Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 535
“Hmm? What is it, Mr. Winters?”
Mr. Winters tugged at Gerald’s sleeve and sat him down.
“Of course, it’s something good! When you called earlier today, I told you about it, but I figured it’s better to tell you
in person. It’s not the wisest to talk about it with my sons around.”
“Ohh, please go ahead then, Mr. Winters!”
“I used to work in the mines and befriended this guy. After all these years of moving around, when I went to town
some time ago, I just happened to run into him, and we chatted for a bit, you know, to catch up. He told me that his
granddaughter is almost the same age as you, around the same age group as you and Francis!”
“She graduated from college a year earlier than you, and now her family seems anxious to find her a boyfriend.
Her family is well-off and rich, so there aren’t any particular criteria needed. I just thought of introducing her to you,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtas the family has two daughters, and she’s the eldest!” Mr. Winters explained excitedly.
“So, I wanted to discuss with you about arranging a date between the two of you for tomorrow! I’m not going to let
Francis know about this matter, and you shouldn’t tell him either!”
Gerald could see what Mr. Winters had in mind. Seeing that Gerald had difficulty looking for jobs, Mr. Winters
wanted to help Gerald matchmake.
He did all these for Gerald, and his intentions were pure and honest.
It was just like the last time with Xeno.
But Gerald already had Mila Smith, and the previous dates that were matchmade to him did not go well at all.
Gerald was traumatized by the girls, so he really repulsed the idea of it.
“Mr. Winters, there’s no need for that, but thank you for your kind consideration! Now, if you’ll excuse me…”
“What’s there to be afraid of? You can mind your own business later, but I think you should meet up with her! It
doesn’t matter if it will work out, at least get to know her!” Mr. Winters wondered in bewilderment.
This scenario felt almost identical to the last time with Xeno.
Under this particular circumstance, Gerald could not tell Mr. Winters that he was actually well-off, and there was no
need to help him find a partner.
He could neither accept nor reject that offer, and neither could he upset Mr. Winters.
“Alright, fine, I’ll meet up with her tomorrow.” Gerald nodded.
“Great, I’ll give her a call then!”
Mr. Winters eagerly grabbed his phone to make the call. He then returned minutes later in high spirits.
“Okay, luckily, my friend’s daughter is available tomorrow! I told him that both of you will be meeting and none of
us will be tagging along. This is her number, give her a call tomorrow. Wherever you guys are going to meet, that’s
up to you. Try to sweet-talk her, okay? Her name is Michelle Waxham, just call her Elle. Her mom is a teacher, so
she is a sweet one with good manners.” Mr. Winters said excitedly.
“Alright then, I’ll give her a call later!”
After chatting with Mr. Winters, Gerald went home.
He pondered for a bit before he decided to make the phone call.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Hello, who are you looking for?”
A lady’s voice was heard from the other end.
“Hi, I’m Gerald; you must be Elle? It was Mr. Winters who suggested that I should give you a call!”
It was Gerald’s first time to call someone this way. He tried to act a little cheerful and generous, but he still sounded
a little restrained.
“Oh, oh, yes, I know,” Elle replied politely. She then waited for Gerald to continue speaking.
“Are you busy?” Gerald asked.
“I’m good, no worries, you may continue!”
“Which middle school did you attend before? Was it the First, middle school or Second middle school?” Gerald tried
to create conversations with random topics.
“I attended Second middle school; what about you?”
“I attended the First! So, are you free tomorrow? There’s a new Domino’s that just opened in town; why don’t we
meet there and hang out?”
Gerald did not know what else to talk about anymore, so he went straight to the point.
“Sure!”
“Well, you get some rest early!”
“Mmhmm, you too!”
