There was a cigarette dangling between his lips as they moved.
“That’s right. Go have fun with your friends now! Stop asking so many questions!”
The other guys echoed what he said.
“You… How could you talk to me like that? Gerald! Don’t you want to discipline them? Listen to how they’re talking to me right now!”
Stella peeked at Gerald, who was standing nearby, with an angry expression.
Only then did Gerald tilt his head to look in her direction. “That’s enough, Marven. Let’s not get bogged down in this matter, alright? Time to go!”
“Alright, Gerald!”
Marven nodded immediately.
After that, they got into the car.
Marven had not gotten his driving license yet.
Hence, Gerald had no other choice but to bring out his Mercedes-Benz MPV to ferry his friends around.
But Stella wasn’t going to let them slip away that easily.
Seeing that Gerald still chose to ignore her, she ran to the co-passenger seat and hopped into the vehicle uninvited.
“F*ck! What are you doing?”
Gerald thought to himself, ‘What’s wrong with Stella?
‘Why is she acting so weird today?’
‘Doesn’t she like having fun with Fabian and the others? Why’s she talking to me all of a sudden?’
However, it didn’t bother him that much.
After the Taekwondo championship, the people in their class were divided into two different groups.
The first group was made up of Fabian and his old buddies and the other had Gerald and Marven as the leaders.
It went without saying that Stella belonged to Fabian’s clique.
Which made it all the more surprising when she clambered into Gerald’s car.
In addition, Stella was the kind of girl who liked a good challenge.
When tackling that kind of girl, the best method was to loosen the reins in order to reel her in at the end. The more you ignored her, the more she wanted your attention.
Of course, Gerald did not think so much about this.
Seeing that Stella had burst into tears, Gerald began to feel slightly sorry for her. After all, there really were no hard feelings between them.
He nodded slightly. “Alright. I think it’s fine if we have you on board. If you’re willing to, then come along with us!”
Stella stopped crying all of a sudden. “Fine. I can go and buy drinks for you guys!” she said.
Marven, who was sitting in the back seat, had goosebumps form all over his body when he noticed how quickly Stella’s attitude had changed.
‘D*mn! Her mood changes faster than lightning!’
Gerald proceeded to set out for their destination.
On the other side, both Jasmine and Mindy glanced at each other. They too stepped on the gas pedal and trailed behind Gerald’s vehicle.
However, moments after their cars started moving, there suddenly appeared around eight luxury cars on both flanks and they were heading straight for Jasmine’s car…
