Chapter 209 Two Calls
The next day was the weekend. Gerald did not need to go to the company. However, it would be difficult for Dark Phantom and Blood Lotus to enter the Maddox family and kidnap Ingrid if Ingrid
didn’t come out.
After all, the Maddox family was also powerful, with many Watchmen guarding them.
Therefore, Gerald could have a peaceful rest on the weekend.
Gerald slept until around ten o’clock in the morning before he was kicked off the sofa by Valery.
“What are you doing?” Gerald got up from the ground and said.
“It’s already ten o’clock! And you’re still sleeping. Gerald, I find that you’ve been slacking off
lately,” Valery snorted and said. “You weren’t like this when you were a Watchman.”
“Hey, you don’t even know how miserable I was in the past three years,” Gerald said. “I had to get up early and go to bed late almost every day. I worked hard on construction sites for those three years. When I came home, I had to cook. So I have to take the time to make up for it now.”
“Don’t talk nonsense. Go away. We want to watch TV,” Valery said.
Gerald touched his nose. He ran to wash up, then frowned and asked, “What are your arrangements
today?”
“No arrangements,” Valery said indifferently. “I used the Refreshing Treatment yesterday and needed to spend some time recuperating. I’ve already told Troy that I won’t be on night duty for
now.”
Gerald nodded and said, “By the way, how long will Ingrid’s matter last?”
“Right now, we’re still tracking Saul’s whereabouts. If it goes well, this thing can basically be over.
It’s just that the problem with Dax is a little tricky right now,” Valery said.
Gerald sighed and said, “Alright then. You guys watch TV. I’ll go out.”
“Are you going to meet a girl?” Macy said with a smile.
“Macy, don’t talk nonsense. You all know that Dr. Manning is the only woman in my heart,” Gerald
hurriedly said.
Valery threw a pillow at Gerald and snorted, “Get lost!“.
Gerald smiled bitterly. He rubbed his nose and walked out of the door.
After walking out of the door, he took out his phone and called Leandro.
The call was quickly picked up. Leandro asked happily, “What’s wrong? Do you want to know about
the situation in Sacramento? Let me tell you, the Kenneth family is about to go bankrupt. Their
assets have been greatly reduced, and many people are grabbing their market. The Zumthor family couldn’t withstand it and went bankrupt a few days ago. Henley and his mother have already fled
abroad.”
Gerald said, “It’s not that. I called you because I have something to tell you. The movie you invested in before, which is Adriana’s movie.”
“I know. I followed your arrangements and asked them to arrange a second female lead for her. What’s wrong? Has she slept with you? Do you want her to be the female lead?” Leandro asked.
“Fuck off!” Gerald didn’t know what to say. “No, there is a deputy director called Zane Dobson in their crew. This guy wanted to rape Adriana yesterday. You should deal with him properly.”
“He actually dared to touch your woman. I will make him suffer,” Leandro sneered and said. “Don’t worry. Just leave it to me.”
After hanging up the phone, Gerald called Kerr. Soon, the phone was connected. On the other side of the line, Kerr picked up the phone and said, “Gerald, you actually call me!”
On the other side of the line, it was a little noisy.
“Boy, you are bold,” Gerald said. “Your grandfather just recovered yesterday, and you’re out
having fun today.”
Kerr quickly said, “No, I am discussing business with my friend. I am planning to invest in a
movie!”
It would be strange if Gerald believed him. Gerald curled his lips and said, “Do you still remember
Cassidy Birrell?”
“Yes,” Kerr said. “What’s wrong?”
