Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 434
The question had come from Rae.
âWhat did you say? Heâs driving a Mercedes-Benz G-Class?â said Waylon, shocked.
Thinking back, Gerald had simply smiled calmly at the side while Waylon was showing off his car earlier.
He had thought that it was jealousy, but Gerald was just having fun looking at the fool showing his Audi A4L car off! With the current price of a Mercedes-Benz G-Class, that amount of money could easily buy eight or nine Audi A4L cars!
âAs I said before, I won it as a prize! Itâs just a vehicle to help me get around,â said Gerald calmly as he smiled.
He then put the jug down and left the ward.
Xella had not said anything, but she now respected Gerald more than she ever had.
He had simply left the ward once the issues had been resolved without expecting any appreciation at all.
In her mind, she knew that even though she had constantly thought that others had been helping her, Gerald didnât care as long as there were no more issues.
Even by the time Gerald had gotten into his car, his classmates had not moved an inch. They were still staring at each other in shock that he had just left like that.
While Gerald drove on, his phone began to ring.
It surprised him slightly that the caller was Tammy but he still picked up.
âGerald, please advise Giya to come home. Mr. Quarringtonâs been extremely anxious. Heâs tried to call Giya several times now but her phoneâs probably been switched off. She isnât even replying to any of my messages anymore! Please advise her, Iâll meet up with her this afternoon!â said Tammy.
Hearing that, Gerald was momentarily stunned.
He immediately stopped his car at the side of the road. âWhat? What do you mean heâs worried? Hasnât Giya gone home?â
He knew very well that Giya had said that she would return home before she left. Gerald hadnât even contacted her at all since then.
He had thought that it was fine just ending it like that.
After all, he couldnât let her stay, otherwise it would only increase the chances of Mila misunderstanding in the future.
Where had she gone? And why couldnât anyone contact Giya now?
ââ¦Eh? What? What do you mean by that? I was still able to contact her yesterday before I found out that I couldnât even reach her anymore today. She had put on a great show and now her father is truly scared. Please donât pretend anymore, her dad isnât at my home. Pass the phone to Giya now!â said Tammy.
She wanted to think that Gerald was only pretending.
âTammy, Iâm dead serious. Donât scare me please. You left my place three days ago and the morning after that, Giya had ridden a car back to Mayberry. She said that she was going to get engaged with Yacob the moment she returned home.â
Gerald dabbed his sleeve against his forehead as cold sweat began to form.
He explained to Tammy everything that had happened the day Giya had left.
âD*mn it! Even if thatâs the case, we should still be able to reach her but we canât! Did she really tell you that she was going to be engaged with Yacob?â
âWho else could it be?â
âIâm just going to say this. The person she was supposed to get engaged with isnât Yacob. Itâs a man from Yanken known only by others as Mr. Long. However, Giya doesnât want to be with him so she ran away from home. I suspect that she went to you with several excuses in mind just in case you wouldnât take her in! Oh, Giya⦠Now Iâm just worried that something has happened to her!â cried out Tammy in a worried voice.
After sharing whatever they knew about the situation, Gerald hung up before immediately trying to call Giya.
However, it was true. Her phone had indeed been turned off.
He tried contacting her through other social media as well but the result was the same.
âF*cking hell! What happened, Giya!â
âEven though her disappearance isnât directly related to me, the last place she was seen at was still my place!â
Gerald was deeply upset and he was filled with self-reproach.
âIf I hadnât said those things Giya may not have left in the first placeâ¦â
âIf only I had given her a call after she had left, I might still know where she is now.â
âBut itâs too late for that. I wouldnât have been able to anticipate this happening anyway. Somethingâs happened to Giya and I need to find her immediately.â
âTammy had also said that she thought Giya was still together with me.â
Gerald scratched his head in frustration. In his mind, there were countless possibilities of things that could have happened to her. Each possibility he thought of only made him even more frightened than the previous one.
He smacked his steering wheel hard to calm himself down a little.
Shaking his head, he then turned the car around immediately.
He was now returning to Mayberryâ¦
