[Chapter 89]
"Are you crazy? How could the entire Mayberry Commercial Street be yours? Why don't you go to heaven, then?"
The girls were looking at Gerald as if they were looking at a fool. As for Bale, he was laughing so hard due to Gerald's remarks. Mayberry Commercial Street?
This guy said that it belonged to his family. Gerald smiled bitterly. Right at that moment, his cell phone rang. The call was from Zack.
"Mr. Gerald, have you reached yet?"
"Yes, Zack. I'm in the front hall," Gerald said.
"Ah! Okay, okay. Mr. Harrison and Mr. Henderson from the Bureau of Education are with me. We are coming to meet you there right away! They have long wanted to see you after hearing that you are going to invest in some public welfare projects as well as commercial projects."
"Uh… alright!"
Gerald had not expected the directors to come so soon, and he hung up the phone after he was done talking.
On the other hand, Mr. Bale and the others were looking at Gerald in surprise.
"This loser is acting as though he's rich. Oh, my gosh! He even called Mr. Zack intimately. People who don't know the truth may think that he is indeed close to Mr. Zack!" The girls despised him.
"Gerald, I didn't expect you to become like this. To be honest, I am very happy that you have become like this. Look at what's become of you after leaving me! Haha!"
Meanwhile, Xavia had a different kind of sick pleasure. She liked seeing Gerald being humiliated and ridiculed. The more miserable Gerald was, the more excited Xavia felt.
In this case, it showed that she did make the right decision to leave Gerald.
Furthermore, he should be getting worse and worse after being dumped by her!
Just as Xavia was about to call a few security guards in to drive Gerald out and was ready to record the scene, a girl standing beside her exclaimed,
"Xavia, Mr. Bale, look! Why are there so many people rushing over here?! It seems to be Mr. Zack, right?"
"Yeah! It's not just Mr. Zack, but also Mr. Harrison and Mr. Henderson. They are all people with big names in Mayberry City. Why are they in such a hurry to come to the front hall? Shit, isn't that my dad in the back? Why is he running toward here too?!"
Bale's face suddenly turned pale.
His family ran an international trade business. In the early days, they had started their family business with the investment of Mayberry International Inc. Now, they had become one of the most famous and rich families in Mayberry City, and their status was noble.
Although his father was very respectful to Zack, he had never had to run toward him. Furthermore, Mr. Zack, who was the tycoon of the commercial street, was running in front of them all.
"What's the matter?!" Bale was shocked.
Xavia was also startled to see them running to the front hall. They all hurriedly stepped aside in confusion, including the girls. Only Gerald stood still in the middle of the lobby.
"Gerald, are you looking for trouble?! Mr. Zack is coming, you should get out of here soon! There must be famous people coming too, you should get out now!" Xavia shouted in a hurry.
Still, Gerald did not budge. Besides, it was too late to move now. The group of people had already appeared in the hall.
"Good day, Mr. Zack…"
Xavia and other girls quickly bent over with a dark face, thinking that they would be scolded. However, they were ignored by Mr. Zack and the others. Zack walked directly to Gerald and smiled respectfully.
"Sorry to keep you waiting, Mr. Gerald. Let me introduce you…"
Mr. Gerald.
The atmosphere instantly tensed, especially Xavia, whose face was frozen.
"Mr. Zack! How did you address him just now? Mr. Gerald?!"
Xavia suffered a critical hit as if she had been struck by the thunder! The famous Zack Lyle was being so respectful to Gerald. Was it possible that what Gerald had said just now was true? He wasn't faking his identity?
Oh gosh!
As for the other girls, their mouths were opened wide as if they could swallow an egg whole at this moment, not to mention Bale who was swallowing nervously at the side.
"Yes, he is the big boss behind all the businesses of Mayberry Commercial Street, Mr. Gerald. Why are you still here? Who let you speak? Where is Jane?"
Zack questioned them when he saw his waiters being so impolite. He immediately called out to Jane who was behind him.
After all, these people had all been invited by Jane.
