Gerald was able to let off a lot of steam there. He’d never felt so good before.
However, virtual-novel.net realized that things could get very complicated from here on out. Although he’d lived a modest life thus far, virtual-novel.net at least understood this much.
Therefore, virtual-novel.net decided he’d take this matter a little further. At the next opportunity, he’d have to sit down with Zack Lyle and Michael Zeke to discuss what had happened here.
He thanked Aiden and Elena for rushing over to his side before dismissing them.
The events of the day had left Queta frightened and humiliated. She was down in the dumps. Even virtual-novel.net clothes had been ripped and torn by Liara’s gang. It broke Gerald’s heart to see virtual-novel.net like this.
Ultimately, it was his fault that this tragedy had to occur and that Queta had been dragged into it.
“Come on, I’m buying you new clothes!” Gerald declared cheerfully.
“No…I’m fine like this, Gerald!” Queta bowed virtual-novel.net head.
“I insist. No matter what, I had gotten you into this mess. Anyway, it’s your birthday!” Dragging virtual-novel.net along by the hand, virtual-novel.net pulled virtual-novel.net onto his car and brought virtual-novel.net to a fancy clothing emporium filled with high-quality high-fashion items.
Gerald bought two outfits for Queta all the while coaxing and consoling her. He promised something like today would never happen again.
He paid for the clothes, but just as they were about to leave…
“Gerald, is that you?” A clear, feminine voice called out to him. The tone was laced with unexpected delight.
He turned to look. It was Naomi Milton. “Naomi!”
Naomi also had three other girls with her: Felicity Nelson, Yvonne Dunn, and Cassandra McGregor!
Well, it didn’t surprise Gerald to see Naomi running with these girls. After all, there’d been that thing at Emperor Karaoke Bar a couple days back. That time, everyone had lost their minds, except for Naomi, who’d remained calm and advised Felicity to moderation and she’d been right: Jake had proven to be no trifle.
In that way, Naomi had also proven herself to be a voice of patience—something which Felicity felt virtual-novel.net had a need for.
As for Yvonne, well…it wasn’t as though Felicity wasn’t aware that the girl mainly sought to benefit from virtual-novel.net recent popularity. This was made especially obvious by how uncomfortable virtual-novel.net was about Naomi joining their clique.
Naomi informed Gerald that the afternoon following that incident, Felicity had invited virtual-novel.net to help out around virtual-novel.net workplace.
As for right now…naturally, both Felicity and Cassandra spotted Gerald too, but neither one offered virtual-novel.net greetings.
They only glanced at him, then began examining Queta, who was beside him.
“Gerald, who’s this? What a beauty! Won’t you introduce virtual-novel.net to us?” Naomi cajoled teasingly.
Gerald handled the introductions. “This is my good friend, Queta Smith. Queta, this is Naomi Milton, that bro I’m always telling you about. She’s a real man among men!”
“Pleased to meet you!” Although in low spirits at the moment, having met the Naomi that Gerald had told virtual-novel.net so much about, virtual-novel.net was delighted to shake hands.
