Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2210

Upon seeing how many people had gathered, the guard couldn’t help but declare, “All of you! Get this, these two claimed to know our consortium’s chairman! Not only that, but after ‘giving him a call’ they said that he’s coming down to meet them soon! Wait along to see if he actually comes! If he doesn’t…

Then join me in kicking them out!”

“They what now? Hey, do you two even know how famous our chairman is? How the hell could anyone like you two ever deserve to meet him!”

“I know right? Just kick them out while you can! Who knows where these maniacs are from!” scoffed the surrounding individuals who all worked at the Fareast Consortium.

They were right to be doubtful. After all, despite working here for so long, they themselves hardly ever got the chance to see the chairman, though this was most probably because the chairman was always abroad and making more business deals. Even then, these were the luckier few who even got the chance to catch glimpses of him in the flesh.

Many within the consortium had never even seen the chairman before, save for his photograph in the lobby. At best, they would be able to catch glimpses of his exclusive helicopter touching down atop their building.

Whatever the case was, after hearing their comments, Aiden couldn’t help but blush as he asked, “How long is it going to take for Derrick to come down, Gerald…?”

Honestly, if Gerald wasn’t by his side, he would’ve already started arguing with them. However, he knew better than to behave that way with Gerald here, so he was forced to keep quiet, naturally making him extremely sulky about the situation.

Gerald himself hardly took their comments seriously, so be simply replied, “Just wait for a bit.”

Finally, about ten minutes later, the building’s doors were opened by a security guard and out jogged a suited middle aged man with a slick back hairstyle. Honestly, he was moving so quickly that he nearly toppled down the stairs!

Regardless, upon seeing him, everyone was quickly stunned. After all, the person was none other than Derrick! Some of them even did double takes since they weren’t used to seeing him in person!

Either way, upon seeing Gerald, Derrick straightened his suit before enthusiastically walking up to him while saying, “Gerald! It truly has been ages since we last met!”

Chuckling in response, Gerald simply replied, “Oh, I could’ve met you ten minutes earlier if your subordinates had just allowed me in!”

Naturally, Derrick immediately caught onto what Gerald was implying. With that, he quickly turned to face his employees before growling, “Listen here! This man goes by Mr. Gerald Crawford, and he’s a very important friend of mine! If you dare block him from entering again, you’ll instantly be fired! Got that?”

“L-loud and clear…!” whimpered the frightened employees who were frozen in fear. To think that these two ordinary men actually knew their chairman…! Had they not witnessed this with their own eyes, they surely wouldn’t have believed any of this!

Upon hearing their response, Derrick then turned his gaze toward Gerald again before saying, “Now that that’s settled… Please come this way, Gerald. Honestly, you arrived just in time! I just returned from the Western Union a few hours ago, you know? Had you arrived before then, I would’ve surely had to make you wait even longer!”

“I see… Could I be disturbing your test right now?” replied Gerald with a smile.

“Not at all! Truth be told, I’ve been looking forward to your visit for ages! While I would’ve paid you a visit myself, I know how busy you can get. What more, you’re always moving around, so I figured that it’d be best for me to wait for you instead. It’s the reason why I haven’t made a move even after all these years. I really hope you don’t mind that!”
