The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 440
He made the promise without even the slightest hesitation.
It was much better than telling Felicity that he was actually Ordinary Man.
But now wasnât the time for that. Now was the time for Felicity to ask her fans to look for Giya.
After he descended the stairs, the other could see that Gerald clearly had something weighing on his mind.
As he paced around slowly, both Felicia and Quade followed closely behind him.
Felicia kept alternating between poking Quade and nudging her head toward Geraldâs back. It was clear that Quade wanted to say something to Gerald.
Quade, however, definitely looked like he didnât dare to go up to Gerald.
âQuade, itâs really no big deal. Go ahead and talk to Gerald about it!â said Tammy as she sighed, looking at the two. She couldnât bear seeing them act so sneakily behind Gerald anymore.
Gerald heard his name being called and he turned around. Behind him, he saw Felicia poking Quade while both of them stared back.
Gerald was slightly confused at the scene but he shook his head before looking at Quade and asking, âWhatâs the matter?â
Quade coughed while adjusting his glasses. âI need your help with something, but Iâm not sure if youâll be willing to lend a handâ¦â
Initially, Quade had looked down on Gerald but when he saw that he drove a Mercedes-Benz G-Class, he was shocked.
âGo onâ¦â
âWell, my elder sister works in a leasing company. She needs to lease a Mercedes-Benz G-Class this month though she hasnât had any luck getting her hands on one yet⦠If she fails to hit her target this month she might get fired. You may already have guessed by now, but could you please lease it to my sisterâs company for three days? Just three days. My sister will definitely pay you the leasing fee!â said Quade.
Gerald understood Quadeâs situation.
Some companies specialized in stuff like that. People would sign leases for cars for different reasons such as shooting for movies.
Once the lease was signed, if anything happened to the car, the leaser would not be held responsible for it. The leaser didnât have to bother about all the expenses either. The car would just be leased for a few days and they could earn three thousand dollars without needing to do anything else.
âIf thatâs the case, sure. Iâll lease it to her,â said Gerald as he smiled faintly.
Gerald found no reason to decline. Quade had a hand in helping Gerald find Giya too after all.
What more, Gerald approved of him, seeing how much he cared for his sister. Gerald could understand his worries since he had a sister himself.
If Geraldâs sister was ever in any trouble, Gerald would rush over to help her without the slightest fear or hesitation.
âThank you, Gerald! Iâll call my sister now to tell her the good news! Sheâll be coming over soon with a contract for you to sign!â said Quade excitedly.
Soon after, his sister arrived and the contract was signed. Once that was done, Tammy and the others went home to try getting their connections to help resolve the issue of Giyaâs disappearance.
Gerald called Zack up himself along with a few others.
They needed to find something. Anything that could give a clue as to where Giyaâs whereabouts was.
Otherwise, Gerald knew that he would not be able to rest easy for the rest of his life.
Night came soon enough.
Gerald was exhausted and hungry after doing all that he could the entire day.
He retreated for the moment to a restaurant to fill his belly up before resuming the search.
âWhat do you mean? Do you think Iâm unnecessary? Am I that bad?â
While he was having his meal, Gerald suddenly heard arguing coming from a dining table not too far from his.
There were voices of two women and a man.
All three voices came from the same dining table. It seemed that the man had been caught red-handed cheating with another woman. The manâs original lover was the one doing most of the shouting as the cheating duo remained silent.
âI treated you so well! What do I lack that she has? You loved me before this⦠Do you not anymore?
Why do you want to be with her?â The woman continued shouting at them.
This sort of scene wasnât uncommon. Gerald really didnât need to look at them at all.
However, he had glanced up out of curiosity since they were being so noisy. This resulted in his gaze being fixed upon the trio.
The shouting woman turned out to be Lilian.
As for the pair who had been caught cheating, they were none other than Hayward and Sharon.
Turning back the clock to the day of the class gathering, Gerald remembered hearing from Waylon that Sharon was now Haywardâs girlfriend.
Lilian must have been anxious all this time since she liked Hayward too.
A slap was heard, and the shouting ceased.
The recipient of the slap was Lilian.
Sharon had stood up, a cold expression on her face. âLilian, thatâs enough. Are you out of your mind?â
