Chapter 271 You Can Have One Now If You Want
Keira was an office worker, and to some extent, she was a workaholic.
Working overtime was a common thing for her.
At the entrance of the bank, Gerald saw Keira dressed in uniform from afar. He stopped the car and
rolled down the window, “Get in the car!”
Keira sat in the front passenger seat and said to Gerald, “You are really a busy person. In the past,
whether it was in Los Angeles or Sacramento, I didn’t have the feeling at all. At that time, I felt that you
just idled away all day long.”
Gerald coughed and said, “It’s just that all the things have been piled up recently. It can’t be helped. I
am really sorry. I should have treated you to a meal after you came to Washington.”
Keira said with a sweet smile, “It’s fine. I was just joking. In fact, I’ve been busy since I arrived in
Washington. I had to familiarize myself with the business here and liaise with my colleagues. I am quite
busy every day. But you are a rich man. You must buy me a big meal.”
“Sure.” Gerald smiled and said, “I have money. You can eat whatever you want.
“I heard you. Then I’ll pick the most expensive restaurant,” Keira said happily. Then she checked online
for a while. In the end, she chose a rather expensive restaurant and said, “Let’s go to this one then.”
Gerald nodded and said, “Okay!”
After Gerald keyed in the address, he drove Keira to the restaurant!
The restaurant was located in the center of Washington. Because it was relatively expensive, there
were not many people in the restaurant, but most of the people who came here were relatively rich
people in Washington.

“Yes!” Keira nodded.
The beautiful waitress said, “This way, please!”
They were brought to a seat near the window and sat down by the window. After Keira ordered, she
said, “Oh right, where have Audrey and the others been recently? It has been a long time since I
contacted her. She doesn’t reply to my messages or return my calls.”
Gerald was speechless. After Audrey went to Night Watch, she had probably been training.
Now that she had gone to Sin City, there was no way she could contact anyone outside Sin City.
Gerald smiled and said, “Audrey has gone to a place with her father. For the time being, she can’t
contact anyone.”
“You know that?” Keira asked.
“Yeah!” Gerald nodded.
“Can’t you tell me about it?” Keira asked further.
In Keira’s eyes, Gerald was quite mysterious.
Gerald nodded and said, “No!”
“Alright, then I’ll ask no more,” Keira said with a smile, “Oh right, I heard that your ex–wife had gone to
work at Audrey’s house?”
“How did you know that?” Gerald asked in surprise.
“By accident.” Keira said, “How are you doing? Have you moved on?”
“Well…” Gerald scratched his head and said, “About that, there’s actually nothing to speak of. At that
time, you know, I didn’t live well when she and I were married. Back then, I lost my memory.
After I regained my memory, I’ve been composed and there’s nothing I can’t get over with.”
Keira looked at Gerald happily and said, “That’s true. That kind of woman is really not worth
remembering. What about the future? Are you not going to see anyone else?”
“Just let nature take its course then,” Gerald said with a smile.
Keira blushed slightly, then looked at Gerald and said, “You can have one now if you want.”
Gerald was stunned for a moment. He was not stupid, so he naturally understood what Keira was
implying!
In fact, Keira’s personality and demeanor were all very good. She would be a good choice if he wanted
to remarry.
However, Gerald knew his own situation. He knew that the war was coming, and he could not let
Blaine stab him and die.
Therefore, when the time came, he would definitely stand up and face everything. He really had not
considered having a relationship, except for having needs.
Keira saw that Gerald was a little hesitant, and a smile appeared on her face. She said, “Look how
scared you are. I was just teasing you.”
As she spoke, she lowered her head slightly, and a trace of disappointment flashed through her eyes.
At this time, the food they ordered was served.
“Eh, Keira!” At this moment, a voice rang in their ears.
The two of them looked up and saw a young man with his hair combed back standing on the side. He
looked at Keira curiously and said, “You’re here to eat too? Is this your boyfriend?”
Keira frowned slightly when she saw this person. Then, she smiled and said, “This is my boyfriend.”
As he spoke, she said to Gerald, “This is a client of our bank, Aron Leigh. He is a young entrepreneur
from Washington, who is a software developer.”

guy to brush me off because I just confessed my feelings for you.”
Gerald looked at Keira, dumbstruck.
Keira had only been in Washington for such a short time, but someone had already confessed to her.
However, it made sense anyway. Keira was a top beauty, and she was single. Her personality was also
very good. This kind of woman was attractive indeed.
“That’s so hilarious. You bumped into me and my girlfriend eating here. How can you say Keira got a
man to brush you off?” Gerald curled his lips and said.
Anyway, it was not the first time that he had pretended to be Keira’s boyfriend. Gerald had already
been good at this.
“I know that you are here to eat, but you don’t look like someone who can afford a meal in this kind of
restaurant,” Aron said indifferently, “You are probably a friend of Keira, and then she asked you to eat
here only. Man, stop acting!”
“What’s wrong with my clothes? Does everyone have to write the word rich on their heads?” Gerald
asked disdainfully.
Aron chuckled and said, “Indeed, there is no need to write it on the face. It is just that many things can
still be seen.”
A
As he spoke, he directly ignored Gerald and snapped his fingers. “Waiter!”
A waitress came over and said, “Mr. Leigh, what can I do for you?”
Aron said, “The bill for this table will be on me then.”
After saying that, he looked at Keira and said, “Keira, I am going to meet a client now, so I can’t eat
with you then. However, I must pay for this meal anyway. After all, the person opposite you may not be
able to afford it even if he wants to. I will ask you out another day!”
