Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 460
Gerald felt good about it, but Lilian didnât resent Hayward at all.
âGerald, this car mustâve cost a bomb, right? Itâs quite a sight!â
Liam walked toward them and smiled at Gerald.
No matter how much the rest mocked him, Liam knew that being friends with him would be advantageous since he personally knew Elena and drove such a luxurious car.
âAbout 22,000 dollars!â Gerald replied, smiling politely.
They both shook hands.
Meanwhile, Liamâs phone rang.
âDad? Okay, Iâll go back now!â
Liam hung up his phone. âHey, Gerald. Iâll have to leave now; itâs really nice meeting you! Iâm so sorry, Douglas and Leila, something came up, and I canât take you guys home.â
âHuh?â Leila was stunned.
They were supposed to hitch a ride from Liam back home since Douglas did not dare drive his car.
Meanwhile, Gerald had already started his car engine, and Lilian was sitting next to him.
Douglas then turned to Leila and asked. âLeila, why not we take an Uber?â
âUber? Look at you, is taking an Uber all you know? You bought a car, and you donât even drive it, and now Iâve got to take the Uber!â Leila snapped, pisssed.
âIâll give you guys a ride to the station!â Gerald smiled and beckoned them over.
Gerald just felt that it was not right to leave them there like that.
Leila glanced at Gerald hesitantly and then hopped into the car. She stole a peek towards Lilian and felt a pang of jealousy. She wanted the co-pilot seat to be hers.
âDamn it!â Douglas cursed under his breath.
âWhat do you think youâre doing?â Gerald eyed Douglas.
âWhat do you mean? Iâm getting into the car!â
âWhen I said them, I meant both the ladies. Not you, Douglas. And the money you owed me, donât forget to pay up!â Gerald locked the door.
The last time Gerald tried to help him, he got insulted in return, and this time around, he was definitely not going to offer help again.
As she watched them drive off, Sharon was left in a confused state.
Gerald cared about her a lot back in high school. Even when she forgot to take her meals while busy studying, he would brave the rain just to buy her food. Gerald always saw her differently.
Even after three years, despite what she did to him, he still looked at her the same way. But this time, Gerald just grew so cold. He completely ignored her, and she was not too used to it. He did not even look at her when he took the contract from her.
After dropping them off at the station, Gerald booked a hotel room to rest for the evening.
That night, Gerald received a call from his family. It was a classified call that only his family members knew of. Gerald immediately picked up when he realized who the caller was.
