Chapter 192 The Male Friend
Eddie was in a bad mood. He took out his phone and dialed a number.
Someone answered the phone quickly. “Hello. What’s wrong?”
Eddie replied, “Hello, Mr. Maddox. When Ingrid was in Sacramento, she met a man called Gerald. At that time, they had a good relationship. I privately warned him to stop interacting with Ingrid. However, I did not expect Gerald to come to Washington and represent Wisdom Group. They get the chance to meet each other again.”
“Representing Wisdom Group?” Irvin frowned. “What’s Gerald’s background?”
“When I was in Sacramento, I checked his information. Gerald used to be a member of the Kenneth family. He was imprisoned for nine years because of something, and it seemed that he was rescued by Leandro at last. When Leandro and the Kenneth Family were in a game, Gerald’s matter became the last thing to bring down the Kenneth family. Now the Kenneth family is greatly hurt, and Holden and Cole seem to be in prison,” Eddie said honestly. “I don’t think Gerald is a big shot, but he should have a good relationship with Leandro. The Universe Group and Wisdom Group are inextricably linked. I think Gerald knew that Wisdom Group was going to cooperate with us. Thus, he asked Leandro to let him be the representative.
“Should we stop cooperation with Wisdom Group? It seems that Ingrid has a good impression of
Gerald,” Eddie said.
Irvin said calmly, “No. This time, most of the companies that Ingrid’s studio cooperates with are the industries under the control of Night Watch. They sent one guy to protect Ingrid. To hide that guy’s identity, they have not said which company he belongs to. What if Gerald is that guy?”
Eddie said peacefully, “It’s impossible. Unless the person sent by Night Watch is above the super level, I should be able to feel his existence.”
“Do you think Night Watch will send people of ‘the super level‘ to protect Ingrid?” Eddie frowned.
There was a long silence before Irvin said, “In short, it is better not to stop cooperation. Wisdom Group belongs to Night Watch. We need the help of Night Watch this time, but… if there is a chance, you can make some difficulties for Gerald.”
“Got it,” Eddie answered, let out a breath, and sneered.
After hanging up the phone, Eddie dialed another phone number and said, “Hi, Warren. Call a few people over.”
On the other end of the line, Warren said happily, “Do you mean people of the underground world?”
Eddie said, “No. I will send you the details on Line later.”
“Okay, Mr. Audley,” Warren said with an ingratiating smile.
Gerald did not know about all this. He sat in Wang Ingrid’s office and talked to Ingrid.
“Gerald, you are so polite. You said before that you would call me after you came to Washington. I just called Daphne. Daphne said that you have been in Washington for almost a week,” Ingrid said with complaint.
Gerald touched his nose and said, “I have been a little busy recently. You may feel surprised now, right?”
“Bah. You’re so glib,” Ingrid said. “Gerald, do you think that I’m qualified to be a Watchman? I have now reached the intermediate level.”
Gerald nodded and said, “Well, based on your strength alone, you have already carried out missions. It’s just that the real war of Night Watch is different from what you think. Moreover, you don’t know how to use weapons. You have to learn the fighting mode of Night Watch again.”
“Really?” Ingrid was extremely excited.
Gerald said, “Night Watch is not as good as you think. Just stay at home and enjoy the peace. It’s so
precious.”
“I want to be a heroine. You don’t understand it.” Ingrid curled her lips and shook her head.
Then Ingrid began to ask about Night Watch.
They stayed here until Ingrid got off work in the afternoon. They also had lunch here together.
After work, Ingrid wanted to have dinner with Gerald, but Eddie called her. Gerald, on the other hand, was going to eat with Catherine.
After Ingrid and Eddie left, Gerald looked at Catherine and asked, “Where are we going to eat?”
“I booked a restaurant. By the way, I have two friends who will come over. You don’t mind it, do you? Since I rarely treat you, I just want to take them with me,” Catherine said.
Catherine was quite frugal usually. Her family was poor.
Gerald nodded. “It’s alright.”
They got into the car and drove towards the restaurant. In the car, Catherine turned to look at -Gerald and asked, “Gerald, are you familiar with Ingrid?”
“Ingrid is younger than you. She’s still studying at university. It’s strange for you to call her Ms. Maddox,” Gerald smiled. “But we do know each other. I was in Sacramento before, and she studied
