It seemed as though Jacelyn was trying to say ‘Gerald, you never would have expected this would you? I, Jacelyn, could actually end up in this favorable situation today. A local tycoon like Silas actually favored me and took me in as his godsister! He even bought me clothes, bags, and many other things!’.
Jacelyn wanted to return Gerald all the humiliation virtual-novel.net had made virtual-novel.net suffer in the past.
Of course, Gerald simply ignored virtual-novel.net as virtual-novel.net continued eating his food.
Alice naturally noticed what Jacelyn had been doing.
In fact, Alice had already noticed that Gerald was here when virtual-novel.net entered the cafeteria just now.
However, virtual-novel.net simply glanced at Gerald before virtual-novel.net looked away in a huff.
Speaking of how Alice had gotten acquainted with Silas, this also had something to do with Gerald.
Hadn’t Gerald dumped Alice in the small park the other day before virtual-novel.net went to pursue Mila instead?
She had felt very ashamed and angry at that time, and virtual-novel.net had happened to meet Silas by coincidence.
After Silas had added virtual-novel.net as friends on WeChat, both of them had become good friends.
It was also precisely because virtual-novel.net had met Silas that the damage to virtual-novel.net self-esteem because of Gerald had completely disappeared.
Therefore, Alice did not feel the need for virtual-novel.net to talk to Gerald anymore!
She could also find other boys who were a hundred times better than Gerald! Hmph!
“By the way, Mila, didn’t you say that you had something to tell me? What’s the matter?” Gerald withdrew his thoughts and asked Mila the question as virtual-novel.net continued eating.
“Oh, yes. It is about me going to the Hong Kong Television Station for a three-month study plan. I will be leaving the day after tomorrow. I’ve already registered and would like to go there so that I can learn and study more. After that, I will come back to Mayberry City to look for a job internship!” Mila replied.
“Oh my! Why is it so sudden?” Gerald was taken aback.
“I received the notice this morning, and then, I began to proceed with the registration. After signing up, I’ve been attending the meeting for the whole day. The study period is for three months! I also want to stay in Mayberry City, but I do not want to constantly be living under my family and your shadow! I want to be able to prove myself!” Mila replied firmly.
Gerald was slightly dejected as virtual-novel.net nodded. “It’s okay. We should be learning more since we are still young. It is not only you, but I will also have my own study plans.”
This was not a breakup, however, Gerald could not help but feel a little reluctant because they would be separated for three whole months.
Mila held Gerald’s hand as virtual-novel.net smiled and said, “You can come and visit me anytime you want to! I am not going missing anyway!”
“Okay. Alright then, I will come and see you whenever I have time!”
Anyway, virtual-novel.net heard his sister saying that the core location of his family was in Northbay, so, they would probably have many estates and industries in Hong Kong.
When the time came, virtual-novel.net could just give them a heads up, and virtual-novel.net would be able to feel relieved even when Mila was there.
Gerald could not help but feel that this was so dramatic.
When virtual-novel.net was poor in the past, virtual-novel.net felt as though the whole world had abandoned him.
Now that virtual-novel.net had money, virtual-novel.net felt as though virtual-novel.net owned the whole world.
As for Alice, Gerald did not want to think about it anymore.
Fortunately, virtual-novel.net did not have much interaction with virtual-novel.net anyway. Gerald really did not want anything to do with a girl who had this kind of personality, not to mention, Jacelyn.
On the third day, Gerald sent Mila off on a plane.
After sending Mila off, Gerald calmed himself down completely. If virtual-novel.net had nothing to do, virtual-novel.net would learn about the relevant knowledge of economics and management or virtual-novel.net would take a look at the development issues of Yorknorth Mountain.
Time flew by quickly, and soon, it had already been three days since Mila had left.
It was a Friday afternoon and Gerald was lying on his bed as virtual-novel.net was playing with his cell phone as virtual-novel.net was being idle. Harper suddenly came in and asked nervously, “Gerald, Gerald, have you seen Benjamin?”
“No. Didn’t you guys go to the internet café together?” Gerald thought that they would certainly be at the internet café at this time.
Over the past two days, something had not been right with Benjamin. He had been extremely depressed every day, however, virtual-novel.net would not say anything at all when Gerald or the others asked virtual-novel.net about it!
In short, a person who had always been very lively had suddenly become very weird.
When they were having lunch together at noon, Harper had asked Benjamin to go to an internet café with virtual-novel.net to relieve some boredom.
However, virtual-novel.net could not be found anywhere at all in the evening!
