Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1421
Since Gerald had successfully made it back to the past, it essentially meant that there were two of him in the
current time and space, and Zyla had emphasized time and again and both of them should never meet face to
face.
With that in mind, Gerald knew that he had to first locate his past self and temporarily hide him in a quiet place.
Once that was done, he would act as his substitute for the coming week. Whatever the case was, he now needed to
put on a simple disguise first…
Meanwhile, a loud ‘thud’ could be heard within the university campus as a male student was kicked down by
another much taller and burlier student.
Locking arms with the tall student, was a beautifully dressed girl who simply watched as her lover pointed at Gerald
before cursing, “You’re a real embarrassment, Gerald, you know that? How dare you almost bump into my
girlfriend while picking up trash? I guess you’re as embarrassing as you are blind!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter watching him kick Gerald again, his girlfriend then said, “Though he’s like this, did you know that he actually
has a rather pretty girlfriend, hubby? I do wonder what goes through that head of hers! Choosing him to be her
boyfriend is a real embarrassment to us women as well, you know?”
“Hahaha! Pathetic! Come on, I really don’t feel like talking about him anymore. I just can’t help but feel angry
whenever I see his wimpy face! Now let’s go and have some fun, darling! There’s no need to give him any more
attention than he deserves!” scoffed the burly boy as he hugged the girl before leaving together.
Being a rather busy time of the day—within the campus, no less—many students who were walking in and out of
the place had witnessed the scene, and several of them were now staring and pointing at Gerald.
Naturally, this wasn’t the first time something like this had happened to him.
Whatever the case was, all the old Gerald could do was bite onto his lower lip as he clutched onto his aching belly
that had been kicked rather hard. Due to all the sardonic gazes from the people around him, he couldn’t help but
blush out of shame as he quickly got off the ground.
Picking up his snakeskin bag—that he had been using to pick up discarded bottles—he then quickly ran away in
embarrassment.
Eventually, he arrived at a deserted corner outside the campus where he squatted down and finally allowed his
tears to fall. It wasn’t like he wanted to do all this, but he was poor… He really didn’t have any other choice.
While Gerald himself had never found it shameful to be doing what he currently was from the very beginning, why
was everyone bullying him for doing so?
Just as Gerald was pondering about it, he suddenly received a text message on his old phone. It was from his
girlfriend, Xavia.
‘Gerald, I’ve been thinking about this for some time, but… Why don’t we take some time off from each other? Don’t
get me wrong, I don’t mean anything by that, I just wish to be alone for a while so that I can think about my future!
With that said, please don’t contact me for the time being!’
“…Why…?” wept Gerald in grief, knowing full well that this was Xavia asking him to break up with her.
Gerald was so saddened that he didn’t even notice that a person wearing a cap and mask was spying on him not
too far away.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThat person, of course, was none other than the future Gerald.
‘So it turns out that I’ve returned at the exact moment me and Xavia broke up!’ Gerald thought.
He had been observing his past self for a while since he wanted to see when exactly in time he had returned to.
Now that that was determined, Gerald slowly began walking toward his past self…
Upon seeing him, the past Gerald instantly picked his snakeskin bag up with a frightened expression on his face as
he said, “…You… W-what do you think you’re doing…?”
Frowning, the future Gerald then replied, “…Why the hell do I feel like beating you up so badly just from looking at
how you behave…?!”
Since Gerald had already used the voice transformation technique on himself, his past self most definitely saw him
as nothing more than a stranger.
Regardless, the future Gerald was left absolutely speechless. Though this was his old self, he really felt like slapping
the past him right across his face.
After all, despite being a top-notch rich heir, he was behaving like such a wimp!
This fact alone enraged Gerald to no end.
