Chapter 97

At twelve at night, Gerald opened his eyes. After cultivating for a few hours, he felt refreshed.

He looked out of the window It was already dark outside Gerald let out a breath and walked out of the room. Gerald had not found Stephen's address yet, so he had no way to ask Stephen about the truth.

Yesterday, after Kyrie told Gerald that it was Stephen who ordered him to do so, Gerald tried to figure it out

Stephen had a solid reason. At that time, Stephen and Mason were competing. In order to make Mason lose his competitive advantage, Stephen had the motivation to frame Mason's son, Gerald But Gerald clearly remembered that at the annual meeting of the Kenneth family, he was sitting with his peers of the Kenneth family Gerald drank beer and he opened every bottle of them himself It meant that it must be someone who sat with him and drugged him without being noticed.

At that time, because Gerald had excellent performance and was favored by the family, the people who sat with him were mostly the direct line of descent from the Kenneth family Therefore, when Leandro told Gerald that the Kenneth family was also involved, Gerald thought that it should be related to the direct line of descent from the Kenneth family And Stephen, like Mason, was an offshoot.

Of course, Gerald felt that there would be no problem if he followed this clue and dug out the truth to prove his innocence.

After organizing everything, Gerald decided to ask Leandro to check Stephen's address tomorrow first, and then he would go to visit Stephen at night

Thinking of this, Gerald slightly frowned. He lay down on the bed and continued to sleep.

Nothing happened tonight. The next day, Mason woke him up early in the morning and drove him to Universe Group

Gerald felt that it was necessary to move out. Otherwise, he would not be able to get enough sleep and it would be difficult if he wanted to make a move

Gerald had just returned to Sacramento. He had not seen his parents for nine years. He should spend more time with them.

When they arrived at the company, Gerald made up an excuse and slipped away.

He ran to Keira's place to take a nap.

At ten o'clock in the morning, in Goldsun Group Jessica wore a white suit and walked into a

conference room with a few people, who were holding folders in their arms, behind her.

Drake and Jolie were sitting in the conference room. When Drake saw Jessica walk in, he hurriedly stood up

There was no longer arrogance on his face as he had when he faced Gerald and the others. Instead, he reached out in a fawning manner and bowed, saying, "Ms. Lange, nice to meet you."

Jessica smiled and looked at Jolie as she said, "You are Gerald's cousin?"

When Jolie and Drake heard this, they were stunned for a moment.

Seeing their expressions, Jessica instantly understood. She said, "It seems that Gerald is really low-key. He introduced you two to me without telling you, right? You have a good cousin." She was talking to Jolie when she said the last sentence

Jolie and Drake could not help but swallow their saliva.

They thought, Jessica Jessica knows Gerald!

This famous beautiful CEO in Sacramento knows Gerald!

It was because of Gerald's call that Drake could be able to meet Jessica. Gerald was not acting yesterday

Drake was stunned.

He swallowed his saliva. When he left yesterday, he said Gerald was acting, but Gerald actually did not call Jessica to cancel this meeting.

Drake looked down on Gerald from the bottom of his heart. Drake worked hard and made himself worth over 1 million dollars at such a young age. As for Gerald, he had been in prison as a rapist for nine years and had just been released from prison. Drake always felt superior when he faced Gerald

But now, when Drake learned that Gerald actually knew Jessica, a big shot in Sacramento, he was surprised and could not figure it out.

Jolie was slightly stunned. After a while, her expression became a little subtle.

She could not help but say, "Ms. Lange, how did you know Gerald?"

Jessica smiled and said, "It was a coincidence. He had done me a favor and then we got to know each other."

She sat down and said, "Take a seat. Introduce us to your project and your plan. This is our assessment team. Gerald introduced you and your plan to me, but our company will not invest in a project randomly. It depends on your project's prospects."

Drake and Jolie sat down, but Jolie was not in the mood to introduce the plan. She was absent-minded, and no one knew what she was thinking.

Drake sat down and said confidently. "We brought a game project that I have planned for a long time. I believe that it will definitely become a more popular game than League of Legends and Honor of Kings.. Drake made a slideshow and started a speech.

Jessica carefully listened to Drake, her brows tightly furrowed. The assessment team was constantly exchanging opinions with each other

Half an hour later, Drake's speech was over, and he looked at Jessica.

Jessica sat still. There were no traces of time on her face, but instead, she had a sort of charm that only time could bring to her

Drake could not help but swallow.

Jessica frowned and said, "Please wait a moment. We need to discuss it before making the decision."

After another ten minutes, Jessica raised her eyes and said, "Sorry, Mr Grandison. We can't invest in your game project"

Drake was stunned for a moment. His face changed slightly as he said, "But the investment fund is negotiable. This is a very promising project. I promise!" "Sorry" Jessica shook her head and then said, "This is the result of our evaluation. There is nothing I can do. The company is not operated by me alone."

Drake's face darkened. Then he asked, “Ms. Lange, did Gerald say something to you yesterday? Did he ask you not to invest in my plan?"

Jessica frowned and said, "What are you talking about? Business is business. I won't joke about my company. We won't reject a business plan just because of a few words from Gerald. It's just that we think that your project has no prospects. Of course, this is just our opinion. You can go to other companies to attract investment funds."

She smiled and said, "I'll let you see yourself out."

After that, Jessica left the conference room.

Drake's face darkened when he saw Jessica leave. He punched at the table and said, "Jolie, it must

be Gerald! He called Ms. Lange and told her not to invest in our plan. He let Ms. Lange meet us

and judge our plan! He was trying to humiliate me!"

Jolie was stunned and said, "How could that be? Maybe Ms. Lange just doesn't like our project."

"It must be him! My project is so good. Ms. Lange has no reason to refuse me!"

Drake said with a gloomy face. "This is not over!"

Gerald did not know about all of this. He slept in Keira's place and didn't wake up until it was

almost 12 o'clock at noon.

When he got up, he saw Audrey sitting opposite him and looked at him angrily

"Why are you glaring at me?" Gerald rubbed his eyes and asked.

"Humph! You pervert! You tried to kiss me yesterday!" Audrey glared at Gerald and said, "I will forgive you if you have lunch with me."

Gerald was speechless. You can just tell me that you want me to treat you to a meal."

Revealing two dimples, Audrey smiled, "I didn't ask you to treat me today My college roommate. invited me to a meal, but there is a very annoying man who will also be coming. You have to pretend to be my boyfriend."

Gerald was lost for words. "Again? Why don't you let me be your real boyfriend? But it will not be free, of course"

Audrey was stunned for a moment and blushed. She made a face at Gerald and said, "You wish!"
