Chapter 485 Return to Washington
Gerald did not know that those recluse families planned to look for him for an explanation. Of course, even if Gerald knew, he
would not take it seriously.
And even if the people of those three families did not look for Gerald for trouble, Gerald would still find a chance to go to them to
warn them.
Since the thing had already happened, Gerald naturally had to clean up the mess.
At night, Belinda took Gerald to some local food stalls that she remembered. Many of them were old stalls. The food tasted quite
good. Then, the two of them went to see the night scene as if they were two ordinary travelers.
It was not until early in the morning that Belinda and Gerald returned to the hotel.
Of course, Belinda and Gerald still slept separately.
The next day, Gerald drove to find Cayden. After Gerald returned the car key to Cayden, Cayden asked someone to send Gerald
to the airport. Then, Gerald and Belinda separated into two groups. Gerald went to Washington, while Belinda returned to
Sacramento.
In Sacramento, Valery and the others were quite busy during this time. After all, they had to manage more than 1,600 people.
The house Valery arranged for Roger and his wife was just an ordinary house. Roger and his wife went directly to the Universe
Group to work. Of course, their positions were the same as Mason’s. They didn’t need to work very hard, but their salaries were
quite high.
Jenna’s enrollment procedures were also beginning to be handled.
Since Jenna had come out of Sin City, and she was still a kid, she naturally had to play with her peers.
It was Jenna’s dream to study at school and make friends of her age.
But Gerald didn’t need to take care of those things. He just let Valery and the others handle those issues. At this time, Gerald
had already landed in Washington.
It was already October. It was already a little cold in Washington in October. Gerald wore a hoodie and passed through the
airport. Just as he stepped out of the airport, he saw a woman in a dress standing next to a car with sunglasses on her face.
After seeing Gerald come out, that woman took the initiative to wave at Gerald.
The dress showed that woman’s curvy figure to the fullest.
She was Nova.
Before Gerald came to Washington, he had communicated with Nova. Nova said she could come to the airport to pick Gerald up,
and Gerald naturally agreed.
After Gerald approached, Nova took off her glasses, smiled sweetly, and said in a gentle voice, “Long time no see! You are
already ranked third on the Sun List now! It seems that my grandfather made the right decision.”
The news of Gerald being ranked third on the Sun List had spread throughout the entire underground world. Of course, not many
people knew Gerald. They only knew Gerald’s name.
“I was just lucky,” Gerald said as he rubbed his nose.
“Alright. Let’s get in the car first. Where are we going for lunch?” Nova asked.
“Let’s go to Quadrity!” Gerald said. “I have something to do over there!”
When Gerald left Sin City, Charles gave him a letter and asked him to give it to Kaven. Therefore, Gerald had to visit Kaven after
he came to Washington.
Nova’nodded with a smile. “OK!”
Nova sat in the driver’s seat. She did not start the car. Instead, she leaned to the side and fumbled in front of the passenger seat.
Because of the position, Gerald could smell a charming fragrance from Nova’s body.
Soon, Nova took out a bag of cloth and threw it to Gerald. “This is my gift for you!”
Gerald was speechless. He looked at the bag, and then his expression changed. He took out a package from the bag and
opened it. Then, he said in surprise, “Dragon Bones?”
Nova smiled and said, “How is it? Are you touched?”
Gerald counted and found that there were five Dragon Bones in it. He took a deep breath and asked, “Where did you get them?”
Nova muttered, “Humph! I know you need them. I have been collecting them for you all the time. I spent a lot of money to get
these five Dragon Bones. You have to be responsible for me in the future!”
“Eh!” Gerald curled his lips.
Gerald naturally didn’t believe Nova’s words. However, if Gerald could absorb these five bones all within this month, his strength
would rise to a certain extent.
Ever since Gerald absorbed those five bones in Sin City, his speed of absorbing the Dragon Bones had slowed down. Moreover,
the effect of the Dragon Bones wasn’t as terrifying as they were in the beginning.
However, if Gerald absorbed these five bones this time, he felt that if he faced Davis again, he would
be able to easily defeat Davis even if he didn’t use Death Storm.
At that time, Gerald would truly have a strength that was comparable to Blaine’s!
Gerald let out a breath and said, “By the way, I actually have a question that I want to ask you. What kind of person is your
grandfather? The information about him was very little, even in the underground world and the Night Watch.”
After Gerald found out about Jaden, he called Valery and asked her to investigate Jaden.
There was very little information about Jaden in the Night Watch. Even his appearance was unknown.
The person Gerald met last time was not Jaden.
Jaden was very mysterious. To a certain extent, Gerald felt that Jaden was even more mysterious than Dr. T.
“My grandfather!” Nova smiled. “He is quite low-key. Anyway, he doesn’t do anything bad.”
Nova didn’t seem to have any intention of telling Gerald. After she finished speaking, a smile appeared on her face. She started
the car and said, “Oh, by the way, since you’ve returned to Washington, you will need to be by my side for a period of time in the
future. After all, you promised my grandfather that when the war starts, you will protect me.”
Gerald coughed. He had already imagined Valery’s expression when she saw him return with such a beautiful woman by his
side.
Of course, Theo would probably be very excited.
But Gerald couldn’t refuse. After all, he had already made his promise. Besides, since Nova gave Gerald five Dragon Bones,
Gerald had no reason to refuse her. Gerald nodded and said, “No problem. When I leave Washington, you can follow me.”
Nova smiled.
The car started. Gerald looked outside through the window. Suddenly, he saw a poster hanging on the big screen not far away.
On the poster, there was a beautiful woman with a smile on her face.
It was Adriana, who Gerald had saved before. Later, Gerald introduced Adriana to Leandro and asked her to act in Leandro’s
movie.
“Tsk, tsk. You men are really born with bad genes. You can’t walk away when you see a beautiful woman. I am such a beautiful
woman sitting next to you. Why are you still looking around?” Nova smiled. “What? You like Adriana?”
Gerald sighed and said, “What are you thinking about?”
“Aren’t you very familiar with Kerr? Kerr is quite famous in the entertainment industry. You can ask for Adriana’s contact
information through him. But now, Adriana is very popular. Her new movie is brilliant. The box office is now more than 500 million
dollars, and it’s hitting theaters now,” Nova said.
“It’s not what you’re thinking. Adriana and I know each other. I was just a little surprised,” Gerald smiled.
Gerald had many acquaintances in Washington, such as Daphne, Ingrid, Leana, and so on.
Gerald touched his nose and muttered, “I wonder if Wesley and Leila have gotten used to living in Washington.”
Just as Gerald was thinking, Nova suddenly frowned and stepped on the brakes!
Because of inertia, Gerald suddenly fell forward. Fortunately, he was wearing a seat belt and did not fly out.
