Slumdog billionaire husband novel (Gerald Kenneth)

Chapter 280

Chapter 280 The Strange Atmosphere in the Frey Family

Gerald did not know what had happened on the distant island. After one entered Sin City, he would

completely lose contact with the outside world. The conditions to come out of Sin City were also quite

harsh.

Since Gerald had nothing to do, he watched the television for the entire afternoon in the living room of

his home. Leana slept for the entire afternoon. She was still asleep until 5:30 p.m.

At 5:30 in the afternoon, Gerald glanced at the room where Leana was sleeping and frowned.

Gerald wrote a note and placed it on the coffee table. It read, “I’m going out. Go find something to eat

when you wake up.”

After that, Gerald went to the garage and drove to Arthur’s house.

After arriving at Arthur’s house, Monica ran over and hugged Gerald.

Monica seemed to like Gerald very much. In her memory, Gerald was like a super hero, and that scene

had been deeply engraved in her mind.

“Gerald, you said that you would play with me when you were free, but for so many days, you never

even contacted me. You don’t reply to the messages I send you either,” Monica pouted and said.

Gerald rubbed Monica’s head and said, “I’ve been busy recently.”

Monica looked into the room with great care and asked, “Are you on a mission?”

“Yes,” Gerald nodded and said, “you have to keep it a secret. Let’s go in and meet your parents.”

“Okay!” Monica took Gerald’s hand and led him to the villa.

In the villa hall, Colby was sitting on the sofa playing with his mobile phone. Arthur was sitting on the

side with a book and a pair of glasses. He was reading the book.

In addition, there was a well–maintained woman. She glanced at Gerald. She obviously knew that

Gerald would come in the evening. However, when she saw Monica holding Gerald’s hand, she

frowned slightly and said, “Monica, you are sixteen years old now. You are already a big girl. How can

you be so close to a boy so casually? Come and sit down.”

“I see.” Monica pouted and let go of Gerald’s hand.

This woman was the mother of Monica and Colby.

Although the woman was old, she was still quite beautiful.

Obviously, she was a relatively strict person, especially in terms of teaching children.

Gerald could not help but glance at Colby beside him.

Gerald did not know how Colby became one member of the Washington Great Four.

At this time, Arthur closed the book and said with a smile, “Gerald, you are here! The food is ready.

Let’s go to dinner.”

The five of them sat down at the table.

When they reached the dining table, Arthur handed Gerald a box and said, “This is what you want. By

the way, since you will stay in Washington, you can come to our house more often. Monica often

remembers you in our talks.”

“That’s right. Our house is quite big anyway. Gerald, why don’t you live in our house in the future?”

Monica said quickly.

Gerald shook his head and said, “It’s not convenient for me to live here.”

The woman had always been unsmiling. When she heard their conversation, she raised her head and

looked coldly at Arthur and Monica. Arthur trembled instinctively and then stopped talking about this

matter.

Gerald felt it was somewhat funny.

Arthur, in Washington and even in the whole country, was the top entrepreneur. But now it seemed that

Arthur seemed to be henpecked.

Because Monica’s mother was there, Gerald felt a bit uncomfortable while eating.

Gerald even regretted coming over to eat. Previously, he had not dealt with this woman. Moreover, he

usually got along with Valery and the others very casually. For a moment, he felt the atmosphere was

very strange.

During the meal, there was almost no communication. Colby was also well–behaved.

After eating, Arthur looked at Gerald somewhat awkwardly and said, “Colby, you can go out to have fun

with Monica and Gerald.”

Colby’s eyes lit up. He said, “Okay!”

Colby’s mother said at this time, “You have to come back before 12!”

“OK!” Colby quickly nodded and winked at Gerald.

Gerald also wanted to leave. He said goodbye to Colby’s parents. Before leaving, Gerald thought of

something and looked at Arthur, saying, “By the way, let’s sign the contract about the shares first.”

“We don’t need to rush to do that,” Arthur said, “let Colby and Monica take you out to have fun.”

Gerald nodded and said, “Alright.”

The three of them went out, put on their shoes, and walked out. Colby wiped his forehead and said,

“I’m finally out. Just now the atmosphere is almost suffocating me.”

Gerald looked at Colby strangely and asked, “Is the atmosphere in your family so depressing?”

Colby sighed and said, “Well, it can’t be helped.”

After that, Colby whispered to Gerald, “My dad went to a lot of trouble to get my mom to become his

wife. My mom didn’t like my dad before, but our family was rich, so my mom’s family forced my mom to

marry my dad. After decades, my mom got used to the marriage, but she was still not satisfied with my

dad. To put it simply, my dad got everything but my mom’s love.”

“Colby, don’t talk nonsense!” Monica quickly said, “in fact, what Colby said is only one aspect of the

reason why our family is like this. The main reason is because of Colby. My mother used to not care

too much about the family, and so Colby became relatively undisciplined. You also know that he is one

member of the Washington Great Four. Then my mother thought she didn’t discipline Colby properly,

and that’s why she started to become the way she is now.”

Colby scratched his head awkwardly and said, “Well, I haven’t had a good time for too long. It was not

easy for me to come out at night. Monica, you can take Gerald to have fun. I will go to find Kerr and the

others.”

“Come back early and drink less. If Mom finds out, you will be beaten again,” Monica quickly reminded

Colby.

“Getting beaten is nothing!” Colby opened a car, got in, and drove away.

Seeing Colby like that, Monica said speechlessly, “Don’t worry about Colby. He is just like that.

Hearing their words, Gerald was surprised.

This was the marriage between rich and powerful families. Of course, in this world, there were not

many people who could get married because of love. Many people got married only because their

spouse was suitable for them.

Gerald could not help but think of Ingrid. Gerald wondered what kind of scene it would be if Ingrid

married Leo.

“Gerald, where are we going to have fun?” Just as Gerald was thinking about it, Monica tilted her head

and asked.

“What do you want to do?” Gerald asked.

“Anything will do. As long as you are with me, it will be fine. It is not easy for me to meet you. After this

time, I don’t know when you will come to Washington again,” Monica pouted and said.

Gerald didn’t know what to answer.

In fact, Gerald regarded Monica as his sister. Gerald pondered for a moment and said, “Then let’s go This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

shopping in the mall and watch a movie. Then we can go to eat kebab.”

“Okay!” Monica said excitedly, “I really want to eat kebab, but my mom doesn’t allow me to eat it. She

said it’s unhealthy.”
