The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1960
Smiling subtly in response, Gerald then said, âLetâs have a chat upstairsâ¦â
Watching as Gerald began walking forward, Zachariah and Natallie quickly followed his leadâ¦
After heading upstairs, the trio soon found themselves in Geraldâs officeâ¦
Upon entering, Gerald signaled for Zakariah to take a seat as he said, âDo have a seat first, Chairman Kershaw. Natallie, please serve our guest some tea!â
âCopy that, Chairman Crawford!â replied Natallie with a nod before leaving the room⦠Now that they were alone, Gerald cleared his throat before saying, âFirst of, thereâs no need to apologize, Chairman Kershaw. After all, yesterdayâs incident had nothing to do with you.â
Hearing that, Zachariah was momentarily stunned. After all, he had no idea what had prompted Gerald to say that.
Starting to panic, Zakariah then said, âC-chairman Crawford⦠What do you-â
Seeing how panicked the man was, Gerald couldnât help but laugh, cutting Zachariahâs sentence short.
Looking at the terrified man, Gerald then replied with a smile, âThereâs no need to be so nervous, Chairman Kershaw. Thereâs no hidden meaning behind my wordsâ¦â
Once he heard that, Zachariah found himself breathing much easier.
Gerald himself could now tell just how much Zachariah feared the thought of his group getting acquired by the Yonjour Group.
Truth be told, Gerald wasnât even interested in acquiring Zachariahâs group. After all, though the Zachariah Group was incomparable with the Yonjour Group, it was still one of the best leading groups in Schywater City. What more, that group also made several contributions to charity, which gave Gerald even less reason to buy the group off Zachariah.
With that in mind, instead of talking about yesterdayâs incidentâwhich wasnât even Zachariahâs faultâ, Gerald wanted to talk about something else. âNow then, since youâve calmed down, do hear out my proposal, Chairman Kershaw⦠I understand that youâre an excellent entrepreneur. After all, you established your group from the ground up! With that in mind, I hope that your group will be willing to cooperate with mine,â explained Gerald who had honestly been thinking about this the second Zuri mentioned Zachariahâs name the day before.
Regardless, upon hearing that, Zachariah instantly expressed a clear look of incredulity! After all, he couldâve never imagined that Gerald would actually ask him to cooperate with the Yonjour Group instead of simply obtaining the Zachariah Group. As it turned out, he really had been overthinking!
Still, that didnât make him feel any less surprised. With that in mind, Zachariah gulped before asking, âD- do you really mean it, Chairman Crawfordâ¦? Are you truly willing to cooperate with my groupâ¦?â
âAs if Iâd joke about something like this!â replied Gerald as he nodded with a smile.
âWW-what wonderful news, Chairman Crawfordâ¦! Iâve always wanted to cooperate with you!â
exclaimed the increasingly excited Zachariah.
For Gerald to actually initiate a talk about cooperating with his group⦠This was certainly something to be proud of!
âGlad to hear that! Regardless, may I know what aspect your group mainly deals with now?â asked Gerald.
âAh, well, my group mainly deals with constructionâboth local and regionalâand weâre also involved in the real estate scene!â replied Zachariah who was already thinking about the future of his group. Being able to cooperate with Geraldâs group was definitely going to be his best chance of developing the Zachariah Group.
âI see⦠Whatâs the biggest project you currently have, Chairman Kershaw?â asked Gerald after nodding.
