Slumdog Billionaire Husband By Rayden Berg Chapter 23
Chapter 23 Gerald’s Past
At the exit of the airport, the three people looked at Gerald with different expressions.
The man had a hint of ridicule on his face. It was a kind of disdain.
Beside him stood a girl wearing a pair of long boots. She looked capable. Now, she had a long face as
if she was angry.
The other woman had long hair and wore a white dress. She looked cold and looked at Gerald with a
complicated expression on her face. There was a bit of hatred and a bit of astonishment in her
expression!
“Doreen, you know Gerald?” Audrey asked Doreen Cousy in surprise.
Doreen did not speak, but the man next to her said in a weird tone, “Of course, we do. He is the son of
the Keh family in Sacramento.”
Hearing this, Audrey looked at Gerald in surprise.
The Keh family in Sacramento was the top family in the country. If Gerald was a member of the
Keh family, it would make sense for Bradley to be polite to him.
However, Audrey was still confused. She had asked someone to investigate Gerald’s past. Before,
Gerald was just an
ordinary construction worker.
Did the people of the Keh family need to go to work at the construction site?
Did Gerald go there to experience a new life?
At this time, the man spoke again, “Nine years ago, he was an influential figure in Sacramento. As for
his reputation….
Heehee!”
Gerald frowned deeply!
This matter was rted to why Gerald entered the Night Watch.
Gerald came from the Keh family in Sacramento, but his family was only a branch of the big family.
Of course, he was a part of the Keh family anyway, and his family was also considered rich.
Moreover, Gerald’s grades were quite good at that time, and he was valued by the elders of his family.
But when Gerald was 18 years old, there was an ident. That ident was a shame that would
follow Gerald forever and it almost sent Gerald to prison. But at that time, Gerald was fooled by an old
man and brought to the Night Watch!
However, in the eyes of people in Sacramento and the Keh family, Gerald was already in prison.
Gerald knew two people among the three in front of him.
Doreen was Gerald’s high school ssmate. They also entered the same college. However, Gerald
dropped out not long
after he attended school.
This man was someone Gerald knew from college. His name was Henley Zumthor, and he was
Doreen’s pursuer.
When Gerald was still a student, because he and Doreen were close, Henley had always disliked
Gerald. During his college days, Henley even found someone to bully Gerald. At that time, Gerald had
not yet entered the Night Watch and knew nothing about martial arts. Thus, it was difficult for him to
fight back!
At that time, Doreen seemed to be not very interested in Henley. Gerald also did not expect that after
nine years, Doreen and Henley hade to Los Angeles together.
As for Doreen, Gerald had also had a crush on her in the past.
After all, Doreen was indeed very beautiful. Gerald and Doreen had known each other since junior high
school, but Gerald had never revealed his feelings for Doreen.
Doreen’s family background was very good, and she was a proud girl. It was a coincidence that Gerald
was able to get
close to her.
When Gerald disappeared from Sacramento, everyone thought that he had been imprisoned.
After a short moment of shock, Gerald’s expression returned to normal.
Audrey asked curiously, “An influential figure? How so?”
“The Keh family is a wealthy family. Geraldmitted a crime and went to prison. He disgraced
the Keh family, making them lose arge sum of money. Thus, the Keh family kicked him out
of the family,” Henley said with a faint smile. “I am right, you rapist?”
Hearing the word “rapist“, Audrey was stunned.
Doreen’s expression became even moreplicated.
Gerald frowned. He ignored Henley’s words. He just looked at Doreen and said calmly, “I was
wronged.”
Doreen’s expression did not change at all. She shook her head and said, “It’s all over. I don’t care
anymore.”
Gerald nodded. It was enough for him to exin it in one sentence. Whether Doreen believed it or not
wasn’t that important. Nine years had passed, and that bit of feeling had already been buried deep in
the bottom of Gerald’s heart.
Seeing that the moment was somewhat awkward, Audrey coughed and said, “Let’s go first. The car is
parked outside.”
Doreen nodded and walked toward the outside of the airport. After taking two steps, she suddenly
stopped and said, “Gerald, we are all Doreen’s seniors. We want to have a chat with her, and you don’t
have toe with us!”
Audrey frowned but did not speak.
But Gerald shrugged his shoulders indifferently. He didn’t mind it.
On the side, Henley looked at Gerald and revealed acent smile.
“Doreen is right. With your current attire, it is not suitable for you to walk with us,” Henley said with a
sneer.
Doreen did not even turn around. After finishing her words, she walked out directly.
Audrey gave Gerald an apologetic smile and then ran out.
Henley stayed behind. He looked at Gerald and said with a sneer, “I thought you were going to spend
the rest of your life in prison. I didn’t expect you toe out so soon. Let me tell you, Doreen and I are
going to get married. But there is no point in telling you. People like you are no longer in the same
world as us.”
After saying that, Henley gave Gerald a disdainful look and then ran out.
Looking at the backs of those people, Gerald touched his nose and said to himself, “We are indeed not
in the same
world.”
Whether it was the Keh family, the Cousy family, or the Zumthor family, they were nothing in
Gerald’s eyes now.
Gerald spent six years in Night Watch. Originally, the higher–ups told Gerald that as long as he
completed the mission in Los Angeles, he could return to Sacramento.
But after Gerald arrived in Los Angeles, he was injured and lost his memory. Then, another three years
passed.
‘After this matter is over, I have to go back. Some things should be settled.” Gerald touched his nose.
“And it has been nine years since Ist saw my parents.”
After muttering that, Gerald turned around, looked at the guidepost, and walked towards the subway
station.
After buying a ticket, Gerald walked onto the subway. There were not many people on the train, so he
found a seat and
sat down.
After a while, Gerald suddenly narrowed his eyes slightly.
Gerald saw a fiery red figure walk in from the entrance. The moment that woman walked into the
subway, she attracted the attention of many people. Gerald also looked over!
A woman in a red dress with a sexy figure and sunsses dragged a suitcase and walked into the
carriage.
It was Red Rose!
Gerald was slightly surprised and thought, she actually came to take the subway.
Red Rose was a top–notch assassin and was very wealthy. She actually chose to take the subway,
which was
something that Gerald did not expect.
Red Rose looked around. Then, she turned slightly, walked to the empty seat next to Gerald, and sat
down.
All of a sudden, countless envious and jealous gazes shot at Gerald.
There was a man with sses and a bald patch on his head sitting in front of Gerald. He looked at Red
Rose, swallowed
his saliva, and licked his lips!
It was obvious that this man was a lecher!
Gerald enjoyed the faint fragrance of roses quite a bit. He took out his phone and looked at it.
“Hey, dude, are you from Los Angeles?” Red Rose pointed at Gerald’s shoulder with her slender and
fair finger and
asked so.ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
Gerald raised his eyes and looked at Red Rose. She had taken off her sunsses and revealed a
perfect face.
“Well, I… I guess so!” Gerald coughed awkwardly.
In Red Rose’s opinion, Gerald was a little nervous when he saw her pretty face. Seeing Gerald look
over, Red Rose
smiled sweetly.
“Well, this is my first time in Los Angeles. I wonder what fun scenery Los Angeles has. Can you
rmend me some?
Although there is some advice online, I feel that it should be better to hear the locals‘
rmendations,” Red Rose
said.
Gerald pretended not to know Red Rose at all. He quickly said to her warmly, “Los Angeles is a tourist
city. There is a lot of scenery here. When youe to Los Angeles, you have to go to the White
Elephant Tower. The night view there is quite beautiful! Besides, it’s near the river, so the scenery is
very pleasant to the eye…”
Gerald introduced the scenery honestly.
After chatting for a while, Red Rose suddenly said, “You know a lot. Do you mind being my guide?”
As she spoke, she smiled sweetly and continued, “You won’t refuse me, right?”
Gerald raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Red Rose. “It’s not a problem for me to be your
guide. But… Do you have money?”
Red Rose was slightly stunned.
Red Rose thought that Gerald should have agreed to her invitation to be her guide without even
thinking about it. She never expected that Gerald would ask her for money!
“I can give you money. But isn’t it better to use other things aspensation?” Red Rose’s tone was
filled with endless temptation!
Any man who heard this would probably have a physical reaction! Gerald could not help but swallow
his saliva.
At the same time, information about Red Rose appeared in Gerald’s mind!
Red Rose was ranked seventh on the assassin list of Sin City. She was one of the top assassins at
Blood Lotus.
Red Rose became famous after killing a chief, and her strength was probably equivalent to Watchman
No. 15 to
Watchman No. 30.
Her private life was a little chaotic, and she was keen to hook up with some young and strong men…
Obviously, Gerald had just be Red Rose’s new target.
Seeing Gerald’s reaction, Red Rose slightly raised her lips. Apparently, she was very satisfied with his
reaction.
“How is it?” Red Rose once again leaned her body and got closer to Gerald. Gerald felt that his arm
touched her soft
skin.
Red Rose didn’t think that Gerald would reject her.
Gerald let out a breath and said, “Okay!”
