Chapter 363
The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 363
A white color Audi A4L stopped in front of them and rolled down the window, and a fashionable young man got out of the car.
âJayce! Youâre finally here! Where are your friends?â
âI asked them to go and book a hotel first. After picking up Mrs. Leny, we could bring her to the hotel to freshen up and have lunch there. After that, weâll go out to play!â
As Jayce was talking, he noticed Alice and Jacelyn standing behind Hayley.
âHey, pretty! I bet you girls are Hayleyâs friends, right? How are you guys going?â Jayce asked.
âWe were just talking about it just now. Harper doesnât have a car, so they were planning to pick up Hayleyâs mum with an Uber.â May said.
âHow about you girls follow me since my car can still fit in three more passengers. Care to join us, girls?â Jayce only asked because he found Alice and Jacelyn really pretty, and he wanted to please them.
However, before Hayley and the others could say anything, May immediately rejected his offer. âExcuse me, but where will my mum be sitting if the car is full? And donât forget that my other two roommates will be joining us as well!â May was jealous when she saw how Jayce looked at Alice and the others.
âItâs fine, May. Weâll take the Uber!â Hayley did not want to cause any trouble.
âAlright, then! Weâll head over first, so itâll be fine if you guys are slightly late. Then, weâll all head to the hotel that Jayce has booked, and we can have lunch over there. Since there are quite a number of us, I say we should split the bill. Is that okay?â May said.
âSure!â Hayley nodded.
May waited for her two roommates to arrive before they left.
Meanwhile, Gerald and the rest waited until their Uber arrived and then headed to the station.
âLook at her! Sheâs so proud just because her boyfriend is driving an Audi A4L. She doesnât know that all we need is a phone call from Alice and Silas would be here at any minute!â Jacelyn huffed.
âJacelyn, what are you talking about?! Iâve not been in contact with Silas for so long!â Alice glanced at Gerald as she replied.
âI heard that Mayberry Commercial Group was sold shortly after Silasâ father came. Itâs such a shame that a big company like that is gone in no time! However, if Silas were here, Iâm pretty sure it would shut this Jayce and May up!â Jacelyn said.
Whatever Jacelyn had said was one of the reasons why Alice was ignoring Gerald.
Everyone knew that Mayberry Commercial Group belonged to Mr. Crawford. Even though she was not sure if Gerald was truly Mr. Crawford, she really wanted him.
Except, after what had happened with Mayberry Commercial Group, Alice did not really believe that Gerald was Mr. Crawford, hence, she was never really committed to it.
Still, Alice cared about her impression a lot when she was around Gerald. She was never really in touch with Silas anymore, but after what Jacelyn had said, she was afraid that Gerald might get the wrong idea.
No matter what it was, Gerald was still rich. It was just that he did not really care much about anything, and he did not speak much either.
They all reached the station at about ten oâclock in the morning.
âHey, Mrs. Ians! I heard from May that Hayley has a boyfriend too, right? Iâm sorry I didnât get to ask this on the train just now. Anyway, what does his family do? Is he rich?â
Two good-looking housewives walked out of the train station. They were both in their early forties but still looked as though they were thirty years old.
âIâm not sure either. Hayley didnât tell me much, and that is why Iâm here! But I believe it canât be too bad. After all, Hayleyâs grades have been really good!â Hayleyâs mother said.
Mayâs mother was not very happy. Even though May was as pretty as Hayley, Hayley was really good with her studies and had a great personality.
Hayley was, in fact, much more decent than her own daughter, which meant that her boyfriend must be as good as her too.
