Chapter 655
Chapter 655 One Month
Mason felt a little helpless and was amused.
In the years when Gerald was imprisoned, Mason was almost at the end of his rope. If Gerald hadn’t
made al name for himself in Night Watch and taken down Universe Group and given Mason a job,
Mason would have had a really tough time.
Apart from Yazmin’s family, all his friends left him.
Mason used to think that Manuel and Kirk were his good friends. But when he was at his bottom, they
became estranged from him. When Mason was short on money and tried to borrow some cash from
them, all of them turned him down.
Seeing that Gerald became famous and powerful now, they came to knock on his door, iming that
they were good friends before and that it was just a small thing for Gerald to give the green light to their
kids’ enrollment.
Mason didn’t want to be stingy. These men used to be his good friends. At least in his heart, Mason
always believed so. Although it was an unhappy time when they turned Mason down, Mason still
wanted to see their friendshipse back.
But their words made Mason frown.
Gerald noticed the change in Mason’s expression. He rubbed his chin, then looked at Manuel and Kirk
and said, “You said that you are my father’s good friends. But I heard that when I was in jail, my father
had been through a quite difficult time after he left the Keh family. You two alienated him and
turned him down when he came to you for help.”
Manuel and Kirk were stunned.
Manuel revealed an awkward expression and said, “We dared not to go against the Keh family. We
are too small to offend that family. If the Keh family targeted us, we would be doomed!”
“But my mother’s family have always been in contact with us, and nothing had happened to them so
far,” Gerald said as he waved his hand. “It’s okay if you want to reconnect with my father. He did not
have many friends. It’s lucky enough for him that he wasn’t betrayed by his so-called friends.
“As for you want your children to join the Night Watch, that’s not my call. We have rules to recruit
Watchmen and to be honest, it’s not difficult to get in if they are clean. Since they were rejected by
Night Watch, it only meant that things were serious about what they had done. Moreover, don’t think
that you will get rich after you be a Watchman. I earned my properties by aplishing missions.
Some rich clients would give me their shares after I finished the escort job. And some properties I
earned belonged to the Night Watch before, but I exchanged them with my feat. In other words, I
earned everything I have by dancing on the razor’s edge every day,” Gerald said calmly.
Manuel frowned. He looked at Mason beside him and said, “Mason, your son is really something. Is he
lecturing us now?”
Mason wanted to say something, but Gerald nced at the two and said, “If so, Manuel, I’m afraid you
have to get out of here.” right.” Mason felt great when he saw them being talked back by Gerald and he
said with a smile,
“What Gerald said makes sense. It is not for him to decide. Let’s get downstairs to have lunch.”
“No need.” Manuel snorted and said, “He wants to chase me out. Why should I stay? Kirk, let’s go!”
After that, he turned and left.
Mason saw them leave and sighed, “Some people will leave you in the end.”
“Don’t sigh, dad. You don’t have to make friends with people like them. He thought that we would ask
them to stay if he left. Seriously, I don’t give a shit about them.” Gerald curled his lips and said, “Dad,
you are still young. You should make more friends with your colleagues in thepany. Or you can
take walks around this neighborhood to meet some new people.”
Masonughed out loud. “Don’t worry. I’m not upset. I’ve seen through it after all these years.”
Gerald stayed in Sacramento for a while. During this period of time, everything seemed peaceful and
smooth. asionally, he would hear some news of Elite Ghostnding, but most of them wouldnd in
the North. They left their tracks all over the world, including Sacramento. They hadnded here twice.
But now, Sacramento was different. This ce was full of experts now.
Not to mention the Night Watch squad, just the more than 1,600 peopleing from Sin City would be
able to put down every ordinary Elite Ghost in Sacramento.
These people from Sin City had slowly integrated into society. They had also opened several martial
arts clubs in Sacramento and allocated shares ording to each person’s strength. Gerald had a stack
of twenty percent in the martial arts club.
Now that there had been an atmosphere of martial-artist-learning in this city, the business of the martial
arts club was extremely good. Gerald and Valery had arranged some jobs for these people, and
gradually, they sessfully settled in Sacramento.
They were used to punching their way out when they were in Sin City. In this peaceful society, they
cherished their lives very much. What’s more, Scar was still here and had been keeping an eye on
them, so they dared not to mess around and had quite an easy life.
Soon, Gerald had stayed in Sacramento for a month. During this time, he calmed down a lot.
Ever since he recovered his memories, Gerald had been fighting every day for almost a year. He had
put himself to death several times and then came back to life again. The long life of fighting had given
him an air of bloodthirst.
In this month of staying with his family, he had gained a lot of peace in his heart.
Gerald did not deliberately cultivate himself. Now the cultivation couldn’t lead him to greater
improvement anymore.
He spent most of his time with Valery and the others having fun, like ying tennis or something.
Of course, he had tried to coax Valery several times into going swimming with him, but Valery refused.
This guy wanted to see Valery in a swimsuit.
His life had a rxed pace for now.
The Elite Ghost was not a threat for the time being, and of course, the world was undergoing a
tremendous change in the meantime.
The era of martial arts was quietly approaching. Whether it was office workers or students, they would
get into the martial arts club when they had free time. The martial arts club that Gerald opened was
called “Lightbringers”.
During this period of time, the applicants streamed into the martial arts clubs, and the business of the
club was booming.
Under the advertising of the Night Watch, they had recruited a total of 500 thousand people in the
country for the first reserve service.
500 thousand was quite arge number. They would not all stay. If they failed to reach the primary level
in three months, they would be eliminated and the Night Watch would start another round of
recruitment.
In short, the world was changing. Next time the Elite Ghost invaded thisnd, at the very least, the
ordinary people would be prepared. They would not be unable to resist likest time.
Gerald felt much more rxed. Of course, his good days were about to end.
Now he was in a car rushing towards the airport.
Milo, Belinda, and Valery were also in the car, and Christopher was the driver.
Now, Christopher had be the pilot of Team 11762.
One day ago, Gerald received a call from Jacob, who told him that ine had contacted the
headquarters of the Night Watch and wanted Gerald to meet him in the Arctic
Later, Gerald quickly contacted Christopher and decided to set off today.
ine did not give them the details. But ording to Jacob, ine had most likely recovered, so
Gerald nned to take a look.
“Damn it. Is ine going to quit? Why did he ask us to bring so many things over?” Geraldined,
speechless.
There was a big truck following behind them, carrying mattresses, beds, vegetables, pots, pans, and so
on.
They transported these things to the airport. They did not take the previous ne but changed to a big
one. Otherwise, they would not be able to carry so many things with them.
Because the ne they took was just an ordinary one, it would take them longer to arrive.
