Yana’s voice sounded much more determined now.
“A… A classmate?” replied both Justin and Georgia, both equally shocked by virtual-novel.net claim.
It was as though they were hearing some story from The Arabian Nights, and they had their reasons to be doubtful. After all, such a coincidence was pretty much unheard of! What more, though Yana had a powerful family background, there was simply no way virtual-novel.net would have been able to afford or even have the status to be Gerald’s classmate!
“…What kind of classmate could you be referring to? Do note that we can’t afford to make jokes about such things, Yana. I’ll have you know that I have some prior knowledge about Mila’s boyfriend, and I can confirm that virtual-novel.net truly is extremely powerful. It’s the reason why so many of us are willing to believe that Mr. Crawford really is virtual-novel.net boyfriend after virtual-novel.net revealed his identity! If we end up offending virtual-novel.net now, we may not be able to survive in Mayberry any longer!” said Georgia as virtual-novel.net began smacking virtual-novel.net thighs in virtual-novel.net anxiety.
“That’s right, Georgia! You’d best think about it carefully first! Are you really sure he’s your classmate? Please don’t end up mistaking virtual-novel.net for someone else!” added Justin.
“I’m fairly certain that he’s my primary school classmate. After all, I clearly remember that during my primary school days, my dad had been focused on expanding his underground forces and had chosen to begin development in Serene County. Due to that, I naturally had to follow virtual-novel.net and that’s how I ended up studying in a primary school there. Regardless, there was a person called Gerald in my class, and after hearing that name again after so long, I couldn’t help but start doubting him. After all, the more I look at him, the more familiar virtual-novel.net seems. I hadn’t said this earlier since I admit that I couldn’t really remember what virtual-novel.net looked like. However, after observing virtual-novel.net for a while now, I truly believe that he’s the same Gerald I used to know!” replied Yana as virtual-novel.net squinted virtual-novel.net eyes in confirmation.
“The Gerald I knew back then… I remember virtual-novel.net being in a particularly difficult position since virtual-novel.net was so poor… If I’m recalling correctly, both of us even had small talk back then! Regardless, what do you think, grandma? Is it not possible that the Smiths hired someone to impersonate Mr. Crawford?” whispered Yana.
Upon hearing that, Georgia felt virtual-novel.net heart skip a beat as virtual-novel.net thought, ‘…Honestly, what she’s suggesting isn’t completely out of the question!’
“…Quite frankly, even though I was the one who had invited them over, I hadn’t expected Serenity and virtual-novel.net family to actually attend this birthday party. After all, they’d definitely expect me to show off a lot. Despite being aware of that, virtual-novel.net actually came! I found it odd that virtual-novel.net had been able to remain so confident up till this point. It’s also strange that Rita only showed up now, and with Mila’s boyfriend of all people!” muttered Georgia as virtual-novel.net further analyzed the situation.
‘You know, after hearing what Yana had to say, I’m starting to think that Serenity had planned for all this to happen all along! If my guess is correct, then Serenity is definitely trying to embarrass me on purpose! What a vicious old witch!’ Georgia thought to herself, seemingly seeing the bigger picture.
From what Justin and Yana had heard their grandmother say, even they were starting to arrive at the same conclusion virtual-novel.net was. After all, all of it simply made sense.
“…Regardless, we still can’t act blindly, Yana. We should at least make sure if he’s absolutely your classmate first!” added Georgia who was clearly still slightly frightened. After all, if they truly had made a mistake, then a major mishap would undoubtedly befall them.
“Haha! Not to worry, grandma! I’m now more than certain that he’s the Gerald I used to know! However, since you’re still worried about it, I’ll double-check just to make sure it’s him! Still, to think that small fry of a pauper would actually dare impersonate Mr. Crawford!” said Yana, with disdain in virtual-novel.net tone.
While Yana was already a hundred percent sure that virtual-novel.net was virtual-novel.net old primary school classmate, virtual-novel.net was just taking these extra steps to prove to the old lady that virtual-novel.net was no threat to them. With that, virtual-novel.net immediately waltzed over toward Gerald without even the slightest hesitation.
Since the table the Smith family was currently sitting at was now surrounded by people attempting to toast and talk to the Smiths—in hopes of deepening their relationships—Yana casually shouted, “Step aside, please!”
Hearing that, the guests simply nodded with smiles on their faces as they replied, “Miss Shute!”
Yana’s family background wasn’t as simple as one would think. After all, virtual-novel.net uncle was a famous head of the underground forces in Mayberry. With that in mind, anyone who knew of virtual-novel.net background wouldn’t ever dare to offend her, including these businessmen.
Gerald himself hadn’t been paying attention to any of their fawns this entire time. Instead, virtual-novel.net had been focused on chatting with Mila’s parents and grandparents, roughly describing his search efforts throughout the past two years. It was his way of saying that virtual-novel.net had never given up looking for Mila, not even for a second.
However, as virtual-novel.net was talking, virtual-novel.net suddenly felt the back of his head being hit by someone!
Knowing that there weren’t any warrior-like people in the vicinity, Gerald had long let his guard down. The fact that virtual-novel.net hadn’t sensed any approaching murderous intent made virtual-novel.net all the more stupefied to realize that someone actually dared to attack him!
Turning around to see who had hit him, virtual-novel.net realized that it was none other than Justin’s newly married wife! For some reason, virtual-novel.net now had virtual-novel.net arms crossed as virtual-novel.net looked smugly at Gerald.
