Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 966
A hint of slight resentment could be heard in the man’s voice as he pointed at Gerald.
“Indeed! This is my husband, Gerald!” replied Juliet as she locked arms with Gerald.
“Gerald, this is Cavan, a classmate of mine from university!” added Juliet as she introduced him to the man.
“A pleasure to meet you!” said Gerald as he reached a hand out in accordance with the etiquettes Juliet had earlier
taught him.
“I truly can’t comprehend what goes on in your mind… Even if you broke up with him, you could’ve easily just gone
for anyone else other than this guy…” muttered Cavan.
Noticing Juliet’s warning gaze, however, Cavan simply stopped talking. It was evident that Cavan was one of Juliet’s
suitors. That explained why he completely ignored Gerald’s handshake as well.
Cavan wasn’t the only one treating Gerald that way though. Many of Juliet’s other male classmates shot equally
hostile gazes toward him, refusing to say a word to Gerald at all.
Even her female classmates were staring at Gerald contemptuously from time to time. It was as though they were
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtall wondering how a beauty like Juliet could end up being with such a pathetic person as Gerald.
“Just look at that guy, Cavan! I would’ve never imagined that Juliet would actually get married to such a person! To
think that she actually fell in love with a teacher working in Heavenly City University! I’m speechless! What the hell
even goes on in Juliet’s mind?”
It was a while later when several of her male classmates were discussing Gerald right outside the gents.
Their dissatisfaction with him was warranted since most, if not all, of them there had either had a crush or fallen for
her once. Cavan himself had had feelings for her for the longest time.
However, since Juliet already had someone else in her heart back then, nobody ever had a chance to even ask her
out. Upon finding out that she finally broke up with her boyfriend, all her classmates were eager to finally be able to
try their luck!
Alas, the next thing they knew, she had already gotten married to some useless person!
With all of them being distinguished people, it was really no wonder why they looked down on Gerald so much. After
all, he was simply a lecturer.
“Humph! I know right? We can’t even say anything to Juliet now since he’s constantly around her! What an
inconvenient eyesore!” scowled another classmate.
“In that case, then we should just make him leave then! We’ll make it clear to him that our gatherings aren’t events
that just anyone can attend, especially people with his status!” sneered Cavan.
After saying that, he began whispering his plan to all the present male classmates. Once everyone agreed, they all
returned to the private room together.
The moment Cavan saw Gerald, he walked over toward him with a smile before saying, “Speaking of which, we
haven’t even had a drink with the bridegroom! Since you snatched our goddess from us, you’ll have to drink with us
today!”
The other males simply exchanged gazes with each other in glee before smiling coldly at Gerald.
Despite the evident and sudden change in Cavan’s attitude, Gerald simply returned the smile as he replied, “Sure
thing! What are we drinking today?”
“That’s the spirit! Also, we’ll be drinking liquor! I just so happen to have a few boxes of good liquor in my car that
I’ve brought from home! Someone’s bringing some over as we speak!” said Cavan who wasn’t expecting Gerald to
agree so easily.
“Liquor sounds fine! In fact, I love drinking liquor!” replied Gerald with a laugh.
Since Juliet had easily sensed that Cavan and the others were up to no good, she had initially planned to remind
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGerald against falling for it.
Seeing how mindlessly he was acting, however, Juliet was left completely speechless.
‘Just let him drink if he wants to so much, then!’ Juliet thought to herself before looking to the side.
Soon after, her male classmates returned with two boxes of liquor in hand.
“Oh, and by the way, Gerald. My friend here runs a winery! As a result, he can hold his alcohol extremely well.
Would you have a problem with him being the master as we drink along? After all, both of us are plenty eager to
enjoy a good drink with you! How about it?” asked Cavan as he continued smiling.
“Not a problem!” replied Gerald with a nod.
Nobody noticed the impish glint in Gerald’s eyes as he said that. After practicing the many skills that Finnley had
taught him, Gerald had trained himself enough to become immune to all forms of alcohol.
In fact, he was now even able to consume basic poisons without having to deal with any side-effects. Liquor was
nothing to him!
The main reason Gerald agreed with Cavan’s proposal was because he knew how much Cavan and Juliet’s other
classmates disliked him. The current Gerald was no longer as passive as he used to be. He wouldn’t just endure all
his anger after being bashed around so much.
Since they wanted so much to play with him, then play with them he would.
