The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 333
Gerald really couldnât be bothered about Zackâs methods of dealing with the matter.
He rested early that night.
Though it was raining heavily when he awoke, Gerald rushed to school anyway. After all, his homework review was important as well.
As per usual, his driver dropped him off at the school gates and Gerald walked into the school with an umbrella in hand.
All of a sudden, Gerald heard a loud scream.
When he turned to look at the source of the sound, he saw a girl in a white dress who seemed to have sprained her ankle. She held an umbrella in one hand while her other held onto her ankle. Gerald deduced that she must have sprained her ankle while she was opening her umbrella.
Since she could hardly walk properly at that moment, it seemed that the sprain was a severe one.
Gerald found himself walking toward her under his umbrella. âAre you alright?â
âIt hurts!â cried the girl as she raised her head to look at him. Her eyes were all teary.
Gerald was slightly taken aback when he saw her face. âItâs you?â
The girl showed obvious surprise on her face as well.
This wasnât just any random person. She was the good-natured girl who had previously sat next to Gerald when he was studying in the library a while back.
The memory of the event embarrassed Gerald.
Not only did he have a nosebleed back then, but he had also sneezed. What an embarrassing thing to remember!
It was unexpected, to say the least, for him to encounter her today while returning to school this early in the morning!
âYes, itâs been a while⦠I had initially planned to call a cab to go out and get some materials. Thinking back, perhaps I was walking a bit too hastily!â said the girl as her cheeks flushed slightly red. It was an obvious sign that she remembered what had previously happened in the library.
âWith this heavy rain, it would be best if you postponed that plan for now. Iâll help you get to the infirmary,â replied Gerald.
He hadnât forgotten the fact that she had handed him a tissue during his embarrassing plight back then.
Even though they were still pretty much strangers at this point, he still felt obligated to help her.
After all, the girl was someone good-natured and was beautiful to boot.
If he were to ignore and just leave her there, his guilt would surely come back to bite later.
Though she hesitated at first, she eventually nodded. The pain was too overbearing for her.
Even with Geraldâs help, she still found difficulty walking.
In the end, Gerald resorted to carrying her on his back. Fortunately, the girl had sensed that Gerald bore no ill intentions, even from when they had first encountered in the library. Therefore, she didnât try to resist at all and simply allowed Gerald to carry her.
She held on to her umbrella as they walked toward the infirmary.
Gerald couldnât help but blush slightly as his nose caught the scent of her body.
However, he already had Mila so why on earth was he still overthinking the situation?
Gerald shook his head slightly to clear his mind before starting to walk faster.
Beep, beep!
A Mercedes Benz G500 honked as it passed by Gerald and the girl.
âHey there beauty! Itâs raining heavily so why donât you get in my car? Iâll drop you off wherever youâre headed to!â
The shout came from a well-dressed teen who had rolled down the carâs window.
Gerald couldnât help but stop in his tracks when he heard the teenâs words.
In his mind, Gerald knew that all beautiful girls loved luxury cars.
However, she hardly even looked at the driver.
Instead, she pinched Geraldâs shoulder lightly. âDonât just stop here! Iâm dying from the pain!â
âOh! Right!â
Gerald nodded before starting to walk hurriedly again. It seemed that this girl was different from the others he had encountered before.
âD*mn it! If I had known sheâd be here I would have come a bit earlier! Itâs such a shame! That girlâs so beautiful!â
The boy sighed loudly before slamming his hand against the steering wheel as he watched Gerald slowly walk away with the beauty still clinging on to his back.
Fortunately, the infirmary wasnât too far away. Once they arrived, a doctor came over immediately to check on her injury.
Knowing that she would be taken care of by the doctor, Gerald turned to leave.
âWait! Whatâs your name? Mine is Giya,â shouted the girl toward his back.
âMineâs Gerald!â
âI see! Thank you so much for today. Youâve saved me from a world of pain. I donât know how I would have managed to return with that sprained ankle! Also, I noticed that youâre holding on to a book. Are you possibly headed to the library to study?â
âAs a matter of fact, I am,â replied Gerald as he nodded.
