Chapter 5 Remember Your Words

“You are so unreasonable.” Trevon, who was at the side, couldn’t stand it anymore.

Vivian glanced at him and whispered, “What has it got to do with you?”

Trevon wanted to say something, but Gerald stopped him. Gerald looked at Vivian and said, “I don’t bother arguing with you. Remember, all of you will regret it in the future, including you, Irene, and your relatives!”

“Regret? About what? Losing you, a worker working your ass off on a construction site every day?” Vivian said

disdainfully.

Gerald didn’t want to waste his time on her. He let out a breath and said, “Trevon, let’s go!”

Seeing that Gerald was about to leave, Vivian quickly scolded, “Stop right there! My motorcycle was wrecked. You’ll have to pay for it. And pick these papers on the ground up.”

Gerald was anxious. He thought, people like you just think of me as a pushover, don’t you?

He slowly let out a breath, ignored Vivian, turned, and left with Trevon.

“Humph! Loser!” looking at Gerald’s back, Vivian curled her lips and said disdainfully.

After walking for a while, Trevon said helplessly, “Come to think of it, are you going to let it slide just like that?”

“I did my best to take care of them. I worked my ass off earning money, and when I was back home, I had to cook for them and do chores!” Anger flashed across Gerald’s face. He said, “And now, they kicked me away just like that… If something hadn’t happened, I would have slept on the construction site today. How could I have let it slide?”

Trevon sighed, “Maybe you should. Irene hooked up with Adriel. Adriel comes from a rich family in Los Angeles, and hasn’t Irene’s uncle opened a company as well? We are commoners, and we are no match for them.”

Trevon was telling the truth. Irene’s uncle opened a company, but it was not very big.

Gerald once proposed to go to Irene’s uncle’s company to work, but Irene’s uncle thought that Gerald could do nothing and would only accept Gerald as a security guard there. The salary was too low to support Irene and Mary. That was why Gerald came to the construction site.

Gerald curled his lips and did not say anything!

Trevon lived alone. He rented a single room in the old district of Los Angeles. Like Gerald, Trevon didn’t lead a

satisfying life. On the contrary, his life was worse.

Trevon was born in the countryside and was married and had a kid when he was 20 years old.

Later, when he came to the city, his wife left, and he hadn’t heard from her since then. The worst part was that his

son, Liam Nott, was diagnosed with a congenital disease and had to undergo chemo once a month.

Trevon was thin, but he worked the hardest since Liam might have died otherwise.

When Trevon and Gerald got back to Trevon’s place, Trevon changed his clothes and said, “You can stay here. I’ll go to school to pick up Liam for his chemo. Fix something for yourself.”
