Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2211
Following that, Derrick whose bodyguards surrounded the group of three led the duo into the building, leaving the previous employees staring at their backs, completely stupefied. Throughout their many years working here, they had never seen their chairman being so close with anyone, not that they had many chances to see him in the first place.
Whatever the case was, the trio soon got into an elevator and headed to the top floor⦠The entire floor was Derrickâs office, and the elevator doors opened, Gerald and Aiden were greeted by the sight of at least a dozen youngindividuals running here and there. From the way they were dressed, they appeared to be Derrickâs secretariesâ¦
âThis way, please!â said Derrick as he gestured for Gerald and Aiden to continue following him, ignoring the chaotic scene.
Once they got to his table, Derrick took his coat off before making some tea. Before he sat at the table again, he made sure to get a pack of cigarettes that had been given to him by the Japanese royal family from the cabinet as well.
As Derek placed the cigarettes before the youth, Gerald who had noticed the pile of documents on Derrickâs desk couldnât help but rub his temple as he muttered, âYou know, Iâm fine coming another time if youâre busyâ¦â
âIâm not busy at all! If youâre talking about those documents, my secretaries can handle those! With that said, youâre my priority here, so donât worry about anything else! â replied Derrick as he shook his head with a grin.
âYou havenât changed one bit, have you?â said Gerald as he shook his head with a smile.
Nodding in response, Derrick then turned to look at Aiden before cordially asking, âSpeaking of which, who might this be?â
âAh, I go by Aiden Baker, and Iâm Geraldâs friend!â replied Aiden as he outstretched his hand, his earlier bad mood now completely gone due to Derrickâs enthusiasm.
âAny friend of Geraldâs is a friend of mine! Speaking of which, take my name card. If you ever face any issues in Japan in the future, just give me a ring and Iâll see to it!â replied Derrick as he shook Aidenâs hand before handing him a card.
âIâll keep that in mind,â replied Aiden as he slipped the card into his pocket.
âGlad to hear that! Either way, I hope you two are hungry since Iâm about to order some food! Donât worry, weâll be eating in my office! Also, between you and me, I still prefer Weston dishes even though Iâve been living here all these years,â said Derrick as he pressed a button on his desk.
Shortly after, a secretary entered the room before asking, âYou called, Chairman Zima?â
âIndeed. Order the tastiest dishes you can think of and bring a bottle of good wine over too! Be snappy about it!â replied Derrick, prompting his secretary to nod before quickly leaving.
With that out of the way, Derrick then looked at Gerald before saying, âNow then⦠Since you came here out of the blue, Iâm assuming you need help with something?â
âBingo,â replied Gerald.
âIâm all ears! Iâve already made a number of connections within Japan in the past few years, so Iâm sure Iâll be able to help!â declared Derrick who knew that he wouldnât be enjoying all this glory had Gerald not saved him back then. Hell, he couldâve died if Gerald hadnât stepped in!
âIâm sure you can. Before anything else, do you know about the Futabas?â asked Gerald.
âThey used to be a relatively strong family here, right? In fact, I think Iâve even cooperated with them before in previous years before their business started plummeting. Thatâs the extent of what I know about themâ¦â muttered Derrick after thinking about it for a while.
