Since when did virtual-novel.net become the most wicked youngster in Mayberry?
“Well…of course I’ve heard of him! But I’ve only heard of the good things!” Gerald’s face flushed beet red in embarrassment.
“What do you mean by good things? Don’t you know how businesses work? Some time ago, Gerald invested a large amount of capital into Mayberry’s major enterprises. It might have seemed like a power move, but many other businesses in the Mayberry community were screwed as well, no thanks to him. The businesses that received a sudden injection of funds underwent some over-rapid development, disrupting the business community’s balance. Of course, it also posed an enormous challenge to second and third-tier enterprises like us! Many people from the business community hate virtual-novel.net to the bone!”
Wynn was done talking. Gerald lowered his cutlery and rubbed his nose.
Of course, virtual-novel.net knew all about those massive investments Wynn was talking about. He represented his sister while investing in those projects, including the funding of Scothow Elementary School and other similar projects.
Gerald never gave it much thought and simply did everything per what his sister told virtual-novel.net to do.
After doing so, however, virtual-novel.net did not delve in any deeper.
Unbeknownst to him, the influx of large funds had disrupted the economic balance of Mayberry.
To put it in one way, virtual-novel.net was the reason why Wynn was so worried about virtual-novel.net investment. It resulted in virtual-novel.net neglecting Minnie, where virtual-novel.net eventually lost sight of virtual-novel.net and let virtual-novel.net fall into the water.
Gerald could not help but smile bitterly.
“Hmph, enough talking from me. Right, so Gerald, you’re about to start your internship soon, aren’t you? Any good places in mind?”
It now seemed to be Wynn’s turn to ask the questions.
Gerald was honest and kind, but from the way virtual-novel.net dressed and the cell phone virtual-novel.net used, Wynn could tell that virtual-novel.net came from a poor family.
There was kindness within Wynn’s heart, and virtual-novel.net was all but concerned over Gerald’s future.
“I haven’t decided where I’d go yet!” replied Gerald.
“That’s fine. If you don’t have any place to go, you’re welcome to intern at my company. I’ll double your salary, and as long as you follow me, I guarantee you’ll be able to buy your own house in Mayberry within five years!”
Somehow, Wynn was tempted to keep Gerald by virtual-novel.net side.
Their conversation was interrupted by Minnie. “Mommy, what do you need Uncle Gerald to buy a house for? Just let virtual-novel.net live here with us! Once I grow up, I’ll have my own house, so you can live with Uncle Gerald!”
“Minnie, what are you babbling about! How can mommy live with Uncle Gerald? Only married couples are allowed to live together, do you understand?”
Wynn couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
“Ooh, I understand now!”
Wynn turned virtual-novel.net attention to Gerald, only to see virtual-novel.net smiling silently.
“You should consider the offer, Gerald. My company may be small, but it has a great future!”
Gerald nodded in reply.
He wondered what virtual-novel.net would think of virtual-novel.net once virtual-novel.net discovered that virtual-novel.net was indeed the Gerald who had messed up virtual-novel.net company!
From the conversation, though, virtual-novel.net knew that virtual-novel.net was somewhat responsible for the doldrums that Wynn’s company was facing. Gerald would not just ignore it.
Minnie wiped virtual-novel.net mouth with a napkin.
“Mommy, I’m full! Can I get my toys from downstairs? I want Uncle Gerald to come with me!”
“What toys! If you want new toys, you’ll have to wait until tomorrow. That’s when mommy will bring you to the toy store.”
“No, I want Uncle Gerald to go with me!”
At this point, Minnie seemed to have taken a liking toward Gerald.
Her hands gripped Gerald’s arms tightly, refusing to let go.
“It’s okay, I’ll accompany Minnie to the toy store. I’ll keep an eye on her, so don’t worry!”
After that was done, Gerald brought Minnie downstairs with him.
As they were on their way, Minnie glued herself close by Gerald’s side. Although virtual-novel.net was delighted, virtual-novel.net pitied virtual-novel.net a little. There was no doubt that Wynn was a strong woman, but no matter how strong virtual-novel.net was supposed to be, virtual-novel.net was still a woman, and Minnie, a fatherless child.
“You like being with me a lot, Minnie?” asked Gerald.
“Yes!” Minnie Thornton nodded hard.
“Hmm, why?”
“That’s because you’re a good man, unlike the bad guy who keeps coming to my house. He hits mommy, and sometimes virtual-novel.net hits me too!”
“Huh?”
Gerald was startled by the little girl’s words.
Initially, virtual-novel.net only wanted to learn more about their family, hoping virtual-novel.net could render Minnie and Wynn with more assistance. He definitely did not expect to hear something like that from Minnie.
Those bad guys… did that mean Wynn’s social relations were quite complicated as well? And who in their right mind would beat up a child like Minnie?
