The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1344
âCome along now, young lad! Iâm tossing you into the cellar!â said Leo with a chuckle before lifting Felton with a single hand.
In his current state, Felton felt like he was nothing but a tiny chick who didnât even dare to fight or talk back.
As for Geraldâs side of things, Suri had made sure to contact Rosie once noon came, telling her that someone wished to meet up with her.
Due to how much Rosie trusted Suri, she agreed to meet Gerald despite her busy schedule.
With that, Gerald, Suri, and Seth then headed straight for the companyâin Qerton Cityâwhere Rosie was currently at.
Upon meeting her, Gerald could immediately sense that Rosie had a very strong aura, just as he had expected her to have. In other words, she had a perfect body for the lady in white to adapt to.
Regardless, with the trio now standing before her, the fair-skinned and beautiful womanâwho looked like quite a domineering chairman at around the age of twenty-sevenâasked, âYouâre Mr. Crawford, correct? Suri told me that you were looking for me. How can I help you?â
âA pleasure to meet you, Chairman Slow. Iâll cut straight to the chase and say that I require you to come someplace with me. More specifically, Iâd like to borrow you for less than three days. Of course, Iâm not asking you to do so for free. From what Iâve heard from Suri, your company appears to currently be experiencing a massive financial crisis, am I correct? Iâll say it now that should you agree to my request, Iâm willing to compensate you with over ten times the amount of what you currently owe!â
replied Gerald without beating around the bush.
Upon hearing that, Rosie found herself frowning slightly. With a bitter smile, she then said, âI apologize, Mr. Crawford, but what exactly do you mean by âborrowâ? Iâm afraid what youâre asking for is simply too inconvenient for me to oblige to!â
Though she had immediately turned down his request, Rosie couldnât help but wonder who this handsome and refined person was. What did he even mean by âborrowingâ her? What more, the amount she needed to tide over her companyâs financial crisis was at least a hundred million dollars!
Going with what he had suggested, wouldnât ten times of that amount to a billion dollars?
Due to it clearly sounding unbelievable, Rosie quickly found herself concluding that Gerald wasnât a reliable person. With that in mind, she simply stood up to leave so that she could be done with this queer conversation.
At that moment, a shout could suddenly be heard coming from outside, stating, âMr. Caffin! You canât just go in like that! Our chairmanâs meeting up with a guest right now!â
âBah! All sheâs meeting is a pimp, isnât she! Now get out of my way! Iâm meeting Rosie!â declared Mr.
Caffin as he slammed the office door open.
Following that, everyone watched as a robed old manâwho looked to be around the age of sixtyâ
sporting a goatee and a felt hat on his head, entered the room alongside his bodyguard. If the four people inside the office didnât know any better, theyâd surely have assumed that old man was from some band!
Hands in his pocket, Mr. Caffin then said in a carefree manner, âYour subordinate truly is too ignorant, Rosie! Can you imagine her actually trying to stop me from entering your office? How could she not know that youâre already engaged to me!â
âI beg your pardon, Titus! Have you gone mad? Who on earth got engaged to you? Also, do you really think that my office is someplace you can just barge into whenever you feel like it?â retorted Rosie.
From what Gerald could see, Rosieâs disgusted expression was more than enough to tell him that she wasnât the least interested in Titus at all.
âRegardless, arenât you interested in finding out why I so anxiously came over to look for you today?
Worry not, Iâve got you covered. See, with your mother currently so ill and in a vegetative state, I went ahead and took the initiative to find a top-notch doctor for you! The doctor in question is Dr. Yivian Zouch, and heâs well-known for curing several other patients who were also in vegetative states!â
explained Titus as he quickly introduced Yivian to Rosie.
Upon hearing that, Rosieâwho had initially been planning to scowl and chase Titus out of her office in angerâfound herself holding her tongue as she gulped and turned to look at Dr. Zouch before saying, ââ¦Is he the one?â
âIndeed I am, Miss Slow. Just so you know, Mr. Caffin pleaded to me for the longest time before I finally agreed to come over! Heâs really been willing to spend a lot of effort on you!â said the doctor as he rested his left arm against his back while stroking his goatee with his right hand, a pose that suggested that he truly was a world-renowned expert.
âHear that, Rosie? Do you see how much I care about you now? Speaking of which, who is that pimp anyway?â snorted Titus as he looked at Gerald with hostile eyes.
