Slumdog Billionaire Husband by Rayden Berg

Chapter 253 There’s Still a Lot of Time Left

Along with the sound, several people walked over from the door.

Derick took the lead. Leana and Ingrid followed him. At the same time, there were three other people of

the Washington Great Four.

Gerald didn’t intend to bother Derick when Gerald came to save people at the beginning.

Gerald felt that if he came over with the Washington Great Four following him, others dared not to fight

with them since the four people were powerful in Washington.

If the Thornton family was really rude and unreasonable, then Gerald would let the four people use

some of their resources to make a scene on the Internet.

Gerald originally thought that the Thornton family was only greedy and wanted to threaten Jessica to let

her obey them.

However, Gerald never expected that it was because the Goldsun Group had found a jade lode whose

value was even immeasurable.

There were so many valuable things in the jade lode. Even Gerald was a little envious. The reason was

that there might be other things useful to Watchmen, which might be invaluable.

Looking at Derick and Leana, Gerald guessed what had happened. Leana saw Gerald leave and then

asked Ingrid. After Ingrid told Leana everything, Leana called Derick. So, Derick came.

Derick walked to the door and looked at Jared. “Jared, you start to kill people in public. You are

becoming more and more arrogant now. Do you think that you have the final say in entire

Washington?”

Jared saw Derick and frowned slightly. Then Jared sneered, “Derick, this is none of your business. The

Thornton family doesn’t welcome you. Get out of here!”

Derick sneered, “Do you think that I am willing to come to your place?”

After that, Derick looked at Gerald and said, “Gerald, have you saved them? If you have saved them,

let’s go directly!”

Gerald nodded calmly.

“I told you that you couldn’t leave today. I wasn’t slapped before. But now, I have been bullied by a

young man like you.” Jared stared at Gerald and then looked at Derick, “Derick, if it were any other

time, I would grant your wish and let him leave. But today, it is impossible. Otherwise, I would be

humiliated!”

Gerald sneered and said, “So what? I slapped your right cheek. Do you want me to slap your left cheek

again?”

Derick also said calmly, “I will forcibly take him away today. Who dare block me? Gerald, come out. I

will cripple whoever stops you, even you guys!”

Derick pointed at Edric, Vernon and the others.

Hearing Derick’s words, Vernon and the others looked shocked.

They did not expect that Derick was so resolute that he did not give them any room for negotiation

at all.

In fact, Gerald did not care. It was the fault of the Thornton family.

Cale was a two–timer. Jessica had shares in the Goldsun Group. Now, the Thornton family actually

wanted to take away Jessica’s shares at a cheap price. After Cale had a new lover, he did not care

about Jessica and Daphne. Seeing his new lover slap Jessica, Cale didn’t do anything. Cale was so

cruel.

Gerald’s action didn’t cross the line.

Of course, Gerald wanted to solve this matter as inconspicuously as possible. If the Washington Great

Four came and solved the matter, this was very good. If Jared refused to let them go out, Gerald would

fight with the entire Thornton family.

Gerald supported Daphne and Jessica and walked out of the door.

The Thornton family looked cold, but they were shocked by Derick’s threat. None of them dared to

block Gerald.

Walking past Jared, Kerr followed closely behind Gerald. Kerr looked a little nervous.

If Kerr came in to only make a scene, he didn’t care.,

However, Gerald directly slapped Jared. Kerr was extremely nervous.

Kerr was worried that the Thornton family would hold a grudge against him.

Following Gerald, all of a sudden, Kerr realized that Gerald had stopped in front of Jared. Kerr

trembled, and his legs almost went soft.

Gerald looked at Jared and said, “Regarding the matter of Goldsun Group, we will follow the process.

We can negotiate peacefully. If you refuse to negotiate but continue playing these dirty tricks, I don’t

mind slapping your left cheek.”

Jared’s face was extremely sullen.

Looking at Derick, who was standing not far away, Jared did not dare to hit Gerald. Jared could only

watch Gerald pass him.

Derick gave Jared a look, then turned around, and walked towards the entrance of the Thornton’s

house.

Watching them leave, Jared and the other Thornton family all looked cold.

As the most prominent family in Washington, they now suffered such a big loss due to Gerald. They

really could not accept it.

“Dad, are we really going to let them go just like that?” Edric gritted his teeth and said, “This is so

humiliating to our family. Moreover, since Kerr and the other three people saw it, they will definitely

spread it everywhere!”

“They all know about the consequences of telling this to others.” Jared let out a breath and said, “You

are right. This is humiliating to our family. We can’t let this go. But Derick is at the super level. We can’t

deal with Gerald in front of him!”

“Great–grandfather…” Edric gritted his teeth.

Jared glanced at Edric, and Edric instantly fell silent.

“There’s still a lot of time left!” Jared said calmly. Then Jared looked at Dave, who was not far away,

and said, “Dave, how much do you know about Gerald?”

Dave glanced at Riley and said, “Everything I know is from Riley. I don’t know the exact details!”

Jared glanced at Riley and then let out a sigh. “Investigate everything about Gerald, including how he

met Derick. Find out everything clearly! Within three days, I need all his information!”

Meanwhile, Gerald led a group of people out. After they walked outside, Gerald looked at Derick and

said, “Thank you, Mr. Jackson!”

“It’s not a big deal,” Derick said. Derick looked at Gerald with a complicated expression and said, “I

should thank you. However, Leana and I have some things to do today, so I can’t treat you to a meal. I

will invite you to my house and treat you to a good meal next time.”

Gerald nodded and said, “Okay!”

“Then we will leave first.” Derick looked at Leana and said, “Leana, let’s go!”

After the two of them left, Kerr let out a sigh of relief. Kerr said to Colby and the others beside him,

“Hey, you three are such cowards. Why have you only arrived now? Did you see how heroic I was with

Gerald just now?”

“Forget it, I won’t brag to you guys. I’m afraid that you guys will feel inferior. In short, I remained calm

and scolded Jared face to face…” said Kerr shamelessly as he stood next to Colby and the

others.

Gerald was speechless. He thought, Kerr is quite good at showing off.

After that, Kerr secretly glanced at Gerald and the others and said, “Well, Gerald, if there is nothing

else, we will leave first.”

“Well, thank you. I will treat you to a meal another day.” Gerald smiled at the four of them.

“This is nothing. We Washington Great Four can’t stand this kind of bullying. It is our rule to fight

against injustice!” Kerr said.

Gerald was in no mood to talk to Kerr. Gerald thought, he’s good at bragging. How could they fight against injustice? They have bullied so many people.

After the four of them left, Jessica looked at Gerald with a complicated expression and said, “Gerald…

Thank you.”

Jessica’s eyes were indeed a little complicated.

Since she met Gerald, Jessica had seen too many miracles on Gerald.
