Slumdog Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 749

Chapter 749 Congratulations

“Don’t go there tonight. Let’s get married!” Valery’s voice rang out in Gerald’s ear.

Gerald’s entire body froze.

Gerald had thought about marrying Valery many times.

It was Valery that made him slowly forget about Doreen

He married Irene and divorced her later. After that, though he got his memories back, and he had fallen for Valery again, strictly speaking, he wasn’t an expert in figuring out women’s thoughts, and he didn’t know what Valery was thinking.

In fact, Gerald had hardly ever been in love, and the things he had with Doreen were only one of the stirrings of his adolescence.

Then they got married. And his experience after becoming her husband wasn’t exactly perfect.

He had feelings for Valery for sure. Yet considering the threat brought by Elite Ghosts, he didn’t dare to give her any promises. What was more, Valery was always aloof and cold, so Gerald had always been restraining bimself.

After living a period of peaceful life, he planned on pursuing Valery. He wanted to know if they could get together.

But after he returned to Sacramento, his family had been pushing him so hard that he had to say yes to a blind date. Thinking about the fact that he didn’t know about Valery’s thoughts, he figured that he might meet someone suitable for him.

And now, Valery suddenly offered to marry him, which made him extremely excited.

He swallowed and said, “You… Don’t lie to me!”

“You don’t want to?” Valery asked in a cold tone.

“Are you kidding? Of course, I want to!” Gerald smiled and said. “So, are we… together now?”

“Yes!” Valery’s voice was very soft.

Gerald was secretly delighted. Before he could say anything, Valery said, “I’m almost done with my surgeries here. I’ll come to Sacramento tonight.”

“Great!” Gerald said excitedly.

“I’m hanging up then,” Valery said. “If anything, talk to me on Line.”

Unlike the usual times, her voice was no longer cold. Instead, she sounded… a bit shy.

She directly hung up the phone without waiting for Gerald to speak.

After hanging up the phone, Gerald laughed heartily and was thoroughly excited. He… had a girlfriend now.

He was twenty-eight years old. In fact, during those years when he was a Watchman, he had contacted countless women, and a lot of them were pretty. However, this was the first time he was in a relationship.

When he was married to Irene, he was nothing but a tool.

At that time, Irene didn’t take him seriously at all, and he never felt that he was in love.

Valery was standing in the hallway of Night Watch’s headquarters. When she hung up the phone, her face, which had always been cold and aloof, was already flushed. She looked shy, which was a rare thing.

She was the best doctor Night Watch had, and she was a cold woman.

However, no matter how capable she was, she was a woman after all. She had hardly been in any relationships, and she had complicated feelings when thinking of Gerald.

She had been looking for Gerald during the three years he had been missing. When she found him and found out that he was married, she was a little jealous.

And this time, after she knew that Gerald had gone on a blind date, she could not help but want to stop him. She was worried that Gerald might get married again. Then… she chose to take the initiative to call him.

She tried her best to keep her cool and offered to marry Gerald. In fact, after saying those words, she couldn’t help but blush.

“Dr. Manning, what’s wrong? Why is your face so reddish?” suddenly, Macy walked out of the room and asked curiously when she saw Valery.

Valery rarely blushed.

Valery was a little embarrassed and quickly explained, “It’s a bit hot.”

“Is it?” Macy tightened her clothes and said. “But I’m feeling a bit cold.”

Then Macy smiled and said, “I saw you on the phone earlier. Are you seeing someone? Is that why you are shy? Alas, I guess Gerald will be sad for a while.”
