Ch 164

[Chapter 164]

Gerald was honestly so done with the ladies. They mustn't be led off the hook!

"It was simple. As punishment, get the ladies to have a volleyball match with us, but in bikinis!" said Gerald bluntly.

"What? It is that simple?" Crystal responded with joy.

Crystal started overthinking, "Perhaps Mr. Crawford pitied me and took the initiative to make peace? I am, after all, stunning.

Which guy wouldn't be enchanted by me?"

"Of coursey'all wouldn't be doing it here! It'll be at Rivington City's most popular street!" replied Gerald.

Crystal's mind went blank. Shocked, she let out a loud scream. How embarrassing was that!

"Hmph, y'all should thank Mr. Crawford for the punishment! Alright, it's getting dark now, and many have left. See you at noon tomorrow noon on Rivington City's most crowded street. I'll be organizing a volleyball match!" Yoel announced before giving Gerald a nudge, a gesture inviting him to board the cruise ship as well.

"Mr. Crawford, I love you! Oh my!" a few girls screamed, grabbing locks of Gerald's hair as he passed them and entered the cruise ship.

Gerald even had a few pretty ladies in bikini's holding on to his arm intimately. Tonight's VIP was indeed, Gerald, Mr. Crawford!

"Sister Elena, sister Elena!" shouted Amber while stomping her feet anxiously.

The moment Elena Larson heard her younger cousin's voice, she backed off from following Gerald into the cruise ship.

"Gerald is really Mr. Crawford from Mayberry Commercial Street! Why didn't you tell me this earlier? He's very handsome, truly handsome indeed! I was wrong, it's all my fault. Elena, you must explain this to Mr. Crawford!"

"Hey Amber, haven't I reminded you many times that you gotta be more reserved when speaking? Anyway, don't worry, it doesn't seem that Mr. Crawford will blame you. I'll tell you the details after this. Oh yes, never tell others that Gerald is actually Mr.

Crawford. Keep it to yourself. Mr. Crawford isn't willing to reveal his identity, and as long as he wants it to remain hidden, you must never spill the beans!"

"What? But sister Elena, so many people have seen Mr. Crawford today!"

Elena shook her head while pointing to the side. "See those bodyguards in black walking back and forth?"

Amber saw more than ten expressionless bodyguards in black outfits. They were dealing with all the rich heirs who were present.

The youngsters nodded were nodding in compliance with everything the bodyguards had to tell them. Clearly, no one dared to defy their orders.

"Is this the true boss?" Amber was stunned.

Afterward, the Cruise Ship Festival then began on the sea.

This was Gerald's first time boarding a cruise ship. He found it really cool, seeing the sea at night while listening to the whistling sea breeze.

The issue of Gerald's own identity turned out better than what he had imagined, so his mind was at ease. Gerald would still live his simple life as usual. At least for now, he didn't fancy Yoel's extravagant lifestyle. These were the reasons why Gerald called for Aiden to settle this matter before this.

Otherwise, it would be like insisting a freely-swimming water-only fish to come ashore and climb a tree. It would be absolutely impossible given such a short period!

During the gala, Gerald, Yoel, and Aiden almost spent the entire night having fun before finally going to sleep at dawn. It was also the same for the other youngsters from wealthy families on the cruise ship, in extremely high spirits.

The next day, Gerald followed Yoel and the rest to the sea again. The Cruise Ship Festival went on and only ended in the afternoon.

"Brother… I'll be going on a trip to Mayberry in three days. Since I'll be there, I'll look for you again!" laughed Yoel jovially on their way back from the sea.

"Business in Mayberry?"

"Are you going to join Mountain Top Villa's exhibition?" asked Aiden with a smile.

Yoel nodded, "My dad absolutely insisted that I experience it myself!"

Gerald was already lost in thought. Mountain Top Villa sounded like a nice place, considering he really wanted to buy a condominium right now. "I have not heard of Mountain Top Villa before. Is it very luxurious?" he asked.

Shocked, Yoel cleared his throat before saying, "Brother. Mountain Top Villa is so much more than just a luxurious place!"
