Everyone was exclaiming in awe.
At that moment, Sienna and Xeno stepped out of the car. Xeno then tossed the car keys over to Gerald before saying, “Here you go, brother! I brought it here, just like you told me to!”
Gerald had asked Xeno for a favor two days ago. Since he didn’t have a car in this area and he still needed some form of transportation, he had told Xeno to bring his car over.
Gerald smiled as he patted Xeno on the shoulder. They then entered the conference hall together.
“So that car belongs to Mr. Crawford!” said everyone with envy in their voices.
After taking loads of pictures, the birthday celebration finally started. According to Zack, this celebration was way less grand compared to what Gerald’s sister had hosted back then.
Gerald didn’t have any trouble accepting that fact. After all, his sister had rented an entire island for her birthday party! That was just way too over the top, even if it was for her birthday!
The party continued till about three in the afternoon.
Though Giya had promised that she would come to the party, in the end, she didn’t. After Gerald tried calling her several times, she finally picked up. Her excuse was that she wasn’t feeling well so she couldn’t make it.
Slightly worried, Gerald asked her if she was okay, but she immediately hung up on him.
He decided not to question her any further after that. After all, it wasn’t obligatory for her to attend his birthday party. After drinking a few shots, Gerald decided to rest in one of the waiting rooms.
“Hey, who are you people? No outsiders allowed in here!” said a bodyguard outside.
“I’m Mr. Crawford’s relative! I’m Mr. Jung!” replied the voice of a middle-aged man.
