The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1211
With all the assailants now lying on the ground, Gerald threw the stick away. Naomi herself immediately ran toward the car to help Sherry up.
Being both soft and weak, the scene from earlier had almost shocked Sherry to death.
Had those men had the chance to touch her inappropriately, Sherry wouldnât have had the will to live on with that memory in mind!
The fact that she had been constantly forced to do things against her will for a while now didnât help her mental state. If they had truly had their way with her, then Sherry feared that taking her own life wasnât going to be out of the question anymore.
Regardless, her teacher was now here and the teary-eyed Sherry immediately embraced Naomi while whimpering, âM-Miss Miltonâ¦! Y-youâve been so good to me and yet I⦠I⦠Iâm such a jerk! A total inhumane, jerkâ¦!â
Comforting the crying girl, Naomi simply replied, âItâs alright, I understand⦠I donât blame you⦠After all, you only did all this because your mother had fallen sick, right? Why didnât you tell me that you had been going through such a rough timeâ¦?â
Naomi truly felt bad for what Sherry had to go through this entire time. She couldnât imagine how hellish it would be for the girl had Gerald decided not to come back to look for herâ¦
Itâd be a complete waste for such a talented girlâs future to be destroyed, just like that⦠Not wanting to think about it anymore, Naomi simply reminded herself that in the end, the most important thing was that her student was still safe.
âI-I was the one who stole the money, missâ¦!â wailed Sherry, unableâand unwillingâto hide the truth anymore.
âB-but I didnât dare use any of the money! No matter how broke I am, Iâd never use such unclean cash!
Iâve been earning all that I needed by working part-time as a tutor!â added Sherry in between tears.
âIâm proud of you for not using any of it⦠And again, I understand!â replied Naomi as she continued comforting the sobbing girl.
A little while later, Gerald walked toward the side of her houseâs door and lifted a loose tile. Just as Sherry had said, the money was there, all thirty thousand dollars of it. Seeing that, Gerald couldnât help but feel slightly touched by Sherryâs sincere personality.
âHey now, your mother still hasnât eaten, you knowâ¦? Now stop crying and letâs go cook her a new meal! Iâd like to meet her at the hospital as well!â said Naomi as she wiped the tears off Sherryâs face.
Nodding slowly in agreement, the two of them then quickly cooked up a new meal. After getting it into the thermos, Gerald sent both Naomi and Sherry to the hospital.
As for the bloodied bodyguards left there, Gerald easily settled the messy scene with a single phone call.
Once they arrived at the hospital, Gerald joined the duo as they visited Sherryâs mother. From just a single look at her, Gerald was able to tell that the illness was nothing too serious, at least for his standards. While it wasnât incurable, the problem was that treating her motherâs sickness required a lot of money.
Sherry truly had it rough. With that in mind, Gerald paid for all the medical fees needed and even promised Sherry that all her university living expenses and fees would be sponsored by the Mayberry Commercial Group.
Gerald also told her that he would get a person named Zack to arrange a job for her once she made a full recovery. Comforting her, Gerald added that everything was going to get better soon.
It was about nine at night when everything was settled. Knowing that Sherry had been through a lot today, Naomi decided to accompany and have a little talk with her.
Since Gerald didnât really know how to comfort such a young lady, he headed off with the same flask from before to get some water.
It was at that moment whenâ¦
