“Hey, dad!”Gerald called out respectfully, answering the video call.Although it wasn’t the first time he video called his father after discovering his true identity, Gerald had somewhat grown to be more respectful towards his father.He increasingly felt how honorable of a man his father was.“What are you up to now, son?”Gerald’s father broke into a smile the moment his son came on the screen.“Am just about to rest, Dad. What’s up with the late call? Anything you need to tell me?”“Yes, I do. I was initially planning to ask your sister to look into this matter. As I’m aware, you spend most of your time and energy, focusing on your homework. This thing will be delayed since your sister has gone to handle factory issues in North Africa. I wonder if she’d already told you about it?”“You need my help finding a woman?”Gerald recalled his sister’s instructions and what she confided in him previously. She had asked for his assistance in looking for a particular woman.“Yes, I

“Pfft! No wonder Queta dared to disobey me today. It turns out she’s gotten herself a boyfriend! Wow, this is pissing me off right now!”Kaitlyn rolled her eyes as she glared at Gerald, who was talking to Queta at that time.“Kaitlyn, what’s wrong?”The man leaning against his car door had his hands in his pockets asked as he threw a quick look at Gerald.“It’s all because of Queta! All the kids are on vacation today, so we’re supposed to stay back in school to review their homework. But I’ve made plans to go shopping and ask her to help me review my students’ homework! But look, she refused to help just because her boyfriend’s here!”“I thought that she actually found a great boyfriend for herself, but he turned out to be nothing more than a pathetic jerk!”Kaitlyn cried out in exasperation, explaining the details to him.She saw that Gerald had on a simple white T-shirt, a pair of sports pants and some sneakers.She couldn’t be bothered to filter any of her words.“That’s ri

”F*ck! How is it that they’re eating so well?”Kaitlyn was shocked.The vanity from her face was thoroughly washed away. “Pfft! Why are you showing off when you have no money? Why bother ordering something that expensive?” mocked Kaitlyn.The other two female colleagues who felt the burn also chimed in as they mocked the pair.Gerald and Queta were really eating very well. Both of them ordered the expensive and large portion of foie gras, while the other four only ordered a small serving to share among themselves.As the waiter served the dish to them, he could not help but give them a look.Gerald chose to keep quiet because Queta kept persuading him, and she didn’t want him to confront them directly.They simply continued chatting as they ate.Once they were done eating, he then realized that Kaitlyn and the others had already left. They obviously couldn’t take the humiliation, so they left in a hurry once they were done with their meals.“Let’s leave too,” said Gerald w

“Well, what exactly happened?” asked Gerald, confused. “See, this place was originally a construction project. The Weston Merchants Holdings were hired to oversee the job about a year ago. Apparently, the developers used less than appropriate quality materials and because of that, there’s been a collapse around the project area. More than a hundred people were injured because of this, sixty of whom were workers! Thankfully, no lives were lost this time around!” “Yep. I heard that the developers ran for the hills last night! Those from Weston Merchants Holdings are definitely in hot water now. About a dozen people, including Mr. Jung, have been dismissed from their positions, or so I’ve heard! They’re waiting to be dealt with at this very moment!” replied the workers. As Gerald recalled, Mr. Jung was the director of Weston Merchants Holdings. He had been dismissed as well? After thinking about it for a while, Gerald asked, “Why would the developers need to run away? Since no liv

“Uncle Jung, Aunt Leia, I’ve come to visit!” said Gerald with a smile on his face as he carried a bag of gifts into their house. Leia simply looked at him without saying anything else as he placed the bag down. Willie himself was already on the sofa again, looking toward the ceiling without even caring to reply to Gerald’s greeting. Leila felt embarrassed seeing Gerald get ignored like this since she knew that Gerald was probably doing very well in Mayberry City. After all, he had been the one who had sent her to the station the other day in a big Mercedes Benz G500! In all honesty, Leila was slightly grateful toward Gerald. However, she hadn’t had the time to tell her father about this yet. By the time Leila got home yesterday, this series of unfortunate events had already kicked off. Even then, her father was already on the verge of collapsing from all the pressure. How could she ever tell him about how much fun she had had? Sensing the awkwardness, Leila walked over
