Gerald smiled.
The trio before him would never be able to remotely even come close to anticipating that he was the actual owner of the company.
He then looked toward Ava before saying, âHigh school friends, huh? Why are you doing all this to me?
Since when have you become this way, Ava?â
âDonât even think about playing the friendship card, you b*stard! After laying your dirty hands on me, donât even dream that Iâll let you off easily! Since youâre talking about friendship now, why didnât you save a ticket for me earlier this afternoon then?â
âThe most hilarious thing is that you lack even the most basic of common sense! Did you really think that Iâd ever fall for or even make out with you? Keep fantasizing about it, thatâs all youâll ever get!â
Since they werenât filming anymore, Ava found no further reason to filter her words.
She knew Gerald well. All Gerald was, was a poor and powerless pauper. Knowing the difference in power between them allowed Ava to execute her plan without the slightest hesitation. She wasnât even remotely afraid, to be completely honest.
âOh, I see how it is now. It seems that Iâve really thought too much!â replied Gerald with a chuckle.
âI donât really want to believe this, honestly. I truly trusted that you wanted to treat me to dinner because of our past friendship. If you had just been sincere, I would definitely have been willing to help you in the future should you get into any trouble!â replied Gerald.
Though Gerald had anticipated that Ava had some ploy when she called him out for dinner, he had truly felt touched while they reminisced about their old days back at the restaurant. That was the reason why he had decided to accompany her back home in the first place.
Before they entered Avaâs house, Gerald had already made up his mind that he would continue to help her out, even if they werenât as close to each other as they were before.
After all this had happened however, he was now completely disappointed in her.
âYou? Help me? Who do you even think you are? Look, weâre letting you off easy. Think about it, you just have to sign these papers and the company will be yours!â
âOh Iâll sign them, but youâll just have to wait for tomorrow. My identification card isnât with me now and I canât remember my identification number!â said Gerald as he thought of that excuse on the spot.
âThe hell? You donât even remember your own identification number?â cursed Stuart.
However, he wasnât too worried since they still had the recordings now. Gerald couldnât run from them and Stuart knew it.
Tomorrow it was then.
âSo be it. Youâll sign these papers the moment you arrive at the office tomorrow. And donât you dare tell anyone about this or Iâll call the police immediately! Youâll definitely be charged for attempted r*pe if the recording gets out!â said Stuart.
âTomorrow it is!â replied Gerald.
He was then let off. Once Gerald left the building, he immediately contacted Zack and told him everything that had happened.
He was feeling very upset since despite being disappointed in her, he still felt sorry for Ava.
He had initially gone undercover to try gathering information from the culprits he found. To think that his ex-classmate would be this involved with the matter.
When the next day came, Gerald entered the office and was just about to take a seat when both Stuart and Ava walked up to him.
âGerald, please come to my office now!â said Stuart as he looked at Gerald. He also motioned for Gerald to remember to bring along his identification card.
âSure thing!â replied Gerald as he followed both of them. Nathaniel was already waiting in Stuartâs office for them.
The office doubled as a printing room, and not many people usually went there.
âAlright, sign this quickly. We still have other formalities to go through. Hurry up!â said Stuart as he took the contract from the night before out.
However, Gerald simply sat there with his legs crossed. He had clearly no intention of signing it.
âWhat the hell are you waiting for? Hurry up and sign it already!â warned Stuart with a slightly raised voice.
Geraldâs response was to simply look at his watch before saying, âJust wait for a little while more. Iâll sign it when everyone else has arrived. Thatâll save you the time to look for the right person to process your formalities!â
âHuh? What do you mean by that?â
