Chapter 1477
The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1477 Hearing that, the trio then agreed to head to Heartstone Manor together first.
Yul had come looking for Perla since the Sherwins had initially been quite a prestigious and influential family in Jenna City. However, due to the Dun familyâs schemes, the fall of the Sherwin family came shortly after. With that in mind, though Perla had initially driven a luxury car worth at least seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars, she now only drove an ordinary BMW 7 Series.
Of course, Gerald didnât mind that at all.
On their way there, Perla began telling Gerald about the Heartstone Manor. As it turned out, the manor had a history of over a thousand years, and the earliest depictions of it stated that the manor had first been established by a prince and nobleman from ancient times.
Later on, the manor was eventually contracted by the Waddys who acted as the manorâs developer.
Following that, they began conducting many large-scale tourism projects there.
Aside from that, the manor was also used as the venue of the underground festival.
Regardless, since the Heartstone Manor was going to be closed up in just one more day, many people were already flocking the area by the time the trio got there.
Eventually, Perla managed to park the car in the crowded parking lot. Just as the trio was about to head off, all three of them suddenly heard a feminine voice sneering, âWhoâs car is this? Who allowed you to park here?!â
Turning around, Gerald saw that a high-end Mercedes Benz had stopped right in front of Perlaâs car, and several men and women had just stepped out of it. The one who had yelled at them appeared to be a woman who also seemed to be the leader of the group.
Before she could further ridicule the trio, however, both Perla and the woman suddenly froze in surprise.
After a brief moment, both of them called out each otherâs names in near-unison.
âPerla?â
âJenny?â
The second after she said that, Perlaâs face instantly reddened in embarrassment as she stared at the woman who looked to only be a few years older than her.
On the contrary, there was a smug look on Jennyâs face as she crossed her arms while sneering, âSo itâs you, Perla! Arenât you a bit too free to be having fun here at Heartstone Manor? Donât you have work to attend to or something?â
âWho is she, Jenny?â asked one of the young men from Jennyâs group. All it took was a glance for Gerald to see that all of them were wearing clothes befitting fashionable nobles. It was also evident that they all had contempt in their eyes.
âYou could call her my cousin, I guess⦠Her mother is my grandmotherâs adopted daughter, you see, and she eventually ended up getting married into the Sherwin family. I trust that all of you have already heard about what happened to the Sherwins, correct? With that in mind, I really hadnât expected her to still have the heart to come play around at Heartstone Manor! A place where only the wealthy can afford to come to!â replied Jenny.
It was really no secret that cousin sisters sometimes enjoyed comparing themselves with each other.
Jenny, for one, had always been jealous of Perla. After all, she could never even come close to comparing with her in the past. Now that tragedy had befallen the Sherwins, however, she finally had the opportunity to mock Perla to her heartâs content!
âYouâ¦!â growled the enraged Perla. However, she knew that there was nothing else she could really say.
A wry smile on his face, Gerald simply shook his head before saying, âLetâs just go, Perla!â
Nodding in response, Perla was just about to leave with the other two when Jenny suddenly shouted, âStop right there!â
âWhat is it now, Jennyâ¦â asked Perla.
âWhat do you mean, what âwhat is it nowâ? Move your d*mned car out of the way! How dare you have the guts to even park your cheap car in this expensive parking lot?!â retorted Jenny, feeling extremely frustrated.
âI know, right? To think that she even brought along that pathetic pauper!â chimed in another girl who had been standing beside Jenny.
The second they heard the words, âpathetic pauperâ, Gerald and Yul instantly turned back to look at the girl.
ââ¦Huh? Pathetic pauper? Who do you mean, Poppy?â asked Jenny.
âThat guy, of course! Heâs from our university and heâs as poor as a church mouse!â declared Poppy as she pointed at Yul.
Hearing that, Yul instantly blushed and lowered his head.
âYouâre really frustrating me, you know that, Perla? How did you ever manage to end up in such a pathetic state? To think that youâd actually bring two paupers along to have fun at such a high-end place! Couldnât you have just brought them to an amusement park or something? Hell, you couldâve just spent a little more money to bring them to Disneyland to have a look around! With that said, there was absolutely no reason for you to bring both of them here! I mean, just look at what both of them are wearing!â
