Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1429

By the time Gerald was done speaking, everyone was completely dumbfounded. Regardless of whether it was because of how romantic his remarks were or something else, the scene was enough to cause a major uproar among Mila’s classmates! Some people were even snapping pictures of the scene with their cell phones!

As Mila’s face grew the reddest she had ever been, Gerald—who was done speaking—simply turned around and left the classroom.

Staring at Gerald’s back, Mila felt an inexplicable emotion welling within her… Where were these feelings even coming from…?

Naturally, the incident quickly became extremely popular within the university; the second Mila’s class ended. After all, a scene where a pathetic pauper attempted to pursue a goddess was something that one would usually only be able to see in movies!

Regardless, Gerald’s move had amplified the courage of all the shyer boys who had previously not dared to ask Mila out. Due to that, many of them were now standing in line to give love letters to her!

Knowing that she absolutely couldn’t remain in her classroom anymore, Mila had decided to go out with her close friends.

Before they were able to leave, however, they heard a rather beautiful girl from her class—who was currently staring at Mila in dissatisfaction—mutter, “Hah! What’s so great about you, Mila Smith? The boys must truly be blind for them to treat you like some kind of goddess!”

The girl herself went by the name of Mallory Xenakis, and she was rather popular within the Department of Broadcasting and Hosting.

Naturally, the more popular a girl was, the greater her jealousy when attention was drawn away from her. Now that all eyes were on Mila, it wasn’t a surprise for her to feel this unhappy and dissatisfied.

“And what’s wrong with the boys treating her like a goddess, Mallory? How many boys even like you?”

scoffed one of Mila’s good friends.

Since Mallory had always been mean toward Mila, several of Mila’s closer friends had a rather bad relationship with her.

“Boys? Hah! I’ll say it now that there are way too many people currently after me, and they’re all sons of very wealthy and powerful men! Do you think I’m someone like Mila? A person whom even a pathetic pauper dares to pursue? I don’t give a d*mn about any of this at all!” declared Mallory.

“You’re just jealous because everyone’s talking about Mila instead of you now, aren’t you, Mallory? Just admit to that already! Is there really a need to act like this?” retorted another one of Mila’s friends.

“Mila’s the main topic of conversation, you say? Well, allow me to remind you that the university’s fiftieth-anniversary celebration is in three days’ time! I’m sure all of you are already aware that I’m the main emcee of the group! Oh, and what about Mila? She’s just a substitute emcee! With that said, I’m sure everyone will finally be able to differentiate between the main character and the side chick from just a simple glance during the event! Just you guys wait!”

Before the girls could quarrel any further, Mila quickly pulled her sisters out of the classroom to leave.

She simply couldn’t be bothered wasting her time bickering about something so trivial.

Glaring at Mila’s back with fierce eyes, she then shouted, “Just you wait and see, Mila Smith…!”

Following that, she fished her phone out before locating the contact number saved under the name, ‘Godfather’…

As Mallory dialed the number, Gerald himself had just exited a branded clothing store with a new shirt on.

He had gone there immediately after leaving the Department of Broadcasting and Hosting, and he was making sure that nobody would continue referring to him as a pathetic pauper anymore from this day onward.

Regardless, Gerald was feeling extremely happy and joyous since he had finally been able to reunite with Mila after so long…

Still, undergoing the baptism of heaven remained his top priority. With that said, aside from secretly looking at Mila when he had nothing else to do, Gerald spent most of his time waiting at Mountain Top Villa.

While his sudden change was undoubtedly a great shock for all his classmates, they were no longer important in his eyes. After all, he had already had a showdown and his identity as a top-notch rich heir was now exposed.

That, in itself, caused a huge sensation among those in the university, and countless beautiful girls instantly flocked around him. Of course, Gerald made sure to tactfully turn all of them down.

While all was going pretty well, Gerald constantly reminded himself to remain alert. He even made sure to retain a semi-vigilant state, even while resting late at night in his dormitory!

In the end, he was thankful that he did. True to Peter’s words, Gerald could clearly sense the presence of a person who had been spying on him…
