elated that she even smacked Gerald on the cheek. She was just too excited, and the smack felt like it was no big deal!“Who will be the one to go home with the grand prize?”The voice of the emcee echoed loudly, and the crowd fell into a hush.As the pointer dropped, the crowd’s eyes widened in anticipation
