Chapter 25 Doreen Wants to See Gerald

Vivian was very beautiful. Usually, she was very proud in front of ordinary people because of her appearance.

However, she was born into an ordinary family. Although Vivian wanted to hook up with some man born with a silver spoon, she was a little conservative deep inside.

Vivian looked down on these ordinary men, and yet she had not met a man born with a silver spoon.

Vivian was just a very ordinary office worker.

In Los Angeles, Glory World was not a top company in scale. It was a relatively large company with assets of over 16 million dollars, which surpassed many other companies.

And the employees‘ treatment at Glory World was quite good.

Since Gerald became the owner of Glory World, Vivian had been worried that she would be fired. However, Gerald had never mentioned it these days.

Gerald wanted to be tolerant of her at first. As long as Vivian worked well, it did not matter to Gerald. After all, Gerald did not often come to the office.

However, Gerald was clear on how Mary and Mike came to the company. It must be Vivian who brought them in.

Moreover, this time, the reason why Mary came to make a fuss was very likely that their entire family had discussed it yesterday.

Gerald had never seen such shameless people like the Bennett family.

Therefore, he wanted to completely cut ties with this family. Then Vivian did not need to be kept in the company.

As she heard Gerald’s words, Vivian’s pretty face immediately paled. If she lost this job, it would be quite difficult for her to find another job that was on par with this one.

Vivian gritted her teeth and then sneered, “Gerald, don’t think that you’re great just because you have a bit of money. Who cares about this job? Adriel will introduce me to a job ten times better than this one here.”

Gerald didn’t answer her. He turned and walked out of the office. Mary was still yelling in the corridor.

“Gerald, you are an ingrate. Everyone, look at your big boss. He is an ingrate.

“He divorced my daughter without giving her a penny, and we saved his life.

“When he got rich, he went bad…”

Mary was dragged by the security guards, but she kept shouting.

Mary and Mike were dragged downstairs directly. Many passers–by stopped to look on.

Trevon was also in the crowd. He couldn’t stand it anymore, so he stood out and scolded, “Aren’t you ashamed to say that Gerald is an ingrate? It’s true that your husband saved Gerald and married your daughter to him. Previously, Gerald lost his memory because of the injury, and he didn’t even remember the password to his bank card. However, to support you and your daughter, Gerald has spent 365 days a year without rest working at the construction site over the past three years.

“And you? Your daughter cheated on Gerald in marriage. She hooked up with a rich man and immediately dumped Gerald. The house that Gerald worked hard to buy was under your daughter’s name, and you drove him out without

mercy.” Trevon raised his voice and continued to shout, “He doesn’t even have a penny on him.

“Now he has got his memories back. He remembers that he used to be very rich. When you knew he bought this

company, you came to ask for money. How shameless you are!” Trevon glared at Mary.

The security guard subconsciously stopped in his tracks.

When the onlookers heard this, they all frowned.

“What a family!”

“She seems to be Vivian’s aunt. I saw Vivian bringing them in previously.”

“Vivian? The one from the Human Resources Department? She is not a good person either. With her a little good–looking, she is ambiguous with many men in the office. Perhaps, none of this family is a good person.”

Gerald happened to come down from upstairs with Vivian behind him in hatred. When Vivian heard this, her expression changed slightly.

When Mary heard Trevon say this, her face turned gloomy. She glared at Trevon and cursed, “Who are you? What do you know about our family? Why are you here and talking nonsense?”

“I just can’t stand it. You are really shameless!” Trevon squinted at Mary.

Mary’s face became gloomier. Then she began to roar again.

“Drag her out!” Gerald walked down and said calmly.

The security guards dragged Mary and Mike out. As for what Mary had roared, Gerald didn’t care. Anyway, he wouldn’t come to the office often. He did not take it seriously whatever these people talked about him. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

Gerald looked at the onlookers around and said with a frown, “All disperse. Don’t look anymore.”

After that, he looked at Vivian and said, “You’ve got half an hour to pack your stuff and then leave. By the way, go back and pass my words to your entire family…”

Speaking of this, Gerald’s tone suddenly became cold. “I’ve been out of patience. Don’t mess with me in the future.

Otherwise… I will take back that house, too.”

Vivian gritted her teeth, turned around, and walked toward the Human Resources Department.

It was not until then that Trevon ran over and said, “What bloody bad luck for you to meet this family!”

Gerald smiled at him and said, “Why did you come to the office? Didn’t Liam just take the operation?”

“I called my sister to come over from the countryside. I am well paid. I’ll feel uneasy if I don’t come to work,” Trevon

said.

Gerald pondered for a moment.

In fact, he wanted to bring Trevon back to the Night Watch. Trevon’s morals and characters were both excellent.

The only problem was that Trevon was a little old.

“Beep, beep, beep…‘

Just then, Gerald’s phone rang. He looked at Trevon and said, “Okay, you go ahead. I have to take this.”

“Alright. After Liam is discharged from the hospital, I’ll treat you to dinner. Gerald, I owe you a big favor. It’s not even enough to repay with my life,” Trevon said seriously.

“Hurry up and get out of here. Stop being pretentious,” Gerald cursed.

Trevon grinned, turned around, and ran toward the Human Resources Department.

After Trevon left, Gerald picked up the phone and found that it was Audrey.

Yesterday, Audrey did not say anything when Henley and the others drove Gerald away. It was clear that she felt fear when hearing the word “rapist” from Henley.

Gerald did not expect that Audrey would make a call to him. Gerald frowned and picked up the phone. “Hello!”

“I’m sorry for leaving you alone in the airport yesterday,” Audrey apologized to Gerald.

“It’s fine.” Gerald did not take it personally.

“You come to me. Doreen and I are at White Elephant Tower. Doreen wants to see you,” Audrey said.

Gerald frowned.

Gerald did not expect that Doreen would like to see him. He nodded and said, “Okay, I’ll come to you.”

Gerald left the office, took a taxi, and rushed to White Elephant Tower.

White Elephant Tower was a famous tourist resort in Los Angeles. It was located at the highest place in Los Angeles, and the scenery was breathtaking. Many tourists would choose to stay in the hotels there.

Of course, the hotel price was a little high.

And this area was developed relatively commercially. Soon, Gerald arrived at a restaurant near White Elephant Tower. Then he called Audrey and confirmed the private room they were in. After that, he walked into the restaurant.

Gerald found the private room and slowly pushed open the door.

The aroma of coffee spread in the room. Audrey and Doreen were sitting opposite each other. Seeing Gerald come over, Audrey said with a smile, “Come on in. You are lucky today. Doreen is making cappuccino in person, and you can taste

it.”

Doreen made the milk foam, filled it in the coffee cup, and then sprinkled a bit of chocolate powder on top of the milk foam. Every movement was very elegant.

Gerald entered the room. Doreen did not look at him but just said to Audrey, “Audrey, can you leave Gerald and me

alone for a while?”

Audrey nodded. “Sure. I will wait for you outside.”

With that, Audrey looked curiously at Gerald and walked out of the private room.

After Audrey left, Doreen glanced at the seat opposite her and said, “Take a seat.”

Gerald nodded and sat down opposite Doreen. Doreen placed the cup of cappuccino on the coffee table in front of Gerald. Without a word, Gerald picked up the coffee cup, had it in one gulp, and then smacked his lips.

Seeing Gerald’s behavior, Doreen frowned. Then, she shook her head and said, “You have changed a lot. You liked

coffee and knew how to taste it before.”

Gerald disdained it in his mind.

In the past, he liked coffee because Doreen liked it, so he secretly learned about it.

But in the world of Night Watch, there was no time to slowly taste coffee for him.

“It’s been nine years. It’s normal to have some changes,” Gerald smiled.

Doreen smoothed the hair around her ear and raised her head. Then she looked at Gerald for the first time and said,

“Henley and I are getting married.”

“I know.” Gerald nodded. “Henley showed off to me yesterday.”

“But I don’t love him,” Doreen said again.
