“Oh, don't call them. Waylon seems to be busy with family matters. And Xella, I called her, and she said she wasn't feeling well, so she didn't come too.”
“Ah, then I guess we'll meet them next time. By the way, Morgana, you never told us your secret; how did you progress so much? You switched industries almost too fast! ” ask Sharon. Upon hearing this question, Howard's expression turned awkward.
Morgana coughed, looking awkward too, “That's because of Gerald's help. And well, Howard helped me a lot too!”
"Gerald?" Upon hearing his name, both Sharon and Lilian were shocked. In reality, Sharon had asked them about every classmate, as if she was studying abroad and wanted to catch up with everyone, even though she had only been at Mayberry all along.
The two girls were eager to ask if Gerald was joining them, but they ended up asking about every classmate besides him. They couldn't help it because Gerald was a sensitive topic for both of them.
“Oh yes, you may not know this, but Gerald has done very well! He's a completely different person now!” Morgana exclaimed with gratitude.
Lilian and Sharon fell silent. How could they not know he was a different man now?
"Hmph, he only has a few connections around that area, big deal!" Howard grunting. Now that Gerald has turned his attention away from her, Howard's reputation in the classroom is no longer at the top. During high school, he and Waylon were both the talk of the class. But apparently. Lately, all they've been talking about is Gerald.
Suddenly, one of the girls said in a surprised tone, “Friends, look! Not Gerald? Why is he here?”
"Huh?" Everyone turned their heads in the direction he pointed, and Gerald's silhouette fell into their field of view.
Sharon, on the other hand, was just as excited. However, the excitement did not last long and was followed by a hint of disappointment. Although Gerald was fine now, he was also cold to her.
Basically, both of them were immersed in mixed emotions at this moment.
Morgana seemed to notice. "Lilian, Sharon, did something happen between the two of you and Gerald at Mayberry?"
"Not really. Even if there was, I would say that someone got a cold attitude from Gerald, even though he was the best for her back then! ” tease Lilian.
“Only once did he pick you up, big deal! Who told you that he gave me a cold shoulder? ” Sharon pouting.
They seemed to be on the verge of starting a fight. One of the girls then came up with an idea and suggested, “Why don't we just sit there and see who Gerald first greeted when he saw us?”
“Sure, it will be a surprise for him as well. As soon as he turned his head, he would realize that we were all here. That would definitely surprise him!” Morgan laughing.
Howard was drowning in jealousy, but everyone was sitting on the sofa by the side, so he had to follow them as well.
Right at that moment, Gerald slowly walked into the real estate center ...
