Audrey looked at Gerald with disbelief in her eyes.
She knew the value of Desert Star This necklace was one of the most expensive necklaces in the
world. Every diamond on it was priceless.
“You. Do you give it to me?” Audrey swallowed her saliva and asked.
She was the daughter of the richest man in Los Angeles. Her family was not short of money, but it
was impossible to buy such a valuable necklace with 24 million dollars at once
She never expected that Gerald would give this to her
For a moment, many thoughts emerged in her mind.
“Of course Anyway, it is useless to leave it with me,” Gerald shrugged gently and said.
He did not think much of these things.
Audrey pursed her lips.

Audrey closed the box. Gerald smiled and said, “You can come in.”
Yazmin pushed open the room and then said to Audrey, “Audrey, come here for a moment. I have
something to tell you in private.”
Audrey looked at Gerald Gerald said with a smile, “Go”
Audrey let out a breath, then put away the box of Desert Star, and followed Yazmin out
Gerald also walked into the living room. He did not know what Yazmin and Audrey had said. But when
he saw them come out of the room, Audrey’s face was flushed, and there was another box in Audrey’s
hand
He could guess that it was a gift from Yazmin, so he did not ask.
He stayed at home until ten o’clock. Lilia and Jolie also left one after another. Audrey stood

When Gerald saw that Audrey was about to leave, he hurriedly stood and said, “I will send her off.”
“Good, be careful,” Lilia nodded and said.
Gerald’s nerves had been taut the entire time when they were on the way out. It was only after Gerald
entered the elevator that he let out a long breath and said, “Oh, my word. I finally managed to fool
them.”
Audrey’s gentle and virtuous temperament immediately disappeared. She looked smugly at Gerald and
said, “Of course. Don’t you know who I am? I guarantee that your family will be very satisfied.”
Gerald coughed and looked at the box in Audrey’s hand. He asked, “What did my mother give you? |
saw you come out with a flushed face”
Audrey hurriedly put the box away and said, “You don’t want to take it back, do you?”
Gerald said speechlessly, “I have given you Desert Star Why would I care about this little gift? I am Just
curious.”
Audrey pouted and said, “I won’t show it to you. But if you tell me who you are You still haven’t told me
what you and Carolyn said about Night Watch. Who exactly are you? Hurry up and explain
it to me
Gerald spread out his hands and said, “Fine then. I don’t want to know what’s inside the box”

You have to treat her well. Also, you are almost at the age where you should get married. Since the
relationship has been confirmed, and you have been in a relationship for so long. Find a time to let us
meet her parents and then set a date for you to get married.”
Gerald was dumbfounded. He hurriedly coughed and said, “Well, no rush.”
“Why not?” Mason said. “It is not easy to find such a good girl like Audrey. There must be a lot of
people pursuing her You should get married early.”
Gerald didn’t know how to answer
He coughed and said, “I will discuss this with Audrey Dad, Mom. I will move out tomorrow.”
“Well, don’t come back easily. It’s better if Audrey gets pregnant. Oh, no, you two should get married as
soon as possible,” Yazmin said.
Gerald couldn’t help but roll his eyes. He knew his mother well.
Mason nodded and said, “By the way, Gerald, tomorrow is the Kenneth family’s end-of-year
meeting. Our company has been invited. Mr. Hanson asked me to go with him. Did he call you?”
Gerald nodded and said, “Yes, he did. I will go with him tomorrow

unconcealable look of excitement in his eyes.

happened nine years ago.

Gerald exposed the truth nine years ago at the Kenneth family’s end-of-year meeting banquet, but
he did not mention it to Mason.

know what to do.

“I will represent our family to attend the Kenneth family’s end-of-year meeting banquet Bree has
already said that she will go with me. Do you

Doreen was slightly stunned, then she nodded and said, “I am willing to go, and I must go.”
Yes, Doreen must go, because Gerald said that he will prove his innocence tomorrow.

“Okay, then we three will go,” Armand said.
