Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1958
With that said, Gerald then returned to his seat as the old couple and their daughter began setting up their stall again.
The second Gerald sat down, Raine immediately said in sincere admiration, âYou were so awesome earlier, senior!â
Raine, for one, felt that not many could beat up so many people alone and in such a short amount of time, no less.
Laughing in response, Gerald simply replied in a humble tone, âThat was nothing. Those hooligans were just too weak.â
Of course, Raine knew he was just being modest. After all, those gangsters were definitely far from weak. Even so, they were unable to even lift a finger against Gerald! Then again, it wasnât all that surprising. After all, even Yashâa Taekwondo expertâhad been unable to take on Gerald!
Regardless, it was about ten minutes later when the old woman served a massive plate of food before Gerald and Raineâ¦
Smiling as she looked at the duo, the old woman then said, âOrder up! Freshly roasted, just for the two of you! Again, if this isnât enough, just give me a call and Iâll roast up another plate for you!â
âWeâll keep that in mind! Thank you, boss!â replied both Gerald and Raine at the same time.
âOh please, we should be the ones thanking you! After all, we couldâve gotten into serious trouble had you not stepped in earlier!â said the old woman as she waved her hand slightly before leaving Gerald and Raine to give them room to enjoy their foodâ¦
As time went on, the duo realized that more and more people seemed to come over to have their meals in the old couplesâ stall. It seemed that the incident truly was a positive turning point in the couplesâ
business luck.
Either way, it was around eleven that night when Gerald and Raine finally finished their meals.
With that, Gerald walked up to the old woman before asking, âHow much was all that, boss?â
âHuh? I told you, itâs on the house! After all, you helped us so much tonight! Thereâs simply no way I could take your money!â replied the old woman.
Even so, there was no way she was ever going to be able to persuade Gerald against it. After all, Gerald knew for a fact that the family of three didnât have it easy. What more, he and Raine had eaten quite a bit tonight, and the ingredient costs probably werenât cheap. With that in mind, he was going to pay her no matter what! âBoss, I know how hard it is for you to make a living, so please accept the money! Otherwise, Iâm afraid I wouldnât dare return here to eat next time!â said Gerald as he fished out several ten-dollar bills from his wallet and gently pushed them into her hands.
âHeâs right, boss! Just accept the money!â added Raineâwho was now standing beside Geraldâ, understanding Geraldâs intent.
Hearing that, the woman could only sigh in defeat as she took the money before saying, ââ¦Alright, Iâll take it! Come by anytime and âll give both of you discounts!â
Nodding in response, both of them then replied, âBut of course we will!â
Smiling happily at their response, the old woman then watched as Gerald and Raine finally left the areaâ¦
As she was about to get back to work, the old woman couldnât help but notice that her daughterâs eyes were affixed in the direction of the leaving duo.
Knowing that lovestruck gaze anywhere, the old woman was prompted to say, ââ¦Donât tell me you have a crush on him, Yusraâ¦â
Her daughterâs name was Yusra Zablocki, and she was in her third year of high school.
Whatever the case was, when she heard her mother say that, the charming Yusra couldnât help but blushâ¦
