[Chapter 34]
When Gerald stepped into the room, he realized that there were many people inside.
The atmosphere was pretty lively. There were about a hundred women and men of all ages in the room, and the waiter and waitresses shuttled back and forth while the drinks were all self-service.
If Gerald did not guess wrongly, then these people should be the bosses and owners of the shops and establishments on Mayberry Commercial Street.
Gerald glanced around but he could not find Zack.
He took out his cell phone as he tried to call Zack, only to realize that his cell phone had already died a long time ago.
Ugh!
Gerald had been using his cell phone last night and had forgotten to charge it!
Forget it! Gerald decided to just wait for Zack to come over and greet him when he arrived at the room later.
After walking around the large room for a short while, Gerald could only smile helplessly to himself before he found a quiet corner to sit down by himself.
After that, he decided to have some fruits and drinks first.
The waiter and waitresses were so busy and they did not notice even Gerald. As Gerald was drinking and eating the refreshments that were served, he was noticed by a group of rich second generation young ladies from Mayberry Commercial Street.
"Look at that guy. It has already been a while since he'd been eating and drinking while sitting in that corner. Do any of you know him? Is he really from Mayberry Commercial Street?"
"I definitely have not seen him before!"
The girls frowned as they shook their heads.
"I don't think he is someone from Mayberry Commercial Street. How can that be possible? Just look at the way he's dressed! I think he's just someone who snuck in to enjoy the food and drinks here for free!"
"You think that he came in here to steal food? No way! Could there possibly be such a shameless person?"
"Why not? I do think he's really that shameless! Look at him. He's dressed so shabbily and there must be a reason why he chose to sit in that quiet corner all by himself."
"That makes sense!"
The sons and daughters of several owners of the businesses on Mayberry Commercial Street started discussing and talking about Gerald.
"The boss of Mayberry Commercial Street, Gerald Crawford, will be coming here today. I don't want someone like that shabbily-dressed man to ruin the atmosphere!"
"What would Mr. Crawford think of our parents' ability to do things? How can someone like him be allowed to enter this venue?"
A young and charismatic man dressed in white sneered as he looked at Gerald.
"Oh, look! Elena is here!"
At this time, one of the girls exclaimed as she pointed at the entrance.
"Elena, come here!"
The girl waved at Elena Larson.
As soon as Elena entered the room, the eyes of the young boys brightened up immediately.
Elena was wearing a short dress and her long hair was draping over her shoulders. Her beautiful face was perfect and she really looked like a goddess compared to all the other girls present in the room.
When Elena walked towards her friends, some of the older guests could not help but glance at her long, fair legs with perverted expressions on their faces.
At this time, the young boys were also staring at Elena.
"Elena! Why are you only here now? Didn't we agree to come here together?"
"Elena, why do you look so unhappy? Did something happen?" the young man dressed in white suddenly asked, with a face full of concern.
"Ugh. Don't mention it anymore. When I was downstairs, I ran into a wretched scumbag! First, he touched me in an inappropriate place. After that, he was peeking at me as we took the elevator up together! That's why I had to stop by the washroom to fix my clothes!" Elena complained as she exhaled with a pale expression on her face.
She was quite fluent and good at talking.
The first reason why she had hurried out of the elevator earlier was because she did not want to stay in the same elevator with that perverted scumbag.
Secondly, she felt as though her underwear had moved when she slammed into the turnstile earlier. Therefore, she went to the bathroom to fix her underwear and her clothing.
She was very annoyed!
"Damn it! How can something like this happen?"
The boy dressed in white and the other brothers and sisters were all very furious at this time. How could anyone touch Elena inappropriately? She was their goddess and the boys here did not even dare to touch her hand!
"Alright, Elena. Wait for us to get rid of this sneaky little thief first. After that, we will head to the surveillance control room and look for that man that you were talking about!"
The young man dressed in white glanced at Gerald, who was enjoying his fruits and vegetable salad at this time.
"Yes, we should get rid of that thief first!" echoed all the girls at this time…
