Gerald took a couple of steps towards the bed as he began talking.“The Wes family. I know you're being pressured by them to consent to the union between your daughter and Steven. I'm also aware of the method they used against you to get what they want. It's disgusting to say the least.”Julian glared at Gerald.“So? What about it? What is it to you? If this is what you're here for, Gerald, you can leave. I don't want you burying my family matters. It simply doesn't concern you.”Gerald didn't expect to rapidly shut down like this, but knowing this man he was probably being cold right now out of concern for him. The vice-chancellor probably doesn't want Gerald getting mixed up in the dangers befalling him and his daughter.Understandably, this Professor also isn't aware of Gerald's true status and influence, and thus, believed that the young man could be easily eliminated by the other side, knowing what they're capable of, how far they are willing to go to get what they want, and the

Back to the present,Julian Dalton stared at Gerald in astonishment.“I can't believe you also know about the Chancellor. You really did your assignment, huh? Still, you haven't provided a solution.”Gerald smirked as he flipped his hands into his pockets, striking a confident pose.“Professor, I think it's high time you were elevated from being a 3rd-Rank member of the Institute of Antiquarian and Archeologist.”Julian was surprised by this before breaking into a chuckling fit.“Boy, be serious here. You wanna raise my position with the institute of Antiquarian and Archeologist? Are we talking about this same institution here? There are many antiquity and archeology experts out there who have been requesting an interview, in hopes of getting a chance to become a member, but have been outright declined. It takes a lot to get in through invitation, and it's even harder to get in through bribery. There was a family that spent close to $20 million just to build connections with the inst

Gerald was truly left stunned by this.“I'm sorry, what?”He then turned to Kevin and Richard to find the two direct subordinates shaking their heads at him. It appears that they had no idea about this, and are just finding out as well. Thus, Gerald turned his gaze back on the chief of the Neurology Department.“Director Jennings, what are you talking about?”The man nodded his head with a calm smile.“It's exactly what you've heard come out of my mind.”He gestured to his desk.“Please, have a seat. I have a hunch that we'll need to have this conversation.”Gerald had no issue with that, his cautious feeling faded out to curiosity now. Seated, he began his question.“You knew my mom. How? Since when?”Director Jennings intertwined his fingers over the desk as he replied.“I met your mother, Vivian, through your father. He and I became acquainted in his adult years. We met as college students, but we didn't interact that much until it was close to graduation. As for when I knew your

Director Jennings sighed, allowing a moment of silence to pass.“I guess what's meant to be was inevitable. But things aren't just as simple, Young Master Gerald.”Gerald raised an eyebrow of suspicion at this, slightly confused.“What do you mean by that?”Director Jennings was about to talk some more when he heard a knock on his door. With his permission, a nurse walked in, looking a bit flustered and intimidated at the same time. She had to walk past the group of five AFSB Squad-9 bodyguards who were heading out of the hospital minutes ago, on Gerald’s order to stay out in the parking lot. To the nurse, those five men were incredibly hot and carried such a masculine aura that she found attractive.“Director, the executive meeting today will be taking place in five minutes. I just came to remind you.”This nurse had just delivered her message when she turned to find the two tall men standing behind a richer-looking young man, and she immediately felt her head about to completely e

Gerald chuckled at this before humming in approval.“If I may ask? What made you change your mind now? And why were you so hesitant to begin with? If it were any other fashion designer being offered what was offered to you, they would have taken it in a heartbeat, especially when considering the unique predicament you were found in at the time.”Gloria's voice was hesitant before she spoke clearly.“Mr. Stark, I was hesitant at first due to the offer. My goal was to fight for the chance to register by attempting to meet with the manager herself, unscheduled, which sounds foolish considering my ass could have been easily hauled to jail for breaking and entering, I know. But back then, I couldn't see past my determination born out of desperation.”She allowed a moment to pass.“Mr. Stark, when you made me that offer, I was shocked. I was ready to go through hell to fight for the chance that was ruthlessly stolen by one of the closest people to me. I thought I didn't deserve such an opp

Her tone was especially soft when she said that. Gerald couldn't help but feel his heart tighten as he heard this. Ending the call, he was lost in a momentary daze, wondering what he had just felt.Growing up the way he did, Gerald's love life was quite low in both quantity and quality. Susan Reay was the first woman he started a relationship with, until he found out that it was never considered a true relationship by the other side. Susan had simply gotten with him for his brain and being a pushover for her.Once Susan had a chance to elevate with Alex Lambert, she didn't hesitate to kick him to the curb in the nastiest way possible. That wasn't a reciprocated love.Then there is Amara Lockhart, the first-ever person Gerald fell in love with. It was back when they were teenagers. With both grieving in the slums, Gerald stood beside her, treating her with as much love as he could back then while maintaining a friendship that seemed to become more That was until Amara's father struck

“Manager Steph, I want you to get Miss June an apartment once she's released from the hospital. It's currently not safe for her at all to go back to her house after what had happened to her studio.”Gerald took a sip of his alcoholic drink.“As much as I would like to confidently say that those idiots won't come after her again, this is the Blanks family we're talking about after all. Which group of blood relatives are more arrogant and empty-headed than those fools?”“Dealing with more trouble wouldn't be a problem for you, I'm quite certain of it, but the same can't be said for Miss June herself. It would put her on edge after the way she was assaulted today.”Stephanie replied firmly and with a respectful tone in her voice.“Understood, Young Master. I'll have an apartment near Crimson and a secluded fashion studio, fully equipped, ready for her. So should I have her administered in the list of upcoming fashion designers for the C-C Fashion show, under your name, Sir?”Gerald humm

Freddy tightened his fist as he glared at his older cousin“What the hell are you talking about? Are you saying that I failed my martial arts awards?!”Bianca scoffed with a mocking expression on her face.“Oh, come on! It's nothing that a little money thrown here and there can't make into fruition. Uncle and Aunt are always bragging about how strong you are at the family get-together. It turns out to be such a letdown.”Freddy felt truly insulted right now and he pointed at Bianca.“You take that back right now!”Bianca yelled back at him.“Or what?!”Before Freddy could say anything, Amara lurched to her feet with a firm tone.“Both of you, stop! Look at us! We're here fighting amongst each other when we should be thinking about the fashion show.”Diana, still depressed about her bald head underneath the wig, pointed at Nora.“None of these would have happened if it weren't for her! She's the one who coerced us into helping her break into that damn workshop, convincing us that with

“Then what do we do about this?”Amara voiced out the question on everyone's mind right now.Nora looked stressed, the hunger that had prompted her to steal a slice of pizza earlier was now long gone as she began pacing back and forth.“If that bitch becomes buddies with the freaking manager of C&C Mega-mall, then we're done for!”She stopped in her tracks and fed everyone else, placing a hand on her chest “I'm done for, that's for sure. Bianca will definitely come after me for revenge!”Diana chimed in with a skeptical look on her face though.“Guys, what if this is not as bad as we're making it out to be? What if Manager Stephanie is only providing aid on behalf of someone else?”The room went quiet briefly before Bianca shook her head.“And who would be so well respected by that fierce woman that she would be willing to use the family's resources to save an outsider with no benefit to offer her? The only family that the Vackers vow to is the Arnold family, and there's no way in h

Bianca's face lit up with a smile.“Yes! Not only will Bianca be seen as a disgraceful fashion designer who didn't deserve to have a showcasing spot on the runway, but even Gerald would face humiliation from the terrible wardrobe malfunction that would happen to him on stage, bringing his credibility as the latest global ambassador under great scrutiny.”It was definitely an appealing twi price for one deal, and none of these antagonists saw any problem with it.So it was decided. Gloria would be targeted during the final preparations of the fashion line, which should take place at the event itself, behind the stage. As long as her final fashion designs are tampered with, she, along with Gerald and any other model that would be walking the runway with her designs, would face absolute humiliation.This left the mood in Bianca's apartment elevating, and they proceeded to eat and party, much to Nora's relief, as her mouth was threatening to overflow with saliva. She was very hungry. M
