Rita quizzed as her arms were still tightly folded across her chest.
“Oh, well, all sorts really, just into different businesses and industries.”
To be honest, it was a question Gerald never really knew how to answer.
After all, his sister always mentioned that their family had too many different ventures. Basically, the family is involved in almost half of the world’s capital or industries.
Plus, he came from a huge family whose businesses had been passed down for hundreds of years.
Jessica did not exactly share much about their family.
Hence with only limited knowledge about his family, he could only answer those questions from others very generally.
“There seems to be no solid answer at all, eh? It’s so confusing!”
Rita shook her head as she smiled wryly.
“I heard that Mila and you met when the both of you were learning how to drive. You must have already gotten your driver’s license then! Have you bought a car yet?”
Rita prodded again.
“Yup, he has one. He bought a BMW 7 Series. His family told him he should practice how to drive well first. But Gerald doesn’t really dare to drive well at the moment. Hence, why I asked him to just get a cab here.”
Mila knew for the fact that it wasn’t the wisest to hide some things from Rita. This time round, she had no choice but to lie in order to prevent Gerald from feeling stressed out.
She had to hide the truth.
“Hah. BMW 7 Series? There’s this annoying dude in my department who drives the exact same car. He tried to pursue me and I simply told him to scoot off!”
Rita replied, shaking her head.
But looking at the circumstances, Gerald’s family business must be doing pretty well.
Nevertheless, he would still be too far behind of a match if he wanted to be Rita’s boyfriend.
Rita was really, quite the bombshell.
So, this was her capital.
Her goal was to be married into an extremely wealthy and powerful family. She wanted to find a rich husband who would be able to give in to all of her whims.
In fact, his age wouldn’t matter even if he was older or younger than her.
Most importantly, he just needs to be from a wealthy family!
For her, a wealthy man isn’t just defined as someone who has started his own company and has assets worth more than fifteen million dollars.
