[Chapter 24]
Gerald wanted to withdraw his money as soon as possible so he could leave the bank immediately. Therefore, he decided to withdraw thirty thousand dollars immediately.
He quickly gave his instructions to the female banker behind the counter.
The female banker was doubtful. However, she entered the figure into the computer and subsequently, her computer directly displayed that the withdrawal was successful!
The female banker's eyes widened in shock immediately.
Thirty thousand dollars!
Oh my god. This student was really rich!
"Sir, your withdrawal is successful!"
After that, the female banker straightened her hair before she stood up and expressed her respect for Gerald.
After that, she picked up the bundle of cash before she placed it onto the money counter.
Buzz buzz…
The machine sounded immediately.
It was all money!
The students who were queueing up in the bank to withdraw money froze in place.
The boys and girls behind Gerald gasped and at this time, people could even fit two eggs into their mouths!
The two people behind him had been ridiculing him earlier because they thought he did not have enough money in his bank account!
However, it seemed as though he had more than enough money!
All the girls in the bank cast a strange look at Gerald at this time.
They seemed to be saying, 'Handsome guy, please look at me! Please take a look at me!'
Gerald rubbed his nose because he felt a little embarrassed.
After that, he realized that there was no way he could carry so much money with him and he could not possibly carry all that money in his hand.
He looked around and he caught a glimpse of the black garbage bag in the trash can in front of the counter. It had just been replaced so it was still brand new.
Gerald took the black garbage bag before he placed it on the counter.
"You…you want to use this?"
The female banker was utterly surprised.
Was everyone who was wealthy so peculiar?
"Yes!"
Gerald did not say much. Instead, he simply took the stack of cash and placed it into his black garbage bag before he took his identification card from the female banker and walked out of the bank.
"Just look at that! He's rich and you were just ridiculing and making fun of him earlier! Are you even half as rich as he is?"
As soon as Gerald left the bank, everyone began whispering amongst themselves.
At this time, the girl who was in the boy's arms gave him a look of disgust as she punched him in his chest.
The boy simply glared at Gerald's back as he replied angrily, "Well, damn it! Why would a wealthy person dress like that?"
Even though Gerald did not want to be late for class, he was already late because of the delay.
"Report!"
Gerald stood at the classroom door.
Cassandra McGregor, the young and beautiful female class representative, glared at Gerald.
"Hahaha. I thought that you'd be too scared to come for class since we'd be paying our tuition fee today!"
After that, Cassandra glanced at the black garbage bag in Gerald's hand before she said, "Why? Did you go out to pick up garbage because you don't have enough money to pay your tuition fee?"
"Hahaha…"
As soon as Cassandra said this, everyone in the classroom burst out in laughter.
Gerald did not say anything.
This was because he knew that his class representative had always been very biased towards the rich and she treated the poorer students very differently.
What else could he say?
Therefore, the only people that Cassandra treated very well in class were the wealthy ones such as Danny and Yuri.
They would even go out and have fun together after classes.
Danny, who usually skipped classes and missed out on his exams, could still obtain a high credit score.
He did not even have to apply for time off at all.
However, if Gerald missed a single class without applying for leave, Cassandra would threaten to expel him immediately! Even though it might seem to be an exaggeration, it was nothing but the truth!
"So, I guess you're going to have to rely on the subsidy to pay your tuition fee for this semester, am I right? I didn't see Whitney giving any reports about this matter. Anyway, Gerald, let me warn you that the deadline for the tuition fee payment is the end of the month! If you do not pay your tuition fee on time, then I'll expel you and kick you out of this university without any hesitation at all!"
Cassandra glared coldly at Gerald before she continued, "Alright, take your trash with you and go back to your seat now! How embarrassing!"
Cassandra knew all about Gerald's situation.
However, Gerald was not mad at all.
"Hmph!"
Danny, Blondie and the rest of the boys were laughing at this time.
Gerald had an indifferent expression on his face as he said, "Class representative, who said that I am going to delay payment until the end of the month? I'm here to pay my tuition fee today."
"What? What? You're going to pay your tuition fee today?"
Cassandra was very surprised.
At this time, Xavia, who was sitting in the middle of the classroom, gave Gerald a cold look.
"Gerald, please don't do the same thing as you did previously! You paid your tuition fee with one and five dollar notes and I had to count each and every note for a very long time with the help of your classmates!"
Cassandra had a worried expression on her face. During the last semester, Gerald gave everyone a shock when he paid his tuition fee.
Since he did not manage to get the subsidy from the university last semester, Gerald had to pool together all the money that he had earned from his part-time jobs to pay for his tuition fee. At that time, it caused a huge sensation in the university.
Was there really such a poor student in the university?
Cassandra was afraid there would be a repetition of the same scene last year and she would be embarrassed all over again!
"Oh, class representative, I think we'll have to work overnight again! I feel sorry for my right hand. I thought I'd be able to use it to eat and play games instead!"
Danny, Blondie and the rest of the boys pretended that their hands were hurting and they walked to the front of the class at this time to help the class representative to count the money that Gerald was going to use to pay his tuition fee.
In fact, they were trying to insult and humiliate Gerald.
The expression on Xavia's face changed immediately because she felt very ashamed that she was Gerald's ex-girlfriend!
"Hahaha. Alright then. If you want to count the money so badly, then count it slowly and let me know once you're done counting!"
There was a trace of anger on Gerald's face at this time.
He dropped the garbage bag in front of the classroom.
Wow!
At this time, the garbage bag spilled open and the notes scattered all over the front of the classroom…
