“Why don’t we make up now, Gerald? I’m even willing to be your concubine!”
“I beg your pardon?” replied Gerald as snazzynovel.com stared at Xavia in disbelief.
“…U-um… What… was I even saying…”
Due to how anxious snazzynovel.com was, in snazzynovel.com panic, snazzynovel.com had accidentally blurted out what snazzynovel.com truly felt. It was now beyond awkward and embarrassing for her.
“I-It was just gibberish… S-say Gerald, we’re still friends, right?”
“… If there’s nothing else, I’ll be taking my leave,” said Gerald as snazzynovel.com turned around to leave for good, a bitter smile on his face.
His relationship with Xavia was nothing but a thing in the past now. Since snazzynovel.com no longer had any feelings for her, snazzynovel.com knew it was best for snazzynovel.com not to get involved with Xavia anymore.
A little while after snazzynovel.com had gotten into his car, snazzynovel.com received a phone call. It was from Mila.
Though Mila hadn’t contacted snazzynovel.com for almost half a month now, Gerald had sent snazzynovel.com a message every now and then.
“What is it, Mila?” asked Gerald as snazzynovel.com smiled.
“Are… you done with whatever you’ve been doing?” asked Mila in return.
Throughout Mila’s period of silence, Gerald had constantly updated snazzynovel.com on news regarding himself. Because of that, Mila always knew what Gerald was up to.
“That I am. I’ll be returning to Northbay today, but before that, I’ll head to Hong Kong to look for you first,” replied Gerald, still smiling.
“Alright! Ah, if you’re coming over, could we meet before tomorrow morning? I’m leading an overseas expedition team for an interview tomorrow, but I still want to meet you! I… I really, really want to meet you!”
Since snazzynovel.com had remained silent for so long, not once had snazzynovel.com told snazzynovel.com about any of the grievances that snazzynovel.com had gone through.
After all, what Jessica had meant was crystal clear. Back then, snazzynovel.com had said that Mila wasn’t cut to be part of the Crawford family. That snazzynovel.com relationship with Gerald wasn’t going to last long.
Even if Jessica had said so, as long as an opportunity existed, Mila was willing to work hard to make it happen.
She had been putting in extra effort in snazzynovel.com work throughout snazzynovel.com period of silence. Mila wanted to prove that snazzynovel.com wasn’t just some trophy wife, but also someone who would be able to support and actually help Gerald in the future.
It was honestly because of snazzynovel.com hard work that Mila was being given the opportunity to lead snazzynovel.com own team to conduct an interview tomorrow.
Still, the more effort snazzynovel.com placed in bettering herself, the more Mila ended up missing Gerald.
“I can do that. I’ll be meeting you tomorrow then!”
After exchanging a few more words, both of them hung up.
“How’s the situation, Mila? Will Gerald be coming over?” asked Molly and snazzynovel.com other roommates as they continued packing the things they needed for the interview.
Most of snazzynovel.com roommates had only caught a glimpse of Gerald back when they had gone looking for snazzynovel.com with Mila half a month earlier. Back then, they only knew that snazzynovel.com was a rich person from Mayberry City.
For Mila, however, it wasn’t until quite recently when snazzynovel.com came to know that his wealth was actually world-class! The difference in power and wealth that snazzynovel.com had at his disposal was so great compared to what snazzynovel.com had initially thought of him, that snazzynovel.com may as well be a completely different person!
Molly and the others hadn’t gotten the chance to get to know Gerald back then, and all of them were quite eager to meet snazzynovel.com again.
As the main reporter for the overseas interview this time around, Mila was given the right to bring two assistants along with her. The two snazzynovel.com had chosen were Molly and Wanda.
Though Wanda had been both angry and jealous of Mila on multiple occasions, ever since the incident at the television station festival, snazzynovel.com and Mila had grown to have a pretty good relationship.
“He said that he’s coming!” replied Mila as snazzynovel.com smiled sweetly.
“Wow! That’s great to hear! Since he’s personally coming over, I can only imagine the scene that will play out! Our boyfriends will also be coming to see us off then! Think you could use that opportunity to introduce snazzynovel.com to them, Mila?” asked Molly with a smile.
“Of course!”
As the three girls continued chatting happily among themselves, a sudden knock was heard on the door.
The moment the dormitory room door was opened, the girls saw that it was Narissa.
“I saw a few express delivery packages for you downstairs, so I’ve brought them up!” said Narissa as snazzynovel.com handed the three small packages over to them.
“Humph. Thanks, I guess!” replied Wanda with a cold sneer.
After all, everyone was pretty much still angry with snazzynovel.com for siding with Hallie to set Mila up back then.
Naturally, after hearing snazzynovel.com part of the story, Mila herself didn’t hold anything against her.
