Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 830
If Rose was simply taunting him and ridiculing him alone just now, he would not have said anything at all. Gerald
was still the same old tolerant Gerald.
However, he could not allow her to insult Bea like this.
The kindness his fifth uncle had shown his own mother back then was not something that could be made up for with
cold hard cash.
What Gerald wanted was justice for Bea.
To his surprise, in the process of doing so, $1,200,000.00 had been swiped directly from his bank card.
But it did not really matter to him. After all, $1,200,000.00 or $120,000.00 made no difference to Gerald now. Aside
from a difference in the number of digits, nothing about that sum was significant enough to frustrate him.
“But cousin, this…this is too expensive! Hurry up and get a refund!”
Bea said as she jumped around anxiously.
“What? Why would you ask him to do that? If he wants to insert that amount into a membership card for you, you
should just let him do it! Hahaha! This fool! Putting so much money into a stupid card. I wanna see what he’ll do
with the balance!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs stunned and as surprised as Rose was, she still wanted to lash out against Gerald.
This was because if Gerald were to put all of that money into the membership card, then he’d never be able to do
anything else aside from buying clothes.
That’s what you get from tooting your own horn!
However, she was still very irritated and frustrated. That, and surprise. When did Gerald become so rich?
She suddenly lost her mood to continue shopping.
The same went for Marilyn. She had to debate with herself over and over again in her mind before buying a single
dress that cost $12,000.00 only for Gerald whom she had always looked down on, to put $1,200.000.00 into a
membership card without a hint of hesitation!!
Marilyn went out of the shop with a dejected expression.
At the same moment, Giya walked out from the shop next door.
When she saw Marilyn’s gloomy appearance, she couldn’t help but smile and ask, “Hey, what’s wrong with our little
Marilyn? Has your mood turned sour from all the shopping?”
Marilyn took a deep breath before she said, “Giya, do you believe in fate?”
“Ahhh? What kind of fate are you talking about?”
“Where a very poor person strikes gold overnight, and he becomes exceptionally rich!” Marilyn replied anxiously.
“What exactly happened?”
“I…I just ran into Gerald!”
“You saw Gerald?”
Giya suddenly felt very nervous.
“Yes! Gerald! Giya, you might not know this but Gerald…he seems a little different compared to how he was before.
Back then, he used to be the poorest student in our class. Back then, he was everybody’s punching bag. I used to
bully him too but do you know how wealthy he is right now? Did you know about this? He’s no longer the pauper
that he was when he was still in high school!”
Giya looked around and checked out her surroundings but saw no signs of Gerald.
So, she subconsciously nodded as she replied, “The amount of money that Gerald has is not something that you
can even comprehend!”
“Ahhh? Giya, what did you say?”
Marilyn did not hear Giya’s words clearly.
“Ahhh? I…I did not say anything!”
Giya came to her senses and she hurriedly denied what she had accidentally blurted out.
“Don’t think too much about it. You should just treat Gerald better from now onwards then. After all, the both of you
used to be classmates!” Giya advised.
“Yeah, I guess so! I think I caught a glimpse of another side of Gerald just now, y’know, when he was swiping his
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcard down the machine. He looked so cool and manly! Looks like I’ll have to change my attitude for the better from
now on!”
When Giya saw the smile on Marilyn’s face, she could not help but feel a little uncomfortable…
“I am so angry! I am so, so angry!”
Rose slammed her hands on the steering wheel angrily on the way back home.
“Why did that woman’s son suddenly become so rich? Where did he get his million dollars from? Did he win the
lottery?”
Rose kept on muttering the same thing on their entire journey home.
Just like most people, Rose also did not want her own opponent to become stronger and better than herself.
“That’s right! A million dollars ain’t small change, even to us! Sister-in-law, did you see how Gerald didn’t even blink
or hesitate at all when he swiped his card?” Second aunt also said.
“You know, we thought that Gerald was simply renting his clothes to look extravagant and that he was just acting
pretentious just to show off when we first met him. But it looks like everything that happened at the bar last night
might actually be real!”
Gerald’s younger cousin spoke up.
“What do you mean by that? What happened at the bar last night?”
