Gerald must have taken a while to properly explain the whole situation to Mila.
By the time she finished, Mila was no longer angry.
Gerald sighed. He never anticipated the crazy girl to actually pick up and answer his phone.
He was stuck in a very awkward position right now.
“Say, Gerald, sit down. There's something I want to ask you,” Giya said as she looked at him. On his face was a polite smile.
“I'm fine standing up. What's your question?"
"Do you really like Mila?"
“Of course I know!” gerald replied without hesitation.
Giya took a deep breath before continuing. “Then, if that's the case, why did you give me such an expensive gift? If you're not aware, when I find out that it's the most priceless gift your family can offer, I'm deeply moved! ”
“I've never been in a relationship before, Gerald. Although many other men have given me expensive gifts before, those gifts are different from yours. Your gift means a lot. And honestly, to me, you are different from other men.”
Deep down, Giya knows that she is trying to win Gerald's affection.
He couldn't explain the reason. He's just in love with her.
At first, she thought her long-distance relationship boyfriend wasn't threatening her. However, Giya now realizes how much Gerald cares about her.
Gerald on the other hand, was filled with self-deprecation at that moment.
He knew that the dragon jade bracelet had never been his family heirloom.
However, at the university that day, he couldn't say that just like that for fear that his identity would be revealed. His lies became the truth that day, at least for those who heard them.
He lied because he assumed back then that he was just a loser compared to Giya, Tammy, and the others.
The logic was that it was impossible for them to feel anything for him.
He could never have imagined the complex chain of events that would soon follow and eventually lead to today.
Now here he is, in a room with Giya. A Giya who has misunderstood his intentions ever since she gave him the bracelet.
It's getting too messy. Gerald knows he can't hide the facts from Giya anymore. There was no point in hiding his identity from her at this moment.
Gerald took a deep breath before saying, “Actually, Giya, I lied to you. The dragon jade bracelet is not a family heirloom like you and the other girls think. I bought two bracelets from the store, the dragon jade bracelet being one of them. You should have accepted the others, because I just wanted to replace the ones I broke. ”
"However, I somehow mixed the two up and gave you the wrong one" he said as he left the room. He immediately returned along with the two jade bracelets and placed them in front of Giya.
She doesn't want Giya to believe her lies anymore. With the evidence in front of him now, he definitely could not.
Giya bit her lower lip slowly before smiling bitterly. He nodded slowly.
“So that's the whole story..No man would be that stupid and give his family heirloom to a girl he barely even knew! I think I think too much about everything!”
Gerald lowered his head while sighing. The burden on his chest lifted. It feels a relief to finally be able to solve the problem with him.
“Alright then Gerald, I won't bother you anymore. I've thought about it and I know that I'll just trouble you more by staying here. I don't have to worry about my dad either. Although Yacob has many flaws, at least I can believe that he will be sincere. I'll be home now.”
As soon as he ended his sentence, he immediately stood up and started packing his things.
Giya has made up her mind. She's going home to get engaged to Yacob.
Gerald was uncomfortable but who was he to stop him?
He has Mila now. What right does it take to have an ambiguous relationship with another woman? With that thought in her head, she chose not to stop him.
As he sent Giya away, he thought that the incident was now completely over.
He was finally able to focus all his attention on the Serene County investment.
Some time later, Gerald received a call…
