Chapter 153
The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 153 Gerald knew what Elena meant without even thinking about it! She was definitely trying to get him to pretend he was her boyfriend so she could use him to deal with that cousin of hers. Gerald had done enough pretending, though, let alone pretending as her boyfriend. âGerald, please, I beg you, please pretend youâre my boyfriend. Aiden and the others look too much like gangsters; they are not as composed as you are.
Youâre the best candidate for me. If youâre not going to help me, my cousin will definitely hook me up with that guy, and I really donât want to meet him!â begged Elena. Although Gerald wanted to refuse, he could really find no reason to. After all, Elena had helped him a few times before, and now she was just asking him to return the favor. It was a simple request, and it would be embarrassing if he refused.
âAlright!â Gerald nodded and agreed. After hanging up the phone, Gerald did not go upstairs with Aiden and the others. Instead, he took a taxi to Elenaâs cousinâs house. Her cousinâs family was also quite wealthy, having owned a villa in Rivington City. When he arrived, Elena was already at the entrance waiting for him. And next to her was a girl who looked to be Elenaâs age. No matter how Gerald looked at it, the scene reminded him of the time when he went to Mila Smithâs house. One day, would he run into all of them by pretending to be someone elseâs boyfriend? Gerald got out of the car and greeted Elena. âAH! My gosh, cousin, is this Gerald? Is he the boyfriend you mentioned earlier? Why did he get a cab here?â The girl next to her was relatively fair and pretty, but when he saw Gerald, he looked at him with a mix of resentment and disappointment. It seemed Elena didnât reveal his identity. The rich and fair girl had no idea who he was at all. Judging by how he dressed, he looked like some poor loser no matter which way he was looked at. Besides, wasnât he ashamed of taking a cab here? She was disappointed. âAmber, what are you talking about? Gerald is a very nice person! Whatâs wrong with him being my boyfriend!â Smiling sweetly, Elena ran over and held Geraldâs arm. Alas, how nice it would be if Gerald was really was her boyfriend, Elena thought to herself. âAlright, alright. I hope my parents and relatives wonât say anything when they see him later!â Amber curled her lips, not bothered to look at Gerald any longer. She turned and went inside. âDamn⦠didnât you say I only had to meet your cousin?
Why are there so many other people?â Gerald was stunned. âThey only came after I called you. Iâm so sorry, Gerald⦠help me just this once!â Elena popped out her tongue. âAlright, just this once!â replied Gerald helplessly. What Gerald had in mind before he came here was actually quite simple. Once he met up with Elenaâs cousinâs family, her cousins would definitely start comparing him with other guys.
He would then bring out some of his assets and let them play compare. It was that simple. But now, all of Elenaâs aunts and uncles were there, and that gave him a headache. It turned out everyone heard that Elena was coming today, and her family and her cousinâs side were usually quite close. They even had ties with one another when it came to business dealings. What more, they heard that Elena had found herself a boyfriend. So, they all came here.
