Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 603
Gerald realized that the old man was the same one who had blackmailed him when he was still looking for Giya
back then. Gerald would never have dreamed that the old man would actually come looking for him again.
“How come it’s you again,” said Gerald as he frowned slightly.
“Ah! My grandson! It’s wonderful that you’re here now! Humph! These guards won’t let me in! Tell them to let me
in!” said the old man with his hands on his waist.
“Why do you want to go in there? What do you need this time? I’ve already helped you before and I even cured
your injured leg! Stop pestering me, do you really think that I’m a nice man without any temper?” replied Gerald
rather impatiently.
Gerald didn’t really mind helping people if they looked as pitiful as the beggar did. However, he had already helped
him once. If the old man continued to abuse Gerald’s pity, he would definitely be crossing the line.

lot! If he isn’t dead, he should be around the same age as you are this year!” said the old man, his tone suddenly
grievous as he lowered his head.
“What nonsense are you spouting? That’s it, I’m beating you up!”
Just as they were about to hit him, Gerald took pity after hearing the old man’s tale and he raised his hand slightly.
“Yes, Mr. Crawford!” shouted both guards as soon as they saw his gesture. Both of them then returned to their
initial positions.
Seeing that, the old man sat on the porch with a sad expression on his face.
Gerald just couldn’t bear looking at the beggar’s poor state so he fished out a hundred dollar note from his wallet.
“I get it, you want money too, right? But I warn you, this is the last time I’m giving any to you. Now leave!”
He was aware that it would become a bad habit of the old man to depend on him if Gerald kept giving him money.
Still, it wasn’t like Gerald could stop himself from doing it. The old man was rather old and he couldn’t just turn a
blind eye and let others beat him up.
“It’s not money that I want, my grandson! I just want to go in and have a bath! Just look at how shabby my clothes
are!” said the old man with a chuckle.
Gerald then pointed at the old man before saying, “I’m warning you now. Don’t address me as your grandson ever
again! If it’s just a bath you need, there’s a bathroom nearby. Go ahead and take your shower there!”
After saying that, Gerald handed some money to the guards before turning away to leave.
The guards instantly understood what he meant, and said, “D*mn old man! Mr. Crawford is so kind! He’s allowing
you to take your bath there, so come along already!”
He then began dragging the old man away.
“Thank you, my grandson!”
“I told you to stop f*cking calling me that!”
The incident wasn’t really a big issue for Gerald so he simply headed to his hotel room to take a shower and retire
for the night.
Not long after his shower however, he heard a knock on the door. Upon opening it, he was shocked beyond words.

“D*mn it, what are you doing here? Actually, how did you get in here?” asked Gerald, slightly stupefied.
In order to use the elevator in this hotel, one would first need to have a hotel room access card. What more, Gerald
was staying on the VIP floor. To get to this specific floor, the person would also have to pass through a security door.
Not only did the old man get past all that, he was also able to find the exact room Gerald was staying in!
The old man simply chuckled before saying, “I came to look for you, my grandson. Could you arrange a place for
me to stay?”
“Also, I hope you haven’t forgotten that I’ve helped you before. I was the one who had given you the clues to look
for that girl back then,” added the old man as he chuckled again.
“Now I just want to know how you got here,” replied Gerald as he scratched the back of his head in resignation.
While the old man certainly did look cleaner now, whenever he grinned, Gerald could sense that he was no nice
man.
“If you’re talking about those glass doors, they were easy to get past. I just gently poked them with my finger. All of
those machines out there are out of order as well, so that’s how I got up here!”
As soon as the old man was done with his explanation, a loud noise was heard.
