Slumdog Billionaire Husband By Rayden Berg Chapter 49
Chapter 49 I Wonder What Gift You Have Prepared
Gerald rubbed his nose. From the conversation and Matthew wanting to pursue Keira, Gerald could tell
that the son of the president of New Bank branch in Los Angeles was also pursuing Keira.
Audrey looked at Gerald and said, “By the way, you asked Gerald to pretend to be your boyfriendst
time. Let him pretend to be this time.”
Keira pouted and looked at Gerald.
Gerald was so speechless. These two women were so annoying.
Audrey had just used him as a shield. Matthew and the others knew this. Now they wanted Gerald to
pretend to be Keira’s boyfriend. Matthew and the others wouldn’t believe it.
Keira looked at Gerald.
Gerald shrugged and said, “I’m fine. But I’m between you. They won’t believe me.”
Keira smiled bitterly and said, “That’s true. They probably won’t believe you. Forget it. Let’s not bother
about it for now. Go in and take a seat. Doreen and Henley have arrived.”
Gerald was stunned. “You know Doreen and Henley?”
Keira nodded. “Doreen, Henley, and I are university ssmates. But speaking of which, Doreen looked
down on Henley when we were in university. I didn’t like Henley’s personality. I didn’t expect that they
would end up together.”
Gerald chuckled and thought, they are together? That’s not gonna happen.
Gerald looked at Keira. He did not expect that Keira would also graduate from California State
University in Sacramento. As one of the top universities in the country, it was understandable that she
could work at New Bank.
After a few words, Audrey and Gerald walked into the banquet hall. There were many people there.
This banquet hall was notrge. There were only four round tables. There were many people at the
table. These people were not old. They were supposed to be Keira’s friends and colleagues. As for the
older generation, Keira would probably choose to celebrate with them alone.
Audrey looked around and quickly saw Doreen and the others. Then she walked over with Gerald and
sat down.
Seeing Gerald, Henley frowned and said, “Can you sit at another table? Sitting with you will disgrace
us.
On the table, apart from Henley, Doreen, and Penny, there were Hazel and a few people that Gerald
did not know.
Penny curled her lips and said, “That’s right. Do you know Keira? How do you have the nerve toe
here to eat?”
Gerald frowned. Audrey exined, “Penny, Keira invited Gerald over.”
What Audrey said sunned them. Henley said, “Whatever! There are some empty seats over there. Go
find a seat. After Audrey sits down, there is only one seat left for Keira. You are not qualified to sit with
us.”
Doreen had an indifferent expression. She did not speak for Gerald. Audrey looked awkwardly at
Gerald.
Gerald rubbed his nose, not bothering to talk nonsense with Henley. Gerald looked around and saw
Matthew. He smiled slightly, walked to Matthew’s table, and sat down.
When Matthew saw Gerald walk over, his body instinctively shrank. Matthew remembered the scene of
Gerald beating up Fletcher that day.
At this table, there was a mix of men and women. When they saw Gerald, they all had fake smiles.
A dark–skinned man, who was not tall and wore slightly fancy clothes, asked, “Who is he?”
Matthew thought of something, and his expression changed slightly. “This is Gerald Keh.”
That man’s eyelids twitched slightly. Then he looked at Gerald and said, “Gerald, let me introduce
someone to you. This is the son of the president of New Bank, Phillip Nielsen.”
Gerald’s expression changed slightly. He looked at Phillip, who then sneered, “Ah? You are Gerald. I
heard that you pretended to be Keira’s boyfriend, and then pretended to be Audrey’s boyfriend. You
provoked Fletcher and managed to survive until now. You are lucky.”
Beside him, Matthew’s mouth twitched, but he did not say anything.
Obviously, Fletcher did not let this matter spread. After all, this was a great humiliation for him.
Gerald smiled and said, “Sort of.”
Phillipughed and said, “How much is it for you to pretend to be their boyfriend? I heard that you were
aborer before. How could Keira and Audrey hire someone like you? They should get someone
better.”
The others on the tableughed.
Matthew also revealed a hint of a sinister smile.
Everyone seemed to have arrived. A waiter began to serve the dishes. Keira walked into the banquet
hall leisurely. She smiled sweetly and said, “Thank you foring to my birthday banquet today. Enjoy
yourselves. I ordered a room at
Glory Club. After eating, let’s continue to y!”
While Keira was talking, a girl next to her took out a box and said, “Keira, happy birthday. This is the gift
I prepared
for you, a pair of earrings.”
The girl opened the delicate box, revealing a pair of beautiful ear studs.
“Thank you, dear,” Keira smiled sweetly at her. Keira then took the box and handed it to a waiter beside
her.
Obviously, Keira had expected that many people would give her gifts.
As expected, one gift box after another began to appear. These gifts might not be valuable, but they
were not cheap. At the very least, they were worth over 160 dors.
After most of the people were done, Audrey stood up with a smile. She walked over to Keira with a gift
box, opened it, and said, “This is a piece of blue and white porcin. Keira, I know that you like to
collect antiques. So, I bought it in All Antiques.”
Keira’s eyes lit up slightly. She said, “Thank you, Audrey. I like it very much!”
Henley smiled and said, “The blue and white porcin is not bad. Its value is probably around three 50
thousand dors.”
After Henley finished, there was a sound of gasping in astonishment in the surroundings.
On Gerald’s table, Matthew frowned. He also prepared a gift, and it could be considered expensive. He
thought that it would be the best gift tonight. Butpared with the blue and white porcin that
Audrey brought out, Matthew’s gift would probably not be the best.
Henley smiled slightly and said, “We all know that Keira is from the dance department of California
State University in Sacramento. She dances very well. Doreen and I did not know what to buy for you.
Coincidentally, before we left for Los Angeles, we saw a pair of crystal dance shoes at an exhibition!”
Henley took out a gift box and opened it. In an instant, the light shone down, and the crystal shoes
shed with dazzling light. It was beautiful!

Keira’s expression changed slightly as she said, “This… is too expensive. I can’t ept it!”
“It’s not expensive.” Henley chuckled and said, “It’s just 130 thousand dors. It’s nothing much.”
The people beside Henley wanted to curse out loud. His words sounded so disgusting.
Doreen smiled, “Keira, ept it. This is our kind intention.”
Keira was stunned for a moment and then nodded. “Alright! Thank you.
Doreen smiled slightly.
Beside Gerald, Matthew’s expression immediately became ugly. The gift Matthew prepared was the
same as Audrey’s, about 50 thousand dors. But it was outdone by Henley’s gift.
Matthew shrank his neck and was too embarrassed to take his gift out!
Next to Matthew, Phillip looked at him with disdain. Then, Phillip slowly got up and took out a car key
from his pocket. “I thought for a long time and didn’t know what to give you. I saw that your car seemed
quite ordinary, so I bought
you a Porsche. I hope you will like it!”
Beside him, Matthew’s face was bitter.
The price of Porsche might not be lower than that of the crystal shoes.
Phillip picked up a bunch of flowers from under the table and walked up to Keira. He held the flowers in
one hand and the car keys in the other. Phillip then came up to Keira and knelt on one knee, saying,
“Keira, be my girlfriend!”
Keira’s expression changed slightly. She looked around and then shook her head. “No, I have a
boyfriend.”
“We all know that your boyfriend is fake.” Phillip looked at Gerald. Suddenly, he rolled his eyes and
asked, “By the way, Gerald, you disguise yourself as Keira’s boyfriend, and you alsoe to her
birthday banquet today. I wonder what gift you have prepared.”
As soon as Phillip finished speaking, almost everyone looked at Gerald. Henley’s face revealed a
faintly mocking smile.
