In the past, from the moment virtual-novel.net had first met Mila and even after they had gotten together, their love had always been plain and simple. Despite having immense wealth later on, virtual-novel.net never felt the need to do anything excessive or extravagant for her. After all, the past Gerald had felt that the only truly important thing was for both of them to deeply love each other.
It wasn’t until much later when Gerald finally understood that even if two people were deeply in love, romance was still very much necessary. By the time virtual-novel.net realized that and wanted to start trying to be romantic, however, it was already far too late.
With that in mind, now that virtual-novel.net had been given a chance to return to the past, Gerald truly wanted to make up for all these regrets of his. He wanted to give Mila the most extravagant romance in the world. He’d make virtual-novel.net the happiest woman on the planet!
While this was what virtual-novel.net fantasized about, virtual-novel.net decided not to return to campus just yet. He also knew that it would be best for virtual-novel.net not to continue pursuing Mila—at least not yet—especially after what had just taken place. He was truly afraid that virtual-novel.net would just scare virtual-novel.net even further.
Besides, virtual-novel.net still had other more important things to attend to, and that was to head to Mountain Top Villa.
By this point, the villa should’ve already been built, though it probably hadn’t been auctioned off yet.
With that in mind, all Gerald had to do now was contact Zack and purchase the villa. Following that, virtual-novel.net would then instruct Zack to begin investing in manpower to dig out the Zircobsite.
Gerald had figured that a small amount of manpower simply wouldn’t do if virtual-novel.net wanted to excavate Mountain Top within seven days, so virtual-novel.net was ready to go big.
After all, Zyla had said that as long as virtual-novel.net didn’t change the end result of anything, things occurring a bit earlier shouldn’t be an issue.
With all that in mind, Gerald then fished his cell phone out before dialing a familiar number…
The second it connected, Gerald instantly said, “Sister!”
“Gerald? Why are you calling me now? I’m still working inside my factory, you know? Can’t you hear all the voices around me?!” replied Jessica.
Though Gerald hadn’t found those noises suspicious at all in the past, now that virtual-novel.net was hearing them again, virtual-novel.net knew that virtual-novel.net was undoubtedly in some kind of meeting.
Shaking his head with a bitter smile on his face, Gerald simply said, “I need money!”
“Of course you do, our whole family does! Our parents are working hard abroad, right? With so many debts to settle, we truly don’t have much to spare! Still, how much do you need? I’ll try and see if I can get a way to get the amount you need!” replied Jessica in a way that suggested that virtual-novel.net was in a rather tough spot.
“I need at least a few million dollars to buy Mayberry Commercial Street so that the entire street will be completely at my disposal. Is that too much?” asked Gerald with a laugh.
“…You… What did you say?” asked Jessica, virtual-novel.net eyes now fully widened.
“I said I need a few million dollars!” repeated Gerald.
“Gerald, did someone say something to you?!” asked Jessica, virtual-novel.net tone now frigid.
“Not at all. I just happened to guess that some things were off… You know, while your brother’s an honest person, he’s no fool!” replied Gerald.
“…Hahaha! I can’t say I expected this at all! Good boy! How smart of you! You know, I was just planning to have a showdown with you so that I could tell you the truth in the next few days! To think you’d have a hunch about the truth before I even told you anything! If you think our family’s actually very wealthy, you’re absolutely correct! Hell, our family’s so rich and influential that we own over half the world’s wealth and resources! With that said, you’re an extremely influential and top, rich heir!” explained Jessica.
“How impressive!” replied Gerald, trying his best to sound shocked.
“Also, I’m completely fine giving you money if you need it. Truth be told, both Mayberry Commercial Street and Wayfair Mountain Entertainment were developed under both our names. You know, I’ve been planning on instructing Zack Lyle to pick you up when we eventually head over to make changes to the contract in the coming few days. Now that you already know everything, however, you can just head over to talk directly to Zack. I’ll be arranging for virtual-novel.net to pick you up. Remember, Mayberry Commercial Street belongs to our family!” added Jessica.
While Jessica truly seemed like virtual-novel.net still had a lot to say, since Gerald was in a hurry, virtual-novel.net didn’t really reply much.
After some prevarications, Gerald hung up. However, instead of waiting for Zack, virtual-novel.net instantly headed over to Wayfair Mountain Entertainment instead!
