Chapter 294 Exchange With Your Head for It

Gerald was indeed weak. He never expected that he would be so weak after using Death Storm.

He missed Valery a lot at this time.

He had to rest once every time he walked for several feet. He walked far slower than normal people.

They set out at around twelve in the afternoon. When they arrived in the town, two hours had already passed. It was two in the afternoon.

With the help of Leila, Gerald went to the bank. He sat on the chair and rested for half an hour. Then he let out a long sigh of relief and went to the ATM. He took 3,200 dollars out. Then in the afternoon, with the help of Leila, he went to the mobile phone store to buy a new phone and got a new SIM card.

The SIM card of his former phone couldn't be used any longer after his phone was broken.

Gerald did all this for one thing.

He wanted to contact Valery.

His current physical condition didn't allow him to help Wesley and his daughter at all.

If he helped them return the money, some unnecessary trouble might be caused. So... He decided to come out, buy a new phone, and get a new SIM card. So that he could contact Valery. Although he couldn't remember Valery's phone number, he was her friend on Line.

His Line account was associated with his phone number. He even couldn't use other people's phones to log onto his Line account when his SIM card couldn't be used.

So, he had to come out today and apply for a new SIM card.

When everything was done, it was about five o'clock in the afternoon.

From beginning to end, Leila did not ask much. She stayed quietly beside Gerald. When she saw

Gerald taking the money, she did not say anything, nor did she ask Gerald for a reward.

In fact, she rarely spoke!

After taking the money, preparing the phone, and turning it on, they slowly headed back to the

house.

After leaving the town and seeing that there was no one around, Gerald took out his phone and logged into Line. He sent Valery a message.

During the past few days, Valery had been in a bad mood. She spent most of her time looking at her phone with anticipation.

Even though she did not know when Gerald would contact her.

She did not know if Gerald was still alive!

She didn't know whether Gerald would lose his memory even if he survived, just like three years

ago.

But she still waited.

She had no choice but to sleep for two hours since Macy urged her several times. But still, she didn't sleep well.

Then she got up again, waiting for the news from Night Watch while looking at her phone.

Ding!

Suddenly, she got a video chat request on her Line.

Valery trembled and quickly picked up the phone on the table. When she saw the name on the phone, her face instantly revealed a look of ecstasy.

"Macy, Gerald called me. Gerald called me!" She almost screamed and cheered.

Inside the room, Macy quickly rushed out.

On the way, Gerald held his phone. He felt his arms sore as he took the phone. He was really too weak. He said to Leila, "Leila, hold the phone for me. My arm is sore."

Leila held the phone for him. At this time, the call was connected. Valery was on the phone. She seemed exhausted. There were two big dark circles under her eyes. Her eyes were full of concern. She asked, " knew that you were definitely still alive. Where are you? I will come to you now."

She looked at Gerald's pale face and felt a little pain in her heart.

Gerald smiled slightly and said, "I didn't expect you to care about me so much. Oh, look at these dark circles. Are you worried about me? I'm so touched that I'm crying!"

Valery was stunned. When she heard Gerald talk like this again, her face returned to cold. "How's your injury?"

"I'm just weak. I was slashed dozens of times, but no big deal. I will recover after some time." Gerald said while thinking.

Leila was holding the phone for him on the side. When hearing Gerald's words, she was a little

afraid. She trembled a little.

However, over the past few days, she could tell that Gerald was a good guy, so she gritted her teeth and stood there still.

"Send me the address. I'll be right there!" Valery quickly said.

Gerald nodded. "I will send you the location. After you arrive in town, go replace a doctor called Camilla Doyle and ask her to bring you here to replace me. By the way, bring some people with you. I need some support."

"Got it!" Valery directly hung up the phone.

Gerald quickly sent the address over. Then, Valery replied with a message, "I will be there in two

hours."

After hanging up the phone, Leila hesitated and said, "Gerald, I... My dad and I... don't want to cause

trouble."

Gerald was speechless. Seeing Leila like this, he felt soft in his heart. He wanted to rub Leila's head, but he couldn't raise his hand. He smiled and said, "Leila, don't worry. I am a good guy. A very, very good guy."

"But you have blades... And you said you were slashed dozens of times... Are you a gang.....” She

didn't dare to continue.

Gerald looked at Leila and smiled. "I'm not."

As the two of them spoke, they slowly made their way back. By the time they were back, it was

already half past seven.

"I have to go cook. My dad will be back soon," Leila said.

Gerald nodded.

He sat down on the chair in the sitting room.

This chair was made by Wesley, and it was quite comfortable to sit on.

Not long after, Wesley also came back. He had a sad look on his face, holding a stack of money in his

arms. Gerald estimated that it was at most 1,600 dollars. However, he needed 3,200 dollars.

As soon as he reached home, a flashlight lit up outside.

"She has arrived?" Gerald was delighted.

After all, it had already been about two hours since he called Valery, so she should be arriving soon. It usually took two hours from Washington to get here. However, when he saw who it was, he frowned slightly.

The person who came was not Valery, but Raiden.

Raiden walked in with seven or eight people. When Wesley saw Raiden, his expression changed.

Raiden seemed relaxed after he got in. He looked at Leila. "Leila, you are cooking! Your hands are so beautiful. It's a waste for you to cook."

Wesley's expression changed slightly. "Raiden, didn't you say that you would come tomorrow?"

"Yes, but you got your salary today, right?" Raiden said angrily. "Give me the money."

Wesley trembled. He took out a stack of money and said, "This is the money I have this month. 2,000 dollars in total. And I haven't received some of the money. Can you..."

"I said 3,200 dollars, right?" Raiden said lightly.

Wesley's face trembled. "You... Can you give me a few more days?"

"A few more days?" Raiden sneered. "Okay. But guys, take Leila here. Let her sleep with me. One time for 16 thousand dollars. Works for you?"

"No!" Wesley's expression changed drastically!

Gerald's face also sank slightly! He never thought that Raiden would be so bold.

Raiden's people went over to get Leila.

"Wow!"

At this time, Raiden suddenly looked at a place. His eyes fell on Gerald's blades in the corner, Void-

breaking and Nameless.

Under the light, the two blades were bright and dazzling. It was obvious that they were good

weapons.

Raiden walked over and picked up the two blades. He took a look and said, "Fantastic. Wesley, why don't you tell me you have such good stuff? You guys, stop for now."

The two people who wanted to drag Leila quickly stopped!

Raiden said, "These two blades are worthy of some money. How about this? 1,600 dollars for the two blades. Then I will let you go this month."

"They are not... mine." Wesley hurriedly said.

Raiden was stunned for a moment, then looked at Gerald with a smile and said, "They are yours? You said that you would help them pay the debt, right? Then I will take the blades away. Do you have any opinions?"

Gerald had been looking at Raiden the entire time. He suddenly had a smile on his expressionless face when he heard Raiden's words.

"1,600 dollars? Not enough." Gerald smiled and said lightly.

Raiden narrowed his eyes. He withdrew the blade and walked in front of Gerald. He put his hand on Gerald's wound and exerted force mercilessly. His eyes were filled with ruthlessness as he asked, "Enough or not?"

Intense pain rose from the wound. Gerald could feel it, but he didn't even frown. He just said with indifference, "You want the blade? Exchange with your head for it."

He had heard the sound of footsteps at the same time.
