Jasmine really could not help in resolving the issue even if she wanted to. Although she wanted to lend Isabelle a helping hand, she could not use her identity as a member of the Fenderson family to help them. On the other side, Gerald saw a large group of people rushing into the union class. Isabelle was almost scared to death when this happened.Even Warren appeared to be slightly frightened now. Clearly, the incident was spiraling rapidly out of control.“What should we do now? It seems like the faculty director can’t hold them back for long!” Isabelle cried in fear as she said so. At last, Warren looked at Maia. “Maia, didn’t you exchange your contact information with Yuna the other day? If we’re really out of options now, go and look for help from Yuna. She did say that we could hit her up if we’re facing any problems.” Maia said, “But I’m worried that Yuna was just being nice to us. After all, what kind of status and identity does she have? How sure are you that she
At that moment, Gerald drove his car straight to Barry’s villa.When he reached that place, he discovered that there were lots of cars parked outside the gates.Barry had very complicated interpersonal relationships. There were tons of people who wanted to see him. Knowing this, Gerald wasn’t even remotely surprised at the discovery. It only meant that he had to park his car further away from the house. Walking into the place, he found that Barry was indeed loaded with jobs to do. There was quite a long line leading up to the door of his office.It was more or less like what Zack experienced. There were lots of people standing outside the door. It seemed like Barry had to see every single one of them.Gerald chuckled painfully to himself. After that, he approached the villa.“Maia, how long are we going to wait? There are tons of people here. My dad hasn’t returned home yet. I’m worried sick!” Standing at the side, Isabelle and the others waited.At that moment, they we
“Who is this person? How impolite can he be?! Can’t he even act like a decent human being?” “That’s right. It’s the door to Mr. Zartyr’s villa. How dare he walk in as if this was his house? Didn’t he see that we’re standing in a line” For a moment, a lot of people started whispering among themselves. As for Maia and Isabelle, they were waiting to see how Gerald would be humiliated in front of everybody.It was because Barry was a big shot in Salford Province, and he had tremendous influence. Besides, he was particularly keen about maintaining tradition and acting with prudence. If anyone acted imprudently, that person would be reprimanded heavily.At that moment, Gerald knocked on a door. The door to the living room was opened by a butler. “This guy is looking for it, courting death he is!” “Does he think that he can get ahead of us by acting like this? Ha ha!” “I know lots of kids like him. He’ll only make a laughing stock out of himself. He’s destined to be unable to
At that moment, Maia said, “Actually, I’m not sure if we’re even friends at the moment. Even if I asked him to help me, it’s quite likely that he’ll turn me down. But I’ll give it a try!” She reluctantly whipped out her cell phone and called Gerald’s number.She felt conflicted about this. To be forced to beg for help from someone who she was looking down on. Not to mention the fact that she had once hurt him with painful words in the past.But she indeed needed Gerald’s help to resolve that issue. It did not occur to Gerald that Maia, who was as proud as a peacock, would call him up at this moment.In that instant, he burst out laughing to himself.“What’s wrong?” Gerald asked. “Gerald, you… do you know Mr. Zartyr?” Maia’s voice was extremely soft. “Yes, I do know him! Just tell me what you want to say!” Gerald said lightly. “You should be aware that we’re in great trouble now. If you do know him, I hope that you can help introduce us to him or at the very least, menti
“It’s a long story. I won’t be able to explain it to you clearly in just a few sentences!” Gerald smiled and said. At that moment, a few servants entered the room in a respectful manner before serving Isabelle and Maia some tea. “Gerald, I don’t know what kind of relationship you have with Mr. Zartyr. But you know very well that we’re facing a dire threat at the moment. If you’re able to help, I sincerely hope that you do so as soon as you can!” Maia said. Isabelle nodded vigorously. “Gerald, I’ll apologize to you. After this, I don’t care how you will treat me. I just want you to give us a hand!” “Alright, I’ll mention it to Mr. Zartyr. But after this thing blows over, I hope that I have something to gain out of this!” Gerald looked at them and said with a smile. If they had come earlier, Gerald would have helped them, no questions asked, despite how cold and aloof Maia treated him. But the situation was different now. His heart had gone numb at this point.Now, G
That woman kept addressing her as “young lady”. They appeared to be in a hurry, and they wanted to stay there. But there was one thing which puzzled the old man. That woman claimed that they did not have money at that moment and that they would need to wait until the next afternoon before someone could send them the money. Hence, they asked the old man not to worry about that.But the old man had been running the hotel for some long now. He was a seasoned veteran in the game of life.How would he be willing to compromise? Realizing that they had failed to persuade him, the beautiful woman, who was holding the baby, took out a jade pendant and handed it to the old man. Fortunately, the old man was an antique enthusiast. The moment he saw that jade pendant, he knew instantly that it was an expensive item. He saw a name—Xara which was being engraved on that jade pendant clearly. He slowly realized that they might have special origins.Hence, he did not dare to offend them.H
“That old man said that there was another group of people who met him before we came. They too, inquired about the incident and asked for the maid’s whereabouts,” said Barry.Gerald was baffled. ‘Who could it be?’ He thought that this was a simple task given to him by his father to look for a person. Looks like things are more complicated than he initially thought. But Gerald did not dwell on it much since it was useless. What he needed to do now was to locate where that maid was, ASAP. In that instant, Gerald made some preparations and prepared to go to Howard County. At the same time, he called up The Drake & Tyson Duo, ordering them to bring some people along and be there as soon as possible. And it was also the same moment that he received a message in the group chat of his class. It was a message sent by the counselor. Gerald took a look at it...It was around this time.In a luxury car. “Miss, we still haven’t found where the ex-young lady is. But we did find a
Gerald said with a smile on his face.In the past, Xyla was also a member of the high school competition team. He remembered that she was in the same class as Vincy, so her academic results must’ve been really good.But how about her personality? She was the sunny type of girl, the type of girl who just oozed youthful vibes wherever she went. She vaguely resembled Maia in terms of appearance.But they were different. Xyla had a lot of guy friends. Those guys were either ruffians who were terrible at their studies but with good social relations, or they were rich kids from influential families. In short, she was a girl who enjoyed a lot of connections, and she enjoyed herself vehemently. Despite this, her academic results were particularly outstanding. She was also a rather emotional girl. Moreover, Gerald had all sorts of brief episodes with her in the past which were unspeakable, to say the least. Hmph! Now, it seemed like Xyla had gotten into Salford University wit
