Chapter 246
Qassie already understood what he meant when Desmond had given her that look back in the bar!
After all, he was the biggest investor in her husband’s bar.
“Beauty, I am coming for you!” Desmond was already drooling, and he immediately rushed forward impatiently.
At this moment, a loud bang sounded! Someone had broken down the hotel door.
Immediately after, a group of men dressed in black rushed in directly.
“D*mn it! What are you doing?!” Desmond was shocked and terrified, and he hurriedly shrank to the side.
However, he suddenly had a very flattering expression on his face when he saw Flynn walking into the hotel room.
“Oh! Brother Flynn, you are here! I was just wondering who it could be. Haha. Are you trying to start a dispute because you failed to recognize who I am?”
Flynn had a very big reputation and name on Mayberry Commercial Street. Aside from being Zack’s subordinate, Flynn was only beneath one person and above everyone else.
Desmond often came to Mayberry City. So, how could he possibly not know that Flynn was an extremely ruthless and domineering person in Mayberry City?
“F*ck you! You can just wait to die!” Flynn kicked Desmond aside with his leg.
After that, he looked at Cassandra who was drunk and in a daze on the bed. At this time, he came forward and said respectfully, “Miss Cassandra, you must have been frightened. Someone sent us here to save you!”
After he was done speaking, Flynn waved his hand.
Immediately afterward, a female doctor came forward. She gave Cassandra some medication before she started wiping Cassandra’s face with a wet towel.
In less than an hour, Cassandra had already sobered up.
“Thank you, Mr. Lexington!” Cassandra said in surprise as she tidied herself up and straightened out her clothes.
“Mr. Lexington, can I ask who sent you here to save me?” Cassandra stood up as she asked nervously and excitedly.
Of course she would be excited! The famous Flynn Lexington from Mayberry Commercial Street had actually rushed in with his group of men to save her at this critical moment.
Moreover, Flynn was so respectful toward her.
Someone had instigated him to come here, so this could only mean that the person who instructed him to come and save her had an even more important and powerful identity as compared to him.
As for her friend, Qassie, Cassandra could rule her off the list almost immediately.
Qassie was also to be blamed for this dangerous situation that she had gotten entangled in.
Besides, even if Qassie found her own conscience and tried to save her, she would not have been able to get Brother Flynn to treat her so respectfully.
Therefore, this was the first thing that Cassandra asked as soon as she sobered up.
Flynn replied, “Regarding his identity, I am in no right to say or give any comments at all. However, he has already told me what I should say if you were to ask me this question. He told me that he is just a person who likes to be ordinary!”
“Ahh? Could it be Brother Ordinary Man?” Cassandra could not stop herself from jumping up in excitement when she came to this sudden realization.
Wouldn’t a person who liked to be ordinary be none other than Brother Ordinary Man?
Moreover, she did not know any other powerful or influential people aside from Brother Ordinary Man!
This way, everything seemed to make perfect sense.
After all, wasn’t someone already guessing that Brother Ordinary Man was none other than Mr. Crawford?
Many people did not believe it.
However, judging from the situation at this moment, the only way Brother Ordinary Man could make Brother Flynn act like this was if he was the so-called Mr. Crawford.
This had to be the case. Brother Ordinary Man must have also come to the bar during its opening today, and he must have seen her getting bullied.
Thus, he had immediately made a call to send someone here to rescue her.
This had to be the case!
Cassandra’s desperation and panic seemed to have completely disappeared at this time.
“Miss Cassandra, I have been given instructions to send you back to school safely. You should go back first. As for the rest, you can just leave things to my subordinates to handle!”
Although he did not know what Cassandra’s relationship was to Mr. Crawford, since Mr. Crawford was willing to come forth and save her, it would not be wrong for him to be respectful and polite toward this woman. Flynn could not help but think this to himself.
“Okay, Mr. Lexington. Can you do me a favor before I leave?”
Flynn nodded as he said, “Just say it!”
“Can you ask your subordinate to lend me the electric baton in his hand?”
As she spoke, Cassandra glanced coldly at Desmond’s lower body. This made Desmond’s heart sink to the bottom of his stomach…
“You, you, you… what are you going to do?!”
Chapter 247
”Ahhh!”
A terrible scream resounded throughout the entire hotel. This was definitely the last time a man could actually scream in such a loud and powerful manner.
Yes, it would definitely be the last time for this man!
Right after that…
Cassandra grabbed her bag before she walked out of the hotel room.
There were two neat rows of bodyguards standing on both sides of the hotel corridor at this time.
Cassandra was already dazzled with excitement at this time.
She could even act recklessly after getting rescued. This felt really great!
When she retaliated against Desmond just now, he did not even dare to resist at all. He simply allowed her to electrocute him directly.
Moreover, after coming out of the hotel room, there were two rows of bodyguards standing there respectfully just to wait for her.
This was simply too great!
Was this what it felt like to have someone supporting her and backing her up? Was this what it felt like to be with Brother Ordinary Man?
Glory. Safety.
Any other ordinary person could not compare to him at all!
“Miss Cassandra, please get into the car!” As soon as they got to the door, Flynn personally opened the car door for Cassandra before inviting her to get into the car.
After that, the group of people left in a mighty force.
Where was Gerald?
In fact, Gerald had been following them just now. After Flynn had confirmed the room number and brought his men up with him, Gerald had almost followed the group of people up there.
However, Gerald had hesitated right then. If he really went up to the hotel room, he would definitely have to meet Cassandra face to face.
What would he possibly say if that happened?
Wouldn’t his identity as Mr. Crawford be exposed directly?
What was the point of him hiding his identity for so long then?
Besides, Flynn could handle all these things on his own.
It would not make sense for him to go up to the hotel room by himself. Therefore, Gerald simply explained it shortly to Flynn before he left in a cab right away.
This was the reason why Gerald asked Flynn to tell Cassandra all that.
“Mr. Lexington, thank you for everything you have done today. I will make sure to inform Brother Ordinary Man about your hard work!” At this time, Cassandra sat in the back seat with her legs crossed
as she spoke to Flynn who was sitting in the co-driver seat.
Her tone was no longer as polite or respectful as it was before.
Hehe. Flynn might be really awesome, but he was nothing more than Brother Ordinary Man’s subordinate. Wouldn’t she be lowering her own status if she continued being so respectful toward Flynn?
“Thank you, Miss Cassandra! Also, please inform Ger… Mr. Ordinary Man that we have already completed our task!” Flynn could only respond to Cassandra’s words.
After that, Cassandra hummed in reply. She had already forgotten to contact Ordinary Man because she had been too excited.
After opening her WeChat, she looked for Ordinary Man’s chat box so that she could chat with him.
[Brother Ordinary Man, were you the one who saved me? I love you! I love you to death!]
Gerald had not driven Cassandra’s car back, and he simply left her car at the bar. Gerald had already returned to his dormitory to rest, and he knew that Cassandra was fine after receiving her WeChat message. Therefore, he simply replied ‘yes’.
Cassandra typed this sentence excitedly before sending it immediately: [I am truly very touched and completely speechless because of everything that you have done for me today. Well, I will not say anything to thank you anymore, Brother Ordinary Man. Just remember that my goal in the future is to do everything that I can to become your woman!]
“F*ck!” Gerald, who was inside the dormitory, could not help but yell in shock.
“Ahh?! What is wrong, Gerald? Are you in a daze from your sleep?”
“No, it’s okay. I simply had a shock. Let’s go back to sleep! I am so tired!” Gerald fell asleep immediately after that.
“Miss Cassandra, we have already arrived at the university!” Flynn got out of the car to open the car door for Cassandra.
Cassandra snorted before getting out of the car.
She seemed to have completely forgotten about Gerald who had gone to the bar with her.
In fact, Cassandra had thought of Gerald when she was leaving the hotel.
Her car key was still with him too.
She initially planned to ask Flynn to send someone to the bar to pick him up.
However, after thinking about it, she felt that it would be extremely embarrassing for her to let other people find out that a lowly person like Gerald was her student.
Therefore, Cassandra did not say anything to notify Gerald and simply planned to send Gerald a text message to ask him to take a cab back after she had returned home.
Chapter 248
She decided not to drive her own car!
She was disgusted by it!
“Ouch!” Cassandra was hurt by something when she was trying to get down the car.
“What is this in your car? It hurts!” Cassandra complaint.
She picked up something from the seat under her and it was a powerbank!
“Why is there a dirty power bank in such a luxurious car? Throw it away already!” Cassandra was so furious at it that she almost forgot about her image as a pretty girl. She picked up the power bank and she was going to throw it into the rubbish bin but she stopped.
“Isn’t this mine?” Cassandra looked closely at it and realized it was the hundred dollarpowerbank that she bought recently! She was very certain that it was her power bank because there was a picture of her stuck onto it.
Cassandra did not even think about anything else when she saw her picture. She usually put her power bank in her car but Gerald needed to use the power bank and she lent it to him.
How did the powerbank get into this Roll-Royce? Did she leave it here by accident? But it was not possible! She did not even get anywhere near to Gerald today how could it be possible? Even if he were to return it to her, why did he have to leave it in the car sneakily? He could have just returned it to her. That only meant that she did not leave it in the car but somehow Gerald did…
Cassandra’s face turned white as she thought about it.
How did he get in this car?
What was his identity?
What’s going on…?
Cassandra was confused and her mind was ringing. “Hey, Mr. Lexington! Do you know who Gerald is?” Cassandra asked as she had some thoughts in her mind.
“Nope. Why?” Flynn answered immediately. When Cassandra shouted Gerald’s name, Flynn was nervous.
“Gerald is my student and he borrowed a power bank from me but I wasn’t sure why it was in your car.”
“You’re right. How could it be in my car when you already lend it to him?” Flynn gulped nervously.
Why was it here?
Gerald must have left it in the car by accident before he left!
“I’m asking you, Mr. Lexington!” Cassandra really wanted to find out.
“I remember now! We heard that you were in trouble at the bar just now but I’ve not seen you before and someone said he knew what you look like so he gave me the power bank with your face on it…”
Flynn was a very honest man. It was tough for him to lie with a straight face.
“Okay! I understand!”
Cassandra looked at her power bank and thought for a while. Maybe it was Gerald that gave him.
After Flynn went off, Cassandra went upstairs.
But the more she thought about it, the more something was not right. Flynn sounded like he was lying, especially in the last part of his speech was very suspicious.
It was not right!
Chapter 249
It was not right!
Cassandra realized what Flynn said was impossible. He said he needed to find out how she looked but he could have had many other ways. In fact was it really necessary for him to find out how she looked?
Cassandra knew the entire process of how Flynn saved her. She knew that Flynn found out where she was through those subordinates and he came straight to the room to rescue her so why did he have to find out how she looked?
Furthermore, how did the Ordinary Man find out? The Ordinary Man did not like those kinds of places and the only person that knew about her location was Gerald!
What the fuck!
Cassandra could not calm down. Does that mean that Gerald was the Ordinary Man?
Cassandra laughed.
How is it even possible!
What was she thinking?
There must be some misunderstanding here. Cassandra shall clarify it from Gerald again the next day.
Cassandra finally calmed herself down and let off of that matter temporarily.
The next day was a Saturday and Gerald woke up slightly late. He slept in until his phone rang. It was Elena.
It has been a few days since they had spoken to each other. What does she want to do with me?
Gerald still picked up the phone out of curiosity. “Gerald, are you busy?” Elena asked softly.
“I’m not. What is it?” Gerald asked.
“Remember the last time you acted as my boyfriend to help me? My aunt from Rivington City and some other relatives are coming over to Mayberry to visit my father today!”
“But my dad will be having meetings for these two days and I’ll be accompanying them!” Elena kept on talking.
“Then you should keep them company! If you plan to visit Wayfair Mountain Entertainment, I can get you and your family a luxurious suite!” Gerald answered.
Even though there were some misunderstandings between them at first when they met and Elena had beaten him up before. However, after everything that they had been through, they had become friends. novelbin
Gerald did not mind at all but that was not what Elena meant.
“Gerald, I’m not asking you to arrange a room for us. I’m trying to ask if you have the time to accompany me and families to go around town?”
“Accompany them? Please don’t tell me you want me to continue acting as your boyfriend. Elena, I’ve had enough for the last time okay! Like seriously, please don’t do this to me!” Gerald rejected her request.
Chapter 250
Gerald was trying his best to avoid ideas like these nowadays.
Nothing personal but it was all for Mila. Ever since he decided to date Mila, he had to think about her for every decision he made.
But Elena started crying on the other end of the phone.
“Okay…Gerald. I understand what you mean, how can I make you do so much for me right? It’s just my aunt has told my relatives about you and they all really want to meet you! It’s okay, I’ll just tell them you’re not my boyfriend and I don’t deserve to be your girlfriend…I shouldn’t trouble you either!” Elena said as she sobbed.
Gerald did not know what to do. He could never stand a girl crying in front of him especially when it was because of him.
Gerald sighed and said, “Please stop crying. I’ll do it. Send me a location and I’ll go meet you!”
“You’re the best, Gerald! I love you so much!” Elena immediately stopped crying.
Gerald only promised Elena to put an end to the story. Since he was the one that helped her from the start, he should take the responsibility to end things with her!
Gerald changed and he decided to call a taxi to meet with Elena because it was quite late and there were going to be many people. He met up with Elena first and arranged a car from Elena’s family to pick up her relatives at the Mayberry Airport.
Meanwhile at the airport, there were eight to nine people waiting for them. Some were middle-aged and some were young and pretty.
“What is going on, Aunt Larson? Didn’t you tell Elena we will be arriving at nine thirty, it has been an hour! Why isn’t she here yet?”
“Be patient, Carmen. Maybe Elena was busy. I called them just now. They should be reaching soon. Don’t worry!”
“It was so different from the last time we were here. There must be many new attractions around! Anyways, didn’t you say Elena brought her boyfriend to pay you a visit the last time, Ruby? How was the boy? I don’t understand what you mean when you say he’s not decent enough through the phone!” A lady that looked like Ruby Larson asked.
She’s Harriet Larson, Ruby Larson’s sister. She had moved to the north ever since got married. She was the manager at a Security Agency and she makes a few hundred thousands of dollars each year.
“Don’t even mention that poor brat! Just the thought of him makes me so mad! That person just won some small lottery and he was as arrogant as a peacock! He was just a poor brat to start with and he dared to flirt with Elena! I wanted to introduce my best friend’s son to her, Dickson but…sigh!”
Ruby was so mad when Gerald came into the topic. She would never allow him to be part of the Larsons.
“Amber probably thinks that he’s too disgusting. She wouldn’t come no matter how hard we asked her. Ever since he visited us and went to that party with them, Amber hasn’t been fine. She wouldn’t say a single word no matter how hard we asked her!”
Ruby sighed. “She was probably shocked by how disgusting that poor brat was!”
“Hahaha! Ruby, you have become really mean these days. How could you talk about a child like that? But I would really love to meet this Gerald. It’s hard to imagine how disgusting he can be!” Scarlet laughed bitterly.
“Of course! He can’t even compete with all my nieces’ husbands over here!”
There were three ladies and three men standing beside Harriet.
One of the girls looked like she was in her mid 20 and the two other girls were around Elena’s age. They were all decent looking and fair but their eyes were fierce and arrogant.
They were all Elena’s cousins and beside them were their boyfriends. The two younger ones were Harriet’s daughter and the older one was Harriet’s husband’s niece. They were all here for vacation.
“How dare you say aunt is mean, mom! Is there anyone meaner than you? My sister’s ex-boyfriend almost killed himself because of your insults!” The youngest and the most fashionable girl said.
“Don’t you talk to me like that, you little rascal! I’ll slap you if you ever say that I’m mean again. I was just being honest. He thought he could marry my daughter with just a multi million dollar company? Your father’s company alone is worth more than that!” Harriet sneered. She looked extra arrogant with those sunglasses.
Everyone laughed.
“Elena is here!” One of the girls pointed at the gate as Gerald and Elena walked toward them…
