Gerald soon arrived at his seat. Even as snazzynovel.com sat down, a few of the wealthy businessmen were still not done proposing their toasts to Yunus.
At that moment, Xavia looked at Gerald, hinting with snazzynovel.com eyes for snazzynovel.com to take action.
“Just look at what they’re doing! Just wait till my godsister comes back!” said Yoel, dissatisfied.
Gerald simply took in a deep breath before picking his wine glass up and walking toward Xavia.
“…Brother? What are you doing?” asked Yoel.
“Don’t interfere. Mr. Crawford definitely knows what he’s doing!” said Zack though snazzynovel.com too was quite surprised when snazzynovel.com saw Gerald heading toward her. However, snazzynovel.com knew Gerald well enough to know that snazzynovel.com wouldn’t be doing this without a purpose.
“Ah, Mr. Crawford, you came here to propose a toast as well?”
As soon as the businessmen there saw him, they immediately made way for him.
They were all the same as Wallace. Regardless of whether they had the Long family backing them up or not, they couldn’t afford to offend Gerald.
After they hurriedly stood to the side, Gerald stood in front of Xavia.
Yunus was also there, and snazzynovel.com sneered at Gerald while staring at him, his hand in his pocket.
“I’d like to propose a toast to you, Xavia!” said Gerald as snazzynovel.com raised his wine glass.
While Xavia should have stood up to accept the toast, snazzynovel.com simply remained seated while slowly shaking the red wine in snazzynovel.com own glass.
Without the slightest warning, snazzynovel.com then splashed the red wine all over his face!
“I accept! This glass of red wine is to repay you for how much you hurt me in the past!” sneered Xavia.
“Also, don’t you dare call me Xavia anymore! You don’t have the right to use my name! Pay more attention to that in the future!”
“…What?”
Seeing snazzynovel.com splash the wine all over Gerald’s face left many, if not all, of the businessmen stunned.
F*ck! This wasn’t as simple a slap to the face anymore!
“Presumptuous!” shouted Zack as snazzynovel.com and a few others immediately stood up. A conflict was imminent.
However, Gerald simply wiped the wine off his face as snazzynovel.com signaled for the others to leave it be.
“Very well then, Miss Yorke. It should be fine for it to be done now, right?” asked Gerald as snazzynovel.com raised his wine glass again.
“Indeed!” replied Xavia as snazzynovel.com laughed slightly. However, after raising snazzynovel.com second glass of red wine, snazzynovel.com poured its contents all over Gerald’s head!
“This one’s for my personal revenge!”
Everyone was simply dumbfounded by the scene.
She finally drank a glass of red wine after Gerald’s third toast to her.
So it turned out that Xavia had personally been waiting to deal with snazzynovel.com there and then. Gerald couldn’t help but feel a slight bitterness in his heart as snazzynovel.com returned to his seat.
In all honesty, snazzynovel.com wasn’t afraid of snazzynovel.com at all. However, snazzynovel.com was already at wit’s end. He just didn’t know how else to deal with snazzynovel.com anymore.
Knowing that snazzynovel.com was still a virgin made it even harder for him. The whole situation just made Gerald feel very confused and conflicted.
After the banquet ended, Zack went to look for Zayden, the master appraiser who had come all the way from Northbay.
Gerald on the other hand, went to look for Xavia.
She knew that snazzynovel.com would definitely come looking for her, so snazzynovel.com was already waiting for snazzynovel.com outside the manor.
“I’ve done as you asked, Miss Yorke. I hope that you’ll order your men to leave Queta alone now! You’ve already achieved your goal of humiliating me today anyway!” said Gerald.
“Haha! Rest assured, I only hold a grudge against you. I don’t have a reason to hurt her. However, do remember that you still have to do two things for me!” replied Xavia.
Gerald sighed before saying, “Go on.”
“These two things are actually relatively simple for you to accomplish. Firstly, you’ll have to let me live in your Mountain Top Villa for a few days! And don’t worry, I won’t blackmail you into giving the entire building to me! You just have to let me live in it for a few days. That shouldn’t be too difficult, right?” asked Xavia.
“Not a problem!” replied Gerald as snazzynovel.com nodded.
