This misunderstanding was really too much. At first, Alice had truly believed that it was Quinton.
Alice did not question Quinton regarding this matter in detail because she did not want Quinton to feel that she had agreed to get into a relationship with him simply because she was feeling grateful toward him for his help.
Now, everything was clear.
Quinton had not resolved this matter at all. So, who could it have possibly been?
At this time…
The security guard suddenly received a call from his headset. There was a surprised expression on his face as he replied with three respectful ‘yes’s.
His face turned pale immediately.
Right afterward, the security guard bent over before he bowed and said, “Dear ladies, I am really sorry. I made a mistake. Your consumption here tonight is all free. You… you can leave now!”
Upon saying that, the security guard remained bent over and did not dare to straighten his back at all.
“This…”
Alice and the rest of the girls were all stunned.
This scene was exactly the same as the last time, aside from the fact that Flynn had not made an appearance here today.
Who was the one who had called for help? Who had this kind of power?
Naomi was also extremely surprised. “I think we should head back to the campus first. We will discuss this matter after we get back to the dormitory.”
Then, Naomi looked at Alice with a worried expression on her face.
“Mm… let’s go back first.”
Alice was very confused at this time.
What was the problem?
Who was the one who had been helping them all along?
Everyone was ready to leave the karaoke bar at this time.
“Eh? Where is Gerald?”
Naomi wanted to look for Gerald, but she realized that Gerald was nowhere to be found at all.
“Yes! Where is that Gerald? D*mn it! He was just standing behind me just now!”
“Hmph! I bet he ran away again because he’s afraid that he would have to fork out some money. Isn’t this the same as last time? As soon as he realized that something was wrong, he hurriedly came up with an excuse to leave and go to the bathroom. He only dared to come back after we had already resolved the problem!” Jacelyn said in contempt.
“No! Gerald is not that kind of person!”
Naomi defended Gerald before she continued looking around for him.
Just then, Gerald suddenly opened the door and came into the room.
At the same time, he was putting his cell phone back into his pocket.
“Is everything settled? If everything has been settled, let’s leave now. I’ve called for three cabs and they’re already waiting outside!”
Gerald spoke to the group of people lightly.
Then, he turned around and left the room.
Everyone in the private room was startled, especially Alice.
She could feel her heart beating uncontrollably.
Gerald had already called for three cabs for them. This indicated that he already knew that everything would be alright.
It was the same situation as the last time when Gerald had secretly run out during the commotion.
When he came back, everything had already been resolved.
Was this simply a coincidence?
