Slumdog Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 118

Chapter 118 Black Gold Membership Card

In fact, Gerald had no intention of responding to Holden’s requests at all.

Holden wanted him to drop his investigation.

Why should he?

Holden threatened him. However, Gerald had been threatened by those big families several times, and he took none of them seriously. The assets Gerald now owned worldwide were no less than that of the Kenneth family

What was more, Gerald had Night Watch as his backup.

As for the second thing Holden mentioned, it was essentially his pleading for Mason’s help, since the competition between Universe Group and the Kenneth family had become too much for the Kenneth family. Yet Holden made it sound like he was doing Mason a favor.

And all Gerald and Mason got was the right to become part of the Kenneth family again.

How ridiculous!

Someone set Gerald up nine years ago, which was the reason why Gerald got locked up. If he had.

not joined Night Watch, he would have been imprisoned forever.

Mason was kicked out of the family. What was more, when he was trying to find a job in

Sacramento after that, the Kenneth family interfered. They knew how capable Mason was, and

they were worried that Mason would start his own business and affect them.

Those were not the best years for Mason. He was only doing better until Gerald owned Universe

Group.

Therefore, Gerald was not interested in being part of the Kenneth family again at all. Quite

contrarily, Gerald hated the Kenneth family’s guts.

He didn’t bother to talk to those from the Kenneth family anymore, since any words would be

unnecessary Therefore, he asked Mason to leave with him.

Mason was slightly stunned. Yet he knew what Gerald was thinking judging from Gerald’s words. Though he was worried, he preferred to let Gerald make the decision. After all, Gerald wanted to clear his name, and that was what Mason wanted as well.

“What’s that supposed to mean?” Cole slapped the table abruptly. Then he said, “Gerald,

remember, we are in Sacramento!”

Gerald raised his head, looked at Cole, and then looked at Holden and Stephen next to them. He

said indifferently, “You don’t want me to look into it. Are you feeling guilty about something?”

“Guilty?” Holden smiled and said. “There is nothing to be guilty about. The matter had already happened, and you were sentenced. There’s nothing you can do to undo it. We just figure that it has been nine years, and you’ve been released. The Cousy family wants you to drop it as well for Bree’s sake. Of course, you may choose to continue. However, you should bear the consequences

in mind.”

Gerald chuckled.

He thought, consequences? I’ve heard threats like this all my life.

I don’t even bother to talk back. Anyway, whatever you people from the Kenneth family are

planning, just come at me. I won’t show mercy.

I don’t want to waste my time on you. I’m not here to negotiate with you. The only reason I’m here

is that I’m worried about Dad. I have to bring him back.

“Dad, let’s go,” Gerald said with a smile.

Mason nodded and stood up.

Cole sneered, “Gerald, we’ve already ordered the food for you. The bottle of wine here costs 50

thousand dollars. Along with those dishes, the meal today will be roughly 64 thousand dollars.

Since you don’t appreciate our good intentions, pay the bill for you and your father before you go!”

Cole waved his hand and said, “Waitress!”

A beautiful waitress who served them specifically at the door came in and asked, “What can I do for you?”

“We go Dutch for this meal. Those two people here are leaving. Do the math and charge them,” Cole said calmly.

Mason turned to look at them.

64 thousand dollars was nothing to Cole and the others. Cole only did this, because he wanted to upset Mason and Gerald.

Mason frowned.

Cole sneered, “Mason, don’t tell me you don’t even have 16 thousand dollars.”

The waitress looked embarrassed, but she still looked at Gerald and Mason and said, “It will be 70 thousand dollars in total. Since Mr. Holden is a Platinum member here, you can get a 30% discount in total.”
