Chapter 192 The Male Friend

Eddie was in a bad mood. He took out his phone and dialed a number.

Someone answered the phone quickly. “Hello. What’s wrong?”

Eddie replied, “Hello, Mr. Maddox. When Ingrid was in Sacramento, she met a man called Gerald. At that

time, they had a good relationship. I privately warned him to stop interacting with Ingrid. However, I did

not expect Gerald to come to Washington and represent Wisdom Group. They get the chance to meet

each other again.”

“Representing Wisdom Group?” Irvin frowned. “What’s Gerald’s background?”

“When I was in Sacramento, I checked his information. Gerald used to be a member of the Kenneth

family. He was imprisoned for nine years because of something, and it seemed that he was rescued by

Leandro at last. When Leandro and the Kenneth Family were in a game, Gerald’s matter became the last

thing to bring down the Kenneth family. Now the Kenneth family is greatly hurt, and Holden and Cole

seem to be in prison,” Eddie said honestly. “I don’t think Gerald is a big shot, but he should have a good

relationship with Leandro. The Universe Group and Wisdom Group are inextricably linked. I think Gerald

knew that Wisdom Group was going to cooperate with us. Thus, he asked Leandro to let him be the

representative.

“Should we stop cooperation with Wisdom Group? It seems that Ingrid has a good impression of

Gerald,” Eddie said.

Irvin said calmly, “No. This time, most of the companies that Ingrid’s studio cooperates with are the

industries under the control of Night Watch. They sent one guy to protect Ingrid. To hide that guy’s

identity, they have not said which company he belongs to. What if Gerald is that guy?”

Eddie said peacefully, “It’s impossible. Unless the person sent by Night Watch is above the super level, I

should be able to feel his existence.”

“Do you think Night Watch will send people of ‘the super level‘ to protect Ingrid?” Eddie frowned.

There was a long silence before Irvin said, “In short, it is better not to stop cooperation. Wisdom Group

belongs to Night Watch. We need the help of Night Watch this time, but… if there is a chance, you can

make some difficulties for Gerald.”

“Got it,” Eddie answered, let out a breath, and sneered.

After hanging up the phone, Eddie dialed another phone number and said, “Hi, Warren. Call a few people

over.”

On the other end of the line, Warren said happily, “Do you mean people of the underground world?”

Eddie said, “No. I will send you the details on Line later.”

“Okay, Mr. Audley,” Warren said with an ingratiating smile.

Gerald did not know about all this. He sat in Wang Ingrid’s office and talked to Ingrid.

“Gerald, you are so polite. You said before that you would call me after you came to Washington. I just

called Daphne. Daphne said that you have been in Washington for almost a week,” Ingrid said with

complaint.

Gerald touched his nose and said, “I have been a little busy recently. You may feel surprised now, right?”

“Bah. You’re so glib,” Ingrid said. “Gerald, do you think that I’m qualified to be a Watchman? I have now

reached the intermediate level.”

Gerald nodded and said, “Well, based on your strength alone, you have already carried out missions. It’s

just that the real war of Night Watch is different from what you think. Moreover, you don’t know how to

use weapons. You have to learn the fighting mode of Night Watch again.”

“Really?” Ingrid was extremely excited.

Gerald said, “Night Watch is not as good as you think. Just stay at home and enjoy the peace. It’s so

precious.”

“I want to be a heroine. You don’t understand it.” Ingrid curled her lips and shook her head.

Then Ingrid began to ask about Night Watch.

They stayed here until Ingrid got off work in the afternoon. They also had lunch here together.

After work, Ingrid wanted to have dinner with Gerald, but Eddie called her. Gerald, on the other hand,

was going to eat with Catherine.

After Ingrid and Eddie left, Gerald looked at Catherine and asked, “Where are we going to eat?”

“I booked a restaurant. By the way, I have two friends who will come over. You don’t mind it, do you?

Since I rarely treat you, I just want to take them with me,” Catherine said.

Catherine was quite frugal usually. Her family was poor.

Gerald nodded. “It’s alright.”

They got into the car and drove towards the restaurant. In the car, Catherine turned to look at -Gerald

and asked, “Gerald, are you familiar with Ingrid?”

“Ingrid is younger than you. She’s still studying at university. It’s strange for you to call her Ms. Maddox,”

Gerald smiled. “But we do know each other. I was in Sacramento before, and she studied

in Sacramento. We met there.”

Catherine pouted and said, “Alright.”

Soon, they arrived at a relatively high–end restaurant. After parking the car, the two of them walked

towards the restaurant.

At this time, a man and a woman were standing at the entrance.

The man had closely cropped hair, but he was surprisingly handsome. The woman had an ordinary

appearance.

“Are you Gerald? Catherine has been talking about you every day.” Just as Gerald walked over, woman

said happily, “You don’t know how difficult it is for Catherine to treat us. This time, Catherine earned 100

thousand dollars. Originally, she wanted to treat us alone, but she has been dragging it all the time. She

has been waiting for your comeback.”

Catherine suddenly turned a red face. It was unknown whether it was because of Gerald or the

woman’s teasing.

“Don’t talk nonsense,” Catherine quickly said. “Gerald, let me introduce them to you. They are all my best

friends. This is Melody Colin. This is Colt Fred.”

“Best friend?” Gerald felt it was a little weird.

Gerald never had a good impression of a woman’s male friend.

However, this was Catherine’s private life. Gerald and Catherine were far from being particularly familiar

with each other. At most, they were just partners at work. Gerald would not interfere with Catherine’s

private life.

Gerald nodded at the two of them and said, “I’m Gerald Kenneth.”

“OK, let’s go in first,” Catherine said.

The four of them walked into the restaurant. It was a western restaurant. After they entered, they found a

seat and sat down. The waiter handed them the menu.

Melody laughed and said, “You earned 100 thousand dollars this time. We have to eat something

expensive.”

“Order anything you like,” Catherine said with a smile.

“Oh, I have never seen you so generous before,” Melody chuckled.

Gerald looked at Melody with great interest. Although Melody was not particularly beautiful, she seemed

to be good. Melody was candid, but Colt was so quiet.

Gerald looked at the menu. Suddenly, he slightly frowned as he glanced at the distance.

At the door, Gerald saw a few men walk in. After entering, they did not find a place to sit down.

Instead, they looked around and they then found Gerald.

Gerald felt their gazes.

They knew Gerald, and they were coming to find Gerald.

Gerald thought, are they sent by Eddie or Chad?

In Gerald’s mind, he felt that Eddie was the black hand.

These people looked like ordinary people. Chad was beaten up by Gerald not long ago, so Chad should

not look for ordinary people to deal with Gerald.

Gerald sneered inwardly, the Maddox family is so bold.

However, Gerald did not care about them at all. After ordering, Gerald handed the menu to the waiter.

“Catherine.” At the same time, a surprised voice rang out not far from them.

Gerald looked over. Not far from them, Jeff was sitting there. Opposite Jeff sat a young man wearing

a trendy card. The young man also wore an expensive watch on his wrist.
