Chapter 194 I’ll Try

Irvin and his wife looked at each other and then turned their eyes to Ingrid.

Eddie shrugged and looked very helpless.

“Do you know Gerald?” Irvin asked.

Ingrid did not know why her parents suddenly asked this. However, she naturally would not tell her parents that Gerald was a Watchman.

She nodded. “Yes, I know him quite well.”

“What do you think of his family background compared to ours?” Irvin asked.

Stunned, Ingrid looked at her parents strangely and said, “Mom, Dad, don’t beat around the bush. If you have something to say, just say it directly.”

Irvin exhaled and said, “Well, since you said so, then I will say it directly.”

After that, he stared at Ingrid. “I heard from Eddie that you have a close relationship with Gerald. But Ingrid, you have to understand what kind of person you are getting along with. You and Gerald are not suitable for each other, so you’d better avoid contact with him in the future.”

Hearing that, Ingrid was speechless. She looked up at Eddie and turned to her parents. “Mom, Dad, you seem to be thinking too much.”

“You…” Irvin asked.

Ingrid interrupted Irvin, “I don’t have any feelings for Gerald. Even if I liked him, he might not like me. You guys are thinking too much.”

When Ingrid said this, Irvin and Alice revealed a look of disbelief. Then Alice said, “What are you talking about? Is there anyone that the Maddox family is not worthy of in this world? Honey, you’re an attractive and noble lady. You deserve the best man in the world.”

“You are always high and mighty. The poor people you despise most may not like me. Money can’t

buy love,” Ingrid said.

Irvin waved his hand. “Alright. Don’t convince us. It’s best if you don’t have feelings for him. And

you know that you will marry into the Thornton family sooner or later.”

When Ingrid heard this, she showed a hint of impatience, put her fork on the table, and said, “I don’t want to eat.”

After Gerald and Catherine finished the meal, they walked out of the restaurant. When gangsters in the restaurant saw Gerald and the others finish eating, they quickly ran to check out.

“Let’s go watch a movie,” Catherine said. “It’s still early.”

Gerald turned his head and looked at the hooligans in the restaurant with a smile. “I’m afraid I can’t. I still have something to do. I have to go home.”

Catherine’s eyes revealed a trace of disappointment. Then she nodded and said, “Alright, then be

careful.”

Gerald nodded and grinned at Catherine. “See you tomorrow.”

Catherine nodded.

After saying goodbye to Catherine, Gerald did not take a taxi. Instead, he started walking along the road in the distance. This was the downtown area.

Soon, he felt the hooligans following him.

When he walked to a relatively remote place with no one around, he stood still and looked ahead. Meanwhile, several people also came over and blocked him.

Gerald touched his nose. “Ah, a little interesting.”

In the alley, blocked by two groups of people in the front and back, he stopped and looked behind.

The few people walked to the front and looked at Gerald with faint smiles on their faces. “You’re

Gerald, right?”

Gerald looked at both sides and touched his nose. “Yes, who sent you here?”

“It doesn’t matter who sent us. We just want to teach you a lesson today. Remember this. In the future, stay away from Ms. Maddox,” the bald leader said.

Then they surrounded Gerald.

Gerald’s expression changed and then he got it. Judging from what the bald leader said, they must

be sent by Eddie.

Gerald chuckled and thought, Eddie seems to look down on me. When Ingrid and I get a little closer, he feels that it’s too much and even wants to teach me a lesson.

He’s so old. He won’t be interested in Ingrid, will he?

At this time, someone behind him said, “Man, this guy is our target. Can you give him to us?”

The bald man frowned and turned his head to look at him.

Gerald also looked over and saw a person walking out of the crowd. It was Randall.

Randall looked at the bald man and said in a calm tone, “I’ll take him away.”

Gerald was amused.

It seemed that they were not in the same group.

The bald man chuckled and looked at Randall. “Bro, we are Warren Gill’s men. Think about it twice before you take him away.”

“Warren?” Randall curled his lips. “Go back and tell him that Randall took him away. He should give me some face.”
