Chapter 443 Are You Playing Hard to Get?
As the plane took off, Gerald leaned against the chair to rest.
He glanced at Joselyn next to him. She was wearing a blindfold and leaning against the sofa as if she was really sleeping.
Obviously, she was simply afraid of bothering others, so she did not want Gerald to help her change
the seat.
Gerald did not care too much. It was just that he happened to be able to help her. He leaned against the chair, ready to take a nap.
At this moment, Joselyn suddenly said in a soft voice, “Thank you.”
“That’s OK,” Gerald replied immediately.
Then, they fell silent. The plane began to fly steadily. It took about two hours to fly from
Sacramento to Atlanta.
When the plane stabilized, Carson, who was next to Gerald, sneered and said, “Man, do you dare to go with me when you get off the plane?”
Gerald opened his eyes and looked at him with a half–smile. “Why should I go with you? You want to send someone to deal with me, and you want me to cooperate with you to go to a place where no one is around? What’s wrong with you?”
Carson sneered and said, “If you are a coward, then be a coward. Cut the crap.”
“Well, you are not a coward, then why don’t you fight with me at the airport?” Gerald curled his lips and said, “Whoever doesn’t fight at the airport is a loser.”
Carson’s face went ugly green. Of course, he wanted to find someone to beat Gerald up, but he dared not to do it in public. He would like to do it privately. In that case, he only needed to pay some money at most to solve it. But if he did it in public, and someone took a photo and posted it on the Internet, he would not be able to bear the consequences.
When he heard what Gerald said, he was so angry that his face was about to twist.
Carson stared at Gerald, but Gerald did not care at all. He leaned against the chair and closed his eyes slowly.
Carson was a little restless. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He looked gloomy. After a while, he seemed to have made up his mind. He sneered, “I’ll follow you once you get off the plane. You can’t always stay in the crowd!”
Time passed unknowingly. After an unknown period of time, Gerald suddenly heard a soft and pleasant voice, “Are you playing hard to get with me?”
Gerald was stunned. He turned to look to the side and found that Joselyn had taken off her blindfold and was looking at him with her big beautiful eyes.
“What do you mean by playing hard to get?” Gerald asked in surprise.
“Don’t you want my Line account, do you?” Joselyn said lightly.
“When did I say that?” Gerald was stunned.
He really did not want Joselyn’s Line account. He would probably stay in Atlanta for only one day. In the future, there would not be too many interactions between them. After resolving the matter between Ingrid and Daphne, he would leave for Europe.
As for Joselyn, he just felt that the experience of having a beauty next to him on the plane would be good. As for the rest, he had no idea at all.
“Didn’t you just say that you fell in love with me at first sight?” Joselyn asked.
“That was to help you solve the trouble,” Gerald replied calmly.
Joselyn was stunned!
Indeed, with her looks, she had met too many men who asked for her Line account on their first meeting. Now what Gerald had just said made her a bit embarrassed. Her face was red and her eyes
were flashing.
However, she managed to make her tone sound as calm as possible. “Well, then I’m going to
sleep!”
As she spoke, she put on her blindfold again.
Gerald looked at her with interest.
Women are really strange creatures. For example, it would be OK for you to ask for a lady’s Line
account if you looked handsome. She would probably be glad to add you on Line. However, if you
looked homely, she might think that you are very wretched and disgusting!
On the other hand, if you did not ask her for it, she would think that you don’t respect her.
In conclusion, being a simp was a tragedy.
The plane was still on its way. Gerald closed his eyes again and was in a semi–awake state.
Two hours was a very short time. It passed unconsciously. During this period, except for the middle time, Gerald and Joselyn didn’t say anything to each other.
Soon, the plane began to land slowly. When the sense of weightlessness came, Gerald rubbed his eyes and then woke up.
After two hours of nap, he felt much more energetic.
After the plane landed and glided, most of the people on the plane took out their phones and started to turn on their phones. They picked up the phone and sent messages.
Carson, who was next to Gerald, kept tapping his fingers on the phone after turning it on. At the same time, his eyes looked at Gerald from time to time, with a grim face.
Yet Gerald did not care at all.
Carson’s actions were all under Gerald’s control. Gerald could roughly guess what Carson wanted to
