Chapter 62 Gerald Meets His Best Friend
“I just heard you threatening my father, right?”
Gerald glanced at Kyrie with a cold and emotionless look.
It made Kyrie, who was sitting on the sofa, feel as if he had fallen into the abyss and tremble in fear.
“…” Kyrie stuttered, scared by Gerald’s eyes.
When Mason saw this scene, his expression changed slightly. He was worried that Gerald would be sent to prison again for hitting people. After all, Gerald had just been released, so Mason hurriedly said to Kyrie, “Just go. I can’t sign
this contract.”
Kyrie wanted to threaten Mason again, but under Gerald’s gaze, he did not dare to speak and stood up with his
briefcase.
When Kyrie passed by Gerald, Gerald’s cold voice rang in his ear, “If you dare to call people to find trouble, you will bear the consequences.”
Gerald could imagine what kind of suffering his parents had encountered in the past nine years.
In the past, Gerald was in Night Watch and could not come back, nor could he do anything.
But now, he was back. He would not let his parents suffer any grievance.
Kyrie swallowed hard and walked past Gerald.
Seeing him leave, Gerald put away his cold and murderous aura. He put down his backpack and looked at Mason, saying, “Dad, I’m sorry. I made you worry about me for nine years.”
Mason was in tears. His nose wrinkled as he said, “It’s good that you can come back. You know what? In these nine years, your mother and I went to the prison to see you many times, but we didn’t see you once. I’m fine, but your mother has always been very sad. But now you are back.”
Gerald’s nose was a little sour. He looked around and said, “Oh, right, where is my mother?”
“Your mother went to your aunt’s. It’s your aunt’s birthday today. I was going to go with her, but Kyrie called me and said that he had something to talk to me about, so I stayed. Since you are back, go with me to meet your aunt and the others,” said Mason.
As he said that, Mason sighed again and said, “Ever since your incident, the Kenneth family cut off all ties with us. Only your mother’s relatives stay with us and don’t leave us alone.”
Mason felt a lot better. He patted Gerald on the shoulder and said, “Let’s go, I’ll take you there.”
Gerald nodded, threw his backpack on the sofa, and went out with Mason.
Mason had a handsome annual income. Now he bought a mansion and had a good car. After getting into the car, Mason kept telling Gerald about what had happened in the past nine years. There seemed to be endless things he
wanted to tell Gerald.
Gerald listened to him quietly.
In fact, Gerald knew a lot of things.
Although he could not meet his parents when he was in Night Watch, he had always paid attention to their affairs.
Soon, they arrived at a community. After parking the car, they walked toward a building.
Just as they went downstairs, Gerald suddenly looked in a direction. A young man in his twenties was walking out of the community with his head lowered.
Gerald’s eyes lit up slightly. Gerald knew this person. It was Jacob Eden, Gerald’s playmate since they were children.
Jacob was not from a rich family, but he had a very good relationship with Gerald. They had known each other since kindergarten, and they had been classmates since they graduated from high school.
After graduating from high school, Gerald was admitted to California State University. Jacob was not good at studying, so he was admitted to a plain university. Since Gerald was imprisoned, they lost contact.
Jacob’s appearance had not changed much during the past nine years, but he seemed to have been rejected and was a little dejected.
“Dad, go to Lilia’s place first. I will join you later,” Gerald said.
“Huh?” Mason was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, “Your aunt’s house is in Building 7-8. I will tell them about your return in advance.”
Gerald nodded.
After saying goodbye to his father, Gerald ran over to Jacob.
