Slumdog Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 748

Chapter 748 Stunned

Gerald was a little annoyed.

It was not a big deal to bring a best friend for a blind date, but Elsie’s best friend Carlos was a male. Furthermore, after they arrived, Elsie only said a few words, but Carlos kept asking questions all the time. Gerald had naturally neglected Elsie. He just wanted to end this blind date quickly and wait to meet the next lady who had been arranged at night.

Elsie noticed that Gerald seemed to be a little unhappy, so she tried to break the ice and said, “Oh, Carlos is just worried that I will not live well in the future. Please excuse him.”

Gerald glanced at Elsie indifferently. Just then, the dishes had been served gradually.

At the same time, Gerald’s phone rang again.

Gerald looked at the phone screen and found the caller was Valery again.

When he just picked up the call, Valery hung up again.

Gerald frowned. He sent a Line message to Valery. It read: “What’s up? Why did you hang up again?”

Valery did not reply to his Line message.

Meanwhile, opposite him, Elsie and Carlos had already started eating, without saying anything to Gerald.

Gerald was dumbfounded that they were sharing food on their plates with each other. Gerald did not know what to say. He felt like he was the third wheel, and they were more like a couple.

Gerald cleared his throat and said, “Ms. Rubio, excuse me.”

Elsie looked up and said, “Huh?”

Gerald said calmly, “Well, I don’t think we match each other. After this meal, we can go back and explain to the elders. You can just tell your parents that you don’t like me. Is that OK with you?”

Hearing that Gerald took the initiative to reject her, Elsie, who had looked down on Gerald during the process of questions and answers, suddenly had a little bad mood.

Carlos tittered and then said, “it doesn’t matter. I’ll introduce you to someone rich and handsome another day.”

Elsie glanced at Gerald indifferently and said, “Okay, then you go to pay the bill.”

“Pay the bill?” Gerald curled his lips and said, “We three should split the bill. I’ll settle one-third of the bill. No problem, right?”

Elsie and Carlos were stunned. Then a trace of displeasure appeared on Elsie’s face. Beside her, Carlos tittered and said, “So you’re a pauper. Unexpectedly, you request to split the bill on a blind date. Well, you are already 27 or 28, so you’re probably just a common employee at Universe Group.”

Gerald did not bother to argue with Carlos. Looking at the food on the table, he felt a little hungry. Then he took off his mask and was going to have some bites.

When he just took off his mask, his phone rang. It was another call from Valery.

Just like the former calls, when Gerald picked up. Valery directly hung up again.

It seemed that Valery didn’t want to talk to Gerald but just wanted to disturb Gerald’s blind date and screw it

Gerald had a strange look on his face. Just then, Elsie and Carlos, who were sitting opposite Gerald, shrank their pupils slightly and fixed their eyes on Gerald.

Gerald knew that they would recognize him when he took off his mask.

“You… really are… Gerald!” Carlos was shocked, with a trace of horror on his face.

Elsie’s pretty face was also full of astonishment.

Gerald looked at them indifferently, grabbed some food on his plate, and ate them up quickly. Then he looked up at Elsie and said, “I will pay one-third of the bill and leave the rest to you. We are indeed not a good fit. Please go back and tell the introducer.”

With that, Gerald cast an indifferent glance at Carlos and said, “In addition, if you go on a blind date next time, don’t bring your close guy friend with you. He is just like a fucking fly that keeps buzzing around. It seems he is the one on the blind date. Of course, I think you two are a good match, so you don’t have to go on blind dates.”

“He…” Elsie got anxious immediately.

Elsie thought, this is not anyone else but Gerald!
