Seven days later.
On a construction site in a typical small area located in Salford Province.
“Timely salary shared! You, twenty-three dollars! Save carefully!”
"You, fourteen dollars!"
An overweight foreman with a perfectly round stomach was handing out daily wages to several men and women in their fifties.
Among them stood a young man, who stuck out like a sore thumb.
Others receive twenty-three dollars as their daily wage.
However, when it was the young man's turn, he only received fourteen dollars.
The foreman spits his finger while counting the cash to make sure the amount is correct.
"wait. Didn't we agree on this matter before coming here? You don't have to pay me twenty-three dollars a day, but don't we only pay sixteen dollars a day?” The young man asked.
"Damn! Didja forgot the food you ate last lunch!? Two dollars taken from your salary to eat you!”
“But the lunch we just ate was only two pieces of biscuits, and you deducted two dollars from me!?”
"Damn! I'm just giving you some work to do because I think you look like an honest and polite young man. I'll just give you fourteen dollars. It's up to you whether you want to take it or not. There's nothing you can do even if I don't pay you a penny!”
That's around this time.
"Huh? Why does the worker look so familiar?”
A couple who joined hands accompanied by several others walked through this area.
"Akrabic? Raquel, is there something wrong with your eyes? Do you know a worker like this?”
The richly decorated man asked in a disdainful tone.
"No! No, he really looks very familiar. He's a good friend of my broke ex-boyfriend. He used to be really great in the past. Not wrong anymore! That's it!"
"Are you serious?" The boy asked.
The girl walked over to the worker.
"Gerald, this is really you!"
The girl recognized who the young man was in an instant.
There were signs of ridicule and ridicule on the girl's face.
Exactly right. This young man was none other than Gerald.
On that night, seven days ago, Xavia decided to let go. After Zack picks him up, he faces many risks along the way but he eventually arrives in Salford Province.
Anyway, Gerald knows where Uncle Quick's house is.
However, his village friends told him that it had been a few days since Uncle Quick left the village.
Gerald had nowhere else to go and he could only wait patiently.
Since he was so short of money, he had no choice but to come here to take on a part-time job.
Gerald also thought about finding a safe job.
However, when he arrives in Merry City, he is surrounded by his enemies, which is when he loses his identity card and everything that is on him.
Furthermore, Kort had sent various business tycoons to sniff his whereabouts.
So, Gerald was forced to avoid places that were too formal and appropriate. Gerald had no other choice but to come to such places to squat.
He was given a sense of being a miserable, depressed homeless outcast.
"Raquel?"
Gerald also recognized this girl.
She is Marven's girlfriend who practices taekwondo.
A few days ago, Gerald learned over the internet that after his downfall, Marven's travel company also collapsed.
Perfect demonstration of the ripple effect.
"Ha ha ha! I really didn't expect to see you here. Oh why? I've heard that the company that you shared with that fat has been shut down. I hear he's working as a pathetic little tour guide now. Ha ha! Look you! You are even worse than him! To think that you work on a construction site belonging to my husband's family!”
Raquel laughed with his hands covering his mouth.
"Oh! Mr Brown, Miss Raquel, do you know this young man?”
The foreman bowed as he asked respectfully.
“This has nothing to do with you! move!” Raquel answered coldly.
The foreman hurriedly left.
Afterwards, Raquel crossed his arms in front of his chest and sneered while looking at Gerald from top to bottom.
“Gosh, I really didn't expect to see you here. You were so cool back then. Too bad you have to end up in such circumstances. Or maybe you're just pretending? Is this your little crooked hobby? To experience life as a nobody without money?”
Raquel asked in a worried tone.
After all, Gerald had slapped him in the face once.
"If you don't have anything else to say, I'll go."
