”You know?” Silas and the others asked in surprise.
“Yes!” Alice replied in certainty. She continued, “This is a luxury sports car that has been parked at the small park near Mayberry University. There have also been rumors that this car was bought by Mr. Crawford. After that, there were rumors stating that this car had been bought by a mysterious local tycoon, Ordinary Man, who is also a student in the Department of Language and Literature in our university. Some people also said that Ordinary Man is actually Mr. Crawford’s online nickname!”
“In that case, this car should be parked at our school! Why would the local tycoon, Ordinary Man, park his car here?”
“This is the villa bought by Mr. Crawford!” Alice frowned as she said in disbelief.
Yes. Anyone else could believe that Gerald was Mr. Crawford and it would mean nothing to them at all.
However, Alice could not believe it.
She was scared. She was especially frightened.
When she was still in the villa just now, she had been wracking her brains to figure out how she could remove Gerald entirely from this equation.
She only needed one reason to avoid this fact, and Silas had finally come up with a reason for that.
However, how could things be explained now?
Ordinary Man’s car was parked here, and it was rumored that he was Mr. Crawford. Now, it was almost certainly sure that Ordinary Man was truly Mr. Crawford!
Rita had already mentioned that Mr. Crawford was here.
The only other person who had been here throughout the entire night was none other than Gerald!
The local tycoon, Ordinary Man, was from the Department of Language and Literature, and Gerald was also from the Department of Language and Literature!
Alice could feel her breathing increase rapidly.
Wouldn’t this mean that Gerald was better than Silas then?
Since Gerald was someone she despised, he had to always be a scumbag! Alice would certainly not be able to accept it if Gerald gained a good reputation!
Thus, she was yelling like a crazy person at this time.
“D*mn it! Alice, are you crazy?” Silas replied in a somewhat displeased manner.
Although the condition offered by Alice was really very attractive and even if he had always been a romantic who was very willful, he was not stupid!
This Gerald could very likely be Mr. Crawford and she still wanted him to teach Gerald a lesson? He might not even be able to keep his own tongue if he cursed at him!
Alice was about to cry as she yelled, “I don’t care! Gerald can’t possibly be Mr. Crawford. Didn’t you say that he is probably just a stalker? How could he possibly be Mr. Crawford? How could that be possible? Moreover, he has always been famous as the pathetic pauper in our school!”
