Chapter 62 Gerald Meets His Best Friend
“I just heard you threatening my father, right?”
Gerald glanced at Kyrie with a cold and emotionless look.
It made Kyrie, who was sitting on the sofa, feel as if he had fallen into the abyss and tremble in fear.
“…” Kyrie stuttered, scared by Gerald’s eyes.
When Mason saw this scene, his expression changed slightly. He was worried that Gerald would be
sent to prison again for hitting people. After all, Gerald had just been released, so Mason hurriedly said
to Kyrie, “Just go. I can’t sign
this contract.”
Kyrie wanted to threaten Mason again, but under Gerald’s gaze, he did not dare to speak and stood up
with his
briefcase.
When Kyrie passed by Gerald, Gerald’s cold voice rang in his ear, “If you dare to call people to find
trouble, you will bear the consequences.”
Gerald could imagine what kind of suffering his parents had encountered in the past nine years.
In the past, Gerald was in Night Watch and could not come back, nor could he do anything.
But now, he was back. He would not let his parents suffer any grievance.
Kyrie swallowed hard and walked past Gerald.
Seeing him leave, Gerald put away his cold and murderous aura. He put down his backpack and
looked at Mason, saying, “Dad, I’m sorry. I made you worry about me for nine years.”
Mason was in tears. His nose wrinkled as he said, “It’s good that you can come back. You know what?
In these nine years, your mother and I went to the prison to see you many times, but we didn’t see you
once. I’m fine, but your mother has always been very sad. But now you are back.”
Gerald’s nose was a little sour. He looked around and said, “Oh, right, where is my mother?”
“Your mother went to your aunt’s. It’s your aunt’s birthday today. I was going to go with her, but Kyrie
called me and said that he had something to talk to me about, so I stayed. Since you are back, go with
me to meet your aunt and the others,” said Mason.
As he said that, Mason sighed again and said, “Ever since your incident, the Kenneth family cut off all
ties with us. Only your mother’s relatives stay with us and don’t leave us alone.”
Mason felt a lot better. He patted Gerald on the shoulder and said, “Let’s go, I’ll take you there.”
Gerald nodded, threw his backpack on the sofa, and went out with Mason.
Mason had a handsome annual income. Now he bought a mansion and had a good car. After getting
into the car, Mason kept telling Gerald about what had happened in the past nine years. There seemed
to be endless things he
wanted to tell Gerald.
Gerald listened to him quietly.
In fact, Gerald knew a lot of things.
Although he could not meet his parents when he was in Night Watch, he had always paid attention to
their affairs.
Soon, they arrived at a community. After parking the car, they walked toward a building.
Just as they went downstairs, Gerald suddenly looked in a direction. A young man in his twenties was
walking out of the community with his head lowered.
Gerald’s eyes lit up slightly. Gerald knew this person. It was Jacob Eden, Gerald’s playmate since they
were children.
Jacob was not from a rich family, but he had a very good relationship with Gerald. They had known
each other since kindergarten, and they had been classmates since they graduated from high school.
After graduating from high school, Gerald was admitted to California State University. Jacob was not
good at studying, so he was admitted to a plain university. Since Gerald was imprisoned, they lost
contact.
Jacob’s appearance had not changed much during the past nine years, but he seemed to have been
rejected and was a little dejected.
“Dad, go to Lilia’s place first. I will join you later,” Gerald said.
“Huh?” Mason was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, “Your aunt’s house is in Building 7-8.
I will tell them about your return in advance.”
Gerald nodded.
After saying goodbye to his father, Gerald ran over to Jacob.
Jacob walked to the gate of the community. He was carrying two gifts in his hands. At this time, he was
standing on the road and seemed to be waiting for a taxi.
“Jacob,” Gerald’s lips moved slightly as he called to Jacob.
“Huh?” Jacob replied. He turned his head and looked over. When he saw Gerald, his dejection instantly
disappeared. Then, he widened his eyes in surprise and said happily, “Damn it! Gerald!”
Gerald was mused when he saw Jacob’s surprised look.
Jacob had not seen Gerald for nine years, and Gerald was treated as a rapist. But Jacob was not afraid
or disdained Gerald at all when he saw Gerald. Instead, Jacob was happy and excited.
This was Gerald’s best friend.
Jacob put the gifts on the ground and walked to Gerald. He punched Gerald in the chest and said,
“Damn, you suddenly disappeared before. I asked your classmates who have a good relationship with
you. They all said that you were arrested for raping women.
“What happened back then?” Jacob looked Gerald up and down and asked.
“You don’t doubt me?” Gerald asked in surprise.
“I know you well! You don’t have the guts to do that, although you are indeed lustful,” Jacob said with a
smile.
Gerald was speechless.
He coughed and sighed, “It’s a long story. I don’t know what exactly happened back then. The only
thing I can be sure of is that I was framed.”
“So you spent nine years in prison for nothing?” Jacob frowned and asked.
“I was taken away as soon as I was imprisoned, and then I was admitted by a mysterious troop. Three
years ago, I lost my memory because of a mission, and I only recovered my memory recently,” Gerald
said seriously.
Jacob was stunned by Gerald’s words. After hearing that, he said with a dumbfounded look, “Are you
kidding me?”
AL
Gerald sighed. He had told the truth, but Jacob didn’t believe it.
However, Gerald was still very happy. They had not seen each other for nine years, but they were not
estranged from
each other.
Looking at the gifts in his hand, Gerald frowned and asked, “What about you? I saw you looked
dejected just now. Did you run into trouble at work? They rejected your gifts?”
“No,” Jacob sighed and continued. “I went to see my father–in–law and was kicked out.”
“You were driven away?” Gerald asked in surprise. “What happened?”
“It’s all because of money.” Jacob sighed again. “My girlfriend and I started dating in my junior year at
university. It has been six years now. You know, my parents are workers and they don’t have much
savings. I was not doing well in my study, so after I graduated, I found a very plain job, to be a
salesman. I spent five years saving up some money. With my parents‘ help, I was barely able to scrape
together a down payment on a house in Sacramento.”
“I thought that i could marry my girlfriend when I got a house. But their conditions are really…”
Speaking of this, Jacob shook his head.
Gerald frowned and said, “What are their conditions?”
“First, we have to add my girlfriend’s name to the housing contract. That’s fine because I love her, but
they asked for 160 thousand dollars of bride price,” Jacob said.
Gerald was stunned for a moment.
160 thousand dollars was indeed too much for an ordinary person.
“Why did they ask for so much?” Gerald asked in surprise.
“She has a younger brother. Maybe her family wants to buy a house for his younger brother, so they
asked me for 160 thousand dollars. Anyway, if I can’t give them 160 thousand dollars, I can’t marry my
girlfriend, and we have to break
up.”
“What’s your girlfriend’s opinion?” Gerald asked.
Speaking of this, Jacob sighed again, “She spoke up for her family. She said that she wanted to be with
me for a lifetime, but if I was not even willing to give them 160 thousand dollars, it meant that I didn’t
love her enough.
“Didn’t she know that you couldn’t afford it?” Gerald asked with a frown.
“She did, but she didn’t change her mind. Moreover, she said that her family has set her up on a blind
date. If I can’t fork out 160 thousand dollars, I will have to break up.” Jacob once again lowered his
head in dejection.
Gerald was speechless. Jacob’s girlfriend was foolish.
