Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 695

With that, both of them then left the classroom.

“I thought you were here on vacation. Pray tell, why are you doing in this university?”

“To get an education of course. Actually, I should be asking you that question. What are you doing here?” replied

Gerald.

While they didn’t particularly hold any grudges against each other, Warren didn’t particularly like being around

Gerald, and the same went vice versa.

“Since we’re already talking about it, I’ll just make things clear to you now. For starters, I’m not the only one here.

Maia and a few others came together with me. I can’t tell you what exactly we’re doing here, but if you know

what’s best for you, you’d better keep your mouth zipped tight when it comes to us. Our identity is not to be

revealed under any circumstances! This is my first and final warning, so you better remember that!”

Once he was done with his explanation, Warren then turned around before walking away from Gerald.

‘Maybe they’re here because of a mission? Not that I really care,’ Gerald thought to himself as he laughed bitterly

while shaking his head.

Just as he was about to return to class, he felt a tug on his sleeve. When he turned back to look, Gerald noticed a

rather shy-looking girl, meekly holding on to his sleeve. Despite her shyness, she was holding on to him pretty

tightly.

“H-hey there, handsome! We’re currently collecting donations for charity! Regardless of how much you donate, we

won’t complain! We’re just trying to help children in the countryside who can’t afford to pay for their education!”

Seeing that she was volunteering for a selfless cause, Gerald felt bad even thinking about turning her down. What

more, she was obviously fighting against her shyness just to gather more funds for the charity.

The money wasn’t going to be spent wastefully either. Similar to Scothow Elementary, the school he had built

himself, the money would be used for a good cause.

Reassured that donating would be the right thing to do, he then nodded to the girl’s delight.

“H-how much would you like to donate?” asked the shy girl.

At that moment, a few other girls who were also working as volunteers began flocking around him. They had

noticed that one of them had managed to get someone to donate, so all of them had bright smiles on their faces.

“Hmm… Let’s go with fifty thousand dollars!” replied Gerald with a chuckle.

“…W-what? Fifty thousand?”

All of the girls were equally taken aback by his response.

Donation campaigns like this were common across most universities. They were usually aimed to help poorer

students living in the countryside.

Such campaigns tended to garner quite a bit of support, and most of the students from this university were

similarly willing to partake in donating for a good cause.

While this was true, the majority of the students would only be willing to donate a couple of bucks at best, the

common trend being less than a hundred dollars per donation. Not that they were complaining. After all, it was the

thought that counts.

However, to think that they were now being presented with a fifty thousand dollar donation…

These girls had been working hard to collect donations for at least half a month now. This was their first time

meeting such a generous student!

“M-mister! Are you really serious about donating fifty thousand dollars?”

The girls could hardly believe their ears.

Gerald simply laughed in response as he pulled his credit card out, ready to make his donation.

Once they presented him with the transaction machine, Gerald began pressing its buttons without the slightest

hesitation.

“A receipt for a transaction of five hundred thousand dollars!” announced the machine in a robotic voice.

“…Huh?”

The jaws of all the girls were now hanging wide open.

“Cr*p!” said Gerald, equally as shocked.

Since he was feeling more philanthropic lately, he truly wanted to donate the fifty thousand dollars he had

promised. He would never have dreamed that he would accidentally push an extra zero on the transaction

machine! This was a mistake on his behalf!

He blamed it on his constant obsession over Jasmine of late.

While he didn’t exactly mind the mistake, he still needed to maintain a low profile in the university.

“S-sir, it seems that you’ve made a mistake! I’ll go make the necessary arrangements immediately! We’ll return the

extra amount to your account as soon as possible! Might you be free this afternoon? We’ll have to go to the main

office to deal with this since they’ll need your signature to approve the refund!” apologized one of the volunteers

profusely.

“…Ah, that’s going to be a hassle! You know what, just take it! Five hundred thousand it is!” said Gerald as she

shook his head. After all, there wasn’t much of a difference between five hundred thousand and fifty thousand

dollars to him. It was just a single digit!

The volunteers were stunned speechless by his act of extreme generosity.

Gerald then proceeded to note down his major and class. Just as he was about to write down Marven’s name, he

saw a group of people walking over to him with cameras and voice recorders in hand. They seemed to be reporters

of some sort.

They must’ve come here after hearing how much he had donated to the charity! Their sudden appearance

surprised him so much that he accidentally dropped the pen he was holding.

“Hold it! I’m fine with donating as long as you abide to a single rule! I wish to strictly remain anonymous!” said

Gerald before immediately running off.

“I-I see! But even if we don’t announce it, could we still have your name?” asked a confused volunteer as she

watched him run off.

Gerald simply waved a hand without even turning to look back before disappearing into another corridor.
