Mr. Leach’s tone was icy as he said that. “Fair, right, and proper you say? As if! From what we’ve found, your subordinates had been lying in wait in their cars for at least two hours before the event even took place! Are you saying that they were able to foresee tonight’s incident that early on?” “While the surveillance system in the hotel was conveniently out of order today, they’re still working just fine in other places! Let’s just cut to the chase, Mr. Leach. I’m sure you know a lot more about today’s incident than me, am I right?” interrogated Gerald. This was the first time Gerald had ever been framed. His sister had previously told him that doing business would be both a test, and a chance for him to gain experience. Gerald hadn’t felt the weight of her words before this, but he realized just how true her statement was now. Despite hearing Gerald’s words, Mr. Leach refused to talk and simply averted his gaze. To him, regardless of how powerful Gerald was, it was onl

Gerald sighed to himself. ‘I’ll just go and explain it to her… I’ll reveal to her what kind of person Yunus really is!’ “Fine, I’ll head over now!” said Gerald. It was now already six in the evening and this time, Gerald didn’t go alone. The Drake & Tyson duo followed him all the way to Giya’s home. When they arrived at the front gates, the duo waited outside as Gerald entered. “There, there, Giya… Please don’t be sad anymore… Though I’m not quite sure what happened between the two of you, today’s still the day you received the title of most outstanding student of recommendation to be admitted to the university… It’s a day for celebration, isn’t it?” persuaded Tammy. “Besides, maybe one day Gerald will come to realize just how good you are!” Giya simply sneered when she heard that. “Stop trying to persuade me, Tammy. The thing that happened between me and Gerald isn’t as simple… Actually, forget about it. I don’t want to talk about it anymore. Whenever I think of him

“The thing is, I don’t feel easy about this at all, Mr. Long. I hope that you’re aware that because of you, I ended up not only offending Mr. Crawford, but also the Owens family. You know, Mr. Crawford’s men were looking for me all over Mayberry City yesterday. If Miss Rosalie actually decides to look into the case in future, then I’ll surely be done for!” The speaker, then added, “I’ve already given up everything just to help you this time, so fork out the cash as soon as possible. The sooner I leave this godforsaken place, the better. It isn’t a stretch to say that the Owens family will eventually find out who really laid their hands on Miss Rosalie. Should that happen, chaos will surely ensue. After all, the Longs and the Owens have had so many business dealings together!” “D*mn it, Harry! Are you threatening me?” replied Yunus as he snorted coldly. Yunus had indeed been the one who had set up both Rosalie and Gerald back in the hotel. It was part of his plan to gather capable

Tammy sounded confident with her words. “It’s not like I want to see that s*umbag ever again anyway!” replied Giya. “Hey, hey! Are you two done talking yet? If you aren’t aware, you’re being held hostage! Are you pretending that I don’t exist now? Huh?!” said Harry angrily. Hearing that, Tammy was so frightened that she immediately went silent. Rubbing the bridge of his nose, Harry then took Giya’s cell phone from her. “Look, I don’t care which rich heir you’re talking about, I just want my god d*mn money!” grumbled Harry as he looked through Giya’s contacts to find Yunus. “Giya? Why are you calling me out of the blue?” asked Yunus in an affectionate and doting tone as soon as he picked up Harry’s call. “Cut the cr*p already! Giya’s in my hands now. If you don’t want your precious Giya to encounter any ‘accidents’, I propose that you hand the money you owe me right this instant! I’ll free them after that!” cursed Harry through the phone. “What?! Harry?! You’re brave, I’

While it was true that Gerald felt that Giya shouldn’t have distrusted him since he had already helped her so much in the past, he didn’t really feel any enmity toward her. In fact, he honestly didn’t want to cause any further harm to her. The way he saw it, since he no longer had anything to do with her anymore, she would no longer need to suffer because of him. “That’s what I like to hear! You know, now I feel a little guilty for setting you up like that… Regardless, I’m currently at…” After Harry relayed his location and detailed a few more things, both of them hung up. Giya now had tears trickling down her cheeks. “He… He doesn’t hate me at all! He’s still willing to put himself in danger because of me!” said Giya to herself as she felt her heart melt. Moving back to Gerald, he notified Drake and Tyson about some things before personally driving to the location he had been given. It wasn’t long before he arrived with a bag of money in hand. As Gerald stepped out of
