A female voice could be heard on the other end.“It was average at best, unsightly at worst. Vice-Chancellor Dalton is currently at Tree of Life Medical Tower, recuperating. He's been unconscious for close to twenty-four hours. He might need more time to recuperate. I think the people who went by the Wes family really did a number on him.”Chancellor Vexley sighed as he gazed out with a mocking smile.“Oh, Julian Dalton; that good boy of mine. I don't know why he decided to settle on such a treacherous path now when things have been going smoothly.”The feminine voice replied.“From what I know, Sir, Professor Julian was on board with the Wes-Dalton alliance, but after what happened at his birthday, greatly angering Chairman Rainier of the Institute of Antiquarian and Archaeologist, he couldn't handle having such a careless man as his future son-in-law.”Chancellor Vexley sneered.“Bullshit. We all know that Julian never truly agreed to having his daughter settle into the Wes family.
Chapter 201
The next morning, Gerald attended his classes with no hassles. Freddy and Amara didn't show up, and Richard was able to get some information on their whereabouts. It turns out they were preparing for the fashion week on the final day of the promotional event for Crimson & Crown Mega-mall.As for Alex and Susan, he did see them around, but they practically avoided him and his crew like the plague, much to Terry's happiness.“Damn, it's days like this that remind me how peaceful attending classes, and just being on campus overall, can be so….calming? Casual? Normal? I can't put my finger on it, but I guess it's all of these positive moods.”Gerald chuckled at Terry's overreaction. “It doesn't matter. Let's just enjoy the calm before the storm, for as long as it lasts.”It would be quite naive of these two young men to believe that something wasn't brewing beneath this calm day. Alex and Susan might look uninterested in starting another drama with Gerald, but that couldn't be further f
Chapter 200
Gerald wanted to say more than this. He liked Juliet. Beyond the sex, he genuinely began having feelings for her, but he was still sane enough to keep his mouth from uttering those three words, which would more than likely ruin the lustful atmosphere between them, making the rest of the journey to climax city a terribly awkward one.Gerald knew his best friends - both Terry and Juliet - well enough. Though they met as freshmen at Westbridge University, they had all gotten close pretty quickly.Gerald understood that Juliet didn't do well with new relationships while still grappling with some strings from past ones. Gerald's confession would only make her feel stifled as she still believes there was no escape from Steven that wouldn't result in the Dalton family falling from grace.Therefore, Gerald was careful with the words he spoke to Juliet, especially knowing that saying them in this state would most likely come off as disingenuous to Juliet later. His confession would be perceiv
Chapter 199
Gerald wasn't hurt at all by Juliet's words, belittling his power before that of the Wes family and the Chancellor Abraham Vexley. After all, he had only allowed her and everyone else who knew him to believe that he had no influence or status. All that he supposedly had was the $500 million he had gotten from the deceased former president of Aventos Bank.Still, Gerald wasn't going to sit back and let Juliet and her father keep suffering like this. He would definitely have to do something to keep the Wes family and Chancellor Vexley at bay. At the very least, he needed to keep the Dalton family away from their range of influence.Gerald began to concoct his plans, but he had no intention of sharing them with Juliet. First of all, revealing these plans would be alluding to the hidden fact that he actually has status and influence far beyond both the West family and that of Chancellor Vexley,. Then secondly, there was no point in telling Juliet anything. It was better to just let her
Chapter 198
The bald bodyguard was suddenly struck by Kevin's aura, causing him to involuntarily take a couple of steps back from him with eyes filled with shock. He couldn't explain it but suddenly had trouble looking Kevin in the eyes.Unknown to this bald bodyguard, Kevin had used his murderous intent on him. Unfortunately, his fellow bodyguards and his boss, Steven Wes, had just witnessed his actions, alluding to his cowardice before Kevin. This was a two-time defeat for the proud son of the Wes family.Steven had a bitter expression as he glared at Gerald. He could very much still taste the dirt and grass that Gerald had shoved in his mouth following his defeat.“Gerald Stark, huh? Very good. I won't forget this day.”Gerald nodded his head with that teasing smirk.“That was the point of dealing you a solid defeat today. So that you never forget it for the rest of your life.”Steven spat out to the side, eyes still glaring heatedly at Gerald as he spoke “Juliet, our date is cancelled for
Chapter 197
Steven was pissed off as he rushed back on his feet.“You really believe that I'm a pusher, right? Well, you're about to find out just how easy I've been going on you through our previous encounters. I'm well-trained in various martial arts styles with significant mastery over each of them. I didn't want to deal with you back then out of mercy for Juliet! But it seems someone really needs to teach you a lesson!”Juliet rushed forward but was immediately stopped by one of Steven's bodyguards and one of the AFSB Squad-9 bodyguards. There was an immediate understanding between these subordinates. They were clearly not allowed to interfere in the fight between these two bosses, but they must make sure that Mus Juliet is not harmed in any way.Juliet was stunned by this. She glared at the two bodyguards, unable to believe they were willing to work together to keep her away from convincing the two men not to beat each other up.“Have you guys let your sense of priority or what?! Your bosse
